NV	Jacquart	Brut 'Mosaique'	Aromas of flowers, quince, strawberries and candied pears follow through to a medium body with creamy texture and a delicious aftertaste. A little sweeter than some. Bitter peaches at the end. Drink now.	James Suckling	91		2025-09-04
2012	Jacquart	Cuvée Alpha	Very nutty, with aromas of peanut butter, smoky woodland and tarte tatin. Seems to be frothy at the first sip, then the bubbles show their roundness and amazing length, with long, refreshing acidity. Lemony, too. Full body and a persistent finish. Pinot noir and chardonnay. Tasted from magnum. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	94		2025-09-04
2014	Jacquart	Cuvée Alpha	Dense and structured with aromas of dried fruit and fresh Camembert as well as bread dough. Full-bodied and layered with plenty of fruit and spices and a long, tangy finish. Complex and rather decadent at the end. Drink now.	James Suckling	94		2025-09-04
2016	Jacquart	Brut Blanc de Blancs	Roasted almonds, rice crackers, dried orange rind and honeycomb on the nose, followed by a flavorful, ripe and spicy palate. Soft, silky bubbles. Long, too. 100% chardonnay. Dosage 7g/L. Drink now or hold.	James Suckling	93		2025-09-04
2024	Morgan	Albarino	Aged briefly in French oak, this wine screams for seafood. Delicate and fresh flavors of basil and thyme layer atop a bed of stone fruit and saline, where they're balanced by an enduring crispness.The result is a mouthwateringly yummy success.	Tasting Panel	94		2025-09-02
2014	I Custodi	Etna Rosso Riserva 'Saeculare'	A whiff of Christmas spice gives way to wild blueberries and dusty dried flowers as the 2014 Etna Rosso Riserva Saeculare tempts the imagination. It is beautifully resolved with a silken gracefulness brought about through maturity. Cooling acidity guides ripe red berry fruits across the palate. A gentle tug of fine tannins remains as sour citrus, minerals and spice come together on the hauntingly dark and nicely balanced finale. This late release is a beautiful interpretation from one of Etna's landmark vintages.	Vinous	94		2025-08-27
2024	Pursued by Bear	Rose 'Blushing Bear' Columbia Valley	A blend of 77% Grenache and 23% Mourvèdre, the grapes for the 2024 Rose Blushing Bear are picked early and whole-cluster pressed to maintain freshness and offer delicious complexity. This is an outstanding, textured, complex, and vibrant wine, richly layered in red and black berry, mouth-quenching citrus, and wisps of white pepper. Drink now.	Jeb Dunnuck	95		2025-08-27
2020	I Custodi	Etna Rosso 'Aetneus'	The 2020 Etna Rosso Aetneus smolders up with a darkly floral mix of mentholated black cherries, dried violets and ashen stones. Silken textures, cooling acidity and ripe wild berry fruits wash across the palate. A saturation of minerals and fine tannins amass toward the close. Built for the cellar, this finishes long and structured with a resonance of sour citrus and lavender pastille. The 2020 is a gorgeous rendition of I Custodi's Aetneus.	Vinous	95		2025-08-27
2021	Pursued by Bear	Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley	High-toned and textured like its cousin Twin Bear, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is softer in tannins, but equally worth attention. Textured, complex, and savory, it has dark, deep layers of full-bodied black fruit at its core and a lasting note of iron and oak. Age 10-15 years.	Jeb Dunnuck	96		2025-08-26
2022	Jolete	Pinot Noir 'Le Verre Cuvee' Willamette Valley	Aromas of cherries, strawberries, dried leaves and subtle spices. The palate is light and fresh, with soft tannins and a simple, fruit-driven finish. Easy and approachable. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2025-08-26
