1/2/23, 11:57 AM - What is your thoughts on the age? I have 3 btl's left, should we drink up?
1/2/23, 12:57 PM - Corked Checkmate? I haven't had that problem, but you have me worried now. I agree on the drink now rather than later, I do like the fruit.
12/28/22, 1:57 PM - What do you think of a 1hr decant ?
1/29/22, 2:41 PM - I will be pouring this for a tasting, can you recommend a decanting time please and thank you?
8/24/21, 9:06 PM - I will be serving this wine at a tasting soon, would you recommend the 3hr decanting time? Thanks
8/7/21, 12:12 PM - What would be your recommended decanting time? Thanks for the review!
8/8/21, 10:01 AM - Thanks for your response!
8/7/21, 12:20 PM - Hvad vil du anbefale i en forfaldende tid?
8/7/21, 1:48 PM - Haha, Google translate clearly didn't work. I was wondering about your recommendation for a decanting time?
8/8/21, 10:00 AM - Thank you for your response!
4/3/21, 2:19 PM - Great review Killer,I have viewed several WineAlign virtual tasting as well. Good fun.
1/27/21, 4:47 PM - I have one more bottle left. Time to drink up.
1/30/21, 12:36 PM - https://www.cellartracker.com/user.asp?iUserOverride=325107 What vintage was your Blue Eyed Boy? I am holding a 2016.
11/25/20, 5:38 PM - I couldn't agree more.
10/28/20, 5:56 PM - So true, nothing complicated about it. Just glug glug, and that's ok sometimes.
9/19/20, 3:35 PM - How long did it take to open up and show it's goods?
8/31/20, 12:55 PM - Thanks for taking the time to post your TN. I found the same thing in my last bottle. So I opened one of the 2015 I have and it also has started to fade. This leaves me feeling that this wine is best enjoyed young. I have one more of the 2014's I will most likely open it sooner rather than later.I also hold the 2014 Pattes Loup Vent d'Agne great value at $43.CDN as the 1er Cru has gone from $52.Canadian to $103/blt in the past 2yrs.
8/30/20, 2:36 PM - I still have yet to try an Oculus, from your note I don't think I will bother. So many great wines for under the $170 price point.
8/30/20, 5:22 PM - I just looked at Le Vieux website and there is only the 2016 Equinoxe Cab Franc available. Have you had the 2016?
8/30/20, 6:12 PM - Thanks Francois, I will reach out to him.
7/14/20, 12:07 PM - I just picked up some of the 18's, I tucked them away in a corner for now.
8/30/20, 3:30 PM - I am going to open a 14 for my next semi annual tasting. Thoughts on a decanting time?
8/25/20, 3:27 PM - Great note, thanks for taking the time.
8/23/20, 2:42 PM - I wonder if your bottle was slightly corked? But the perfumed nose would be prominent if it was corked. Puzzling, as I thought it was an average example of a California Chardonnay.
7/30/20, 7:10 PM - great note, thank you
7/30/20, 7:09 PM - great note, thanks
7/25/20, 12:26 PM - Thanks for the tasting note, care to provide a decanting time?
7/25/20, 12:37 PM - So true, thanks for the recomendation.
7/13/20, 6:27 PM - I'm still holding several 14's of the Turley's. I really should dig them up and start drinking.
7/14/20, 12:02 PM - @mark1npt thank you for the opinion. I agree on why we drink Zin's, it's all about the fruit. Time to drink up.
7/14/20, 12:55 PM - @mark that's a great idea, come on up to Canada and give me a hand.
7/10/20, 12:47 PM - Thanks for the note, I have been holding this bottle for several years. I think I will give it a go.
7/6/20, 5:15 PM - I am holding a magnum as well, thanks for the note. I alway wonder about how long it takes a wine like this to open up.
7/6/20, 9:14 PM - I picked up my mag in Nanaimo.
7/6/20, 5:18 PM - Thanks for the note, it's always a little heart breaking when you open a bottle like this and it doesn't show it full potential. It looks like it will stay on the rack a little longer.
7/6/20, 9:12 PM - @markThat is one of the benefits of Cellartracker, we have a great communityhere.
5/17/20, 10:35 AM - What critic gave this a 96? My first guess would be Suckling.
4/23/20, 7:01 PM - How long did the wine take to show its worth?
4/28/20, 7:38 PM - WOW, thanks for the notes.
4/23/20, 7:00 PM - Pico's wines can be a mystery at times.
4/23/20, 6:58 PM - I love the Turley's, I picked this up on the vintage release. Thanks for taking the time for the note.What is your thoughts on the sulphate filter? I found this https://ullowine.com/collections/sulfite-filtersWhat are you using?Cheers
4/13/20, 1:11 PM - I only found one bottle last year, what is the current selling prince?
4/13/20, 10:19 AM - How long did it take to open up?
4/13/20, 1:10 PM - Always great a great day when you share a Tig. Thanks for the reply!
3/25/20, 9:05 PM - Great producer, I recently found one of the Hamilton Pinots. It's still sitting in the cellar.
3/29/20, 10:15 AM - Speaking of S.A. have you had the High Constantia Sebastiaan? I was gifted a bottle last summer.
3/14/20, 11:42 AM - I couldn't agree with you more! Turley knows now to make a great wine.
3/13/20, 1:15 PM - Hello,I have a 2004 what would be your suggested decanting time?Thanks for the reply, I will do that. serve it at cellar temp as well.
10/23/19, 8:23 AM - I love the H.R. I recently purchased one of their pinots. I have a few of the 17 Chardonnays, I have yet to try one. 🤔 I have found the previous vintages have a fuller body than the Chablis I have had. I absolutely agree, H.R. produces beautiful wines.
1/24/20, 9:11 AM - @pontifax I am on Vancouver Island, what store did you find the Boekenhoutskloof?
1/4/20, 7:44 PM - I have been waiting to try one of my bottles for three years now. This could be the year!
12/23/19, 3:30 AM - Would recommend a decanting tine?
12/14/19, 12:22 PM - How long did it take to open up?
12/15/19, 9:06 AM - Awesome! Thanks for the note.
12/1/19, 3:29 PM - Always appreciate your notes Francois.
10/27/19, 10:38 AM - I feel the same, a good CCR can be amazing. The value of this wine is crazy as well. The B.C. price of $25! Have you tried the Frescobaldi white wine?I see it listed in the BC liquor stores.
10/27/19, 11:33 AM - http://www.bcliquorstores.com/product-catalogue?search=frescobaldi%20nipozzanohttp://www.bcliquorstores.com/product/81477it looks a little suspicious, when I click on the bottle it provides a description of a red wine.
10/4/19, 8:51 AM - Thanks for the tasting note. The sediment reference is interesting, I have had several of the 14 Terleys and haven't experienced any sediment. Good to know, I have plans to open this bottle with our thanksgiving dinner👍🏼
9/28/19, 3:37 PM - I totally agree!
9/25/19, 5:46 PM - Great tasting note.
9/20/19, 9:15 PM - I agree, with moving the drink dates out a few more years.
9/15/19, 10:11 AM - It wasn't long ago that I use to pay $60 CDN for a bottle of Melchor. Now it's over $100 CDN. The price increase as well as the fact that there isn't that $100 WOW factor is the reason I don't buy it anymore.
8/24/19, 9:01 AM - Great note, I appreciate your view. I can't help think that most critics definition/descriptors are way out there. Parker was just first to hit the seen. I find that I am using the critics only to point out wines that I could look for. In terms of ratings, I would agree more with the CT family to rate a wine closer to it's point score. Same with the drinking window. On a critic's note, Suckling is a critic that I have lost all respect for.
8/5/19, 9:16 PM - WOW, a little British Columbia vineyard makes it to Tokyo! Have you tried the Checkmate Chardonnay's? Fabulous..
8/5/19, 11:17 AM - Where did you find this wine?I live in BC as well.
8/5/19, 4:50 PM - Vivino is offering some great deals. Unique wines as well. Thanks for the response.
8/5/19, 9:12 PM - I couldn't agree more!
7/7/19, 6:47 PM - How long did it take to open up?
7/7/19, 10:22 PM - 👍🏼😂
6/19/19, 9:38 PM - We drank out 2011 for Fathers day. I have been told that 2011 was a challenging year. The 2011 was a nice wine, but it wasn't what I expect from the St. Henri. Have you had the 2011 or a better question is, what is your opinion on the 2011 vintage as a whole?
6/4/19, 8:42 AM - $28.00? I paid $89.00 for this wine in Canada. That is how we pay for health care.
6/4/19, 7:26 PM - I picked it up through Everything Wine in BC. It was through a new Bordeaux release back in Sept. last year. If you paid $47 in Quebec, well done. Yip, it's confirmed. I have way over paid for this wine. I just reviewed my order.Chateau Tour Saint Christophe Saint Emilion Grand Cru 2015 Red Blend 750ml131180 $89.99Ordered 4Shipped 4$359.96
6/4/19, 9:04 PM - Your KILLING ME!
6/6/19, 9:22 PM - LOL!Thanks Francois, your comment help ease the sting of buying over price wine.Looking at Wine-Searcher, it could be pricing it because Everything Wine is the only retailer selling the wine at this time in our area.
6/2/19, 11:11 AM - Thanks Slim, your note gave me a little chuckle this morning.
Thanks for letting us know about this problem. We will review your comments and be in touch soon with an update.
