The Society's Exhibition
C.V.N.E. (Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España)
The Society's Exhibition Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo 2004
Super smooth, well developed both in oak and bottle (of course) but a very fine example. — 9 years ago
Concha y Toro
The Society's Exhibition Limari Valley Chardonnay 2014
Chablis. Citrus mineral steel. Great value for a tenner. — 9 years ago
Etienne Suzzoni
The Society's Corsican Rosé 2014
Palest salmon/peach colour.
Nose of fresh-cut granny smith apples.
On the palate, mineral, apple skin, stones. Crisp acidity, medium body. Light and refreshing like Ravel water music.

Craggy Range
The Wine Society's Exhibition Central Otago Pinot Noir 2008
Great pinot noir, much nicer than Mount difficulty — 12 years ago
Weingut Günther Steinmetz
Mülheimer Sonnenlay Spätlese Riesling 1994
Petrol perfume, then a great depth of juicy exotic fruit on palate with a lengthy finish. Aromatically this wine might tempt some people to question if the wine is off, but for Riesling lovers it's an exhibition. — 12 years ago
Villa Maria Estate
The Society's Exhibition Marlborough Pinot Noir 2013
Fresh berry fruits, enjoyable Pinot — 9 years ago
The Wine Society
The Society's Barbera d'Asti Suepriore
Pizza is good. Wine is good. — 9 years ago
Château de Pena
The Society's French Full Red Côtes Catalanes Grenache Carignan
Buy again! — 9 years ago
Domaine Pierre Gelin
Clos Napoleon Fixin 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2011
Continuing on with my burgundy wine area deep dive while making my way through the French Wine Society's master class. Today's class was focused on terroir, as the soils change as you move through the Côte d'Or region. Fixin is towards the north side of the region and this premiere cru was grown up the slope from later Jurassic soils. — 10 years ago
The Wine Society
The Society's Chianti Rufina Sangiovese 2007
I am most the way through a case of this and it seems now the wind is just reaching a nice balanced phase. — 11 years ago
Delicato
The Society's Old Vine Zinfandel 2012
As usual, great value Wine Society. — 11 years ago
The Wine Society
The Society's French Dry White Blend 2015
Dry, fruity wine from The Wine Society. Usual fantastic value. Great accompaniment to Chicken Kiev. — 9 years ago
Kumeu River
The Society's Exhibition Chardonnay 2014
La Rioja Alta
The Society's Exhibition Reserva Rioja
Always a fantastic drop from the wine society — 10 years ago
Philip Togni Vineyard
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2007
Still a bit tight but a wonderful wine. Amazing balance. Kirsch dominates the nose and blackberries and licorice are present on the mid palate. Tannins are very well integrated. Great exhibition of Spring Mountain fruit with balance. — 11 years ago
Stefano Bartoli
The Society's Exhibition Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend 2010
£11.50 Wine Society Forward, bright cocktail cherry with a pretty perfume along with fresh vanilla pod and kola nut. In the mouth this shows great weight across the palate, full and forward red berry fruit with a nice lick of acidity on the end, will certainly benefit food with a tomato sauce! 90pts — 12 years ago
Andrew de Csilléry
Start of Christmas Celebrations. Excellent value champagne from the Wine Society. Extra creaminess from oak fermentation (fairly unusual, although Krug uses this method). Brioche, baked apple, lemon zest. — 9 years ago
