2019	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Beaujolais Villages Blanc	A very complex chardonnay for Beaujolais, the fresh herbal notes beautifully integrated with yeasty notes and flinty character. Then, on the palate a wonderful balance of creaminess and lemony crispness, but all this doesn’t prepare you for the brilliant minerality at the extremely refreshing finish. Drink or hold.

2019	Domaine Vauroux	Chablis 1er Cru Montmains	Aromas of apricot stone, green pear, blanched almond and slate. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity and concentrated, fleshy layers of stone and citrus fruit. Creamy and smooth finish. Very typical and well done. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	93		2021-04-06
2019	Domaine Vauroux	Chablis 'Vieilles Vignes'	Aromas of dried apple, apricot, stone, lemon zest and curd. It’s medium-bodied with tangy acidity and a bright, flavorful finish. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	92		2021-04-06
2019	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon Cote du Py 'Javernieres'	Slightly funky and very earthy, this is quite a radical and austere expression of Beaujolais. Tightly wound and pretty tannic, it needs some time for the violet and sour-cherry character to open up. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	92		2021-04-06
2019	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Beaujolais 'Les Vignes de Lantignie'	Lovely forest-berry and black-cherry aromas gently introduce you to this medium-bodied beauty that has just enough tannin to be gently warming and properly dry. Very good minerality, spice and length. A good argument for giving Lantignié Beaujolais Cru status. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	91		2021-04-06
2019	Domaine Vigneau-Chevreau	Vouvray Sec 'Cuvée Silex'	A taut, focused dry style that's organically grown and hand-harvested. Hailing from silex soil, as the cuvée name makes clear, the 2019 Cuvée Silex is a compact and precise offering with laser-like, citrus-driven acidity. There's crisp apple fruit and white flowers on the nose, but this wine is all about the terroir-driven structure. It is uncompromising and sure of itself.	Vinous	92		2021-03-31
2016	La Fiorita	Brunello di Montalcino	Lustrous ruby. Deep marasca cherry and cherry-liqueur nose with touches of sweet spice. Intense and concentrated sweet-sour cherry fruit with supple acidity. Quite rich and sweet yet balanced, if a tiny bit hot on the finish.	Jancis Robinson	16		2021-03-31
2016	La Fiorita	Brunello di Montalcino 'Fiore di NO'	Lustrous ruby. Sweetly concentrated nose with notes of cherry liqueur and a hint of oak. Intense and very sweet and youthful with enormous fruit power and firm tannins. Rich and boisterous and not to be approached for quite some time.	Jancis Robinson	16		2021-03-31
2019	Barra	Chardonnay Mendocino	Very smooth and mouthfilling, this lushly textured wine made from organic grapes is packed with buttered popcorn and baking-spice aromas and piles of poached pears on baked apple flavors. For all that richness it doesn't overdo the oak aspects, and comes out nicely balanced on the finish.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2021-03-31
2008	Mas d'En Gil	Coma Vella'	(60% garnacha, 25% carinena and 15% syrah): Vivid ruby. Redcurrant and cherry on the fragrant mineral- and herb-accented nose. Taut and focused, offering mineral-tinged red fruit flavors and a hint of licorice. Closes with firm cut and very good tangy persistence. No excess fat here but no shortage of flavor intensity either.	Vinous	91		2021-03-30
