Xisto Ilimitado Douro Red Blend 2019

Juicy red. I need to start describing the wines before drinking the whole bottle and taking a photo 3 days later. Thanks Carson at Lorne Wine!! — 3 years ago

Yabby Lake Vineyard

Single Vineyard Morning Peninsula Chardonnay 2010

Mid Lemon in colour. Funky leesy notes with mineral and a touch of butterscotch. Previous sulphidic notes have diminished somewhat. A lot of winemaking on show here - this wine has been “worked “, but all to the good. The palate shows Lemon butter with under ripe stone fruit. Some creaminess from the oak and the winemaking. Medium plus intensity. Holding up easily - impressive at 10 years of age. Burgundian traits. Another very good wine from Tom Carson who is also in demand at Wine Shows for his excellent palate. — 4 years ago

August Recher Pinot Noir 2016

9.3

...to the "pros", as Carson used to say to Ed... "Don't try that with me Bozo"...this is another great Mueller Pinot, Russian River. 2016 was a good year for August Recher, another single vineyard. Great nose balance legs fruit fruit mouthful succulent palate rich...typical of the better (but still not best) Mueller's. — 5 years ago

Serrat

Close Planted Yarra Valley Chardonnay 2016

Pale to mid Lemon in colour. Funky leesy struck match sulphidic notes together with grapefruit, white peach. Barrel ferment characters with lees stirring I would guess. Slightly “worked”. A light to medium weight palate showing grapefruit and mild stone fruit notes. Some good winemaking on show here from an excellent winemaker in Tom Carson. Serrat is the personal venture of Tom and his French wife, Nadege. His main job is chief winemaker for the highly credentialed Mornington Peninsula winery, Yabby Lake. — 3 years ago

Serrat

Fourre-Tout Yarra Valley Barbera Blend 2017

Made by Tom Carson of Yabby Lake fame in the Mornington Peninsula. Tom is also a respected Show Judge in demand around Australia. Serrat is his personal label with French wife, Nadege. They also import a range of Burgundies. “Fourre Tout”- the English translation meaning “Catch All”. This is a field blend of Barbera, Malbec, Grenache, Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo. Mid Ruby in colour. Plummy aromas with black and red fruits. Strangely can see the spicy Malbec on the nose more than the other varieties. I was expecting this to be a more frivolous red than it turned out to be. This had good structure and tannins - would benefit from a few years in the cellar. Went well with Chicken Pie. Footnote: Serrat is a Catalan word meaning High Density Planting. Serrat has 8000 vines per Hectare producing less than a bottle per vine. Next in a few years. — 4 years ago

Domaine Guiberteau

Brézé Saumur Chenin Blanc 2013

Bracing lip suckering bright acidity with a side of farmhouse funk, what’s not to love? With some spicy Korean style mackerel and some verse by Anne Carson on the side - it’s even better. — 3 years ago

La Grande Pièce Vin Rouge Red Blend 2017

This bad boy was like a versatile NFL running back - weighty up front but surprisingly light and dynamic on its feet, and the moves for a lingering finish - the Elroy Carson type @Scott Petrus - oh yeah it’s 100% Grolleau from two Japanese wine makers in the Loire. — 4 years ago

Azienda Agricola Montevetrano

Montevetrano di Silvia Imparato 2011

Apparently this dynamic. blend of Aglianico, Cab, and Merlot was the Cats Pajamas in the 90s when Super Tuscans were all the rage - this is a big wine with spicy leather and firm tannins, will decant longer next time, may be a wedding gift @Carson — 7 years ago

Tenuta del Portale

Riserva Aglianico del Vulture

A wine @Carson would approve of. Cherry and spice, a good amount of spice. Subtle coffee undertones. This wine has a long velvety finish. — 8 years ago
