Prêt à Boire Rosé Blend 2016

The vintner actually recommends serving this rose at room temp. Perhaps because it is not as sweet as your typical rose. — 7 years ago

Rochioli

Estate Grown Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2008

I knew this would be special from the moment I eyed it in the legendary K&L Wines web catalogue, and it does not disappoint. Pouring it out, its age is apparent in the colour, ruby red edging into brown. On the nose, it is a sensory overload of summer, bright sunlight shining on wild berries, the cassis note is particularly apparent. Tasting it, the nine years it’s had to integrate make it difficult to call out any individual characteristics, so well integrated and fully in harmony it has become. Reminds me of another old RRV pinot I’ve had the luck to sample, the Merry Edwards - in each case, there is some kind of wild campfire hedonism that seems to drive the chase. My friend tells me that Russian River Valley makes great wines because it’s not about the farmers, it’s about the hippies obsessed with flavour; this bottle brings me around to his way of thinking. — 7 years ago

I Vigneri di Salvo Foti

Vinupetra Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese Blend 2006

Man oh man - one of the best Etna Rossos I have had. Maybe it's the NerMasc to NerCap to Alicante ratio, or the hands of legendary vintner Salvo Foti, but this wine brings terroir in a glass. It's the bees knees. — 8 years ago
