Definitely feels like a slightly challenging, cooler year. Less outward fruit and complexity, but still good extraction for a blowfish from Australia. Moric is a master. — 5 days ago
12.5% Mornington Peninsula. Their top-level Chardonnay (Cri de Coeur). 40yo vines. Neutral French oak, wild yeast. Bright and taut. Exuberant nose. This is quite good and in two years should be killer. — 15 days ago
Not as flashy/rich as the 2015. More elegant. Old school. Restraint. Balance. Oak is there, but it’s in the background already showing good integration.Closeout for $22 at K$L right now. Back up the truck. — 19 days ago
Serious stuff. Perfumed and bright. Drinks like burgundy with a very different fruit profile. Very interesting wine. Not your average Soave — 2 days ago
Oxidized, cooked fruit. I hope this is a flawed bottle. -edit- opened another one, this was flawed — 6 days ago
Killed a baby in Mexico tonight. All bound up and slightly awkward then about two hours in started to show its stuff. Got a few more, don’t touch until 2028, pendejo. — 11 days ago
One of the most delicate and beautiful barolos I’ve ever had at such a young age. Stunning purity. We drank 2017/18 side by side. The 2018 was the clear winner. 5th day open from the fridge. — 2 days ago
Medium body, drinks fairly light for bdx. Well balanced by age. A little gravelly/dusty. Very tasty. Pair with marinated grilled sliced tri tip. Don’t forget to pound your meat. — 9 days ago
Lean and delicious. Violets. Smoked meat. So much better than the last one I had nine months ago. Previous bottle may have been flawed. — 16 days ago

Excellent clarity. Austere at this stage. Ripe tannins yet to integrate. Needs plenty of cellar time. Quite masculine. Like your mom. — a day ago
