Ben Casteel's top Estate Chardonnay was a stunner on release in 2020 and is even better with four years in bottle. This is rich and creamy enough for California Chardonnay fans, mineral and vibrant enough... Read More
If you’re looking for subtlety, grace and restraint…this ain’t that. Instead it’s the kind of gutsy, chewy, bold red you get from old bush-vine Garnacha on the high plains of Spain with a splash of Syrah... Read More
Lower ABV Christian Bellei is, as Vinous said recently, one of the true Lambrusco di Sorbara masters. A 4th generation Lambrusco maker, Bellei continues his father's innovation of making Lambrusco in the Champagne method -... Read More
Once again, a terrfic value! Dark black raspberry, plum, purple flowers, cocoa powder and dusty mineral scents are just some of the aromas showing on the complex nose. As in past releases, there's plenty of dark raspberry... Read More
Vines were already planted here in 1466 when Jehan de Las Symas purchased them from a neighbor based in Saint Emilion (just a few miles away). Today Jean de Boigne continues his family's 160+ year stewardship of the grapes... Read More
Organic/Bio Ch Pradeaux is one of Bandol's standard-bearers, crafting unapologetically old school reds from Mouvedre and a splash of Grenache grown in the heart of the region. Fermentation is in vat and aging is in enormous,... Read More
About 65% Cabernet Sauvignon and 35% Merlot, the second wine of Clos du Marquis delivers a lovely sense of depth and richness to go with a fine, firm, structured spine. Decant now or cellar through 2035.
Going a bit old-school here in a Malbec that has plenty of lush fruit framed by spicy oak (1/3 new). The high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza's Uco Valley brought this to perfect ripeness. A big mouthful of wine for beef and... Read More
As Wine Advocate wrote, The more I drink the Bachelet bothers' wines, the more I admire them... The [2018] wines have turned out beautifully: long élevage has worked its magic and the wines have picked up plenty of... Read More
Montalcino’s 2018 vintage was a tough one, with unusually cool weather limiting ripeness and lower than usual concentration meaning “normal’ oak and aging programs risked wiping out the wines. Which made it a... Read More
It's always a treat to get our hands on Willamette Valley Pinot that's all the way ready to drink - even better when the wine is as good as this! At five years from harvest, there's a nicely earthy tone to the ripe... Read More
766 bottles (63 cases) made. “Quasi Centenaria” roughly translates to “about 100 years old,” a reference to this gnarly old Carignan vineyard planted right around 1919. The vines grow on two steep, rock-covered,... Read More
Saumur-Champigny's vineyards lie on a low plateau of tuffeau - the yellowish, sandy, rock common in the middle Loire that Cabernet Franc loves so much. Here it's picked ripe, made with native yeasts in concrete, and given... Read More
A big, rich, well-oaked, Tempranillo that’s ready to drink with all kinds of savory food off the grill. The wine is from Zamora, near the Portuguese border, and it shows off plenty of Tempranillo color and richness with... Read More
Ice wine is a luxurious rarity, traditionally (as here) made only with super-ripe grapes are left to hang into winter and then picked when frozen. On pressing, the ice (water) stays in the press, giving super-sweet juice that... Read More
About 35 years ago, Etienne (“Henri”) Bourgeois became the first Sancerre winemaker in recorded history to make and bottle a Sancerre raised entirely in new French oak. Today, the family has tweaked the formula, using... Read More
From Napa’s famed Inglenook vineyards in Rutherford and a truly great Napa Cabernet vintage, this is drinking beautifully now and still has plenty of potential to develop in cellar. It's 95% Cabernet Sauvignon plus Cabernet... Read More
A terrific, old-school, Ribera del Duero Tempranillo with loads of black fruit ripeness and sweet oak spice, smoke and vanilla balanced by remarkable freshness and even a touch of minerality. The oak folds into the ripe fruit... Read More
As Vinous says in their 92 point review, Jonata's entry-level Todos remains the hidden jewel in this range, as it offers tons of character at a very accessible price. Blending 45% Syrah, 21% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petit Verdot,... Read More
If “from South Africa” is a green light for you, go for it. If it’s a yellow caution flag – pyrazines ahead! - go ahead and step on the gas and take this home to the winner’s circle for your next... Read More
