“A high point of the range is the 2019 Pommard 1er Cru Les Croix Noires, a terrific wine that unfurls in the glass with complex aromas of raspberries, plums, raw cocoa, sweet spices, licorice and grilled squab. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, it's deep and multidimensional, with melting tannins and lively acids, concluding with a long, expansive finish.” William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 94 Points JM 92-94Several years after Kelley's tasted this his note remains true.

This is also aromatically perfumed with better layering to the spicier aromas of mostly red cherry and rose petal. There is markedly more refinement to the seductively, even generously, textured medium weight flavors that also exude a subtle bead of minerality on the impressively long, balanced and more complex finale. This is excellent and is a wine that could be approached young but reward a decade plus of cellaring. (from a .52 ha parcel) 2032+ ♥ Sweet spot OutstandingAllen Meadows, Bur

Domaine Antoine Jobard Meursault 2023

Chardonnay | Meursault, Burgundy

Here too there is a whiff of the exotic lurking in the background of the aromas of jasmine tea, white flower and passion fruit. The very generously proportioned flavors are rich to the point of opulence with a highly seductive mouthfeel before tightening up on the impressively long, balanced and complex finale. This is an excellent Meursault villages that is warmly recommended plus it should age gracefully. ♥ Outstanding Top valueAllen Meadows, Burghound 89-92 PointsNM 90-92Not

“An overtly floral-suffused nose speaks of airy red berry scents that are liberally laced with a lovely range of spice elements as well as subtle earth and humus nuances. There is markedly better complexity to the medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent punch and this sense of vibrancy also can be found on the long and quite firm finish that is moderately austere but not really rustic, indeed I would go so far as to describe this as a Pruliers of relative refinement, which isn't something

“This is at once brooding yet exceptionally fresh with its layered array of both red and dark berries, violet and a whiff of just turned earth. The rich, delicious and caressing medium weight flavors possess ample punch that carries over to the refreshing and youthfully austere finish that would also benefit from developing better depth with time in bottle." ♥ Outstanding Allen Meadows, Burghound 90-93 Points JM 91-94

A slightly more elegant nose features notes of poached plum, black raspberry, violet and anise hints. There is a notably finer mouthfeel to the attractively textured medium weight flavors that conclude in a firmer and better-balanced finale where a touch of austerity slowly emerges. 2028+ (from a .42 ha parcel)Allen Meadows, Burghound

“Dense dark purple. Powerful plums, a graphite note as well, significant density, the fruit swells right across the palate, a huge volume but the ripeness is perfectly judged, with an excellent length. This is very impressive. Reveling in the warmer vintage because the tannins are riper.” Jasper Morris

Auguste Clape Cornas 2020

Shiraz/Syrah | Rhône Valley, Cornas

Five in a Row for Clape with 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 all stunning vintages! I tasted four different components of the 2020 Cornas from foudre. From 40-year-old vines in La Côte, a medium to full-bodied sample with attractive menthol, red plum and violet notes, ample structure but a bit short (92 - 94). From 50- to 60-year-old vines in La Sabarotte, an earthier, more savory example, with a rich, velvety texture and crisp acids (93 - 95). From 60- to 70-year-old vines in La Côte, a wine

Cappellano Barolo ‘Rupestris’ 2019

Nebbiolo | Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo

An excellent Rupestris. Cappellano somehow manage to unfurl the Serralunga, Gabutti beast, taming it. Still tightly coiled and needing more time to fully resolve. All the components are there in all the right places and all the right levels, with exceptional Serralunga fruit and tannins. A darkness, brooding, tea and slightly dried orange zest, earthy, savoury, with a core of fruit of great depth and length. 2019 is a year of refined ripe tannins of depth. The fruit has palpable energy and wonde

Clemens Busch Riesling Marienburg 1er Grosses-Gewächs 'Fahrlay' MAGNUM 2023
Dry
The Marienburg GG Fahrlay 2023, as it is referred to on the central part of the label, was fermented spontaneously in traditional oak casks from fruit harvested in a blue slate part of the Marienburg vineyard. Still slightly reductive at first, it quickly shows a refreshing and pure nose of citrusy fruits, minty herbs, aniseed, almond, vineyard peach, and jasmine. The wine is pure and vibrating, as energetic and taut notes of citrusy fruits run through the palate. The finish is beautifully fr

“The 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes is especially good this year, offering up aromas of citrus oil, lemon curd, pear, white flowers and bread dough framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and suave, with a deep, multidimensional core of fruit, racy acids and chalky structuring extract, it concludes with a penetrating finish.”William Kelly, The Wine Advocate 93-95 Points“The 2022 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru has a primal yet well-defined bouque

This is exceptional! Fruit from the famed 'Rocche Rivera' Lieu Dit. It sits within Scarone Cru adjacent to Rocche di Castiglione with which it was historically combined.Matt Large calls Francesco Veriso a student of wine, always learning, evolving & refining. Clearly he is a very good student.Aromas of forest floor, dog rose, sun-warmed hay, berry and menthol come to the forefront on the stunning 2021 Scarrone Vigna Rocche Rivera along with whiffs of cinnamon.
