SB and the 2013 is very alright. Seems to be settled at £21/bottle in UK. For chardonnay you're better sticking to Burgundy, just imho, cos they have the right soil. A lot of SB flavour comes from the grape, whereas the chardonnay grape is a bit tasteless and the flavour comes from the soil (and the barrels)JFM, good to hear that the 2013 Cloudy Bay is up to snuff. Were you sampling the Sauv Blanc or Chardonay? Looking forward to cracking one open soon
Apols to all for the Fred Rift.
Thanks MrB. That is best price I've seen. I just ordered a replenishment
