Damn this is good. Hybrid grapes from Colorado make for bright acidic mix that differentiates this wine from its dry sisters and brothers from Augustina's Winery. — 8 years ago

Montsant at its best. Perez & Barbieri second generation creating a stunning wine made from a blend of Syrah. This is what outstanding Catalonian wine can be. A must have!!!! — 9 years ago

A rare dessert wine I brought back from Switzerland. A passerillé made from Doral (hybrid of Chasselas and Chardonnay). Unctuous on the front and middle but gossamer on the finish. Good balance of acidity/sweetness. Mandarin orange and peach nectar. Touch of bitter orange too. — 11 years ago

Less green pepper nose than Chasing Venus, but better for cooler weather. Fantastic stand alone drink. — 12 years ago

Still quite youthful fruit, but mellowed tannins, with cassis, tarragon and something dark and smoky on the finish. — 9 years ago

One of the better chards I've had from John Hilliard's winery along Route 246 near Lompoc, this has improved considerably with a few years in bottle. Still a bit more oak than is my preference, the wine nevertheless exhibits great balance with classic chardonnary aromatics, a medium-plus bodied mouthfeel, and a lingering finish. I still think his Venus bottlings are better expressions of chardonnay, but this one at ~5 years is drinking well! — 9 years ago

Absolutely stunning! Warm, toasty vanilla notes that wash over your tongue like a wave of flavourful goodness. Impressive body and finish - will make you wonder why you never had it before! — 11 years ago

No tricks, just a big treat on Halloween: the second vintage of Ferrari's Riserva Lunelli, a classic blanc de blancs from Trentino in Northern Italy. Lots of fruit, slightly toasty notes, creamy texture and a long finish. Proof that excellent quality doesn't need sugar to shine - an extra brut venus! — 12 years ago

A journey to the centre of the earth and back, then on to the moon, knocking on the doors of Venus and all the other planets.
Very close to perfection.
Nothing to do with the Tuscan Vin Santo, more like a German TBA. Game of sweetness, freshness, density, viscosity, eternity and who knows what more. A must in your cellar to keep for special occasions.✌️❤️ — 9 years ago
