Morris Of Rutherglen

Domaine & Selection

Meursault Chardonnay 2007

Domaine Coche Dury is arguably the most sought after internationally of white Burgundy domains according to Jasper Morris MW in his tome “Inside Burgundy “. This wine had aromas of Lemon and Citrus flowers. On the palate Lemon juice - lean with mineral and M plus acidity. In hindsight should have left this last one for a few years. A wine of restraint and elegance - a tinge of honey after a while. For the Coche Dury village style only 25% new wood is used. This wine rarity was suggested to me years ago by a former owner of Prince Wine store and Burgundy nut Phillip Rich. Must seek out later vintages. — 8 years ago

Château Teyssier

Montagne Saint-Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2009

Blackberries and cherries, soft tannins and velvety texture. A touch of tar and tobacco come through on the finish. An approachable wine that is ideal with a late night burger following A Night At The Opera (with terrific Mark Morris choreography accompanying Purcell and Britten). — 9 years ago

Beverford Gold Botrytis Sémillon 2010

The spitting image of a Barsac (thinking a light Coutet) but slightly more flabby and with less focused fruit and acidity. Very good though! — 11 years ago

Morris Ranch Vineyard Pinot Noir 2008

Not a Pinot Noir for the newbie. More Burgundy, less California with a bouquet of tarragon, cedar, mint, redwood, black cherries, blood orange peel, green olive, sea spray, and smoked game meats. Intense, complex and a real joy for a lover of earthy, terroir-driven Pinots with a character. — 8 years ago

Bobbie Burns Rutherglen Shiraz 2015

Hello old friend. Smooth and violety with bright red and black fruit! Red licorice, pepper, star anise, all spice. All in all, fucking delicious. A beautiful cool climate Shiraz, not too jammy. I haven't had this in a long time, and it's very welcome in these trying times — 9 years ago

Classic Rutherglen Topaque Muscadelle

Great dessert wine. Very tokaji reminiscent. A bit more burn at the end but tons of caramel. — 9 years ago

Rare Rutherglen Muscat

Amazing concentration - unctuous is the word! A little sweeter than the Rare Topaque but the same essence of fruit cake and raisins. Only 350 half bottles of Rare made each year. A stunning fortified!! — 11 years ago

Briceland Vineyards

Brut Humboldt County Pinot Noir - Chardonnay Blend

Another successful effort from Andrew Morris and Briceland. It leans toward the mineral and saline side of sparkling wine, but with enough clean fruit and body that it isn't too austere. It would be interesting to see how this develops with age, as it seems to have the balance of weight and acidity for at least several years in the cellar. — 11 years ago

Mike, thanks for posting. Glad you liked it. These do hold up for a number of years. In fact, they tend to move pretty slowly.

Rutherglen Muscat

Labeled Old vines Muscat and it is part of the Classic bracket(6 to 10 of age wines used here) of fortified for the area
More powerful than the All Saints one I tried which was rare.
Chambers cellar door is an experience you shouldn't miss out on
They had probably 30/40 wines to taste
Bill Chambers 84yo there pretending he wouldn't know much and at the back empty bottles of La Tache, Yquem, Latour and Maurice O'Shea.
Amazing weekend in Rutherglen ✌️

Rutherglen Muscat

Oh my god! What a wonderful dessert wine.

Burnt orange color with a copper hue and a pale yellow/orange rim. Color in the bottle is more brown than orange.

Immensely strong nose of curry, indian spices (as if you walked into an Indian restaurant), cinnamon, coffee, brandy, orange peel, tumurac, raisins, figs and dates.

Extremely smooth and soft on the palate, with figs, raisins, dates, coffee, sweet candy, citrus and sweet cherries.

Sweet, Full bodied, bold and buttery with great legs. It actually tastes like a liquor would, without the alcohol burn.

Long finish with a trace of brandy.

17% alcohol.

The high acidity makes this sweet dessert wine, very balanced and non cloying.

Poured from a 375ml bottle.

This is a non vintage bottle, but I held it for 8 years in my cellar, and boy does it show...
