1995 Quinta do Vesuvio Porto VintagePort Blend more |
5/1/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 90 pointsbrought up in haste because of unexpected demand. Light all round, colour, nose, fruit and spirit but a lovely surprise. Good to know there are more bottles. Probably fully mature |

2010 Molino Real MR Mountain WineMálaga Moscatel, Muscat more |
5/2/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 85 pointsLike a medium dry sherry. Most of the sherry I drink these days is better made and nicer to drink than this. |

5/9/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 92 pointsI have tasted this wine 5-6 times in last 3/12. All bottles were examples of very well made wine, golden with a delicate nose. Very full and complex on the palate and evolving. Surprised that other CT members were disappointed |

2010 Domaine de Mourchon Côtes du RhôneRed Rhone Blend more |
4/8/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 89 pointsFar better than the average C.du R. Much more complex on nose and palate and opening up well as the meal progressed. |

2012 Erwin Tinhof NoirBurgenland Red Blend more |
3/29/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 92 pointsSunday supper a deux! Deep brooding purple. Reticent nose, might have been released by decanting. Huge impact of a gobfull of dark luxurious fruit. Tannins enough to intrude at the beginning but they faded away. This is a stonker, particularly at the price |

3/21/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 90 pointsDry cork. No ullage. Moderate sediment. Slightly brown but bags of fruit on nose. More tannin than I expected at first but in retreat from about halfway. Plenty of fruit throughout. Should have decanted earlier |

3/18/2015 - austincarty Likes this wine: 86 pointsPurple like a much younger wine. Good fruit on nose. Lots of tannin. I'll put it to one side for a few months to see if it becomes more friendly. |
