La Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza Reserva MAGNUM 2017
Thrilled to be able to offer my thoughts on this special wine. Lunch with the full current release set from La Rioja Alta was thrilling. The wines are a demonstration of respect for the past and judicious use of modern technology combined with an approach that offer a style reminiscent of a refreshed classic. No fads here!The Ardanza is a ridiculous value. Coming on 10 years old. This is very good. The harmony and grape first tannin with layering of very subtle oak that wraps rather than in

Thibaud Boudignon Savennières 'Clos Frémine' 2023

Thibaud Boudignon Savennières ‘Clos Frémine’ 2023

Chenin Blanc | Savennières, D'Anjou-Saumur

The 2022 Savennières Clos de Fremine has purity and tranquility; it's a cloud of Chenin Blanc blossoming in the mouth. There were a lot of grapes that didn't make the grade in 2022 due to the hot, dry conditions of the season, but the strict sorting implemented by Boudignon and team appears to have done the trick. The wine is gently fresh, but a salty line provides persistence. An appetizing fragrance of chamomile, honey and nectarine lingers long in the mouth.Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous 94 Poi

La Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza Reserva MAGNUM 2019
With each step up through the range, the oak sophistication increases. Whilst clearly present in the Ardanza, it is much more sophisticated texturally. The 2019 Ardanza has a fresh line of acid. It's tight and quite vertical. Just starting to resolve. It still needs time to build expression and generosity. Saline with blue fuits. Linear shape and flow with excellent transparency. It's be intriguing to sit on a bottle over a couple of days and see where it ended up.Paul Kaan, Wine Decoded May

Pinot Noir | France, Burgundy

“Once again, the expressive nose is exceptionally pretty with its array of rose petal, exotic spice and layered crushed red berry nuances. I very much like the mid-palate texture of the barely middleweight flavors that contrasts somewhat with a lingering finish where a touch of asperity slowly emerges.” Allen Meadows, Burghound 88-90 Points JM 88-91

White Blend | France, Alsace

Lovely perfume, faint line of lanolin / wet wool. Restrained and sophisticated lovely mid-palate, graceful yet powerful. Such incredible harmony, this is insanely good.So much going on here. Morphs and evolves in the glass, pear with a savoury layer and beyond reminds me to some degree of the Gobelsburg 3 year in style. Seriously impressive gear.“This effortlessly integrates the rich and creamy, spicy and textural sides of Alsace wines to create a powerful yet animating whole. Lot

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Rabajà' 2020
AG 97 ML 95 KO 97
The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Rabajà is another stellar wine in this range. Dark and explosive, the 2021 possesses notable richness to match its dark, brooding personality. Black cherry, plum, leather, cloves, menthol, licorice and gravel explode onto the palate. The 2020 will require a measure of patience, but it has a ton of potential.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 97 PointsIn this vintage, the Rabajà was served last in a series of nine Riservas; that's because it shows the most structure

A complex, beautifully layered wine, the 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico expresses so many of the attributes that make the wines from this vintage and site so intriguing. The bouquet alone is wonderfully complex. Dried herbs, mint, pine, tobacco and cedar open first, leading to a core of chiseled dark-toned fruit. A vertical, structured Barbaresco, the Montefico is superb.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 96 PointsTwo standouts from the 2020 vintage are Montefico and Asili. The Produttori de

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Montestefano' 2020

The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Montestefano is one of the most elegant, polished wines in this range. Bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, spice, mint and cedar are beautifully lifted. The tannins are remarkably polished for a young, recently bottled Riserva. I admire its poise and elegance. This is an especially refined edition of the Montestefano. In 2020, the mix of vineyards is a bit younger than in the past, as one of the blocks of older vineyards was replanted and not used. If I could have o

The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is gorgeous. It offers a beguiling mix of intense fruit and supporting structure. A wine of depth and complexity, Asili has a lot of everything. It is clearly a step or two above many of the wines in this range. Today, the 2020 comes across as a bit somber, but that may partly be a reflection of its recent bottling. There's gorgeous depth and resonance in the Asili.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 96 PointsThe Produttori del Barbaresco 2020 Barbaresco Ris

The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Rio Sordo is pretty closed today, which is probably a very good sign for its aging prospects, as this site tends to produce wines that are more open than this. Dark cherry, plum, leather, incense and tobacco offer a decidedly somber expression of Rio Sordo. The 2020 clearly needs time.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 94 PointsThe Produttori del Barbaresco 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Rio Sordo comes from an area that is further removed from the Tanaro River and has sout

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Pora is aromatic, effusive and quite charming. Crushed flowers, spice, leather, tobacco and cedar lend notable inner sweetness. Medium in body and gracious, the Pora is pretty approachable today, although it will be better with a few years in bottle. This is a very beautiful, vivid Pora and a fine introduction to the Riservas.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 93 Points This is the first wine served in a flight of nine that increase in intensity and power moving for

The 2020 Barbaresco Riserva Pajè is a classic wine from this site. Deeply spiced and balsamic notes meld into a core of dark, sepia-toned Nebbiolo fruit. A Barbaresco of real presence and substance, the Pajè makes itself felt. It's one of my early dark horse favorites in this range from Produttori del Barbaresco.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 95 PointsThe Pajè vineyard faces the Tanaro River and is tucked at back of a narrow theater of vines.
