2022	Frey	Biodynamic 'Field Blend Red' Mendocino	A solid-quality red blend that’s robust, darkly fruity and full-bodied, with moderate tannins adding some grip to the texture.

2021	Elia Palazzesi	Brunello di Montalcino	Oxidative style with prunes, crushed flowers, and chocolatey depth. Medium-bodied, it shows moderate to refreshing acidity and ripe, chalky tannins. Lacks a bit of tension, otherwise good. Try from 2027.	James Suckling	92		2026-01-14
2020	Chateau de Mercues	6666	Perfumed nose, kind of floral, with inviting dark fruit aromas and hints of chocolate. Elegant on the palate, bright tannins.	Decanter	91		2026-01-13
2020	Chateau de Mercues	6666	Parcels planted with a high density of 6,666 vines per hectare (2,698 per acre) means this is a very concentrated wine. Produced only in top years, this wine's density and powerful black fruits are impressive. It is rich, still structured, likely to be ready from 2026.	Wine Enthusiast	94		2026-01-13
2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines	A powerful, firmly structured Cornas, with beautiful freshness to its plum and anise notes as they take on a strong, savory dimension, layered with woodsy forest floor, bay leaf and oregano. Tangy, racy acidity pumps through, and smoky, bitter iron carries on the finish, with firm tannins giving this an austere feel now. This needs cellar time to reveal its full potential. Best from 2027 through 2040.—K.B.	Wine Spectator	94		2026-01-13
2023	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Chapelle Saint-Pierre	Concentrated and taut, featuring stylish notes of smoked plum, olive paste, lavender, oregano and smoldering incense, plus a fresh jolt of green herbs. Singed wood spice, clove and nutmeg add warmth, while formidable tannins dominate the full yet racy finish, which is bolted down with iron. Best from 2027 through 2037.—K.B.	Wine Spectator	94		2026-01-13
2023	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Chailles	Shows real elegance, with a restrained core of black currant and violet pulsing with tangy acidity and dusted in black pepper. Brown bread and tobacco merge in with a spicy, herbal thread, making for a fresh, savory finish. Offers subtle, pleasing chewiness and crushed graphite throughout. Best from 2027 through 2037.—K.B.

2020	La Ciarliana	Vino Nobile di Montepulciano	The 2020 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano opens in the glass with a dusty bouquet blending dried flower notes with hints of cedar and allspice. It's soothingly round, with a wave of tart wild berry fruits and a cascade of inner violet florals, all guided by brisk acidity. Sweet tannins define the finish, with nuances of cocoa and tart blackberry resonating over a layer of fine tannins.	Vinous	92		2026-01-05
2020	Chateau Bouscasse	Madiran 'Vieilles Vignes'	A layered, focused and well-composed tannat with dark berries, roasted meat, dried herbs and warm spices on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Succulent core of berries with spices and a solid frame shaping the flavorful and persistent finish. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	93		2026-01-05
