2017	Decibel Wines	Crownthorpe Sauvignon Blanc	Rich and intense passionfruit with hints of elderflower and gooseberry, citrus and honeysuckle. Some autolysis characteristics remain with richness on the back-nose giving more headier notes. The front palate is lively with crisp peach notes, a soft mid-palate of honey dew and fresh stone fruit racing towards the finish with a lingering, chalky textural note on the cheeks giving a zesty finish.

2016	Domaine Yves Cheron	Cuvee Jurassique Gigondas	Rich blueberry and cherry notes mark the nose of the 2016 Gigondas Jurassique. A blend of 75% Grenache and 25% Syrah, it's full-bodied, ripe and velvety in texture, ending on hints of crushed stone that give it a welcome dry, savory edge.	Wine Advocate	92		2019-10-14
2015	La Fiorita	Brunello di Montalcino	A rich Brunello with plenty of ripe-fruit, spice, porcini-mushroom and nutmeg character. Full body. Dense and flavorful. Ripe and polished tannins. Excellent structure and focus. Give this time to come together. Try after 2021.	James Suckling	95		2019-10-04
2017	Lumos Wine Co	Rudolfo Pinot Gris Willamette Valley	Lumos’s pinot gris is named for the Rudolph family, which owns Logsdon Ridge, ten acres of pinot gris that Dai Crisp has managed since 2000. The wine is so lean and minerally that it might be hard to notice all of the complexity rumbling beneath the surface: the bruised-apple and spiced-pineapple headiness, the grippy phenolics rushed along by nervous, jittery acidity. Give it six months in the cellar before pouring with arctic char.	Wine & Spirits	90		2019-10-04
2016	Lafond Winery	Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills	Intriguing aromas of red cherry, mulberry, turned earth and rainy gravel show on the nose of this bottling by one of the region's earliest producers. The palate is dark and earthy with flavors of boysenberry, star anise, rhubarb and cardamom pods, all wrapped in fresh acidity.	Wine Enthusiast	93		2019-10-04
2016	Lafond Winery	Pinot Noir Santa Rita Hills	The 2016 Pinot Noir Sta. Rita Hills is medium ruby-purple with appealing, layered aromas of red licorice, crushed red cherries and cranberries, raspberry preserves, fragrant earth, dried violets and Earl Grey tea leaves. Medium-bodied, it offers great flavor intensity with a grainy frame and very juicy freshness, finishing long with sweet red fruits.	Wine Advocate	91		2019-10-04
2015	Mas d'En Gil	Bellmunt	Dense but not heavy, with easygoing aromas and flavors of flowers, red fruits and stones.	New York Times	3 Stars		2019-10-04
