9.0

I’d forgotten how very yummy Amarone was. Italian restaurant in Rome - they didn’t have the primitivo I wanted so tried this Classico 2020 instead. Very quaffable, rich notes went well with my lasagna. Bit like a warm hug and relatively low tannins. Now to see if I can find anything similar back in UK. — 6 days ago

Stumbled upon this almost by mistake whilst drinking the other Bollinger (La Grande Annee 2015) on a BA F flight. I must admit I don’t think I’ve had a BdN before (plenty of BdBs though). And as a big Pinot Noir fan, I had to try it and was@not disappointed. Loved it, more than the vintage one if I’m honest. Felt it had a bit more structure/depth. Now looking around to see if I can find a bottle (around £98) but it’s pretty limited. — 2 months ago

Nice. Think I bought from W for £11.19 (on offer?) many years ago (5?). Just decided to drink tonight, and really pleased. I’d buy again! — 4 months ago

On Qatar business flight Jan 2025. Excellent Bordeaux. Wouldn’t usually have tried it but the purser suggested it. I had it on a following flight as well. — 7 days ago

Who have thought England had produced a desert wine, and especially from a fairly new Norfolk vineyard. Tried at Redcoates. Not overly sweet, but fragrant, tangerine flavours with pleasant last. Just different! — a month ago

Now that was lovely! It’s been in my little wine fridge (not turned on as more storage) for quite a few years. Bought from Sainsbury’s £7.50 (I write this on the label to remember). Very drinkable but good depth. Only split over 2 nights not the normal 3 when I open a bottle. Will have to find it again. Great value! 2018 vintage. — 4 months ago

A surprise buy from Waitrose. Nice smooth and light, but with enough body to drink with food. I don’t usually buy German wines but after tasting Spatzburgen I thought I’d try. On offer at £8.50 from £11. I’d buy again. — 9 days ago

Bought from whole foods Alexandria $24.99 to take to a friends for dinner. It was pleasant enough, but I was a tad disappointed that it didn’t have more depth of flavour. I’d wish I’d bough the NZ Central otago one instead now. — 8 months ago
