2006 The White, The John Forrest Collection

from Adnams (White Wine) 3. April 2010 00:11
"The 2005 is still ageing gracefully and, even though I say it myself, it is one of the most alluring Kiwi whites I have ever tasted. I had no hand in this 2006, but it is incredible, and the 2007 which follows is perhaps the best ever." [More]

from Adnams (Red Wine) 3. April 2010 00:04

2005 Rioja Crianza, Monte Acuro

from Adnams (Red Wine) 2. April 2010 23:02

Madiran Plenitude 2005

from Adnams (Red Wine) 2. April 2010 22:49
