We had the 2010 Vintage on 8/19-20/23. A wonderful wine. Full bodied but still Old World. The bouquet was very Bordeaux with aroma of graphite, tobacco and cigar box. Blackberry, plum on the palate. Real good for a second label — 2 years ago
I consumed my stocks of this dozen way too soon. I had the first bottle 209 weeks ago and now only have 1 left which I will leave until 2027 when 10 years old. Currently stacks of citric acid - lemon and lime. A whiff of Granny Smith Apple. Rob Diletti also makes the Riesling for his near neighbour Dukes which win awards left right and centre - 99 points from Halliday for the Dukes. — 3 years ago
Pale lemon in color.
Strong nose of apples, lemons, limes, minerals and light diesel notes.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with a touch of RS to balance it out. Showing citrus, apples, pears, light earth, light diesel, limes, light grapefruits herbs and sea salt.
Tangy finish with limes and herbs.
This 4 year old Riesling from Spring Mountain is starting to drink nicely now, but needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Spicy and entertaining.
I've had a few vintages of this wine, and so far the 2018 vintage is my favorite one.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex and interesting.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food. Crisp and better when not too cold.
13.2% alcohol by volume.
91 points.

Funny story. I took this bottle in my luggage to Florida. Bubble wrapped the heck out of it and it still broke. Lesson learned. Reminds me of some the middle to late 90 Burgundies that I have had but this is only 5-6 years old. Not sure how much life it has left but it’s good now. — 2 years ago

2008: at 15 years old: still so bright and energetic. Buttered toast, orchard apple, stone on nose. Bright acidity accompanied by fine effervescent bubbles, creamy lemon and Granny Smith apple predominate palate with nice lengthy finish….shoulda waited to open but appreciate the tension and exuberance. — 3 years ago
A beautiful if lean Chardonnay that really needs a few years before opening. My wife didn’t like it and European with a European palate. Mineral, slate, smoke, orange pith, unripe pomegranate. Give it a few years and caramel will emerge and it will be beautiful. — 3 months ago
Wow. If this was blind - I would’ve guessed 20 year old Bordeaux. Super complex and combo of tannins, fruit, meat, and some tobacco. Crazy. Nothing like I remember it from last bottle we had 10 years ago — 2 years ago
Samuel Smith's Organic Pale Ale is a nice pint. Amber coloured with a good but not over frothy bread. Bready, malty, and with a hint of caramel complimented by light carbonation.
A good traditional pale ale from one of England's oldest and finest brewers. — 3 years ago
