Best vintage ever?

Industry observers with a cynical view or a long-term memory (and especially both, which disqualifies me) will remember countless ‘best vintages ever’ from around the country, in Bordeaux or wherever. Sandro Mosele, president of the Mornington Peninsula Vignerons Association, has joined the queue. He says ‘For me 2010 is the best vintage ever. We have produced the style of wines that we hope to make every year.’ Martin Spedding, general manager of 10 Minutes by Tractor, also got in on the act saying ‘2010 is a great year and caps off a wonderful run of vintages since 2003, it really has been a golden era for the Peninsula that augurs well for the next decade.’
