Ungeheuer GG Riesling

Det är en riktigt bra flaska vin. Söt och god till det mesta. Första försöket förstördes av flädersaft. — 6 years ago

Single Block Release 864 Drive Block Funder & Diamond Vineyard Chardonnay 2014

On the improve perhaps? Really lovely. Acid ingrained with other phenolic and textural elements. Fine yet generous in flavour. Ripe stone fruit and the kernel. First class. 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 — 7 years ago

Cristal Brut Champagne 2008

This is wonderful. Bright and fresh. A dazzling midpalate with Cristal sweetness, lemon, a steely drive. Powerful and beautifully balanced. Great stuff with decades ahead of it — 8 years ago

There’s a lot of hype, and they’re gouging on price, but this is an exceptional wine

500 Sauvignon Blanc

Very different. A 2013 German Sauvignon Blanc. It’s minerally bordering on salty. Fruit creeps in after 1/2 hour. Probably needs more time. Certainly at the top end of SBs. Went very well with Raclette. — 8 years ago

Pechstein GG Riesling 2014

Vs Kirkenstuck: softer, more moderate acid structure, all-in-all not as complex. Interested to see where it is in a few years. — 9 years ago

Konigsbacher Olberg Riesling 2017

Another classic Pfalz Riesling from von Winning. Lush yellow fruit, some herbal notes and fantastic acidity. could be a little dryer. — 5 years ago

Forster Ungeheuer GG Riesling

I liked the first bottle i opened 5 months ago better, so I agree that this will now likely benefit from some age. Still enjoyable and distinctive, however. — 6 years ago

Parson's Flat Padthaway Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon

After 10 years this is absolutely fabulous. Throw the French or English kings of cheese at it, and it will match them nobly — 8 years ago

Pinot Noir II

Germanic earthy profile. Red fruits, rose hips, and earth with a distinct cool spice. Rich and bright with lots of acid. Some velvety texture folds nicely into crushed raspberries. — 8 years ago

I agree with John. This is absolute top wine and Von Winning is one of the "coming" wineries. MARMAR could become one of the future cult Rieslings from Germany.

Padthaway Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Another great vintage of a terrific wine! The 2009 has aromas and flavors of blueberry, plums, cedar, cola, vanilla, black pepper and earth. Hint of menthol. Very complex. Smooth tannins and well balanced. Both varietals are integrated beautifully! Great with a steak! Solid QPR! Revisited in February 2020. Still excellent, but probably beginning to pass it’s peak. — 7 years ago
