William Downie

Gippsland Pinot Noir 2021

Currently about 5 hours east of Melbourne in east Gippsland tasting this brilliant William Downie Pinot Noir. See several previous Delectable notes from earlier vintages. This wine manages to combine light to medium weight with medium plus intensity. Red fruited with Sous Bois. Downie is a gifted winemaker working in an excellent terroir for Pinot Noir. Would like to have more access to his wines up in Queensland. — 6 months ago

See previous notes: squirreled a bunch of this away from my wine selling days - holding steady, in fact, showed me some really gorgeous mint and some feral meat notes which were in addition to the usual generous fruit & spice. Miles to go — 9 months ago

Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1987

Lovely bottle of the ‘87 opened May 2019. I don’t have much experience with older vintages but seemed to have aged well although maybe a bit past it’s prime. Smooth and balanced with good depth of flavor. Perfect for a rich beef dinner with smashed Yukon golds and gravy. — 5 years ago
