10/3/2023 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 94 pointsAbsolutely wonderful Sangiovese that shows vivid colors, stunning nose and has now very well integrated tannin, fruit and acidity. Long taste that finish with a bit of licorice. Tasted two years ago, and it is just so much better and rounded now. |

2017 Luca Bosio Barbera d'Alba Egidiomore |
4/2/2023 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 88 pointsMy forgotten one and only bottle has aged beautifully and present with vibrant red colors, a fresh nose and rounded taste. On the palate there are amarena cherries, hints of chocolate, almonds and liqurice, some acidity and moderate to low tannin. I am happily surprised. |

2018 Viña Zorzal Garnacha Navarra Malayetomore |
3/24/2023 - GregersJ wrote: 90 pointsRed berries and a bit of tobacco on the nose, which carries nicely over to the palate along with forrest floor, some dryness and an acidic kick in the end. Pure Garnacha from a single vineyard. |

2019 Raeburn ChardonnaySonoma County more |
9/16/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 91 pointsStill young, but nice yellow fruit with liche, a bit of peach and pear. Medium-low acidity and moderate bitterness plays well with the creamy mouthfeel. Nicely restrained butter and oak. The next bottles will (maybe) stay a year or two in the cellar to add a little complexity. |

2016 Jean Gagnerot RullyPinot Noir more |
8/13/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 88 pointsEight years and still fresh and lovely with a nice tannin grip on top of the medium acidity. Don't think it will improve further. |

7/29/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 91 pointsBest of the wines of this vacation so far, this is an excellent Croatian Plavac Mali with dark red berries, medicinal freshness, toasted oak, medium acidity and well rounded tannin. I could easily have taken this for a good Brunello |

2019 Casa Marin Sauvignon Blanc Cipreses VineyardSan Antonio Valley more |
7/3/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 91 pointsExcellent Sauvignon Blanc with florality and depth. Distinctive notes of gooseberries and black currant leaves which may have been accentuated by the 3 years of cellaring. |

6/4/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 88 pointsDejlig Cali PN med frugt, syre og lidt fad noter. Lys i farven, men mørkere i smag og mere fylde end jeg lige havde forventet. Dejlig vin uden at excellere. |

2/26/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 92 pointsYummi, this is good stuff! Wonderful nose with fruit, vanilla and tertiary notes of autumn in the hills. On the palate, juicy deep taste from bright red berries, fine acidity, some oak and again a touch of vanilla and spices. And still very fresh although it is pushing 10 years. |

2016 Hãhã Pinot Noir ReserveMarlborough more |
2/6/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 88 pointsSuper let og frisk med fin syre og lavt tannin bid. Noter af hindbær og tranebær, og tertiære noter af løvfald. Delikat er vel et godt ord. |

2019 Schola Sarmenti Fiano Chardonnay Salento IGTWhite Blend more |
1/14/2022 - GregersJ Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis is quite a funky mix of 60% Fiano and 40 % Chardonnay. Very dry with notes reminiscent of fino sherry, some oxidized apples, honey, roasted nuts and brioche. Excellent with food, but will certainly also work very well cooled on the terrace. And such a beautiful label. |
