Thank you Mike and Matt. Between '22 & '23, CellarTracker has ratings of 90.8 and 93.5 respectively. Is '23 really that better than '22?

Curious to know which vintage to get. Thanks in advance!

A light month. Only two bottles of Moss Wood Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. The store was having inventory sale and offered 35% off for three consecutive vintages of '17, '18 & '19. I picked up the newest vintage. Did I choose right?

Just curious. Would you mind sharing the price and if it's S or N version?

Thanks. I have to admit I haven't opened it yet. It may be a one-off buy, curiosity, hoarding instinct and all that, but is is going into the cellar as I'm sure it is far too young to drink, I have a few older bottles of Grenache that are a little bit older that could use drinking, in particular a p...

I'm desperately trying not to buy anymore red wines that need cellaring, however an occasional wine at a good price draws my attention and one such wine was Yangarra's Old Vine Grenache . It was an online offer and it is either the 2017 or 2018 - I won't know till I pick it up from the store - C$28...

E. Pira Chiara Boschis "Mosconi" Barolo 2016- In the background in the snap below, sits a better bottle of three Malvira Roero Nebbiolos reported on earlier. The contrast to Chiara’s winemaking and viticulture is dramatic. The art of elevage is rarely apparent for me in the other Nebbiolo...

The 15 Mosconi excellent so I’m guessing 16 a ripper ! I bought some too. I actually have the 16 via Nuova from Chiara on the tasting bench. Mosconi is a vineyard that takes time due fierce tannin - winemaking and a little bit of barrique can soften. Wouldn’t be in a rush to try but who knows with ...

Thanks Jamie. Is Alessandria a traditionalist? I also have a few bottles of Sandrone Le Vigne '13. When do you think a good time to drink? Min. 15 years from vintage, assuming good storage?
