Comment on: Ladies Who Shoot Their Lunch Riesling 2009

Expensive but Brilliant.

Beautiful golden colour on pouring the nose is as complex and interesting as the wine itself. Floral, citrus, spice and that slight petrol smell you get with Riesling.

It's fresh and dry in the mouth with those citrus and spice flavours coming through with a slight honeyness on the long finish.

A great treat and a wine that should impress most people.

It's OK. Fairly smooth but nothing particularly distinguishing about it.. Friends enjoyed it but not enough to warrant buying more.

It's OK. Quite fruity but not as smooth as I have become accustomed to. Thought it a bit pricey for what i is.

Fresh, dry and fruity. Went well with white fish.

Just missing that minerally edge I look for in a great white wine.

Comment on: Back Door Cape Monster Red 2005

With another monster red on the marketplace this week I thought it would be a good time to try this fella.

Decanted for eight hours the nose moved from alcohol to warm soft fruit.

Wonderfully complex, the balance is perfect. Fruit, oak, acidity and minerality working together to create a class act. Stick this with a lump of red meat and you're in for a treat.

Would love to know if this weeks marketplace offering is from the same stable because if it is then I'm getting two cases!
