Vintage	Producer	Product Name	Notes	Source	Score	Sell Sheet	Updated
2022	Morgan	Chardonnay 'Highland' Santa Lucia Highlands	Mouthwatering pear, apple, lemon zest and lime sherbet notes are vibrant and energetic in this white, offering an appealing note of salted butterscotch on a sleek body. Drink now. 4,535 cases made. From California.	Wine Spectator	90		2024-03-25
2022	Fairvalley	Pinotage	Fairvalley was founded by a workers’ association in 1997. Now numbering 42 members, it invests all profits into community housing. Their 2022 Pinotage dives from smoky, earthy aromas into a well of aromatic, expressive red fruits. It’s a textbook new-school pinotage, bringing grippy, chewy tannins to the translucent–red fruit party, ready for a thick pub-style burger. Best Buy. Best for $15 or Less.

2022	Domaine des Rocailles	Apremont Jacquere	The light fragrance of yellow apple meets a salty, meaty note in this wine—it smells like schmalz, tastes like wild white berries, lingering on that malic yellow-apple acidity and apple-skin tannins. This will stand up to and cut through the creamy richness of traditional Savoyard foods, like tartiflette. Best Buy.	Wine & Spirits	91		2024-03-25
2018	Bhilar	Struggling Vines Carrakripan Rioja Blend	Lots of creativity and innovation have gone into this wine (90% Viura, 6% Malvasia, 4% Garnacha), with amazing results. Part orange wine, part 19th-century winemaking, in large foudres, with careful barrel ageing. Development is already great, but it requires bottle ageing. Starts powerfully, becoming stylish and understated with enticing aromatics on the finish. One to follow, absolutely.	Decanter	93		2024-03-12
2023	Cuarto Dominio	Malbec 'BlanCat Estate Parcel Selection'	Deep and concentrated nose and palate full of blackberries and dark cherries. Fleshy, flavorful and full-bodied on the palate with lots of fruit. Firm tannins but nothing chewy here. Sleek and voluminous. A co-fermentation of malbec, cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon. Drink from 2025.	James Suckling	93		2024-02-29
2021	Dunham	Red Blend 'Trutina' Columbia Valley	An aroma of roasted plums leads to a great combo of savory, smoky flavors over ripe, almost jammy blueberries and blackberries. It’s powerful but polished. 64% merlot, 29% cabernet sauvignon, 4% malbec, 2% petit verdot and 1% cabernet franc.	James Suckling	93		2024-02-28
2022	Dunham	Three Legged Red	A rich, dense and deep red blend. Dark chocolate, baked plums, cocoa and blackberries are layered in velvety, soothing tannins. Drink now. Screw cap.	James Suckling	91		2024-02-28
2023	Ilurce	Garnacha Rose 'Rio Madre'	This sangrado Garnacha Tinta is a celebrated bargain among rosado drinkers in Rioja. Made in a forward, vibrant, gloriously perfumed style by two generations of the Escudero family, it's a rich, intense mouthful of raspberry, pomegranate and blackcurrant leaf, with a touch of boiled sweets and a tangy finish. 2024-26	Tim Atkin	91		2024-02-23
2020	Ramírez de la Piscina	Crianza	There aren't many better Crianzas on the market at this price than the Ramírez de la Piscina family's Tempranillo from vineyards in Ábalos and San Vicente de la Sonsierra. Matured in mixed French and American oak barrels, it has effortless concentration, liquorice and blackberry flavours, subtle wood spices and vivid acidity. 2024-29	Tim Atkin	92		2024-02-23
2021	La Fleur de Boüard	Chardonnay Vin de Pays de l’Atlantique	Grilled pineapple, lemon curd and buttered toast on the nose. Ripe yet bright and tangy with a medium body and vibrant yellow fruit. Lemony finish. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2024-02-21
