Bonnes-Mares
More power and structure. Dark fruit, spice, and earth.
Firm when young, majestic with time.
Few names. Absolute quality.

To the eagled eyed who saw my earlier post this is from Tesco not Morrisons.
Botrytis Semillon at its richest. Honeyed peaches. There's a good biting acidity that helps. Fab with Manchego.
#BlueskyWine
#TescoUK £7 half bottle.
True to its name. Butter, oak, peach, pear. Lovely and rounded. There's a little acidity to balance.
#BlueskyWine
#MajesticUK £16 in a mixed 6.
Lots of juicy black fruit with hints of smoky wood and a touch of tannin. The bubbles keeps it refreshing. Brilliant.

#Morrisons Block Series 010 Cabernet slSauvignon. Napa Valley.
Plum, prune nose with hints of leather, clove.
Blackcurrant flavour, woody notes, tannin.
Not as concentrated as nose suggests. Long finish with a big hit of alcohol.
Enjoyable.
Hey #BlueskyWine
#MorrisonsUK Block Series 012 Riesling. Ancient Lakes Washington State.
White Peach and pear.
Enjoyable.
I can't believe that #BlueskyWine isn't more of a thing here.
Here's tonight's wine.
#Morrisons The Best Barossa Shiraz. Full bodied naturally. Big on alcohol 14.5%. Black fruit aromas and hints of rose petal! Silky. Savoury flavours. 7.5/10 on my scale.

#PinotNoirRosé, Yay or Nay?
I love Pinot Noir and Blanc de Noirs but rosé seems a bit pointless.

Lawson's Dry Hills Riesling has a plume of accolades and is officially rated as one of the top Rieslings from New Zealand. At just £13.75 a bottle this is a steal www.christopherpiper...

What to have with fish ? Well, today our wine of choice would be Picpoul from Domaine Saint Peyre. Dry, crisp and fragrant, with a distinctive nutty nuance, it also makes the most delicious aperitif.

Don't forget. Our magnums of Chateau Cavalier Provence Rosé are still on offer at £24.50, down from £32.50. This is a wonderfully fruity pale pink, full of summer berry fruits and ideal for a long lunch.

Easter Pinot Noir....lusciously soft and fruity Bourgogne Pinot Noir from Chateau de la Charriere fits the bill very nicely. At £21.50 per bottle (5% off 12 bottles, can be mixed), it's a soft and easy drinking Burgundy.

Wines with fish. We love a really good Muscadet. This one is only made in excellent years. Intense, peachy fruit aromatics lead in to an intriguing richly textured, mineral mid-palate with a creamy lemon meringue pie finish.

Food for Saturday. It's hard to match a good spag bol because of the tomato and the garlic flavours. We think a robust chianti is the answer.

Our Mosel Riesling from Romerhoff Weinkelleri is drinking superbly well, with lovely lime-fresh fruit and a touch of honey.

An utterly gorgeous Sauternes from Maison Sichel -a remarkably rich, complex wine. The bouquet is a beguiling combination of jammy fruit, bitter orange, apricot jam with a hint of spice and elegant toasty notes. Amazing value at £16

Even through my cold I can still smell a faint summery tang of fresh rhubarb. Portuguese rosé at it's best.

Putting together a New Zealand promotion for two weeks in May. Lots of exciting wines to choose from - different varietals, different islands and different wineries. #watchthisspace #blueskywine #bluewine #skywine #newzealandwine
I haven't cracked the box but it's full of bottles of Chateau d'Yquem 2005. The wine has a phenomenally complex bouquet, confirming the extraordinary quality of the vintage.
