2004 La Rioja Alta Rioja Viña Ardanza Reserva
10/17/2022 - Chris Jephcott Likes this wine: 94 Points
One of my absolute favourites - a gorgeous aged Rioja from one of the famous Rioja Bodegas and it’s a treat.
Aromas of oak, vanilla, leather and cherry with a hint of smoke
Taste: Rioja perfection. Evolves beautifully with air time, initially wood and oak, moving into vanilla and cigar box before the red fruit erupts like a dance on the tongue. Chocolate and pepper background notes throughout the entire development.
Perfection. Beautiful. Lovely wine.

2020 Pawis Bacchus Trockener Qualitätswein b.A
7/3/2022 - Chris Jephcott wrote: 93 Points
This is another gem from Pawis, in Saale-Unstrut. Me and my wife love Bacchus as a grape, particularly with it’s growth in the U.K. - however, the opportunity to taste this from one of my favourite German producers was just too good to say no to!
Aromas: peach, pear, apple, elderflower
Taste: peach, apricot, pear and passion fruit with a hint of melon. Refreshing acidity and long aftertaste.
This is a wonderful wine - if you love Sauvignon Blanc, try this!

2020 Willi Haag Riesling Grauschiefer Alte Reben trocken
7/2/2022 - Chris Jephcott Likes this wine: 90 Points
This is beautiful.
Slightly slightly off dry - just enough to be noticeable.
Tastes of pineapple, stone fruit, peach and apricot with a hint of lemon zest. Long finish and refreshing acidity.
An excellent Riesling.
