Nebbiolo from Barbaresco, Piedmont
We have benefited from a delayed release of the Cortese 2021’s. It’s fascinating reading critic notes from barrel tastings and just post-bottling. They are such a snapshot in time. Seeing this 2+ years after the most recent critic notes shows they had solid insights. The Blue Label Barbaresco was first released just a few years ago and has consistently represented exceptional value underpinned by quality fruit and the deft hand in the winery. The 2021 continues to follow this short, yet impr
Nebbiolo from Monforte d'Alba, Barolo
From Ravera in Monforte. As the vines age they will make Barolo! From Ravera in Monforte, this is made from the youngest vines (that will eventually be made as Barolo) and is made the same way as her three Barolos and then aged in barriques for twelve months. As a baby Barolo, this has some serious pedigree with rich, plush fruit of red berries with crushed flowers. Hard to beat for the money and an ‘affordable’ cellaring option.**Due Sept 2025**
Carricante from Etna, Sicily
Wow! This is dynamite! Pure, crystalline energy. The divine funk of whites with low pH, that lanolin twist and earthy spice that you often see in great white Burg's and top-end dry rizza from Alsaca & Germany. Superb texture, the quality of the acid & phenolics wrapping fruit of great intensity and transparency is insane. The shape & flow caress & ignite!The intrigue builds with citrus oils, white flowers, a good pinch of salt, a little earthiness and a savoury play. This is

Chenin Blanc from Anjou, D'Anjou-Saumur
The Anjou Blanc was previously produced from bought-in fruit, but the 2021 vintage was made up of 50% of the estate's fruit. Tasted after being opened for three days, it has taken on an added richness and roundness that wasn't previously there. There's a mere soupçon of flinty character. Intense and precise, with laser-like acidity flying through the mouth like an arrow. The finish is nutty, pastry and lightly salty, lingering with the merest tonic-like bitterness.Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous 91
Palomino from Jerez de la Frontera, Anadlucía
A Vino de Pasto from the laminated Albarizas Barajuelas of Pago Macharnudo. Willy Perez has turned out an absolutely ripping 'Escribana' in 2024. Willy clearly has epic touch eliciting balance, complexity, texture and freshness to give us an entrancing wine. In reference to flavour I typical refer to a core of fruit for most grape varieties and wines. Drinking Vino de Pasto, I prefer to refer to a core of flavour. The 2024 'Escribana' certainly has flavour to burn. Saline & nutty with gr
Chenin Blanc from Vouvray, Touraine
“The 2021 Clos du Bourg Sec is an ample, full bodied wine with a stream of acidity. Pure, floral and fragrant with aromas of pineapple, violets and fresh grapes. While rich, it is light in sensation, like a cloud of Chenin filling the mouth, and finishes with a fine, almost powdery and chalky texture.”Rebecca Gibb, Vinous 95 Points
Chardonnay from Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte du Beaune
100% Chassagne fruit. This is a delicious drink straight off the bat. Approachable young and good to go over the next few years. A level of generosity and immediate appeal while showing the freshness and hinting at the complexity and precision that comes as you move through Alex's range.The 2023 Bourgogne Blanc offers up aromas of white flowers, citrus zest and sourdough bread, followed by a medium-bodied, fleshy and vibrant palate.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 88-89 Points
Nebbiolo from Neive, Barbaresco
Excellent drinking at this price point. Complete with well developed strawberries and cream with savoury, generous fruit. Playful and fun, solid depth and length. This is a big step up from the standard Barbaresco. The sophistication of mouthfeel, layering of tannins and flavours marking the difference. Serraboella turns out wines of interest from a number of producers including Barale, looking forward to seeing their 2019 too! This one is well worth a look.
Pinot Noir from Burgundy, France
There is a level of sophistication that you typically only see at the next level up, the village wines! “Super-fresh aromas of cool and pretty red berries are laced with earth elements that are also reflected by the vibrant and nicely detailed middle weight flavors that possess fine depth and length for a wine at this level.” Allen Meadows, 86-89 Points ♥ Outstanding Top valueThe fruit for the Bourgogne comes largely from Gevrey-Chambertin with a splash from Brochon.

Timorasso from Colli Tortonesi, Piedmont
Straight out of the gate these two top Timorassos from Claudio are again very, very good. Finer and more linear than the Calvallina, with those lemon citrus oils that delight. Lovely, refreshing. Phenolics with a light hand adding textural intrigue along with the lees. Florals and perfume entrance with grace floating above the glass. Complex funk building as it opens. Yet another success from Claudio Mariotto!Gambero Rosso Tre Bichierre Winner 🍷🍷🍷
