Three-and-a-Half Star Wines (*** ½) …
Chateau Montelena 2006 Chardonnay ($59.00 - #228601) – California, USA
Three-and-a-Half-Plus Star Wines (*** ½+) …
Domaine William Fevre 2009 Chablis ($23.00 - #226365) – Burgundy, France
Chateau Montelena 2006 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon ($134.00 - #228353) – California, USA
Four-Plus Star Wines (****+) …
Domaine Laroche 2009 Saint Martin Chablis ($23.95 - #365023) – Burgundy, France ... lovely crispt and clean Chardonnay with good fruit flavours of apple and pear, and good minerality; but it's the purity of fruit that makes this one stand out.
Catena Zapata 2007 Argentino Malbec ($95.00 - #207076) – Argentina
Key: Wine colour indicators - Red are red wines and Yellow are white wines.
