2016 Ravensworth Riesling Ancestral (Australia, New South Wales, Southern New South Wales, Canberra District) 1/29/2017Avid Wino90

Fizz bubbled out of the bottle for a good half a minute after removing the crown seal. Cloudy in the glass. Juicy lemon, apple & lime with medium bubbles. Lengthy finish with some yeastiness. Great to drink, just the trick at the end of a 37 degree day! (642 views)

2015 Stonier Pinot Noir (Australia, Victoria, Port Phillip, Mornington Peninsula) 1/26/2017Avid Wino90

Raspberry & cherry but savoury elements dominate... mulch, minerality, spice. Pretty well balanced. Strong line of juicy acidity. Long finish. 90 from me tonight as the acidity is a little bit much... everything else especially the length argues for higher. (1558 views)

2015 Mount Majura T.S.G. (Australia, New South Wales, Southern New South Wales, Canberra District) 1/24/2017Avid Wino93

Superb. Red and black fruits, baking spices, touch of cola, young leather, savouriness. Excellent balance and length. 92 or 93 but let's go 93. (893 views)

2015 Mount Majura Molli (Australia, New South Wales, Southern New South Wales, Canberra District) 1/21/2017Avid Wino90

As per the label blurb.... wild-fermented Pinot Gris - Riesling blend. Softness, texture. Musk, stone fruit and almond nougat. Some banana. Creamy palate. Don't chill this too much, maybe 10 degrees is about right. (315 views)

2015 Mount Pleasant Wines Sémillon Elizabeth (Australia, New South Wales, Hunter Valley) 1/8/2017Avid Wino90

Excellent line and length and mouth feel. Lime, lemon pith, lemon grass, grass, on warming in glass a slight vegetal element, probably best described as snow pea, maybe cabbage. Earthy minerality. Tough one to score. 91 before it warmed. Fear that vegetal element may become more pronounced in time could have me saying 88. For now, 90 all up. Hunter Semillon continues to fascinate and perplex me, so much variety of style according to terroir and age. (1961 views)

2014 Aldi Côtes du Rhône Villages Cuvée Réserve (France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages) 1/2/2017Avid Wino88

Juicy Rhone goodness. More or less as per the label. Raspberry, blackberry, cherry, cranberry, touch of liquorice, more than a bit of structure. Tannins are a tad too drying. Showed better on second night, first was dilute and not giving much away, so might be a cheapie but could do with being decanted. I was 86 on night one, at least 88 on night two. (1337 views)
