Domaine Pabiot Les Vieilles Terres Pouilly Fumé 2010, Ac
Loire, France$21.95
Opened this along with the Dog Point from Nz tonight, to compare while making a snow pea risotto to pair with.
This was mineraly but with the mid-belt weight and complex fruit of a balanced new world SB. Best of both worlds, this soared given the length and complexity, especially in direct comparison with the Dog Point.

Penley Estate Hyland Shiraz 2014, Coonawarra
South Australia, Australia$14.25
Not getting it. Not jammy, but also lacks any depth. Not flabby but over acidified, almost artificial. Short finish
Love other producers' Coonawara cabs but this is an also ran. Tried 2 different bottles from different stores. Returning the rest

Domaine Grand Veneur Clos De Sixte 2009, Ac Lirac
Rhône, France$24.95
Still alcoholic, but well integrated. On it's downward trajectory, with youthful jam and fat replaced by mature funky but enjoyable complexity and a touch of oxidation

André Blanck Altenbourg Gewürztraminer 2012, Ac
Alsace, France$18.95
No longer huge but well evolved, very long, complex, with classic flavours.
Excellent balance with alcohol providing just a touch of heat, and enough viscosity counterbalancing the depth of flavour
