Cellier du Rhone 2006

*****

Maven Sauvignon Blanc

*****

Another fantastic Sauv from Marlborough in NZ. More melon and less gooseberry than others. Drop the oak?

Saintsbury Garnet Carneros Pinot Noir 2006

*****

This is a really delicious red wine from California. Light red in colour, its raspberry/strawberry flavours really stand out.

James Nicholson Wine Merchant Online Store

*****

I bought a selection of wines recently from James Nicholson Wines Online as I was bored with the usual selection in my local off licences and supermarkets. I was interested in particular in some Californian, Chilean or New Zealand Pinot Noirs and...

Villa Maria Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2006

*****

I found this wine too heavy and peppery-spicy to drink on its own. It's probably better suited to drinking with food. Cherry, oak tones just a bit too over powering for me. #wine

Carta Vieja, Organic Pinot Noir 2004, Aconcagua Valley, Chile

*****

This one's all about the Cherry Coke. In fact, it's the most cherry-like wine I've ever had. There's also a bit of smokiness but not much else. It's very very very smooth, fruity with a long finish,...

Cordillera Red Wine, Miguel Torres, Chile, 2004

*****

Made primarily from old Carinena vines, this very drinkable red wine from Chile ticks a lot of boxes. 63% Carinena, 21% Merlot & the 16% Shiraz combination works well to provide a wine which is intensely ruby in colour yet complex with a lengthy
