I never take wine course but Robert Parker and Hugh Johnson.  Also, Oz Clark and james Holliday are good to learn.  The most important thing is to drink more with system and progress.  
Moreover, come here, Master Parklane is willing to teach us all the time.  
I am just a life long student of wine

One of the main criteria of Wine Spec. is " Value for money" so that is why they always recommends wine around 100HKD such as Paringa Shiraz or Colombia Crest
Grande Estate Chadonnay, cab sau or merlot. All are the all time favorite of Wine Spec which u can see them every year.
recently, no alcohol at all.....busy and busy, hope to touch my wine ASAP.
Nice to see u all keep this thread.

THx for your report Zeidt!  
i am very busy recently and don;t have wine for a long time.
I have idea to call u all out with one bottle each person.
I hope i can arrange it soon.
Hope to meet u all.
Happy new year!
Good wine for good life!

Columbia Crest Grande Estate serious.
i like the Chardonnay most.

For Merlot below $300.......No idea other than CC.  Should choose Area such as Western Aust or Washington. Dry climate and more layers.
If u like big and fat wine, Napa, South Aust such as Hunter Valley should be considered.
One of the interesting area to explore is the South France, there are many new world style new products in the market recently such as Abbott or Michel Lunch Circus.
Enjoy 2007 with lower tax.

Master Parklane has come back!!!

Some 2003 Bordeaux have been marketed. i have a bottle d Guaurd Larose second 2003 from Watson's but not yet tried. only 299.

Potent Canet
Pavillon 2nd of margaux
Lascombe
Gurard Larose
Branaire Ducru
Leoville Poyferre
Lagona Barton
La fort de latour
latour
Caurade de lafite
those are my interested label except Lascombe, from their change and Mark from Parker,  u can predict what is inside, really Parker full body wine with lots of fruit.

Penfolds 128, Australia 2001, 2002
Penfolds 407, Australia 2001, 2003
Penfolds St. Henri's, Australia 2001
Why not 389? 98, 01 and 02 are very good choice esp 98, has become one of its legend.

My new daily drinking choice of white
South Africa Chenin Blanc. Dry, cripsy and floral with tropical fruit.  Taste like Pinot Grigio.
Very cheap from supermarket. Only around 50 to 80.
Kumala is a good choice.

707 is Cab Sau
389 is Cab Shiraz blend.
Diff to me.
I seldom drink Aus. single Cab Sau. 707 is good but too powerful to me.

骨浪兄,歡迎,得閒多d上來


等你(加埋支酒)返香港食飯

要飲埋茶仔................喎!!

just had a pichon lalande 1998.
tobacco, coffee, black fruit and black berries.  no wonder.
only 30 min breath and falling after 1.5 to 2 hrs.  become more acidic.
all expected.

just for the reason of make up, unless at Riva suggested by Dejavu, i never open wine from the restaurant

due to the new rules for bringing liquid to air craft, i did not buy any wine back from US and i was selected to be ssss for checking lagguage, so bad.  Had some wine there for dinner but no impression.
I opened a bottle called Wild Oak of St Francis, Sonoma. just ok. fruity and a bit drier that those Napa stuff. 67 US dollar

whatever u bring out, is good to the poor guy like me..ar Tai is rich, he spends a lot for tea...hehe

Let's have fun in July!!

我又覺得, 如果同一款酒而你又有幾支既話, 未熟時就開黎飲都係好既, 因為反而可以睇到支酒的變化, 到過幾年再飲又會有另一種體會嘛

走私的...哈哈,得1支
