re. Giaconda.
I managed to get some, but absolutely think their website is atrocious when purchasing.

On mobile, I got to purchasing page, entered 4 Chard and 2 PN. Wouldn't tally a total. Page crashed, refreshed, refreshed, refreshed. Total appeared, details filled in, couldn't tick to accept T&Cs. Crashed, refresh, refresh, refresh... CC hit and email. Website never recovered....

U scored the PN? Man- you must have been 8:01am Congrats

I see the Neldner 2022 Shiraz is up on Winestar at $23. I’ve tasted (and liked) the 2021, how does this compare to?

I felt 2022 was slightly more elevated than 2021 (in particular nose and structure), but Tony Love is on crack for giving it 98 points.

Glen Eldon Twisted Trunk Reserve Shiraz 2024 is out at Skye Cellars, $210/6 until sometime on Friday.

IMO Wine pilot scores way too high
If average wines score mid to high 90’s, there is nowhere to move.
Reminds me of an Italian critic, Luca Maroni who basically scores everything 98-99.
It becomes meaningless.
The Different Drop YouTube channel made fun of this trend by having a tasting session with scores out of 110
