11/19/2019 - fattunesy Likes this wine: 88 pointsStill quite young in November 2019. Better the second day. Tannin is very robust, but integrates well after opening. Great fruit. |

2015 Saint Clair Family Estate Sauvignon BlancMarlborough more |
11/12/2017 - fattunesy Likes this wine: 88 pointsThis could be the stereotype of New Zealand sauvignon blanc. Passionfruit and pineapple dominate. Very tropical fruit but some acidity to balance. Decent for the price, but could be off putting if you are not ready for a tropical fruit bomb. |

10/29/2017 - fattunesy Likes this wine: 94 pointsDark fruit with modest minerality. Nice acid and depth. Lush without being overbearing. Perfectly drinkable in late 2017. May have another few years left. |

10/2/2017 - fattunesy Likes this wine: 87 pointsStrong fruit, deep inky color, good body but not too much alcohol. Zin predominates, but the syrah is noticeable. Held up well over two days. |

2012 Antiyal KuyenMaipo Valley Red Blend more |
6/25/2017 - fattunesy Likes this wine: 89 pointsFull bodied and off-dry with intense aromas and flavors of red fruits, black fruits, vanilla, and oak. Perfect with aged cheese, cured meats, spicy cuisine, or red sauce. Drinking very well in mid 2017, might still have another couple years left. |

2013 Williams Selyem Pinot Noir Sonoma Countymore |
6/20/2017 - fattunesy Likes this wine: 91 pointsPerfect age as of June 2017. Well incorporated tannin, strong fruit, acid that balances it well. Cherries and blackberry dominate with a mineral finish. |
