2016 Kanonkop Cabernet SauvignonSimonsberg-Stellenbosch more |
2/3/2024 - Dataday Likes this wine: 92 pointsPhantastic CS - we had it with medium-rare Strip Loin Steak, rosemary potatoes and buttered carrots. Great nose of red and black fruits, absolutely no trace of that green bellpepper aroma so often found in unripe CS. Velvety on the palate, not that long but nevertheless a big success. Will not gain from more ripening, but will be on top for five or so more years to come. Chapeau! |

2020 Tenuta Guado al Tasso (Antinori) Bolgheri Il BruciatoRed Blend more |
11/9/2023 - Dataday Likes this wine: 90 pointsFresh nose of dark fruits - blackberries, black cherries and blueberries. Some wood, but well integrated. On the palate tobacco, leather and vanilla, too. Tannins are still very present. Medium long. Wine is in the beginning of its drinking windows but will improve over the next two or three years. Drink until 2028. |

2019 Cantina Tramin Alto Adige - Südtirol StoanWhite Blend more |
9/10/2023 - Dataday Likes this wine: 92 pointsCuvee of Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon blanc and Gewürztraminer. Nose typical for that varieties - apricots, pears, elderflowers, a hint of roses; on the palate it also has bananas, a nice minerality and is quite creamy. Very balanced. What a success - I like it a lot and will definitely buy again. |

2020 Kellerei Cantina Andrian Chardonnay SomeretoAlto Adige - Südtirol more |
8/28/2023 - Dataday Likes this wine: 91 pointsWe seldomly get too excited about Chardonnay - way too many uninspired boring bottles. But this one was different: Nose of tropical fruits and ripe bananas, a nose that makes you grin immediately; on the palate it had a very pleasant acidity. Nicely balanced wine. Great price quality ratio. I will definitely buy again. |

2019 Palacios Remondo Rioja La MontesaGrenache Blend, Grenache more |
6/27/2023 - Dataday Likes this wine: 90 pointsRather reserved but very pleasant nose with only a hint of well integrated wood; on the palate it has red fruits, raspberries, rose hips, sweet cherries, redcurrants; not too long a finish, but overall a very consistent and likeable Rioja; drink now or within the next five years; for 13 Euros a clear buy. I like it a lot. |

2018 Donna Olimpia 1898 BolgheriRed Bordeaux Blend more |
5/4/2023 - Dataday Likes this wine: 89 pointsNice Bolgheri, but in comparison rather short and unimpressing. Cannot compete with other similarly priced wines like Il Bruciato or Villa Donoratico. Had it with strip loin steak and rosemary potatoes. Drink now or within the next three years. |

2021 San Michele Appiano (St. Michael-Eppan) Weissburgunder Alto Adige - Südtirol Schulthausermore |

2021 Cantina Tramin Sauvignon PepiAlto Adige - Südtirol more |
1/22/2023 - Dataday Likes this wine: 92 pointsBreathtaking fresh nose, many exotic aromas as elderflower and nettle, but not overdone - perfect balance. Already drinkable but will be fine the next one or two years or so. Bravo! One of the best Sauvignon blancs I had so far. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

12/26/2022 - Dataday Likes this wine: 94 pointsGolden color, perfect nose, still fresh and balanced, no petrol at all. On the palate it has tropical fruits, a little bit of honey, lemon, a perfect balance of acidity and sweetness. Although 20 years old it still is very fresh. Really lovely indeed. |

11/6/2022 - Dataday Likes this wine: NRRed gold, honey, exotic fruits in the nose. On the palate beside some very ripe „patina“ notes the wine still has a nice balance of Riesling typical acidity and a honey-like sweetness. Nice lenght. Still a pleasant sweet wine. Bravo. |

2020 Cà dei Frati Lugana I FratiTurbiana, Verdicchio more |
3/19/2022 - Dataday Likes this wine: 89 pointsIf you like Lugana, it is one of the best. But it still is a Lugana. And when you are used to more aromatic white wines like German Riesling or Sauvignon Blanc from Alto Adige, France or overseas it is a little bit, well, too lightweight and missing expression. Just my two cents. On the other hand: it goes well with fish. |

2020 Hans Greyl Sauvignon Blanc Marlboroughmore |
8/25/2021 - Dataday Does not like this wine: 84 pointsHans Greyl, New Zealand? There is no such winery. It is a marketing construction from GCF, France. I cannot understand all those exuberant tasting notes else where. At best this wine is ok. But nothing more. Better than (too expensive) Cloudy Bay? Hey! You are kidding! Come on! This is BS. |

4/5/2021 - Dataday Does not like this wine: 80 pointsThis wine has absolutely no acid. To me residual sugar with no acid means the wine is almost dead. I definitely do not need wine like this. :o( |
