Chatham Vineyards

Church Creek Steel Chardonnay 2022

Well balanced, hints of under-ripe fruit — maybe melon and pear. Tastes like Chardonnay grape. Finish is interesting and slightly metallic. Quite nice, an unexpected surprise. — 3 months ago

Lagavulin Distillery

Aged 16 Years Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 1816

This is a great tipple as the weather cools down in the Southern Hemisphere. From Islay with plenty of peat and smokiness. A maritime seaweed note. Some say Laphroaig is even more peaty but for me, the jury is still out on that one. — 7 months ago

Absolutely John. Particularly if you like your Single Malts smoky and peaty which I do.

Barboursville Vineyards

Reserve Virginia Nebbiolo 2020

From my birth state, still home at heart, Virginia, Barboursville Vineyards delivers with its Nebbiolo. Medium red in color pales to a pink on the rim--slightly more colorized than Piedmonte counterparts. On the nose are hints of kerosene (believe it), mint, and cherry. Medium plus acidity, medium plus alcohol (a bit hot on the tongue), and medium bodied. Red cherry and dried herbs on the plate. Drying, but pleasant tannins. This easily compares to a Langhe Nebbiolo of equal age. It would be interesting to taste older vintages. Very proud!!!
