  1. Fantastic Southern Rhone inspired blend from California. It has a prime flavour of salinity, then stone fruit and flowers. Acidity is not prominent which is what I like in my whites. Easy to drink on its own, totally recommend. #wine #winelover #winetasting #winegeek

  5. At first it put me off with acidity and more acidity. After five minutes it mutated, and it turns out it's more tangerine. After another 5 minutes, a softer shy background appears, stone fruit. And finally, after a few more minutes, a sweet long honeysuckle finish completes the bouquet. Pale gold in colour, medium body.
    For being an entry level wine, it does great things although it has to improve on early first impressions 😂 #wine #winetasting #winelover #winegeek

  9. Brilliant wine, price/quality ratio is unbelievable. For a 9£ it has everything you need. Doesn't have much complexity, I tasted red berries and black peppers, more of background actors. Overall it's a great wine, would buy again. #wine #winetasting #winelover #winegeek

  13. #gnocchi alla sorrentina paired with #NizzaRiserva DOCG #Barbera #wine it was gorgeous. Woody, soft tannins, high acidity. Velvety and elegant. Absolutely gorgeous. #winelover #winetasting #winegeek #foodie

  17. For our #xmasdinner #christmasdinner we had a #Barolo and a #PouillyFume #wine. Both fenomenal. PF had flavours of hazelnut, passion fruit, honeysuckle. Barolo was more smokey, game-y and mushrooms. #winelover #winetasting #winegeek

  21. Exceptional. Strong, bold but easy to drink. Somewhat woody, plums, smoke. Not too deep in colour, medium finish. I bet it's great to elucubrate with friends. Absolutely recommend #wine #winetasting #winelover #winegeek

  25. The only grape so far that I haven't liked any bottles I tasted it's #CheninBlanc but I refuse to believe I can't find a grape I won't enjoy. Still looking into it. #wine #winetasting #winelover #winegeek

  29. #wine had a nice dinner with friends on Saturday. We started off with a #Soave classico, it was gorgeous. Soave is so underrated, people should really give it a go, one of the best whites from #italy. We then moved to a #Riesling and this was... Odd. The smell was putting us off a bit, reminded us of open fields and cattle. The taste saved it a bit, it was very honey rich. I'll try other Rieslings in the future, hopefully I'll find one more to my taste. #winelover #winetasting #winegeek

  33. Not a big fan of #Lidl #wine, I got this #Garnacha Old vine with the certainty it wouldn't have been to my taste and I'm happy to confirm I was wrong. It doesn't have the tobacco/smoke note you'd detect in most of the reds I go for, but it doesn't lack flavour nor taste. I've had it with burger and it went well together. My liking of #cannonau gave me curiosity to try more #grenache wines #winetasting #winelover #winegeek

  37. I'll be visiting a friend tomorrow and I've been selected to pick a #wine and bring it over. So I went to my "cellar" and checked what we had in stock. I have 16 bottles. And I'm ashamed to admit I thought "I got nothing in". #sorrynotsorry #winelover #winegeek

  41. First time ever I use a #decanter and large bowl wine glasses. Having this #Barbera with an appetiser of salami, cheese and crackers and then #pasta with #amatriciana. I didn't have the best impression of Barbera on my first try so this time decided to go for a Superiore. You do taste the difference. It doesn't have the complexity of a Nebbiolo but it's a great #wine! Taste of #blueberries and #smoke I'd say. #winetasting #winelover #winegeek

  45. This #Aglianico is great, especially considering its price and that it's from Aldi! A complex deep red, it filled the kitchen with liquorice, smoke, blueberries notes. This #wine does not need any comparisons with any other grapes, it should have the recognition it deserves! #winelover #winetasting #winegeek

  49. I knew #Majestic were a great merchant, but I still need to pinch myself into believing the No quibble policy. If you don't like a #wine, they'll replace it. We love their #Definition range, their house branded wine, great stepping stone to start exploring a new blend or grape. Sadly the #Zinfandel we tried was way too acidic and we were disappointed. I walked in store, I had already the bottle in mind and I was so lucky they actually had an open bottle for me to have a free taste. It tasted amazing, all the flavours you'd expect from a #Primitivo basically. Can't wait to open it for a nice dinner. #winelover #winetasting #winegeek #MajesticWine

  53. Nice video on #GermanWine, it's good to hear from producers from a country with such long history and yet possibly so neglected and stifled by bias. #wine #winegeek
