Maté's Vineyard Chardonnay 2018

9.5

A yearly buy for me, this tastes and performs at premier cru+ level burgundy for a fraction of the price. Highly recommend. If I remember correctly they took vines from Le Montrachet (or another famous Burgundy vineyard) and re-planted in New Zealand. — 9 days ago

Oyster Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Smooth but welcomed acidic. Triangular. Stone fruit - more-so peach. Peppery with a hint of smoke on very end. Doesn’t overstay its welcome. If it was sweet it would a dessert. — 3 days ago

Kim Crawford

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2023

From Costco, and perhaps their best wine currently on the shelf. Zesty undertones to rich tree fruits, and perhaps stone fruit presence. Could drink this all day. — 16 days ago

Haven’t posted on here in a long time :( We haven’t been drinking much wine (or any alcohol rly) but this bottle put us right back into it! Super light, dry, fresh and (Luna thinks has floral taste). Great wine!
