Some 15 years ago I was the distributor for @eldri

Some 15 years ago I was the distributor for @eldridgeestate. @fesqco is now their distributor. Knowing intricately how good these wines are, I didn't hesitate to grab an allocation. It gives me great pleasure to reacquaint myself with these sublime Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays. 👌🍷

A much needed mental R&R away from civililisation

A much needed mental R&R away from civililisation after a pretty crappy 2020. Four days of awesome fly fishing and seclusion. Onwards and upwards moving forward!

Latest counterfeit bottle I recently authenticated

Latest counterfeit bottle I recently authenticated in Australia. Authentic 1999 DRC La Tache Magnums are worth around $18,000+. Sadly for this owner the bottle is worth Zero 😢. Please don’t be complacent, there are PLENTY of fakes in Australia! #RareWineFraud #WineAuthentication #BuyerBeware #FakeDRC #FakeLaTache

2013 Vietti Barolo Castiglione only 25 bottles of

2013 Vietti Barolo Castiglione only 25 bottles of this ripper wine available for sale, visit www.rarewine.com.au “The 2013 Barolo Castiglione is rich, powerful and intense, especially for what is the estate's entry-level Barolo. Dark cherry, plum, spice, new leather and menthol are all used together. Intense and voluptuous, the Castiglione shows the richer, more intense side of the vintage. Time in the glass helps release the aromatics and the brighter side of Nebbiolo. Quite simply, the 2013 is a super Barolo Castiglione that is starting to close the qualitative gap with the single vineyard Barolos.” 93+ Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous # #rarewine #rarewines #barolo #vietti

2009 Elvio Cogno Barolo Bricco Pernice Just crack

2009 Elvio Cogno Barolo Bricco Pernice

Just cracked this Barolo to compliment our mushroom risotto dinner tonight.
Such a seductive red fruit driven nose, and so approachable for a young Barolo already with moderate tannin at best. Class act! Won't be a long lived Barolo but at 7 years of age it's drinking beautifully now.
We have 5 bottles still available so visit www.rarewine.com.au before I happily drink them all!

2009 Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Cannubi San Lorenzo *

2009 Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Cannubi San Lorenzo **only 6 bottles available**
“The 2009 Barolo Cannubi San Lorenzo/Ravera emerges from the glass with sweet red berries, leather, licorice, menthol and sweet spices, all supported by fine, silky tannins. I very much like the sense of energy and vibrancy Rinaldi was able to achieve in 2009, no small feat. The Cannubi San Lorenzo/Ravera has excellent color, freshness, vibrancy, and above all else superb balance. It is easily one of the highlights of the year.” 95 points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

Giuseppe Mascarello Barolo Monprivato 2010 (Magnum

Giuseppe Mascarello Barolo Monprivato 2010 (Magnum) **only 2 available** “(this was a treat Mascarello pulled from cask at the end of my tasting): Medium red. Knockout nose showcases tangy red fruits, minerals and porcini. Conveys an impression of superb concentration and dusty extract, with the tactile solidity of the best young 2010s already coming through in spades. A wine of great length and potential. I'll play the interventionist wine writer and wonder out loud why this won't be bottled for another year. But as devil's advocate to my devil's advocate, 2010 is one vintage that generally has the extract and energy to benefit from an extended elevage.” 93-96 points, Stephen Tanzer Vinous

2009 Ata Rangi Pinot Noir My favourite Pinot Noir

2009 Ata Rangi Pinot Noir
My favourite Pinot Noir from New Zealand, and no it's not from Central Otago, rather it's from Martinborough. This wine regularly matches it with the best of Burgundy, yet at a smidgen of the price a Grand Cru Burgundy would cost you. Awesome wine! Be quick, only 6 bottles left

Roberto Voerzio Barolo Brunate Riserva Capalot e d

Roberto Voerzio Barolo Brunate Riserva Capalot e delle 2008 (Magnum)
$1,100.00
“The 2008 Barolo Brunate is beautifully balanced from start to finish. Freshly cut flowers, mint, licorice, hard candy and dark red fruit are layered in this utterly impeccable Barolo. Waves of fruit build toward a huge, dramatic finish supported by serious tannins, yet the Brunate remains one of the more understated wines here. The Brunate is all about length, weightless elegance and an elusiveness that is only matched by the greatest Burgundies. This is a dazzling effort. Readers should expect the Brunate to take the better part of a decade to become expressive. Following the Brunate over the course of several days was immensely rewarding.” 98 points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

“The 2010 Barolo Lazzarito is impeccably polishe

“The 2010 Barolo Lazzarito is impeccably polished, silky and refined, especially for a Serralunga Barolo. Mint, violets, black fruit, smoke and deep layers of spices are some of the many notes that flesh out on the inviting, textured finish. Today, the Lazzarito is incredibly primary to the point of being raw and undeveloped, but it is explosive, bursting with energy and flat-out great. This is also the first recent vintage I can remember tasting where the French oak is more in line with the other single-vineyard Barolos.” 96 points, Antonio Galloni Vinous

1996 Dom Perignon Oenotheque “The 1996 Dom Péri

1996 Dom Perignon Oenotheque “The 1996 Dom Pérignon Oenothèque has really come around since I last tasted it some months ago. Up until recently, the 1996 was hard as nails. Over the last few months things have developed for the better, as the fruit is now much more expressive, within the context of the year, of course. The 1996 Oenothèque remains compact, but today there is great beauty to be found in the yellow stone fruit, slate, white flowers and lightly honeyed overtones that grace the finish.” 97 points, Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, May 2014 “Disgorged 2008, this is wonderfully meaty, substantial wine still with the vintage’s marked acidity but now tamed and counterbalanced by much more flesh and creaminess. Nothing remotely soft about this but lots of struck match character still and ramrod straight in structure. Should go on for many a long year but the texture is fantastic – just the merest hint of brioche too. A majestic, rather intellectual wine.” 19 points, Jancis Robinson “This shows amazing freshness and depth of fruit while remaining agile and very clean. Full body, dense and layered on the palate. Goes on for minutes with each sip. Lots of mineral and chalk character too. A fabulous Champagne. A blend of half Pinot Noir and half Chardonnay.” 100 points James Suckling

2000 Cos d'Estournel "#2 on the Top 100 Wines of 2

2000 Cos d'Estournel "#2 on the Top 100 Wines of 2003, Collectibles* Absolutely gorgeous on the nose, with currants, blackberries and freshly cut flowers. Full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins and a solid core of fruit. This goes on and on on the palate. The essence of class and refinement. Relatively good value, considering the superb quality. No better Cos since 1989" (3/2003) 96 points Wine Spectator

2005 Mommessin Clos de Tart "This hasn’t changed

2005 Mommessin Clos de Tart "This hasn’t changed much from when I first reviewed it from bottle in 2007 though it has not shut down in the fashion of many ’05s at this point. An expressive and very ripe black berry fruit, spice, mocha, fresh coffee and earthy nose is surrounded by a more moderate touch of oak that continues onto the rich, full, concentrated, powerful and sweet flavors that possess superb mid-palate density and huge length. This is an extremely rich and concentrated wine that will live for ages and in fact, about the only thing that has changed is that it appears even more structured than I initially thought. In a word, fantastic" Try from 2025+. (11/2009) 96 points Allen Meadows – Burghound "Very dark crimson. Meaty, concentrated, wonderfully intense nose that is still very expressive even if on the palate the wine is a little closed with quite tense tannins. Lovely sweet aromas and nicely braced for a glorious future. Still rather dry on the finish but I am very optimistic about this glorious wine – concentrated but expressive" Drink 2014-2033.
