My, is this gorgeous. Reads very much like a Chinon on the nose and makes an excellent case for the variety in Stellenbosch. But as intellectually satisfying as it is, it’s a sheer pleasure to drink. — 7 years ago
So subtle - dried orange peel, potpourri and creamed corn - a delight, thank Hugh — 7 years ago

V13. Delicious. Soft cedar nose. Rich, juicy black currant fruit . Smooth, zippy, mocha and earth finish. Perfect food wine. — 7 years ago
This lovely Siduri Pinot Noir is very dark-colored, big, rich, old vine mountain fruit (my recollection is that this is an old “head-pruned” Pinot vineyard, at elevation??), I can see criticism that it’s not really “Pinot Noir-like”, but like the older St. Innocent “Freedom Hill” Pinot Noirs, these wines last a long time, so even if it’s too “big”, it’s rich, intense and complex!! But, you wouldn’t ever guess, “blind”, that this was a red Burgundy. I happen to like it, as it seems youthful and fresh, with further aging potential. — 7 months ago
Classic Mosel Riesling, tart, noticable mineral flavour with a round finish. I have enjoyed it wirh Pastrami sandwiches asxwell as cheese dishes such as cheese fondue — 7 years ago
Dark garnet red with a ruby hue. Aged characteristics on the nose with some tobacco leaves, anise, damp leaves and dark berries. Medium tannins (6/10) and full bodied. Quite earthy on the palate with some dried cherries, cigar box and some light leather. Long finish with solid acidity. Drink till 2023. — 8 years ago

2020 vintage, very delicate aromas of fruit and classic Pinot earthy musk on the nose, slight hints of leather. Very well balanced and with a subtle finish. Continued to open up after the first hour. Paired extremely well with filet mignon. For $35, I would partake in this again. — 2 months ago
