About Me

I'm just your average guy with a love and passion for wine. I enjoy touring and tasting as well as collecting wines. My current cellar sits around 350 bottles which fluctuates dependent on occasions and if I find a bargain. My preference for drinking as you will discover as this blog grows is to big bold Shiraz, Tempranillo, Sangiovese and the occasional Rosé on a summers day. Although they are the wines I love I definitely appreciate all wines and give my descriptions/recommendations based on the quality and taste of the wine not based on my personal preference to the grape variety, I will drop my opinion in there to help those few out who simply want to be told good or not good. Good luck with your purchases and I hope I can help. Happy drinking.

2011 Redbank Sunday Morning Pinot Gris

What an interesting wine. Brilliant clarity with a pale straw tinge. Lightly floral nose with pear and stone fruit undertones. Zippy little palate again with the pear an a distinct minerality that really carries this wine. Easy drinking is the biggest highlight and hardly a serious Pinot Gris that the tasting notes suggest.

Simply put you can definitely drink this lil baby it's smooth and easy going with nothing abrupt, nice fruit and minerality.

Critic wise this lays probably in the mid to high 80's and for me I'm there abouts too 8.5 is the best I can manage.

Summary... Drinkable yes, $22 umm probably can find better but don't shy away cause it is worth it.
