Bohème Wines

English Hill Vineyard Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2013

A lovely strawberry red color which leads to an enticing taste presenting floral and strawberries characteristics and underlying cigar and earthiness. A complex and delightful Pinot. — 8 years ago

Riquewihr Lost Slough Vineyards Gewürztraminer 2015

The 2015, the other half of the night's comparison. Less subtle, more floral. Jasmine, rose petal, honey. All powerful, but all a bit separate and distinct. I think this could lie down for a good while. Will be pleased to try another bottle in a few years. — 8 years ago

Michael Faraday Matthiasson Family Vineyards Chardonnay 2010

Another Chard made in an oxidative style. Loved this two years ago, but this had more baked apple and less verve. — 8 years ago

Hattingley Valley

Classic Reserve English Sparkling Pinot Noir Blend

Founded in 2008 by Simon and Nicola Robinson, Hattingley Valley is located in Hampshire, England and their estate vineyard is set on chalky soils. The ‘Classic Reserve’ is a blend of several vintage wines (18% reserve wines) and opens with biscuit aromas with lemon zest and shades of salted Marcona almond. The palate unveils a lovely mouthfeel as brisk acidity and salinity races through pear, wet stone and kumquat flavors. Drink 2019-2025- 90

Classic Cuvée Sparkling White Blend

Had been wanting to try this Cuvée which largely helped put English Sparkling on the map. Good bead with aromas of Apple and light biscuity aromas with good persistence on the palate. Would easily hold its own in French company. One of the 1001 wines. Have not seen it available in Australia as yet but I might have missed it. — 6 years ago

FTP-Z Kirschenmann Ranch Zinfandel 2015

Nimble, funky jaminess - the opposite of what you’d expect of a Cali Zin with almost 14% abv, in the best possible way. Very much in harmony and for my money, Scholium at its accessible best. — 6 years ago
