2023	Dancing Crow Vineyards	Chardonnay Lake County	Apricots, hazelnuts and lemon curd on the nose, followed by a creamy, medium- to full-bodied palate. Soft, ripe and clean. Drink now. Screw cap.	James Suckling	90		2024-12-11
2023	Clouston & Co.	Sauvignon Blanc	The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is vibrant, fresh, vital, thiol dense and layered with passionfruit, coriander, crunchy green apple and kiwi fruit. There's a lot to be said for drinking these wines immediately; that green crunchiness inherent in Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is pretty sensational when captured like this, most especially on a hot day. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

2023	Dancing Crow Vineyards	Farmers Cuvee Reserve Sauvignon Blanc Lake County	This fruity white has notes of sliced apples, peaches and lemons on the nose. It’s medium-bodied, creamy and lemony. Drink now. Screw cap.	James Suckling	90		2024-12-11
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Chapelle Saint-Pierre	Smoked bacon fat and black pepper permeate a base of supple plum and baked black cherry flavors in this smoky red, which shows good freshness. Full but not massive, this is round and smooth, with a subtle chewiness that adds textural complexity. Drinking beautifully now, but with a long life ahead in the cellar. Drink now through 2035. 200 cases made, 10 cases imported.	Wine Spectator	95		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	Saint Joseph Les Cotes	A distinctive red, with a pretty core of cherry and violet underneath an earthy, meaty layer of smoked bacon fat. Savory, offering charred mesquite, tapenade and salty minerality. Drink now through 2027. 300 cases made, 30 cases imported.	Wine Spectator	91		2024-12-05
2021	Domaine Alain Voge	St. Peray Harmonie	Also all Marsanne, the 2021 Saint-Péray Harmonie is a fresher, vibrant effort offering pretty citrus and orange pith-like aromatics, medium-bodied richness, nicely integrated acidity, and a clean, classy style that's going to shine on the dinner table over the coming 2-4 years.

2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines	The tiny production 2022 Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines comes from the site of the estate’s oldest Syrah vines, an 80-year-old vineyard planted in granite soil. It's a sensational looking barrel sample that's going to rank with the top handful of wines in the appellation. Cassis, blueberries, spring flowers, game, and liquid violet notes are just some of its nuances, and it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, broad mouthfeel, and ripe yet certainly present tannins. It's going to need 3-5 years of cellaring but will evolve for two decades.	Jeb Dunnuck	95-97		2024-12-05
NV	Domaine Alain Voge	Saint-Peray Les Bulles d’Alain	An alluring, tasty sparkler, with bitter minerality supporting a gush of warm apple, spice and salted brioche flavors. Offers nice richness, with ripe fruit and a full body, all kept fresh and in check by ample quinine and wet stone elements. Drink now. 260 cases made, 25 cases imported.	Wine Spectator	90		2024-12-05
2022	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes	Darker currants, cassis, sappy flowers, violets, and peppery bouquet garni notes emerge from the 2022 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes, another powerful, full-bodied Cornas with a great mid-palate, ripe, building tannins, and a great finish. At this point, it’s more similar than not to the Vieilles Fontaines, if not a touch richer.	Jeb Dunnuck	95-97		2024-12-05
2020	Domaine Alain Voge	Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines	A burly, powerful red, with pleasing chewiness and savory intensity. Offers a beam of mulled currant, fig and black licorice built around a smoldering iron note. Shows impressive structure and finesse, with a tug of tar and savory density on the salty finish, which is marked by hints of grilled herbs, juniper and aniseed. Drink now through 2030. 225 cases made, 17 cases imported.	Wine Spectator	94		2024-12-05
