2019 Tezza Valpolicella Ripasso Valpantena Superiore Luca Maroni 93 2024-01-16
2020 Pursued by Bear Red Blend 'Bear Cub' Columbia Valley A rich blackberry and boysenberry aromatic combination is complemented by a wisp of mocha latte. The wine’s dark chocolate-covered black cherry and vanilla flavors coat the palate in delicious fashion, with modest acidity and velvety tannins providing a plush sipping experience. Try this Cub with a nice bowl of ragù-topped polenta. Wine Enthusiast 92 2024-01-16
2018 Henners Blanc de Blancs Beautiful, oh-so-English aromas of raw honey, pear, lemon rind, ground ginger, nougat and fresh cream form the nose of this stellar sparkling from a coastal vineyard in East Sussex. Mouthwatering citrusy acidity first hits the tongue, followed by a chalky texture, a tickle of toast and a long lemony finish amid a fine bead of bubbles. Wine Enthusiast 95 2024-01-15
NV Henners Brut From the East Sussex coast, this opulent sparkler is a blend of all three Champagne varieties. Cashews roasted in butter lead on the nose, along with orange blossom, greengage plum, lemon verbena and a distinctive smoky note to the yeasty toast. There's richness in the mouth as well. No nuttiness here, and the bubbles fizzle out fairly quickly, but citrus, stone fruit and cream are buoyed by a lovely crisp, maritime acidity. Wine Enthusiast 90 2024-01-15
2019 Corte Majoli Amarone della Valpolicella Luca Maroni 94 2024-01-09
2019 La Fiorita Brunello di Montalcino Lustrous ruby with bricky rim. Dramatic, deep, concentrated nose with an exotic spice note from oak, but perfectly integrated. Succulent, deep, polished marasca cherry on the palate with deep, chalky tannins. Immense length and concentration, but balanced at the same time. Still needs to lose it intense fruit sweetness, but I can imagine some would tuck in right now and enjoy its voluptuousness. Jancis Robinson 17+ 2023-12-27
2019 La Fiorita Brunello di Montalcino 'Fiore di NO' Maturing mid ruby with orange tinges. Lively, concentrated raspberry and amarena-cherry nose. Elegant raspberry and cherry palate that seems much lighter than its stated 15%. Supple and suave with lots of underlying grainy tannins. Can be approached, but with a couple of years in bottle should reveal more. Jancis Robinson 17 2023-12-27
2019 Glaetzer Shiraz 'Amon Ra' The 2019 Amon Ra Shiraz is 100% Shiraz and 100% from the 2019 vintage, as Ben Glaetzer felt it—unlike many previous vintages—didn't need to be freshened with a small proportion of younger wine. From old vines in the Ebenezer district of the northern Barossa Valley, it offers classic notes of blackberries and spice, framed by hints of cedar and vanilla (it's aged in 100% new oak hogsheads, mostly French). It's full-bodied yet crisp, supple but tight and really long. Offering lovely dark fruit, hints of espresso and black olive, it finishes mouthwatering and firm. Give it some time in the cellar and drink it from 2025 – 2040. Wine Advocate 96+ 2023-12-26
