2023	Domaine de Fondrèche	Blanc AOP Ventoux	Vibrant and very herbaceous, with oily green threads of fresh-cut grass and oregano infusing the plump core of yellow apple and nectarine. Ripe and round on the palate, with the creamy texture firmed up by a wall of smoky mineral and lemon zest. Shows good concentration and great freshness on the clean finish.

2020	Elia Palazzesi	Brunello di Montalcino	Bright licorice on the nose with red cherries and cherrystones, wild herbs and overall complexity.

2020	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane Riserva 'Neromoro'	A fruity and mellow red with dark berries and mild spices on the nose, as well as hints of blood orange and moist earth.

2022	Nicodemi	Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Colline Teramane 'Notari'	A youthful, focused red that has notes of black plum, nutmeg, bay leaf and cocoa.

2020	La Fiorita	Brunello di Montalcino	Orange peel and berry aromas with some cedar follow through to a medium body with fine tannins and a tangy finish. A little hard at the end now, but will soften nicely in a year or two.	James Suckling	92		2024-10-18
2021	Ryan Patrick	Rock Island Red' Columbia Valley	A ripe and tasty red that has aromas and flavors of grilled plums, chocolate, cherries and cinnamon. Full-bodied on the palate, with ripe tannins. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2024-10-18

2023	Domaine du Pegau	Cotes du Rhone Blanc 'Cuvee Lone'	A creamy gush of peach and melon flavors show real concentration and oomph on the palate of this distinctive white, set against bitter chalky mineral notes, plus green herbs and smoke, with a beam of bitter lemon peel and steely acidity. This has a lot of life and tension, in addition to the opulent core. Clairette, Bourboulenc, Grenache Blanc and Ugni Blanc. Drink now. 1,250 cases made, 400 cases imported.
