2006 vintage. At Sepia, in Sydney. Medium ruby cherry hue edging to garnet - bright and alluring. The nose is obviously Rayas: roasted strawberry pieces, red currants, savoury meaty spices, slight chocolately note. Very complex and concentrated. On the palate, its dry but has a slight residual sugar note from the bright fruit and medium plus alcohol. The body has some weight, and the acidity is a touch on the light side, leaving a gelatine feel to the mid palate. The strawberry herbal savoury notes to the fore. The finish is long, but shorter than I remember from the last bottle I had of this vintage. A typical example of Rayas, but not necessarily the best bottle I have had. Drink now for at least another decade. — 9 years ago
'95 Pinot Gris - still a little young and needed some opening up. Golden honeyed flavors with yellow pear, Apple, lemon peel, some slight spiciness with enough acidity to cut through most foods. Paired well with caramelized duck at Sepia. $197/bottle — 9 years ago

1998 vintage. Beautiful nose, clean finish on the palate. One of the best wines I've had in a restaurant all year. Paired with grilled octopus and swordfish at Sepia in Chicago. — 9 years ago
Really awesome Riesling - a fun trip down memory lane. The nose is just pure heaven with an extremely rich palate. Not quite as much acidity as on their Rangen grand crus but really decadent and easy drinking. Turns me into a Kid at a candy shop. $18/glass at Sepia — 9 years ago
Eating dinner at sepia in chicago. The wonderful Arthur Hon asked what I like to drink. I gave some thoughts and be surprised us with this spot-on perfect selection. Tart cherry with red plum, balanced tannins and a nice long finish — 10 years ago
Almost purple coloured, or was it sepia? — 11 years ago
*Fascination Street* - deep amber hue, electric caramel nose, Meyer lemon toast, hazelnut brioche, crushed rock fabulosity. On the palate: med acid, high-mod alc, bit o' wood tannins...flavors of macadamia-lemon oil delight, sunset, toaster and sepia. Wants some Coltrane-In-Paris tunes, a retro frame of mind and good company. Ready: go. — 12 years ago
Great light French wine @ sepia — 13 years ago
Drank with amazing meal at Sepia. Duck breast dish was a total food and wine wet dream. Also good with the octopus with nuts and veg course. It is really at peak, maybe not the most dense, but really pretty bouquet that is still slow to unveil the tertiary charm. Probably holds for a 5 years at this level, but should show nicely on its slow moving decline, as the fruit is still so pronounced. Leroy kills! — 8 years ago
Dime a dozen. Did improve with air though. Got to serve these bruisers cool — 9 years ago
Somehow skirts by its sweetness to reveal a wine of great complexity. @ Sepia in chicago — 9 years ago
Incredible. I think Portuguese wine is so underrated. This had the complexity of a Barolo. Tannic but elegant, the fruit still present even at that age. Coworker said it drinks like a sepia photograph, love that. — 10 years ago
Good cheap Syrah. Easy drinking — 10 years ago
