Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

[JohnM]

Tonight's wine - quite young but nice spicy tannins.

Plus gratuitous glass cough shot to relieve JohnM's concerns while we are waiting...

When did you last wash the one in the middle .

This one is an unexpected gem - $20 from local Chambers, and is really a well developed smooth 2008 Shiraz.

For JohnM, lakeside luncheon and a Marq Serious Rose, amongst others!

Rolled lamb individual roasts, vege and & desserts!

Had trouble with the upload, and finished up making it too small.

A Rostrevor Coonawarra Shiraz 2008.

These have been sent to the angels over the last week or so.



The 2008 Isolation Ridge was only barely showing signs of aging characters - years left in it.

The Burn Cottage (2009) and the Freycinet (2010) were fuller styles than the Sinapius (2010), which was very light, but quite elegant. Of the first two, PJM and I preferred the Freycinet (she did not participate in the Sinapius which I had over two successive nights early in the week).

The Bremerton (2013) is fruity and fresh and needs more age.

I'm game! '99 Noble One and 2000 VF. (Well that's what I'd have.)

Almost seems you were looking over my shoulder. One is correct, the other has the correct Producer but not vintage

I see no glasses .

Here you go

That's what happens to them after many years of washing... Still taste the same though!

Thick skinned we are here on AFF Wine forums!

Besides, the glass is still a well used Reidel Vinum 6416/33 (I think!). And wrt how could that be when there's a whole specially built cupboard just for the glasses!

2000 Vasse Felix Noble Riesling and homemade lemon tart.

BC my neck now has a permanent kink. We know your better than this. Edit pics in photos and do a small crop and rotate if needed and will come out correct orientation.



But nice wine in any view!

Well, obviously, you made the wrong choice!

You need to train your glass washer better... - or stop putting the good glassware in the dishwasher .

No - the 20th Noir Feline just needs to hold the phone at the correct orientation .
