| 2007 Brokenwood Sémillon ILR Reserve (Australia, New South Wales, Hunter Valley) | 4/29/2024 | Biggsy | 93 |
Lemon and lime dominate the nose, there’s a little undertone of yeasty bread. Opens really fresh and zingy on the palate, there’s crunchy green apple and lime juice. Really pure flavours. Lots of zingy acidity. Great depth all the way through the palate - finishes with a lovely lemon curd flavour. Really liked this. (38 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2008 Yabby Lake Vineyard Chardonnay Single Block Release Block 6 (Australia, Victoria, Port Phillip, Mornington Peninsula) | 4/29/2024 | Biggsy | 94 |
Big, powerful nose with aromas of lemon tart and wholemeal toast. Creamy textured and quite rich on the palate, but enough acidity to keep it well balanced. Long and layered, there’s popcorn, more lemon and a lingering butterscotch flavour on the finish. These are lovely. Shame that was my last one. (21 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2020 i Clivi Malvasia Collio Vigna 80 Anni (Italy, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Collio) | 4/12/2024 | Biggsy | 90 |
This is lovely. Powerful and expressive. Aromas of lemon and chamomile and then this really comes alive on the palate. There’s pithy lemon on the entry, rounds out through the palate with stone fruits coming through before a cleansing bitter noise on the long finish. Great!

| 2022 Bertani Valpolicella Classico Tenuta Novare (Italy, Veneto, Valpolicella, Valpolicella Classico) | 4/12/2024 | Biggsy | 88 |
Really enjoyed this - I can see it becoming a regular drinker. There’s red fruits on the nose, it has a supple texture with strawberry fruit, white pepper and a little spice. Quite a simple style but it’s lovely and vibrant. (46 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2018 Arnot-Roberts Gamay Noir El Dorado (USA, California, Sierra Foothills, El Dorado) | 4/12/2024 | Biggsy | 91 |
Lovely nose with aromas of Cherry and a herbal character. Bright and fresh with juicy fruit, some people have called this lean but I don’t see that. There’s great depth of flavour with a Cherry Cola note and a touch of spice. (57 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |

| 2015 Bedrock Wine Co. Zinfandel Sodini Vineyard (USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley) | 12/30/2023 | Biggsy | 92 |
Very similar notes to the last bottle. Intense nose with kirsch. Very intense and spicy. Juicy rather than jammy. Raspberry fruit on the palate. Very long. (215 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2019 Donato d'Angelo Aglianico del Vulture Calice (Italy, Basilicata, Aglianico del Vulture) | 12/20/2023 | Biggsy | 90 |
This is excellent for the price. Black fruits dominate the nose. The palate is layered with black fruits, a lovely floral lift, and a touch of spice. Long length. Good. Will look for more of these. (151 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2002 Château Langoa Barton (France, Bordeaux, Médoc, St. Julien) | 12/28/2023 | Biggsy | 90 |
Last bottle of these. In a lovely place. Nose of blackcurrant fruit and graphite. Still very fruit-forward, it has a slightly creamy texture and a bit of grip. Good. (470 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2001 Marqués de Murrieta Rioja Castillo Ygay Gran Reserva Especial (Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alta, Rioja) | 12/25/2023 | Biggsy | 95 |
Notes of black and red fruited on the nose - there’s subtle vanilla and spices. The palate is silky smooth with a touch of grip, the bright acidity balances the berry fruit. There’s a little smoky, meaty note that comes through on the finish. Lovely to drink now, but there’s no rush at all on these. Superb. (1418 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2009 Zind-Humbrecht Pinot Gris Clos Jebsal Vendange Tardive (France, Alsace) | 12/26/2023 | Biggsy | 92 |
Surprisingly dark golden colour - initially felt worrying. But not to worry. Aromas of spice, ginger, and stone fruits. It’s quite sweet, rich and luxurious. Enough acidity to balance the sweet stone fruits on the palate. The spicy ginger note returns on the long finish. Lovely. (200 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2002 Bollinger Champagne La Grande Année (France, Champagne) | 12/25/2023 | Biggsy | 95 |
This was lovely. Biscuity aromas with a touch of citrus. Still very bright with a lively mousse. Rich with real depth of flavour, honeyed, toasty brioche flavours fill the palate. Long and luxurious. (1154 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 1992 R. López de Heredia Rioja Blanco Reserva Viña Tondonia (Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alta, Rioja) | 12/24/2023 | Biggsy | 92 |
Powerful aromas of mandarin orange and that classic sherried note. Tangy, pithy character on the palate with a nutty flavour coming through o the long finish. A touch of grip and a lovely mouthfeel. (305 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
