Thibaud Boudignon Anjou Blanc à Francois(e) 2022

Chenin Blanc | Loire Valley, Anjou

Made from a small parcel in the village of Saint-Lambert, the 2022 Anjou Blanc à Francois(e) is a mouth-filling style without any heaviness. The generosity of the 2022 season has been curbed, and there's a nervousness and slightly reductive nature that keeps it tight. Expect an attractive sourness from the acidity and salinity. The finish has a nice twist of savory character with 20% new oak (500-liter and cigar format). Time is needed here to ameliorate.Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous 93 Points

Clemens Busch Riesling Marienburg Auslese 2023

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

The Riesling 2023 Marienburg Auslese, as it is referred to on the central part of the label, is a fully sweet wine with a gorgeously aromatic and complex nose of honeyed yellow peach, pineapple, licorice, spices, candied grapefruit, mango, acacia, lavender, and yellow plum. The wine develops a superbly creamy, rich, mouth-coating side on the palate, with an almost viscous and unctuous side and plenty of honeyed and yellow fruits, as well as some exotic presence (mainly mango and guava).

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Ravera’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Red brick dust. Red flowers, heart shape. A little more serious tannins than Monvigliero. Flowing and tapered, heart-shaped, of length. Delicacy. Time will see this fill out nicely. Super vibrant red fruit with a lick of baking spice. Fine line of acid, playful grip to the tannins. Long flavour.ID 94 Points GW 96+ Points

Gardini 98 ID 94 GW 93+
Perfumed. Wonderful shape and flow. Savoury and earthy with roses. A certain delicacy. Beautifully spiced, aromatically a little more developed yet fresh and vibrant, playful with a generosity. Clearly needs a little more time to come together and settle the acid tannin complex layering in nicely. Long and nutty tannins. The freshness of the 2021 vintage.A superb expression of Verduno.Gardini 98 Points ID 94 Points GW 93+ Points

Giovanni Sordo Barolo 'Rocche di Castiglione' 2021
Gardini 96 ID 91+ GW 95
Bold and ripe fruit with a richness on the nose that needs time to settle. The faded flowers are really coming through with time in the glass. The umami needs time to pull back. More balanced on the palate than nose in its youth. Fresh, vibrant and energetic the acid comes through fine and long with a darkness from that tar / licorice / slate character around a core of red fruit. Such a flavourful wine.Gardini 96 Points ID 91+ Points GW 95 Points

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Perno’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Classic Sordo Perno, The darkness and oppulence of fruit on the nose. The palate very tightly would closed. Yet you can see the core of fruit behind it. Juvenille and in need of the usual 5 years to settle. Everything in its place and ready to go. Inkling of the truffle and secondary character.Grab a 2021 Ca' di Press Barolo 'Perno' for a tasty side by side.Paul Kaan, Wine DecodedID 94

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Parussi’ 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Dark horse. Brooding, it looks a little mean at the moment. It will definitely fall into line and become a generous and juicy wine. A gravity and immediate presence to it. A load of complexity here a little coffee and tea and bit more Serralunga. Long firm tannins. ID 92+ Points

The Playful!

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Ravera’ 2015

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Ravera = generosity with crunchy fruit and playful front mid-palate tannin, that Sordo élévage, so much fun! ‘Ravishing red’ as usual, a wave of roses and red cherry. Quite lush, but holds its shape as all that red rolls to the pinpoint, tingling finish. It’s no wonder Ravera has risen so much in people’s estimation over recent years. Serious Barolo of a distinct style.

Giovanni Sordo Barolo 'Monvigliero' 2015
The Playful!
Opening with juby cherry fruit that resolved beautifully in the glass, a slight lift in the structural tannins compared with the Ravera, remaining plush & playful! The star cru of an otherwise workmanlike comune, this is exactly why Monvigliero is so widely appreciated. It has the range of generous Barolo things; cherry and strawberry notes now, probably in youthful mode, but with the usual cherry-skin, raisin and smoky elements just apparent. Overall such an ambassador for Barolo, just this sid

The Bold!

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Parussi’ 2015

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Showing tannins of Castiglione Falletto, even and long. Darker and brooding. This is going to a cracker in time. Was immense after a day in the glass! This is the darkest of the 4 Castiglione cru, with its dark red fruits of cherry and cranberry. It usually shows more immediate plummy ripeness and overt generosity, but this time it’s more tightly wound. Plenty of texture and flavour, but needs time. A beauty.
