9/7/2022 - chatters wrote: NRValenciso Masterclass with Diego Santana (Prince Sydney, 40 Hansard Street): Savoury, sweet spice, a little toasted oak, fruit plays second fiddle to this but proves to be, with agitation, red hued, with plenty of minerality and a touch of an almost saline note. Fresh and fleshy, chalky minerality, that saline quality, oak and fruit on the palate are both present and it finishes a little bitter. Hmm.

11/5/2022 - chatters wrote: NRDecanter Fine Wine Encounter (The Landmark, London): Ripe, baked black over red fruit has a little jubey underpin, a little cream, sweet spice, plenty of very good oak…In fact this has ridiculous levels of oak…bit of a roided nose. Medium plus intensity acidity (adjusted?) Porty, ugly, fairly awful stuff, like sucking a lump of wood that has been waved in the general direction of some black hued fruit. Years may help to tame the oak but will the fruit persist?

4/27/2022 - chatters wrote: NREn-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Polished and plush, like the Frank, polished oak, black fruit tends to cassis and red berry fruits, sweet spice. Medium plus intensity acidity, tannins and fruit arrive together vying for attention. The former is chalky and drying and slightly more demanding that the fruit which proves slightly sour but not distressingly so. Hmm

11/18/2022 - Rick 4 Wine Likes this wine: 93 pointsReally nice red blend - can’t believe I forgot about this. This is not a big sappy zin w that doubles as a BlackBerry pie. This has a lot going on, shows great structure and nice acidity.

In the mouth it's juicy, fleshy, a little bitter, the alcohol a little intrusive, textured on the mid palate, despite its age, though, it's quite simplistic on the palate. walnut and walnut skin with a smidge of plum on the finish. Hmm.

2/23/2022 - chatters wrote: NRCoravin fun - Domaine de Chevalier; 2/23/2022-3/6/2022 (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Aromas of cream, honey, butter, sweet spice, green apple with a smidge of bruised apple in support, a little cheesy lees. with time the oxidative note grows. Honeyed and rich but with sufficient acidity to keep things clean. A little front of mouth grip and a smidge of bitterness on the long finish lends further interest. Engaging and rather lovely.

3/2/2022 - chatters wrote: NRCoravin fun - Domaine de Chevalier; 2/23/2022-3/6/2022 (My place, Kent Street): From Coravin. Slight baked black fruits, sweet spice, a little savoury underpin. with time a smidge of almost rhubarb and the fruit gets a bit of a lozenge quality. Nice nose. And this shows quite primary on the palate; black fruits baked by red berries (a little touch of strawberry here) with drying, persistent but fine textured tannins. All in balance. Really rather pleasant. Yum.

2010 Château L'ArroséeSt. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend more |
10/9/2022 - ChristoBretts Likes this wine: 93 pointsDrank over three days. First hour of first day oak, black fruit and tar on the nose, similar on the palate with integrated tannin. Gets better after an hour with diminishing oak and more fruit and tar. Second and third day has much less oak but wet soil and forest floor - tannin and acidity low. In a good spot now but likely on the way down.

10/9/2022 - PMJak11 Likes this wine: 93 pointsDouble Blind Wine Tasting. #3 of the day. Easy to guess. Big wine. Reddish purple color. Toned down modestly from most young Aussie Shiraz’s. Lots of sweetness and red fruit with big tannins and lots of alcohol. |

1998 Seppelt Shiraz St PetersGreat Western more |
8/19/2022 - chatters wrote: NRFestival of Phil (Phil's place, Putney, Sydney): From Coravin. Meaty, savoury, slightly sour smelling red over black fruits, a little pepper and leather. Fruit is almost a little jubey on the palate, black hued with chalky, drying, grainy tannins, then swing by but the fruit, assisted by the alcohol, persists and carries long. Nice.

8/19/2022 - SimonG wrote: 93 pointsA Medlar lunch (Medlar, London): A big step up from a slightly ungainly and possibly corky bottle five years ago at Piccolino. Dark, lots of blackcurrant on the nose. A touch of spice too. Mellow cassis with a powdering of pencil lead on the attack. Some spice too. Nicely grippy. Opens up to a floral, violet scented nose. Lovely, and really quite serious. **** |

I have been thinking (in the loosest of terms) of what to bring. I've got some 85 right bank wines that would be appropriate that sit at the younger end of old shite.
