2004 Rusden Shiraz Black GutsBarossa Valley more |
10/20/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 94 pointsUnusual in the sense that the acidity level is very high, and may be off-putting for some. Otherwise, this is a great wine, with some evolution aromas mixing with great fruit. |

10/15/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 90 pointsMy bottle is obviously very different from other bottles openned recently. Very masculine, very ripe, tannins still very present. Wait 5 to 10 years before openning the next bottle ... |

2004 Massa Vecchia AleaticoMaremma Toscana more |
4/12/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 93 pointsDrank a little too late. Aromas are starting to fade away a little. Still a very nice bottle, with bright red fruit, and not too much sugar for an aleatico. The previous bottle a few years ago way better. |

4/12/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 96 pointsOne of the three or four best burgundy (a Claude Dugat charmes chambertin may have been even better) I had the chance to drink, and for sure the best Lignier. |

2007 Alain Graillot Crozes-HermitageSyrah more |
2/14/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 90 pointsfor some people, this could be overwelmmingly acidic. for me, its not the case, it just brings some dynamism in the attack of the wine. |

2004 Cappellano Barolo Piè Rupestris Otin Fiorin (Gabutti)Nebbiolo more |
2/13/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 92 pointsa little bit young. tannins could be more elegant (i know its barolo, it will never be super smoth ..). Decant several hours. or wait 5 years. |

2009 Clai Malvazija Istarska Sveti JakovZapadna Istra more |
2/4/2016 - globi Likes this wine: 90 pointsNot for everybody. Share lots of common points with orange wines from friuli. Maybe a little bit more acidity than usualy seen in those italian wines. Still it's 14.5, so drinking temperature is very important to the final experience. Very complex, nose and mouth. A multitude of dried fruits (esp. apricot), orange peel, and so on. Not very elegant, but so intriguing ! Length is only average. |
