Dale Williams always has interesting dinners, so I thought I would post the
wines we drank last night and also pose a question.

1988 Leo Buring Eden Valley Riesling - drinking very nicely, with just a
hint of kerosene that these old Aust. rieslings often get. Wine of the night
for me
1981 Les Clos Moreau - excellent wine. Right at its peak
1994 Moillard Clos Des Grandes Vignes (Nuits St Georges). I know the
negotiant but not the vineyard*. Too much tannin which overpowered the
fruit. Ok, but not a great drink.
1986 Moss Wood Cabernet (West Aust). Lovely ripe fruit characters. Still a
long way to go.
1985 Ch. Margaux. Excellent wine, very slight touch of brown on the
meniscus, but a lovely long aftertaste.
1986 Rabaud Pomis (Bommes). Good match for desert. Just a hint of botrytis.

Its nice we have byo restaurants left in Australia - $15.00 Aud per bottle
corkage on these wines is very reasonable in my opinion.
* Does anyone know this vineyard and can tell me something about it?
