Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

Back to Toppys for a top up last night - 1 misfit from previous night was doing has darndest to atone but still a lot of ground to make up for him

I don't think it is a Zalto, at least not the standard Burgundy glass which I have. Bowl is too bulbous. I've seen these somewhere (else) but can't actually place the maker.

Thank you. On reflection I feel like I can possibly see a Spiegelau logo on the base, but I agree the bowl looks unusual (albeit it could just be the angle/perspective of the photo).

How was the Astralis?
People write it off as "but it's 2011" but I think it's has the pedigree to carry it thru.

Do you mind me asking what glass that is? Looks beautiful.

It’s Speigelau Definition. My go to glassware for Burgs.
I do have Zalto but I’m down to my last two after few accidents so now I keep them for special occasions / fancy Burgs.

Second bracket of Chardonnay 2016 (and couple of Burgs).
Same as the previous bracket most of the bottles were courtesy of @qaz who was again very generous.
Dinner this time was at Best Chinese Restaurant in Melbourne | David's Prahran

Yep. Knackered! and I was the DD, so spat most !

Trying the other one tonight. Supposedly the best. Double the price and still very closed, bitter tannins, stems? But improving with time,
