L'Ermitage Brut Anderson Valley Chardonnay Pinot Noir 2020

An easy drinking sparking wine from Anderson Valley in California.

Nicely balanced with nice complexity and mouthfeel. Crisp and fresh tasting.

Would be nice to revisit it in 3 to 5 years.

A nice sipping wine that will also pair nicely food.

A blend of 52% Chardonnay and 48% Pinot Noir. Disgorged in 2025.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

Napa County Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

Blackberry jam, raspberries, slight vanilla, not the biggest cab but bang for the buck is good, and it is reasonably balanced at “only” 13.7%. — 4 months ago

Art Series Margaret River Chardonnay 2019

Pale lemon in colour - crystal clear. Probably drinking this a little young even at 7 years of age. Initial funky notes amongst the nutty notes. At 7 years the oak is assimilating with the peach. Great intensity as you come to expect from the Art Series. At least another 5 plus years in the cellar would not be a problem. — 2 days ago

Aromas of fresh orchard fruit and ripe stone fruit, with pear and white peach at the forefront. Subtle ritual fruits as well. The palate shows more stone fruit richness with vanilla and hint of pie crust and seashell. Good acidic backbone. Clean lingering finish.

This is delicious and so easy to drink, but also quite sophisticated.

Drinking very nicely but a delicate wine. Need to swish it to get to taste the fruit and earth. Drink now - unclear benefits to aging further. — 2 months ago
