Ironclad Waiheke Island Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2010

Deep purple colour and lovely inviting wild blackcurrant bouquet. Very pleasant blackberry and plum flavour, the alcohol level not extreme but at a noticeable level though. Bought from selfridges. — 11 years ago

Equine Embrace 'A Tribute To War Horse' Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Screwtop, so not for keeping ? Fairly light on the nose, intriguing, cucumber freshness, cardammon and light milk coffee aroma, complex at 14,5 % alc., appealing multi-layered melange (cab franc based with petit verdot, merlot and malbec) , fruity with a fairly spicy coffee flavour with herbal undertones, distinct tannins, youngish like a shiraz. VERY nice ! — 11 years ago

Many top estates are using screwcaps on their best wines , after testing over time they are a perfect closure . Cheers

Valhalla Chardonnay 2013

Mid gold, oaky, white peach, dry, bright acidity with ripe stone fruit with grapefruit and passion fruit. Deep, long finish.

Bellerophon Syrah Viognier 2012

Needs to open up, but great potential here. Not bad for a cool summer evening with crispy fried hogs head. — 11 years ago

"Sauvs" are good, but very disappointingly Cloudy Bay was the best we had after touring all over Marlborough. After much difficulty got hold ifs 2001 Sauvignon Blanc from Framingham. Extremely interesting. Unlike Sancerre, no one here has yet realized the potential of aging these wines. Could make serious money doing this, as they are all sold fresh for very little money.
