Domaine Pabiot Les Vieilles Terres Pouilly Fumé 2010, Ac
Loire, France$21.95
Opened this along with the Dog Point from Nz tonight, to compare while making a snow pea risotto to pair with.
This was mineraly but with the mid-belt weight and complex fruit of a balanced new world SB. Best of both worlds, this soared given the length and complexity, especially in direct comparison with the Dog Point.
Penley Estate Hyland Shiraz 2014, Coonawarra
South Australia, Australia$14.25
Not getting it. Not jammy, but also lacks any depth. Not flabby but over acidified, almost artificial. Short finish
Love other producers' Coonawara cabs but this is an also ran. Tried 2 different bottles from different stores. Returning the rest
Darting Dürkheimer Nonnengarten Gewürztraminer Kabinett 2013, Deutscher Prädikatswein
Pfalz, Germany$20.95
Text book, a bit restrained but still complex with excellent length. Not a juice bomb, not a floral bouquet, but extremely appealing, wants you to drink all in one sitting
De Wetshof Bon Vallon Unwooded Chardonnay 2017, Wo Robertson
Robertson, South Africa$22.95
Starts with round melon working to a full mid palate and long finish without skipping a beat. Complex and acid is balancing without commanding attention. Accessible and delicious without remotely pandering. South Africa continues to offer outstanding value wines.
