Hmmmm... Sunday nights are going to be good when I'm within walking distance of your place next year.

Maybe move somewhere a little further away from a nursing home

Some say one shouldn’t cellar SV but this cellared in wine fridge for many years is very interesting wine. Still good fruit, surprisingly, lemon limes, like an old Sancerre.


Edit other options “ An excellent vintage. A little darker but still green and bright. Toasty, nutty, like an aged Riesling in a way, lovely sheen and creaminess, and this made in all stainless steel. All those pungent SB characters now mellowed and subdued. The palate is superb, sweet orchard fruits, hints of melon, maybe kiwi fruit or melon, delicious juiciness of grapefruit and lemon. Lovely balance too, quite surprising for a 2006 wine, delightful concentration and intensity, balanced to the finish. A real treat to taste this”

Perverting the great Loire SVs with a red?

Need to open a Grant Burge tomorrow, blind tasting would a 2009 Shadrach or 2022 Meshach be more enjoyable?

I tried the 2022 Meshach recently and it's very tight, you would need a long decant. I would vote on the 2009 Shadrach.

I tried the 2022 Meshach recently and it's very tight, you would need a long decant. I would vote on the 2009 Shadrach.

Went with the Shadrach, was presently surprised, very nice. Much better than last bottle about 5 years ago so won't hold back finishing the last 4bottles.

So the 22 Meshach might take at least as long, could be my wake wine .
