2024	Isabel Estate	Sauvignon Blanc	The 2024 Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc leads with juniper and cassis, green apples and lemon zest. In the mouth, the wine has a quinine-like freshness and intensity, shaped by pliable phenolics through the middle palate and finish. This is a really classy wine here. It's sophisticated. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.	Wine Advocate	94		2025-04-10
2023	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon Cote du Py	The haunting bouquet of violets, forest floor, red beets and berries holds you in its gentle grip so that you have to force yourself to take a sip. But when you do, the combination of great concentration and finesse is truly breathtaking. Dazzling mineral freshness in the almost endless finish. Fermented and matured in concrete tanks. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	99		2025-04-10
2022	Isabel Estate	Pinot Noir	The 2022 Pinot Noir hails from the Wairau Valley and leads with a super pretty nose of crushed shells, cherry, shaved fennel, damp limestone and a hint of freshly grated nutmeg. In the mouth, the wine is elegant and focused, with brilliant mineral detail and fine, open-weave structure. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.	Wine Advocate	90		2025-04-10
2023	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Beaujolais 'Lantignie'	I love the violet aroma of this elegant and juicy, medium-bodied Beaujolais. A delicious wine with a good structure and healthy tannins, without that making it bold or heavy. Long, moderately dry finish. From four hectares of vineyards with 45 to 70-year-old vines. Fermented and matured only in concrete tanks. Bottled late April 2024.	James Suckling	92		2025-04-10
2023	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon 'Grands Cras'	Incredible tension between wild-blackberry and black-cherry fruit with wild-herb freshness and ample fine tannins gives this dark beauty a very deep keel. Bold and impressively structured on the medium- to full-bodied palate, this has breathtaking power in the finish. Fermented and matured only in concrete tanks. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	96		2025-04-10
2023	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon Corcelette	Please let me lie in this bed of violets and velvet and forget the world. In spite of the great concentration on the suave, medium-bodied palate, this is so fresh, delicate and precise. Then comes the sensuous and energetic crescendo of a finish that sweeps you away. From 0.8 hectares of 95-year-old vines. Fermented and matured in concrete tanks. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	98		2025-04-10
2023	Nekeas	Barrel Fermented Chardonnay 'Vega Sindoa'	A creamy chardonnay showing aromas of hazelnuts, white flowers, apricots and a hint of vanilla. It’s full-bodied, round and lightly nutty, balanced by fresh acidity. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2025-04-10
2023	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon Cote du Py 'Javernieres'	This Morgon is compact and concentrated with quite a bit of smoky oak, but somehow it manages to be elegant and animating. I love the way the fruit and smoky-oak tannins interlock, driving the medium-bodied palate forward. The imposing finish is earthy, savory and moderately dry. From the foot of the Cote du Py site. Matured in 10-year-old, 350-liter barrels. Drinkable now but best from 2026.	James Suckling	94		2025-04-10
2023	Two Hands	Shiraz 'Gnarly Dudes' Barossa Valley	There’s a tangy beet-root note amidst concentrated blackberry and plum fruit, sprinkled with black pepper and mint on this oh-so-Aussie Shiraz. The palate shows density and tension, with savory tannins woven through plump dark-berry fruit and a sense of restraint amidst the heft. Drink now, with a steak at hand or over the next decade.

2023	Quinta da Calcada	Vinho Verde Loureiro/Alvarinho	This vibrant wine comes from close to the town of Amarante in southern Vinho Verde. A walnut and spice aroma leads to a floral wine with ripe yellow and citrus fruits topped by a mineral texture. Drink now. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2025-04-07
