Elegant. Earthy. A varietal cab sauv, yet marching to the beat of its own drum. Revealed progressive complexity on decanting. Deft wine making and intriguing terroir. Worth the price. Drink or hold. (93 Excellent wine)

Ok, so I don’t drink a lot of GC Burgundy, but this is an example that lives up to the price tag. Cacophony of aromas right off the bat. Terrific length and drive of flavours over a bed of supple tannin. Drinking really well. (97 Superb wine)

Jubey, superripe strawberries. Singular and captivating. Herbs and spices. Fresh, racey palate. Something so different, exotic, takes you to another place. Open from the get go, and ready to drink. (93 Excellent wine)

Ours tends to be a little more verbose, but you can always have a peek at http://buzzzzoff.com/vinenaughties-wine-rating-criteria/. We tend to agree a "taste" does not a rating/note make...and is terribly uncivilised unless, of course, you do not like the wine ;-)
