9.0

Had the ‘15 and jumped at chance to taste another vintage and it was equally as enjoyable. Such a delicious, amiable wine, great aromatics out of the gate, very accessible and not showing any signs of age. This shows like a middle of the road Medoc and is balanced & smooth. — 9 months ago

Purcari

Alb de Purcari Chardonnay Blend 2019

Citrusy nose, with some flinty notes, some flowery touches and a bit of vanilla and oak. Great stuff. The palate is very well made with a strong acid drive, a good width with lemon and lemon peel, some soft and nice mouthfeel before a long lemony and vanilla touches that last for a good while. It's a great white! — 10 months ago

Reserve Merlot

Wine #6 on Vinul Moldovei Vol. 1.

Look, it's not really my style, but this wine is delicious. A bit of a manly pussy-drink kind of delicious, but yeah. And believe me, there is no negativity here. Developed bouquet of prune, milk chocolate, cassis jam, blackberry, anise, Dominican cigars, and liquorice. Almost full-bodied, round and perfectly balanced. The aftertaste is persistent and flavourful. It's just the cherry on top of the cake. And I am being subjective here.

Very smooth and silky with fruity aroma. This wine really surprised me. From Costco’s advent. — a year ago
