Nice wines I have drunk recently - Red or White

[Cruiser Elite]

Is it worth trying or should I pass?

Don’t you cook?

Maybe you can recommend them a special dish that requires $90 wine too cook it

White sangria maybe?

And you and I both recently shared a Chardy that would have been best headed that way

Happy to organise a trade next time you're in Melbourne

And no floral overtones.

Normally I try to take better photos of the wines but the last two were lazy pics while watching the tennis and that plant was next to my drink.

It’s a decent Chardonnay placed between 311 and Bin A.

What's the issue with it?

This Trousseau should go quite nicely with the Bavarian fare I'm cooking up. Only 12.5% ABV too. Delicious!

I see the word ‘Jura’.

I cringe.

What's the issue with it?

I paid $120 for a wine that on first taste alone would not be worth $20

The Ette tasted it first and screwed her nose up - I had a couple mouthfuls and it just a very poor wine - first thoughts were there is something wrong here

Cork was perfect so no damage there but it just tastes like something is not right with it - for $120 it has to have a WOW factor about it but sadly no so back it goes

We did follow up with this which as we all know is a 100 bucker every day of the week

Just a bit of what I remembered to photograph that we've had, mainly over Christmas etc

It's the wine that keeps on giving. An added bonus

The MossWood 2018 is a cracker. Sold out at MossWood winery.
We had it last weekend at a birthday party.

Speaking of Jura - Ganevat tasting this week. Whites > Reds and the Sul Q/Macvin not my thing.

Plus YY event sitting next to Sarah Crowe. '11 Chard was cracking for what was meant to be a rather wet vintage.

Finishing up with some BYO at Oe-san. '13 Tyrrell's Vat 47 was showing really well.
