Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

Theme last night was a Victorian odyssey. Each person had a different GI region from Victoria. What we certainly concluded is that Cabernet is not Victoria's strong point

Agree. I buy quite a lot of Victorian wines but almost never strait CS. There are some brilliant Bordeaux blend though.

Tasted the Savaterre 24 the other day at a Beechworth event. It will be brilliant in few years.

Hope you guys liked the Sorrenberg, it’s my favourite Aussie Gamay

We did but it's a bit of a novelty at that price point. It also doesn't exactly have too much competition of Aussie Gamay

FWIW the recent new release of the Adelaide hills Shaw and Smith Gamay is lovely.

I buy them direct, good value for the quality IMO as well as their Chardonnay which is a bit more expensive but worth it

Stunning Martinborough Chardonnay and red from Piemonte made by Australian.

Dark fruits with pronounced licorice and well integrated tannins

From a recent cellardoor.co purchase, wine in great shape. Cork crumbled. Durand to the rescue!

This was stunning at Yi in SIN. Cost made a little more approachable when the somm offered $100 of when I expressed interest, plus the Accor plus 15% discount and Amex restaurant voucher.
