Old vine #semillon from #margaretriver by #mosswood #2007 ; 14%, AUD 35; excellent; gleaming green colour, delicious pink grapefruit type aged fruit on the power end. — 9 years ago
Chunky #coonawarra #cabernet with plenty of flavour; juicy and a backbone of tannins complete the deal #koonara #thetemptress 2010 AUD 25 — 9 years ago
Famous #australian #riesling from the #clarevalley made by #accolade company #leasingham . From the hot season of #2003 though mot looking shabby; pale gold yes; spice and restraint not strong kero or honey; backward a little; evolving fruit; blessed by screwcap; 12.5%. — 8 years ago
Quite amazing to see 13 year-old budget wine hold on so long; blame the screwcap and absence of cork; pristine kero- style riesling; fatter than its equivalent from Clare; expect a blend of warmer Barossa, Clare and Eden Valley, tad sweet but now called richness; green-gold-yellow; looks old tastes honied; brulee and lime juice; full- bodied riesling from its Barossa roots; venerable like the 80 odd year-old man its named after-Wolfgang. 11.5% AUD 10; #riesling #southaustralia #wolfblass #2003 — 9 years ago
Great day with #Albiera #Antinori tasting 2013, 2010, 2007, 2005, 2001 & #1997 #tignanello from #chianticlassico near #siena and #florence ; #80% #sangiovese at #negociants #workingwithwine #australia ; go to #tuscany with #uncorkedandcultivated #wineandfoodtours #italy2016 — 8 years ago
Excellent aged, cool region #victorian #chardonnay from #curlyflat #aussie #2008 #12.8% AUD 45 — 9 years ago
Wine supposedly recommended for 3-5 yrs age, went 10! Still young. #capementelle #margaretriver #chardonnay #2006 ; wheaten style; 13.5%, AUD 33. — 9 years ago
A rare old drop of sticky #rosemountestate then Bob Oatley-owned; #sémillon #botrytis #1984 #reserve ; 12.8%; #upperhuntervalley ; wine correct, honied, nougat, rarely occurs, now drying; fullly mature; odd wine to acquire from a previous employee. — 9 years ago
