Point Rouge Chardonnay 2008
Magnum 2008 Peter Michael Point Rouge Chardonnay. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Super. Loved especially at Susie and Lydia- the Chardonnay lovers. Not overly oaky- just rich and oaky enough to know it's a CA Chardonnay, but not so much that it's buttery and too rich in oakiness. Enjoyed. — 9 years ago

Domaine Billaud-Simon
Les Blanchots Vieilles Vignes Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2011
Three Grand Cru's BOOM! Just buy the one at the top! When you're talking $120 for the cheapest and $140 for the most expensive you may as well! The Blanchots steps it up a notch and punches above it's $ weight compared to the other two GC's. Poise, seamless integration with deceptively powerful lingering fruit separate it from the others. The Vaudésir is perhaps the most different in style of all the wines. Much fuller and rounder with a hint of overt oak, not in a bad way. Similar to the difference between Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligy-Montrachet. Ageing potential of Chablis is insane. When I was working at Yarra Yering on the naughties we were buying 1970's GC Chablis by Testut & Frére by the wheelbarrow for less than a price of couple of bottles of Yellow Tail. Hoovered it all now, insanely delicious as 30 year old wine. The lower alcohol, fresher, acid driven styles of Chardonnay being made in Australia today make it a much smaller leap to the wines of Chablis. One worth experimenting with!

Proprietà Fanetti
Tenuta S Agnese Riserva Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2010
Very good. Dried fruit in the aromas, especially cherries, herbs, a bit of wood. Firm, hard edged palate that finishes long but clean. 2010 was so good in so many places! — 9 years ago

Launois Père et Fils
Special Club Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay 2005
Jeff G's birthday mag after the roll downs were pulled at K&L. From vines planted in the 1950's in Cramant & Oiry, still the source of cuttings for Launois' massal selections. This is a very rich, creamy BDB that goes deep on minerality, even in a fatter vintage. — 11 years ago

Wynns Coonawarra Estate
Black Label Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 1972
41 years of patience, rewarded with some #FilthyGoodVino! Exceptional wine, elegance & sophistication. Wynns Black Label Cabernet from the 1970's are sensational. Bit of a hiccup in the 80's. Intoxicating vino, plenty of Yumminess, blossomed over a couple of hours! 2 bottle left! — 12 years ago
Galić
Chardonnay 2010
Postoji psihografski termin "Chardonnay girls" koji označava mlade, uspješne i samosvjesne žene koje na svojim druženjima prakticiraju piti vino koje se uklapa u njihov image i percepciju samih sebe. Pobliže objašnjeno, to su Sex & City cure. Što bi značilo da je Chardonnay sorta koju vole žene. Točno? Hm... Chardonnay je k tome i najrasprostranjenija svjetska sorta vina a moram priznat da se i meni sviđa.A ovaj je božanstven. Tako fino izbalansirano, mekano i pitko vino, sa primjesama vanilije, mineralno... ma super. Zasjenilo je sve Chardonnaye koje sam probao i kojih se mogu sjetiti, Galićev mi je ostao u vrlo jasnom sjećanju i na mojoj je listi za ponovnu kupnju. Nije jeftin ali svakako vrijedi tih 10 EUR-a, u lijepoj boci, lijepe etikete. Topla preporuka ne samo za Chardonnay girls već i za nas ostale smrtnike, pa čak i Plavac boyse (to je izmišljeni termin, nema veze s nikakvom psihografijom). Mislim da ću istražiti sva Galićeva vina uskoro. — 13 years ago

2007 Mauro VS Vino de la Terra Tempranillo. Dinner at Ch Ven w J&L B and J&J D. Huge wine with tons of dark fruit- plum, blackberry- and even chocolate and leather. Really enjoyed. We all would have guessed it was a Cal Cab had we not known. — 9 years ago
