At the Henschke weekend at Spicers Maryvale. Brief notes. 100% Semillon grown on the Henschke Eden Valley vineyard. From 50 year old vines planted by Stephen’s father, Cyril. Very pale in colour. Aromatics of ripe grapefruit. Granny Smith apple on palate with a slightly soapy texture. Different to Hunter Valley Semillon and more approachable at a young age. — a year ago

2023 Les Granitiers Monterey County Chardonnay
This Chardonnay has nose! Delightful vanilla bean, white florals, and light herbals it's lightly reminiscent of Galliano.
Great acid, freshness, minerality. A real winner. Mr. Smith has done it again.
This is the best chardonnay I've had in 2024. — a year ago
Tropical fruit (banana, pineapple, lemon bar, toast, cream, baguette, butter) long finish, medium acidity, medium alcohol? Medium body, medium plus flavor, primary and secondary characteristics, can drink now but has potential for aging — 2 years ago
This is incredibly delicious Gamay!! Bright fruits on the nose and pallete. Made with much care and precision. After a few sips youre left with the inner conflict of quaffing down the rest of it because it's so damn delicious and drinkable or continuing to sip it to discover further flavors and layers.

Samuel Smith's Organic Pale Ale is a nice pint. Amber coloured with a good but not over frothy bread. Bready, malty, and with a hint of caramel complimented by light carbonation.
A good traditional pale ale from one of England's oldest and finest brewers. — 2 years ago
