This month Wine Spectator Magazine released their list of the top 100 most exciting wines of 2011. On publication these much sought-after, exceptional wines disappear quickly, based on their high ranking but we have managed to score more than a dozen of these prestigious, now almost impossible to find wines (some very limited in total production). We have been featuring them all by the glass or bottle on our everyday list, and now in a Friday Night Flight tasting. Wines may include:
(ws#70) Chardonnay “Un-Oaked~Monterey” Morgan 2010 (California)
(ws#87) Greco di Tufo “Loggia della Serra” Terra Dora di Paolo ’10 (IT)
(ws#42) Alfrocheiro/Tinta Roriz/Touriga Naçional “Dão~doc” Cabriz 2008 (Portugal)
