Rare Print Series Eden Valley Chardonnay 2002 75cl
There are only two comments on the virginwines site about this wine and both give it 5 stars.
The trouble with any wine is 10 people could try it and give 10 different opinions ranging from superb to nat`s.
Happy slurping.

There are 3 bottles of that in my case which I've got to pop out and collect this morning.

Review may appear tomorrow!

Case contains:

3 Araldica Colle Rosa Arneis 2003    
3 Langhorne Creek Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2001    
3 Chateau Fort de Roquetaillade Graves Blanc 01/02    
3 Rare Print Series Eden Valley Chardonnay 2002  

An expensive case that was: £42.90 inc delivery.

Allegedly "worth" about £140.

For what it's worth, my opinion on the following,
Tolley Cellar Reserve Cabernet Shiraz 2001, 3 plus Stars

Rowan Shiraz Merlot 2003, 3 stars

Senorio de Sarria Tempranillo Crianza 2001, 1 Star (and it's lucky to get that!)

Still waiting to open Chateau Lamonthe

Drank a bottle of Rare Print Series Eden Valley Chardonnay 2002 last night.

£11.99 my !!!!!!....£5.99 also my !!!!!!.

Compares OK with £4 Chardonnays and no more.

A bit low on flavour as someone else mentioned.

Is that based on a maximum 5 stars (like hotels) or 3 stars (like Michelin guide)?

Loopdiloop, nice post count.

What was the point of that post - not trying to inflate your own post count, I hope? :P
