A little birdie told me today is National Drink Wine Day (as if we needed a reason). I opened this beauty for the occasion. If you like Cali Pinots, this one will knock your socks off. Fantastically fruit forward, but not lightweight---this is a very medium-bodied wine. A hint of spice, a hint of cocoa---would be killer with some dark chocolate. I paired with sea-salted Coastal Cheddar. Stellar stuff. — 9 years ago

Monkey 47 Dry Distiller Gin. Slightly hazy, water white, colourless. Pronounced intensity of perfume, juniper, lingonberry, violets, lavender, orange and grapefruit zest. With water added, more perfume and citrus notes to the fore. Dry on the palate. Warming alcohol, medium body, pronounced flavour intensity. Long finish. Very complex. Outstanding example of a premium gin. — 11 years ago

Very well made Rye. Probably the best I have tried. Delicate yet full of oak. Now I understated what a real Rye tastes like. Perfect for sipping. — 9 years ago
Won the Trophy for Best Shiraz at the National Wine Show 2012. Fruit from the Gundagai region and starting to put this region on the map. Peppery red fruits and starting to develop some leather notes at 7 years. A nice counterpoint to the lush Barossa styles showing the versatility of Shiraz. — 9 years ago
Lots of raspberries and cloves on the nose. The palate adds plums and blueberries with some allspice. Very nice Merlot for National Merlot Day! — 10 years ago
Juniper couched by a mild sweetness. — 11 years ago

Happy National Pinot Noir Day! I am celebrating by opening the 2011 Benton-Lane Estate Grown Pinot Noir Willamette Valley.
On the nose there is nice red fruit, cherry, strawberry, cranberry, menthol, cola and a touch of funk.
The palate shows the red fruit that is on the nose, tart strawberry, cherry, cranberry, cola, clove, wet leaves and a bit of dry soil.
This is a light bodied wine with medium to + acidity and medium fine luscious tannins that coat the tongue which leads to a nice medium to long fruit filled finish. I hope everyone is enjoying Pinot Noir Day as I am and please as always be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 8 years ago
