As usual, tasting notes were stuffed into our groaning database like presents into a stocking here on JancisRobinson.com in December, with a particularly high proportion of standalone notes (those that are not published in any of our tasting articles).

- A very good bottle of Latour 1990
- Authentic Australian Chardonnay from Caledonia in Gippsland
- The Gonzalez Byass Amontillado that Jancis drank on Boxing Day...
