Reva Dolcetto D'Alba 2022, D.O.C.

Château Des Moines 2009, Lalande De Pomerol

At it's prime now, the age upped it's complexity nicely. Very smooth, with the cedar aspect coming a bit to the fore. Old world in a very good way.

Bastide Sobirana Lieu Dit La Colomine 2015, Ap Côtes Du Roussillon

Rompesedas 2006, Do Toro

Big and bold, complex, long and bridges new (juicy) and old (cedar). Sounds great but the alcohol is too prominent, hot and unbalanced

Viñademoya Centenaria Mencía 2016, Do Bierzo

Steal at the price, John nailed it (as always). One release only? A shame. Bye bye birdy.

André Blanck Et Ses Fils Altenbourg Gewurztraminer 2018, Ac Alsace

Henry Of Pelham Estate Riesling 2018, Certified Sustainable, VQA Short Hills Bench, Niagara Escarpment

G.marquis Chardonnay The Silver Line Niagara Stone Road 2019, Niagara On The Lake

A bit of a throwback to the well oaked and ripe fruit style of the past but a pleasure due to its fine balanced. A hint of sweetness from the fruit and oaky butter but balanced by a touch of cold climate crispness (less than the norm). No need to age further, ready to go.
