2018	See Saw	Shiraz	From the high-elevation region of Orange in New South Wales, this organic Shiraz shows the coolness of the climate and the power of the variety. It opens with a nose of plump, brambly berry notes, cracked black pepper, earthy, savory spices and a slight meaty note. The palate is more austere, thanks to dusty tannins that firmly grip the juicy fruit, but it’s also fresh and balanced. Drink now with protein at hand or cellar through 2027.

2019	Barra	Pinot Noir Mendocino	This smooth and well-balanced wine offers delicious black-cherry and blackberry flavors, mild tannins and a good dash of fruit acidity for a refreshing texture. It’s a great value, and will be a crowd pleaser, versatile for multiple occasions. Made with certified organic grapes. Editors’ Choice.	Wine Enthusiast	92		2021-10-12
2020	Simple Life	Rose	Steely, mineral elements in the nose and on the palate give an extra lively and complex slant to this light-bodied, fragrant and well-balanced wine. It was made from an unusual blend of almost half Tempranillo, plus Barbera and three other varieties. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2021-10-12
2019	Foris	Riesling Rogue Valley	Not quite fully dry, this skirts the border of off-dry with a touch of residual sugar, just enough to round out the tart grapefruit flavors that hold down the center palate. It opens further with more citrus and green apple fruit, underscored with refreshing minerality.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2021-10-08
2018	Killibinbin	Shiraz 'Sneaky' Langhorne Creek	Pronounced aromas of brambled fruit like boysenberries and figs with nuances of black pepper and violet. The palate is robust with ripe red fruit notes and followed by savory flavors of smoked meat and chocolate. Gold Medal.	London Wine Competition	92		2021-10-07
2019	Mannucci Droandi	Chianti Colli Aretini	A lovely nose of ripe red fruit and flowers with notes of sweet herbs. Fresh and bright with solid mineral character throughout. Charming and well balanced with steady intensity. Spicy at the finish. Delightful. Showcases this lesser-known appellation well. From organically grown grapes.	James Suckling	92		2021-10-06
2013	Jacquart	Brut Blanc de Blanc	This has pared back aromas of lemon citrus with hints of grilled peaches and a fresh mineral edge. The palate has impressive depth and fruit flesh. Five years on lees has rounded the palate out nicely as it now delivers smooth lemon-curd flavors. A fresh, crisp and mouthwatering finish.	James Suckling	93		2021-10-06
NV	Jean Laurent	Brut Rose	This rosé Champagne is light garnet in hue, with a lively bead and expressive flavors of steeped strawberry, mandarin orange peel, dried thyme and a hint of sweet smoke. Chalky on the finish, this would pair well with food; try it with salumi and cheese or even richer game or grilled meat. Disgorged January 2020. Drink now through 2024.	Wine Spectator	90		2021-10-06
NV	Jean Laurent	Brut Blanc de Noirs	A mouthwatering Champagne. Offers hints of fennel seed and mandarin orange peel accenting cherry and raspberry fruit flavors, carrying through to the smoke-laced finish on the lively bead. Disgorged January 2020.	Wine Spectator	90		2021-10-06
NV	Jean Laurent	Brut Blanc de Blancs	Crisp acidity frames a ripe profile of dried apricot and candied pink grapefruit peel flavors in this balanced blanc de blancs. Offers fine, satin-like texture, and a subtle streak of salinity that chimes in on the mouthwatering finish.	Wine Spectator	90		2021-10-06
