Vintage	Producer	Product Name	Notes	Source	Score	Sell Sheet	Updated
2015	Tulocay	Pinot Noir Napa Valley Haynes Vineyard	Exotic and delicate on the nose, exuberant in rose petal and lavender, this wine is earthy and stemmy, with a weight on the palate that belies its underlying elegance and persistent acidity.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2018-09-26
2016	Tibaldi	Nebbiolo D'Alba DOC	Strawberry essence, caramelized orange peel and roasted herbs. Medium- to full-bodied, juicy and round on the succulent finish. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2018-09-26
2016	Tibaldi	Barbera D'Alba DOC	Aromas of orange peel, plums and stones follow through to a medium body with firm and very fine tannins. A clean finish. Drink now.	James Suckling	91		2018-09-26
2017	Winzerhof Stahl	Scheurebe	A slew of grapefruit, pineapple and herbal aromas makes this succulent, medium-bodied dry white extremely appealing. A touch of smoked bacon at the crisp finish. What a wine for spicy prawns! Drink now. Screw cap.	James Suckling	91		2018-09-24
2017	Winzerhof Stahl	Silvaner	With its green-pepper, green-apple and spring-meadow aromas, this could easily be mistaken for a lighter and crisper version of Austrian grüner veltliner with great herbal freshness at the very clean finish. Screw cap.	James Suckling	91		2018-09-24
2017	Winzerhof Stahl	Muller Thurgau Hasennest	A mind-blowing wine for the humble müller-thurgau grape, this is brimming with yellow grapefruit, sliced pears, passion fruit and just a whisker of funk. Serious concentration, but without opulence (it weighs in at 13 per cent alcohol), then enormous, chalky minerals at the very long finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.	James Suckling	93		2018-09-24
2017	Winzerhof Stahl	Silvaner Edelstahl Best of	A very enticing silvaner with an explosion of citrus and mirabelle on the nose, but only a hint of the mango that comes with overripeness. Considerable concentration and depth, but none of the fat that plagues high-end wines from this grape. The long finish is at once rich and lively. A great food wine, also for rich, spicy dishes. Drink or hold. Screw cap.	James Suckling	93		2018-09-24
2017	Quinta de Curvos	Vinho Verde Loureiro	From one of the top two varieties grown in Vinho Verde (the other is Alvarinho), this wine is fruity, packed with citrus, and with a zesty tight texture. The fruit is ripe while remaining cool and crisp. Drink this wine from late 2018.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2018-09-18
2016	Dominio de Eguren	Codice	Brambly, rich summer-berry and chocolate aromas with an earthy and tarry nose. The palate has a smooth feel with dark and dense, fleshy fruit. Rich and even. Drink now.	James Suckling	91		2018-09-18
2014	Dominio de Eguren	Codice	(fermented and aged for six months in stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in French and American oak barrels for another six months) Lurid ruby. Heady cherry, black raspberry, licorice and floral pastille qualities on the spice-accented nose. Seamless and nicely focused; a firm spine of juicy acidity provides lift and structure to ripe dark berry and spicecake flavors. Finishes with gentle tannic grip and very good length, the berry note lingering nicely. There's outstanding value here.	Vinous	90		2018-09-18
