2018	Vignerons de Buxy	Givry 1er Cru Clos Jus	A meld of blackberry compote, cassis, wild mint and thyme aromatics creates a compelling nose. Silky tannins and pronounced spice are elevated by mouthwatering acidity on the palate. With aeration, the wine demonstrates balance and high-toned flavors of plum and fresh apples you can sink your teeth into. Delicious.	Wine Enthusiast	92		2024-09-03
2021	Domaine du Pegau	Cuvee Maclura Cotes du Rhone	Made from the classic GSM blend, with a touch of Cinsault, this wine exudes complexity through a seamless blend of black cherry, mushroom, olive and violet. The palate is accessible and savory, with a soft midpalate of plum that trails to a finish of tobacco, cocoa and rose petal. A versatile gastronomic companion, this wine overdelivers for its price. Hidden Gem.	Wine Enthusiast	92		2024-09-03
2023	Arnaud Combier	Blanc-Sain	Fresh and a bit flinty, this features apple, citrus, butter and spice notes on an elegant frame. It shows just a hint of mineral on the lingering finish. Best Buy.	Wine Enthusiast	Best Buy		2024-09-03
2020	Tezza - Corte Majoli	Amarone della Valpolicella		Luca Maroni	95		2024-09-03
2022	Vignerons de Buxy	Mercurey	This is a fragrant, fresh and medium-bodied pinot noir that has aromas and flavors of wild raspberries, oranges and nutmeg. Lightly chalky tannins that don’t detract from the fruit. Drink now.	James Suckling	90		2024-08-30
2023	Lava Cap	Chardonnay El Dorado	Nicely layered, rich and creamy, this full-bodied wine coats the palate with indulgent fruit and spices and lingers long in the finish. Baked peaches, vanilla bean, creme fraiche and toasted almonds. It’s luxurious without being heavy or cloying. Drink now.	James Suckling	92		2024-08-26
2023	Morgan	Sauvignon Blanc Arroyo Seco	Aged for 5 months in 8% new French and Hungarian oak, the 2023 Morgan Sauvignon Blanc gifts a light lemon core with a watery rim. Lemon citrus, fresh pineapple, and lemony herbs are all present on the nose and on the palate. It finishes clean and lengthy with a touch of crushed stone minerality on the finish.

2021	Pursued by Bear	Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley	This distinguished red is sleekly structured and expressive, with refined black cherry flavors accented by dusky spice, pencil lead and espresso tones that build tension toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032.	Wine Spectator	93		2024-08-22
2021	Pursued by Bear	Syrah ‘Baby Bear’ Columbia Valley	Refined yet vibrant and expressive, with raspberry and delicate blueberry flavors accented by fresh violet, grilled anise and smoked pepper notes that build richness and polish toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032.	Wine Spectator	93		2024-08-22
2022	Morgan	Pinot Noir 'Twelve Clones' Santa Lucia Highlands	The 2022 Twelve Clones was aged in 36% new French oak for 9 months and pours a medium ruby-blue core with a light purple rim in the glass. Purple flowers and rich Marionberries hit the nose up front, while secondary notes of sweet baking spices, cedary herbs, and baked red raspberries play second fiddle. It finished with lovely vanilla bean and blue fruit tones alongside moderate acidity and sweet tannins.	International Wine Report	92		2024-08-22
