More delicate and lifted than the Anderson Valley bottling tasted alongside, despite clocking in at slightly higher alcohol — 5 months ago

Rossj - Bass Langhe Chardonnay Sauvignon Blanc 2018

9.3

This 2018 Rossj-Bass continues to impress with its vibrant and layered expression. On the nose, the Sauvignon Blanc influence lends bright aromatic lift, offering ripe peach, zesty lemon peel, and a delicate touch of passionfruit, all woven together with nuances of almond and a whisper of jasmine. The palate is beautifully balanced, round and texture with a medium-full body, yet lifted by a lively, refreshing acidity. The finish is polished and harmonious. Effortless drinkability. — 2 months ago

Dot's Garden Estate Russian River Valley Zinfandel 2018

One of the best zins around. Slight to medium body, not too tannic, almost like a Pinot. Clove and cinnamon, baking spice on the nose, plum and bing cherry — 8 months ago

Reserve Pinot Noir 2013

As I’ve said previously it’s always a highlight to drink a Bass Phillip Reserve - Australia’s Best Pinot Noir. Nose of Asian spices, decayed plant matter/compost heap, mushroom and Sous Bois in general - a gorgeous nose. The palate is also gorgeous and of profound intensity with medium minus acid - great length and persistence. Treads the line of intensity and elegance. An amazingly good Pinot of Premier Cru but more of Grand Cru standard. I haven’t been buying recent vintages because the French owners have jacked up the price significantly / now approaching $1000, whereas I paid $495 for this 2013. — 4 months ago

@David White @Ron R Just an update on the current pricing of the Reserve - steeper than I thought - the 2019 Reserve is selling for around $1500 AUD in Australia.
