There are 8 objective criteria I use to assess wine. This wine gets a big tick for all of them! Then there is a 9th objective criteria, Style or Overall Beauty. Think you’d be hard pressed to find a wine lover that could hold their hand on their heart and say this wasn’t a beautiful wine.

Chardonnay from Meursault, Côte du Beaune
This is a new Javillier cuvee and as such has not had the chance for review.“It is a blend of several selected plots in Meursault. This wine shows great aromatic power with a good acid balance. It is a structured wine with a long finish. The 2018 vintage is characterized by the power but above all the elegance.”Marion Javillier
Riesling from Siefersheim, Rheinhessen
Beautifully balanced, it rests toward the acid side of the scales, with a touch less alcohol, taming rich luscious fruits. We often get seduced by opulence. Daniel's 2015's from sites yielding some of the ripest fullest fruit in the Rheinhessen certainly have such seduction. The 2016 Porphyr, beautifully balanced, it rests toward the acid side of the scales, with a touch less alcohol, taming rich luscious fruits. Such a sophisticated wine of great line and length.
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
"AP: 05 19. The 2018er Graacher Domprobst Riesling Spätlese AP 05 was harvested at 93° Oechsle in the Nikolausley and Gerdsgrub and was fermented down to fully fruity-styled levels of residual sugar. The wine offers a gorgeous nose dried herbs, hay, greengage, whipped cream, and smoky elements. It is overtly fruity yet playful on the delicately creamy palate and leaves a clean and pure feel of herbs and spices in the long finish. 2028-2048"Mosel Fine Wines
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
Set in the very heart of the Grand Cru area, Vaudesir has a subtle diversity in exposure. Its steep terrain contains more clay than limestone and produces wines of great finesse and elegance.
