Wines tasted:

Cave de Gortona 2008 Pinot Noir 100%
Vin de Pays du Val de Loire - Thauvenay-en-Sancerre, France

Great nose, with earthy, cranberry, ripe red berries and licorice. Good mouth feel with cranberry, licorice, good acid!

I’m liking this wine - I urge you to get some and taste it. It’s well worth it.

Price is around 9,99 euros in Finland.

Wolfberger W3 - Riesling 50%, Muscat 30%, Pinot Gris 20%
Alsace - Eguisheim, France

Good nose with starfruit, leechy and floral notes. Rather bland mouth feel, oily with fruit and leechy components. Not to my liking and rather disappointing wine from Alsace, would have hoped to be better, specially with these grape varieties.

Price is 9,99 euros in Finland.

I wouldn’t urge you to buy it - try it if you wish. Just boring!
