2015 Romain Jambon Brouilly les Eronnes "The 2015 Brouilly les Eronnes was 70% destemmed with the remainder going through a 15-day carbonic maceration. It has a very perfumed and floral bouquet that is pure and utterly charming. The palate is sweet and candied on the entry with a luscious, blueberry and macerated red cherry finish laced with orange essence. Lovely!  Drink Date 2017 – 2025"    Wine Advocate 91 2017-11-15
2015 Romain Jambon Brouilly Les Vieux Cep "The 2015 Brouilly Les Vieux Ceps is 100% destemmed and sees 12 months in barrel. It has a charming and fragrant bouquet, the oak neatly integrated with the vivacious black plum and red cherry fruit laced with vanilla pod. The palate is well balanced with juicy ripe blueberry and loganberry on the entry. This has a sensual velvety texture and a classy, caressing finish that is nigh irresistible. Superb.  Drink Date 2017 – 2027" Wine Advocate 92 2017-11-15
NV Ca' Furlan Cuvee Beatrice Prosecco DOC Showing white peach and pear aromas, this fruity sparkler offers rich, fresh fruit flavors on an off-dry palate. It’s nicely balanced and clean, finishing with a light yeast note. Pleasant drinking and a fabulous value. International Wine Review 90 2017-11-14
2016 Col Vetoraz Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze Platinum straw. An uplifting perfume of apple blossoms and white stone fruit provides a graceful introduction to a refined palate showing beautifully delineated fruit and a silky creamy texture. With 26 g/L RS, it’s off-dry (although labeled “dry” in Prosecco) but so well balanced that it seems much drier. Would be a perfect pairing with lightly spicy Asian food. Aged 16 months in French barriques. International Wine Review 90 2017-11-14
2016 Foris Vineyards Pinot Gris Bright and packed with succulent apple and pear fruit, this retains ample juicy acidity for a perfectly balanced, fresh style. With its underlying wet stone minerality, it offers exceptional value. BEST BUY Wine Enthusiast 90 2017-11-14
2016 Jean Marc Burgaud Morgon Les Charmes Smells riper than the Beaujolais-Villages, darker and slightly spicier. Damson sweetness balanced by rocky Morgon graphite character and freshness of the vintage. Mouth-watering and persistent. 2020-2030 Jancis Robinson 17 2017-11-14
2016 Jean Marc Burgaud Beaujolais Villages 'Château de Thulon' Light cherry red. A light herbal stemmy note. Tight, stemmy and fresh, mouth-watering and bone dry. Almost austere but just on the refreshing end of the spectrum, pure and rocky. 2018-2022

2014 White Rock Vineyards Chardonnay The 2014 Chardonnay from White Rock Vineyards offers attractive minerality, hints of pineapple and orange rind, medium body, a discreet use of oak, and excellent fruit and purity. It could easily pass for a premier cru Chablis in a blind tasting. Drink it over the next 5-6 years. Wine Advocate 89+ 2017-11-07
2014 White Rock Vineyards Claret The 2014 Claret Proprietary Red Wine, 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot has nice red and blackcurrant fruit, licorice and spice box in an elegant Bordeaux-like style. This is medium-bodied wine, can be drunk now or cellared for 10-12 years. It is also a very good value. Wine Advocate 92 2017-11-07
2013 Andrea Oberto Barolo Albarella The 2013 Barolo Albarella is striking. Freshly cut flowers, rose petals, violets, mint and hard candy give the 2013 its chiseled, vibrant personality. Tasted from cask prior to bottling, the 2013 is shaping up to be a jewel of a wine. I am especially struck by the wine's pure energy. The Albarella displays a slightly darker fruit profile and more nervous tannins than the Rocche. Both are shaping up to be jewels. -- Antonio Galloni Vinous 91-94 2017-11-02
