Les Tillets Meursault Chardonnay

Tasted in 2016: Medium pale straw color. Pronounced ripe apple notes combined with honeyed melons, calcareous clay, and hints of vanilla. Divine finish that lingers. — 7 years ago

Patrick Brunet

Domaine de Robert Cuvée Tradition Fleurie Gamay 2015

Young, but tasty. Much more full bodied than 2014. Blackberry with a touch of earth. Tannic with a tart acidity. Almost more cranberry on the finish. Think it needs more time, but good. A Gamay that can last!? — 8 years ago

Valmur Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2010

Nice stuff. Reticent on the nose. Good fruit (greengage/ line) and tension. As it warms up a touch of sandalwood. Decent length. Not as complex as the best Valmur but very nice. Drinking well now — 9 years ago

Wynns Coonawarra Estate

Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 1982

Well if the 82 Bordeaux are proving amazing so is this Wynns 82; like it's cousins in the Medoc; very cabernet dominant; winemaker at the time John Wade, now a WA resident; had his first go at small barrique winemaking; now more cleverly used by Sue Hodder; current winemaker; this 13% wine still has the black fruit of correctly ripe cabernet; and the tannin draw and backbone which ticks my boxes; great drink from Coonawarra; wished more from that region show this way; the bar is set; 33 years later; #wynns #coonawarra #cabernet #1982 — 10 years ago

The John Riddoch from the same year was a stunner as well.

Agree; but more oakier than the black; double new oaking has made the Riddoch a trifle oily; whereas the black looks integrated.

Terroir de Courgis Chablis Chardonnay 2013

It has notes of tart fruit and you can really get the mineral taste. This wine was really good with shellfish! — 11 years ago

The Malleea Cabernet-Shiraz Blend 2010

Could possibly be my favourite wine of all time. Glad there are a few more in the cellar! Minty, dark fruit and Coonawarra all over this thing. Dang! — 7 years ago

Fruit of The Sky Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2015

Juicy red berries, eucalyptus, intense floral notes. Super funky, but yet so balanced. Playful. Like butterfies in your belly, it’s like a crazy romance. One of the best I drank in 2017! — 7 years ago

Côte de Bouqueyreaux Bougros Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2014

Very pretty and consistent with the house style. I will say that I did not find it particularly Grand Cru. Never developed much length or complexity, though I can at least say it didn't feel manipulated and was a pure expression of Chablis. But 2014, I hoped for more? — 8 years ago

The nose missleads one with a slight oxidative hint and aromas of cider, fowl and quince, but the palate is fresh and primary with excellent acidity, rich yet soft fruit and a long finish of peach, strawberry and macadamia. — 10 years ago

Cuvée des Forgets Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay 2015

Ken Z
9.1

Drank 7/3/18. Excellent pairing with shrimp in a butter and garlic sauce.

Nose of apple and pears, backed by some earthy elements. On the palate a medium to full mouthfeel yields flavors of green apple and pear backed by some subtle minerality and lemon curd. The flavors last on the finish for around 45 seconds. Very nice. If there is such thing as value in Burgundy, this is it. Enjoyed this more than the last time I drank it, though both were good experiences.

Coonawarra Cabernet-Merlot Blend 2008

Notes of dusty mulberries and blackberries - also olive. A beautiful balancing act of 60%Cabernet Sauvignon and 31%Merlot and 9% Shiraz. Very different to the 1996 Moss Wood had recently because of the Merlot in the blend. Good density and concentration. A class act. — 8 years ago

The Menzies Coonawara Cabernet Sauvignon

I had the 2010 vintage... It was delicious. It needs some air (give or take 30 min) to get rid of a slight musty smell but even immediately after pouring it tastes amazingly balanced! Very round cab sav with tastes of blackberries and cassis and even some cheeky but very welcomed hint of soil. Perfect combination for my lamb. Will definitely try it again! — 10 years ago

Bin 128 Coonawarra Shiraz

Found this hidden on a shelf of a local liquor store. Was worried about how well it has been stored. Well it's in great shape balanced the fruit has been relaxed the spices subdued Im probably not writing the best review but I rarely do. So this is good. And im gonna go rob these shelves of the rest of these bottles. — 10 years ago

Blanchots Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2009

Now here we go. Mouth-coating goodness, a more electric nose of beeswax and minerals, clearly a grand Cru body. Doesn't compare with 2010 but it's nice to see another side. — 10 years ago
