Shared by our host. Great wine in a lesser vintage. Nose of tar, black currant, cedar, cigar box. It's aged, but it's still kicking. The palate shows some acid drive, some width, some nice red and black berry notes, some really dusty tannins that are drying in the rear and a very long finish with a savoury thing in the rear. Great tasting experience. Thank you, Nicolas ! — 25 days ago

Slightly fresher & more exotic be the Batailley.
Black fruit galore, cedar wood, minty whiffs, exotic spice.
Soft & quite mellow on the palate. Yet fresh. The tannins are so finely grained & juicy - dusty, sandy fine. Poised, so elegant, classic Bordeaux. Great mid palate, nice length & depth. This is probably at a perfect drinking window right now. So delightful. — 7 months ago

Deep golden color. Beautiful aromas of apricots, dried blonde figs, candied orange peel and honey. Apricot, pineapple and honey flavors fill the palate with hints of clementine, mango, sweet spices and candied ginger. Nice touch of salty preserved lemon on the finish. Mouth coating finish. Enough acidity to cut through all the sweetness. Rich and quite fresh tasting. Outstanding QPR! — 10 months ago

Blend of Semillon (54%) and Sauvignon Blanc (46%). Vivid golden color. Lovely nose of citrus, white flowers and fresh thyme. Tropical fruit and green apple flavors on the palate with hints of pear, roasted nuts and a distinct mineral note. Fresh herbs galore on the lengthy finish. Medium bodied and extremely vibrant. Crisp acidity, nice freshness and a wonderful texture. Stunning! — 9 months ago

Celebrating the Brisbane Lions winning the AFL Grand Final in Melbourne on Saturday afternoon over the Sydney Swans. This champagne was mid yellow in colour with a fine mousse. A fruit driven palate with citrus and peach. I don’t drink a lot of Champagne but this was a real crowd pleaser. Full flavoured with 45% Chardonnay and 55% Pinot Noir. — 4 months ago

Order has been restored to the universe. The Lions choke as usual and this wine is fantastic. Gigantic bone in rib-eye is next. Extremely approachable wine as an infant. — a year ago
