Louis Boillot-Barthod Fleurie ‘Grille Midi’ 2019

Gamay Noir | Moulin à Vent, France

“Aromas of raspberries, plums, peonies and warm spices introduce the 2019 Fleurie Grille-Midi, a medium to full-bodied, layered and lively wine that's delicate and refined, with ripe tannins and a succulent core of fruit. As was the case in 2018, this is one of the most elegant wines in the range.” William Kelly, The Wine Advocate

Guímaro’s wines draw you in. At this level, they move well beyond and above the playful, juby, joven styles. Complex, savoury, layered with sophisticated tannins all of Guímaro's top wines show a deft hand in élévage to elicit the personality of the fruit from which they are made.There's a build in weight and richness here over the Miño river sibling to this wine.The San Pedro has a beautiful acid balance. Savoury salami, spiced, energy and freshness, super complex. Harmonise

Domaine Trapet Père et Fils Bourgogne Rouge 2022

Pinot Noir | Gevrey-Chambertin, Burgundy

Sourced from vineyards immediately next to the Gevrey-Champertin AOCUltra-fresh aromas of red pinot fruit, spice and more discreet earth nuances lead to equally delicious and more finely textured middleweight flavors that possess notably better volume on the better balanced and sneaky long finish. This is quite good for what it is and worth checking out.Allen Meadows, Burghound 87 PointsThe 2022 Bourgogne Rouge delivers notes of cherries, plums, smoke and loamy soil, fol

La Ca’ Növa Barbaresco 2019

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

Excellent bright fruit, fine dusty tannins, long with a beautiful flavour profile, poised and delicious. Thirst-quenching drink. Red fruits, with a little, orange citrus, slight savoury note. Great balance here. A joy. Tasted 30 May 2022.La Ca' Növa 2019 Barbaresco will tempt readers with its effusive aromatics and compelling Nebbiolo fruit, but a few years in bottle are advisable to help the tannins soft. Medium in body and wonderfully translucent, the 2019 is such a great example of w

I have an ever-growing soft spot for the whites of Mount Etna, they have seen great leaps in quality over recent times.The fruit for Pietradolce’s Arhcineri Etna Bianco is sourced from pre-phylloxera vines planted at 850-900 metres on the eastern slopes near Milo, the undisputed white growing sub-region of Mount Etna. You’ll find the whites from Milo to be generally a cooler reflection of Carricante with slightly lower alcohol, higher acid and minerality.The precision and purity her

I've been watching Kientzler over the last decade now and have seen them consistently produce excellent wines from the Lieu Dit Muhlforst and the Grand Cru vineyards of Osterberg, Geisberg and Schoenenbourg.The 2021 Osterberg is beautiful, refined, long, layered & complex with exceptional acid and that Kientzler house funk. A long. linear line of super fine matches, citrus, musk, jasmine & spice. This is very very good. Exceptional development looks like oak élévage, yet it is rais

My two favourite Neb's from Sandrone came from the polar opposites of the price spectrum. The Valmaggiore at under a $100 is around 1/10th the price of the Vite Talin, Sandrone's super cuvée.Sandrone’s Valmaggiore is a different expression of Nebbiolo to those from the nearby Barolo and Barbaresco. Superb. Elegance and restraint with intensity and depth. Delicate super fine tannins gently dust the palate with a gentle grip. Sour red cherry perfectly supported by a beautifully weighted co

The first time we've had Sandro Fay's wine from the Sassella sub-zone of Valtellina and it's a ripper. A step up from the Valgella appropriately reflected in the price difference. Longer and with more mid-palate depth it shows excellent flow and shape. The pure, fine acid and long sophisticated tannins make for an equally refreshing drop. Darker sour cherry fruit laced with slate, spice and lick of that alpine thing doing on. Great transparency. Loads of joy to be had with this pleasure festa!

Yes! Stunning gear. I think the guys from Mosel Fine Wines calling it and Auslese Lange GK style is bang on. Lange GK = Long Gold Capsule and reference to the Reserve of the Reserve wines in Aussie vernacular. Give this 10-20 years and you'll be climbing a stairway to heaven!The 2017er Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Auslese was harvested at well over 110° Oechsle. It offers a very classy and elegant nose of apricot blossom, whipped cream, almond, smoke and fine herbs. The wine proves highly

A super-filigree Mosel Auslese that impresses with fabulous delicacy and precision. So much vanilla-bean character, but also tropical-flower aromas. Beautifully integrated grape sweetness at the long, very refined finish. Stuart Piggot, SucklingAlso available in 375ml and Magnum!

Cantine Garrone Prünent 2018

Red Blend | Valli Ossolane, Alto Piemonte

Neb from the FAR NORTH ... Stylistically think the more ethereal communes of Valtellina! Brooding and darker than the Ca d’Mate with a build in structure. A little Austere, yet you can see there is much to come with time in bottle. Openning in the glass to reveal woody herbs, fresh sour cherry and complexities beyond.Such a different balance point to Barolo & Barbaresco. 13.5% sees vibrant fruit with layered dusty ripe tannins, whereas Barolo and Barbaresco need 14.5% for the same.
