2019	Tezza	Valpolicella Superiore 'Brolo delle Giare'	Aromas of rich, glossy red berries, candied plums, dark walnuts and chocolate. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with good intensity of flavors and a firm, medium-long finish. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	91		2024-12-03
2020	Tezza	Valpolicella Superiore 'Brolo delle Giare'	A ripe and juicy expression that’s a little less concentrated than the 2019, but this has traded the jammy fruit for better freshness. A bit more detailed and fluid, with firm, chalky tannins and a lengthy finish. Sustainable. Drinkable now, but can hold.	James Suckling	92		2024-12-03
2023	Marziano Abbona	Dogliani 'Papa Celso'	This is bright and succulent with mellow red and dark fruit character and touches of spices and walnuts. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and mouth-filling, with velvety tannins and an earthy finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.	James Suckling	91		2024-12-02
2022	Marziano Abbona	Barbera d'Alba 'Rinaldi'	This has attractive spices like cardamom and nutmeg to go with dark cherry notes. It’s full-bodied, ripe and velvety, with soft tannins and a warming finish. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2024-12-02
2022	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon Cote du Py	The 2022 Morgon Côte du Py has an absolutely delightful bouquet. Much more charming than the Corcelette, it shows exquisite delineation with perfumed, mineral-laced red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins, very focused with a touch of Indian spice toward the detailed finish. This has a long life ahead. It’s so refined and elegant. #97 on the Vinous Top 100 Wines of 2024	Vinous	94		2024-11-14
2020	Domaine du Pegau	Cuvee Reserve Rouge Chateauneuf-du-Pape	The 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée is one of the strongest vintages for this wine in recent history. It is magnificent, soaring from the glass with pungent aromas of crème de cassis, ripe raspberry and strawberry, cured meat, tobacco, licorice, iodine and garrigue. Full-bodied, vibrant to the core and offering a multidimensional profile, this wine is really, really good. The Féraud family and the entire team deserve a round of applause for this sublime Cuvée Réservée, which will still be kicking ass 20 years from now. #49 on the Vinous Top 100 Wines of 2024	Vinous	96		2024-11-14
2021	La Fiorita	Rosso di Montalcino	The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino is a dark and brooding effort. Black cherries, cloves and hints of tobacco form its bouquet. Juicy and cool-toned in feel, this displays depths of ripe blackberry and sweet spice. It finishes with a spicy tinge and gently grippy tannins that add lovely contours.	Vinous	90		2024-11-11
2022	Beauchene	Chateauneuf-du-Pape 'Vignobles de la Serriere'	Lastly, the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Vignobles De La Serrière checks in as 75% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 5% Mourvèdre. It has a classic, complex nose of ripe red and black fruits, peppery garrigue, and savory, sandalwood-like notes to go with medium-bodied richness and depth on the palate. It's balanced, has ripe tannins, and the perfumed, sunny, complex, and already approachable style of the vintage.]	Jeb Dunnuck	91		2024-11-06
2023	Jean-Marc Burgaud	Morgon Cote du Py	The 2023 Morgon Côte du Py is the blend from six hectares of parcels from various contour lines upon the hill. It has a complex bouquet with mineral-driven red fruit, hints of iodine and pressed violet, wonderfully defined and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with a sapid entry and firm backbone, but this exudes tension and energy. Veins of blood orange run through the composed and persistent finish. Wonderful.	Vinous	92-94		2024-11-06
2019	La Ciarliana	Vino Nobile di Montepulciano	Enticing from the first tilt of the glass, the 2019 Vino Nobile di Montepulciano opens with an air of crushed chalk, giving way to stemmed raspberries and refreshing mint. It's silky and supple with brisk acidity and minerals up front, contrasting depths of ripe wild berry fruit. The 2019 stains the palate in primary concentration and fine-grained tannins. Citrus and licorice hints remain.	Vinous	91		2024-11-06
