2008 Tenuta di Capraia Chianti Classico RiservaChianti Classico DOCG Sangiovese Blend, Sangiovese more |
12/30/2022 - Soreng wrote: 94 pointsReally excellent at this point, such balance, very elegant and very complex. Old school chianti classico riserva, still has energy for further aging, up to 5 years. But no need to wait. |

1/29/2021 - Soreng wrote: 91 pointsA really delicate wine, very well balanced. Concentrated yet light and elegant, not least due to its amazing acidity. Good complexity - and the taste is simply great, with much garrigue, as pointed out by GDA202. A real treat at this point. 91-92 |

2016 Hãhã Chardonnay Hawke's Baymore |
12/15/2020 - Soreng wrote: 86 pointsSome minerality, but a bit past its prime. Obvious oak, okay acidity. The purity and some good mineral notes makes this an enjoyable acquaintance. Probably was 87-88 a year ago. |

7/15/2020 - Soreng wrote: 93 pointsTo me this is right up there at 93-94+ points, but, I admit; this is my favourite style of wine. Really amazing minerality and such smooth perfectly tamed, and abundant, tannin; this will keep for many many years. |

2018 Lagar de Cervera Pazo de Seoane RosalRías Baixas Albariño more |
7/2/2020 - Soreng wrote: 89 pointsQuite fantastic exuberant flowery tropical nose. Very fresh in mouth with super elegant and high acidity, with some mineral. Tasty, and at this point actually more complex than its one-variety albarino sibling from the same producer. It is, however, the high acidity and freshness which will make this wine an absolute favourite this summer. Not sure how this will evolve, but great right now! Has similarities with Muscadet from Loire. |

2018 Jean Biecher Vino Libre Edición Especial EcologicoSpain Red Rhone Blend more |
6/27/2020 - Soreng wrote: 86 pointsThis is a very fruitdominated style of wine. About purity and freshness and nonintervention, as it says on label and which is very recognisable when tasted. It is pure and has good quality taanins, lovely tannins in fact. No grapes mentioned on label. Earthy smoky elements suggests mouvedre(?). Suprisingly good for the price. |

2017 Misty Cove Sauvignon BlancMarlborough more |
11/16/2019 - Soreng wrote: 89 pointsVery good minerality and outstanding purity and acidity, with tertiary notes of cheese and sour feet. Not a typical nz sauvignon blanc, would have guessed high acidity pinot blanc from Gernany or Alsace in blind test. Outstanding purity and racersharp acidity. For purists.. |

11/2/2019 - Soreng wrote: 93 pointsConsistent notes. Adding that there is nothing at all wrong with the balance. Plus its even better on day two, 93-94 on day two, 92 on the first day. So serious decant or keep. |

2018 Ant Moore Sauvignon Blanc Estate SeriesMarlborough more |
10/26/2019 - Soreng wrote: 89 pointsGood balance and very drinkable. Typical for variety and NZ terroir in nose, with a toasted element too. Good depth in fruit and lovely acidity and a decent minerality too in mouth. Again it has notes very typical for variety, but the wine has greater purity and balance and finishiing citrus-acid bite than its competitors strive for at this entry level. I have had Poully Fume wines lately at more than the double price which gave only slightly more pleasure. 89 |
