Vintage	Producer	Product Name	Notes	Source	Score	Sell Sheet	Updated
2020	Ramírez de la Piscina	Reserva 'Selección'	A dense and full-bodied Rioja with mocha, sweet tobacco, roasted plums, nutmeg and paprika on the nose. Chewy and firm, with wood-soaked tannins, yet it doesn’t overpower the rich dark berry and plum fruit. Try in 2024.	James Suckling	90		2023-09-27
2021	Valderiz	Crianza 'Valdehermoso'	A juicy and bright Ribera del Duero with a hint of sweet spice to the black cherries, red berries and potpourri. Nicely tannic and chewy on the palate, but polished. Grippy at the end but fluid in the mid-palate. From organically grown grapes. A bit tight now. Try in 2025.	James Suckling	91		2023-09-27
2021	Dominio de Eguren	Protocolo Tinto	Earth, dark berries, dried herbs and forest floor on the nose. Medium-bodied with firm tannins. It has an earthy edge in the mouth with a dusty, flavorful finish. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	90		2023-09-27
2020	Donati	Merlot Paso Robles	The 2020 Merlot opens with a perfumed blend of stone dust, lavender and wild blueberries. This has a lovely inner sweetness balanced by tart wild berry fruits and a gentle mineral undercurrent that adds a salt sensation. It finishes gently tannic and fresh, only medium in length yet impactful.	Vinous	90		2023-09-27
2021	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 'Le Murate'	Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, plum, violets and a hint of chocolate. Medium-bodied, this is straightforward and easy drinking; there is impressive harmony and freshness. Enjoy over the next 3-5 years. A fine value for less than $20.	Forbes	90		2023-09-22
2019	Azabache	Tempranillo Blanco	Very aromatic with peach and raspberry on the nose. Sweet orange and strawberry on the finish.	Decanter	92		2023-09-22
2021	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 'Le Murate'	Blackberries, fresh blueberries, lemons and mint on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with sleek tannins, crisp acidity and fresh, youthful fruit. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.	James Suckling	91		2023-09-22
2020	Lornano	Chianti Classico		Luca Maroni	98		2023-09-15
2020	Lornano	Chianti Classico	Deep, ripe blue fruit, red currants and cherries, with the oak adroitly blended in, then revealing touches of nuts, thyme and Earl Grey tea.	Decanter	91		2023-09-15
2020	Cape Mentelle	Sauvignon Blanc Semillon	This smells like Margaret River, with grassy and herbal aromas slotted through bright lime and lemony citrus and tropical notes. The palate has very fresh and upbeat fruit that follows the same thread as the aromas. Plenty of juicy flavor here.	James Suckling	91		2023-09-14
