Mount Bluff M&S New Zealand sparkling wine NV.
Past its best yellow plum colour and very little fizz. A whiff of lemon and stone fruit on the palate. Very one dimensional and worth no more than its reduced price.
Pernand Vergelesses Premier Cru Les Fichots Domaine Rollin Père et Fils 2005.
Opened 3 to 4 hours before drinking after reading Mr Jaines note on CT. There was a rustic feel to it but the fruit was very much to the fore. Beginning to enter into maturity, there was a soupcon of sous bois, tart cherry and redcurrant, tannins integrated well and a fair lick of acidity. Decent length. On the second night the fruit was softer and more approachable. It was a very well balanced wine, with absolutely no rush to drink.
