Domaine Didier Dagueneau Buisson Renard Blanc VDF 2022

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Buisson Renard Blanc VDF 2022

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

“I’m a bit of a fan of the Buisson Renard. At the bottom of the hill below the winery in the village of Saint-Andelain, there's a greater proportion of clay to flint, giving a broadness to the wine's shape that envelops the whole mouth. In 2022, you can smell the warmth of the vintage and experience its richness and yet its sense of lightness. There's an appealing chew to the wine, and on the finish, a salty residue that makes you want to continue drinking. It retains acidity, line and lengt

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Blanc Fumé de Pouilly 2016

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Blanc Fumé de Pouilly 2016

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, France

The first bottle of Didier's wines I devoured was a bottle of Silex in 2001 with Doc when I was working with him at Yarra Yering. We were looking to benchmark for the Dry White No.1, a Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc blend. It was included in a bracket with some exceptional white Bordeaux. Prior Didier's wine I had not been impressed by the Pouilly-Fumé I had tasted, most of it green, weedy, cats piss. Silex was a breath of fresh air.Jefford's commentary sums it up beautifully. “His wines smel

Domaine de l'Arlot Nuits-Saint-Georges '1er Cru Clos des Forêts Saint Georges' Monopole 2021
“There is a lovely depth of color here, and the perfume is enticing with its boysenberry fruit and chalky minerality. The palate has a lovely depth of ripeness, precise and fine tannins and elegant, refreshing length. This is one of the prettiest Clos des Fôrets St-Georges I have ever tasted.” Christine Canterbury MW, Tim Atkin MW Burgundy Special Report 94 Points“Dense red to crimson.

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Montestefano' MAGNUM 2019
KO 99 AG 95
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Montestefano is perhaps the most complete of the 2019 Riservas at this stage. It offers fine depth, plenty of tannin and nascent emerging inner sweetness to tie it all together. A wine of stature and textural depth, the Montestefano is my early favorite in this lineup.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 95 Points KO 99*NOTE Galloni tasted in Sept 2023 noting his intent to look at the PdB Riservas in 12 months expecting they will resolve and shift up.

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Rabajà' MAGNUM 2019
KO 97 AG 94
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Rabajà  is redolent of dark fruit, crushed rocks, graphite, sage, menthol and lavender all race across the palate, supported by bracing, young Rabajà tannins that make themselves felt. This mid-weight, powerhouse Barbaresco packs quite a punch.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 94 Points KO 97*NOTE Galloni tasted in Sept 2023 noting his intent to look at the PdB Riservas in 12 months expecting they will resolve and shift up.

Produttori del Barbaresco Riserva 'Ovello' MAGNUM 2019
KO 96 AG 94
The 2019 Barbaresco Riserva Ovello is powerful, savory and intensely linear, in classico Ovello style, and yet it appears to have enough fruit behind its imposing tannins to develop well over the coming years. In this tasting, the Ovello feels pretty closed post bottling, but its inherent balance and qualities are there. Clean saline notes extend the finish in promising fashion.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 94 Points KO 96*NOTE Galloni tasted in Sept 2023 noting his intent to look at the P

Figli Luigi Oddero 'Vigna Rionda' Riserva Barolo 2015

Figli Luigi Oddero ‘Vigna Rionda’ Riserva Barolo 2015

Nebbiolo | Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo

Listening to Matt Large who's just back from his annual trek for vintage at Luigi Oddero with Francesco Versio I learnt so much about Vigna Rionda. Like Burgundy and Cannubi, there's Vigna Rionda and then there's Vigna Rionda! Oddero is the original. South South-East facing sandwiched between Giovanni Rosso's Ester Canale and Poderi Oddero's parcel on lean helvetian soils high in mineral content and at elevation have offered up divine fruit.The 2015 shows the structured tannins of Serralunga

Domaine de Montille Volnay 1er Cru 'En Champans' 2020
"Here too moderate reduction renders the nose difficult to assess. The relatively delicate and refined middle weight flavors possess no lack of punch that carries over to the youthfully austere, complex and sneaky long finish that is quite tightly wound so patience advised."

Domenico Clerico Barolo 'Bricotto' 2021

Domenico Clerico Barolo ‘Bricotto’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Excellent generosity, savoury with a rich core of perfumed fruit and fine, elegant tannin. Mostly sand in the vineyards of Bussia here. Plush, blood red fruit mix with a pinch of baking spice. Chocolatey fanning out generously. Only 13 times since 1978. Consistency of weather throughout the year the key. A welcoming wine with great finesse. It's a demonstration of just how different the terroirs of Monforte are, justifying the work being done to break it down into a more granular set of MGAs.

One of the most profound Clos des Forêts I've had from Arlot! Great core of dark fruit. Lovely tannins 100% destemmed after starting in 2021 with destemming. Very complete wine. Showing great touch. That lovely balance that sees it in a style between Gevrey and Vosne-Romanée. Plush, fine & super long. Perfumed with roses and delicate spice. Soft fine. Immediate approachability yet this will clearly offer so much more with time in bottle. Give this 7 years and you’ll be happy give it 15 a

Domaine Faiveley Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru 'Les Cazetiers' 2022
A more discreet if still easily perceptible dollop of wood can be found on the more deeply pitched aromas of poached plum, forest floor and a more subtle hint of the sauvage. The supersleek, intense and beautifully textured medium weight flavors exude evident minerality on the powerful, youthfully austere and beautifully balanced finale that displays excellent length.
