Hunter Sémillon, Australia's great gift to the wine world - I love it! I consider myself extremely fortunate to have picked up a few bottles of 2019 Mount Pleasant Sémillon 1946 Vines Lovedale Vineyard. I must wait, though, many years. What a treat it will be! I must try and try to stay alive!😊

I didn't sleep *again* last night. I wrote a post for Elitistreview.com (that will go online tomorrow at 08:45GMT) that I thought was interesting and funny as I wrote it. After a night of editing and altering I have read it countless times and think it is hackneyed, clichéd and trite.

I had an amazing wine earlier: 2020 Peter Lauer Ayler Kupp Riesling Spätlese N°23 Auction. Such intensity, such power, and yet light as a feather, incredibly energetic and supremely elegant. Transcendental Riesling. Being alive is better than the alternative!
