Edinburgh Offline (Peter's Cellars): A bit of an odd nose, though the oddness blows off. Smoky, toasty and a touch greasy on the nose. Quite unusual on the palate and not something I recognise, even vaguely. Not at all unpleasant, but just a little odd. Very dry. Very ripe, concentrated fruit with lots of oak. Very full-bodied. A touch scented maybe? I'd guess at it being a lower level chardonnay from the new world with some age. (Wrong!) A very unusual, yet attractive wine.
