Dinner at Hotel du Vin, Henley-on-Thames

19 September 2007

 

2002 Chardonnay “La Combe”, Cotes du Jura, Domaine Ganevat

Wonderfully unique and individual. A “gout de vas”, dry and tightly focused. Truly expressive.

 

2003 Springfield’s The Work of Time, South Africa

14% Bordeaux blend from Robertson. Huge expressive nose with a restrained, fresh and elegant palate. Good acidity. Done in a very Old World style. Well-made. Good finish.

 

2004 Willi Opitz Weisser Schilfmandi Muscat Ottonel Schilfwein

Unctuous and luxurious will stunningly crisp acidity.
