qotd: cant choose just 1
Gary that nail polish remover smell you got in the Nobilo was ethyl acetate created by bacteria in the wine and is definitely a flaw, as much as a “corked” wine or one affected with TCA would be a flawed wine. A smell that won't be getting any better with age.

QOTD: I havent had enough to really answer that, but I did have a Villa Maria a while back that while not impressive, was still a decent wine. I also had a Kim Crawford which was pretty decent as well, so I will def. be buying more in the future. Not scared of the cat pee!!!!

Best SB I had while I was in NZ (and I had quite a few) was Mount Riley.

I’m with you on the Kim Crawford, it’s not worth the price.

QOTD: I’ve not had any really great SB’s, but I will look for the Chasing Venus.

QOTD: Babich, 05 or 06 (don’t remember). Great classic NZ SB.

Speaking of, I’m heading to NZ for the first time in April, can’t wait!
