Stéphane Magnien Morey Saint Denis ‘Vielles Vignes’ 2022

Stéphane Magnien Morey Saint Denis ‘Vielles Vignes’ 2022

Pinot Noir | Morey-Saint-Denis, Burgundy

Moderate reduction dominates the nose at present. There is both better complexity and mid-palate density to the still supple and delicious medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a more powerful and noticeably more structured finale. This has fine development potential and is a wine that will need at least some patience. Drink: 2030+Allen Meadows, Burghound 89-91 Points

Voliero Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Voliero Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Italy

The sister to the Uccelliera brother, same winery, same maker, different fruit, and personality! Many who have tasted both the Uccelliera and Voliero Brunello over a number of years remark that they prefer the Uccelliera in the cooler years, and the Voliero in the bolder years. 2019 like 2016 has somehow managed to make the choice a little harder.A mentholated freshness introduces the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino, as a vibrant wave of crushed cherries, mint leaf, clove and dusty roses mak

Ar.Pe.Pe Valtellina Superiore Riserva Inferno Sesto Canto 2018
The 2018 Valtellina Superiore Inferno Riserva Sesto Canto is poised, elegant and exceptionally polished. Brisk acids and beams of supporting tannin give this deceptively mid-weight Riserva tons of energy. The 2018 remains vibrant and super-expressive, perhaps a bit linear, but immensely enjoyable just the same.Antonio Galloni, Vinous 94 Points

Ar.Pe.Pe Valtellina Superiore Riserva Sassella Rocce Rosse 2018
The 2018 Valtellina Superiore Sassella Riserva Rocce Rosse is bright, lifted and translucent in the glass. It offers striking intensity and yet remains light on its feet. Crushed red berry fruit, white flowers, mint, chalk and tangerine peel build with time in the glass, filling out the layers effortlessly. There is a feeling of translucency here that is utterly beguiling. Readers will find a wine of real stature and pedigree. Antonio Galloni, Vinous 94 Points

Ar.Pe.Pe Valtellina Superiore Riserva Grumello Buon Consiglio 2018
The 2018 Valtellina Superiore Grumello Riserva Buon Consiglio is gorgeous. Crushed red berry fruit, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco and pomegranate are all very nicely lifted. Soft contours and mid-weight structure give the 2018 tons of sensuality and overall appeal. Its balance is spot on. Antonio Galloni, Vinous 93 Points

The name has changed from Vigna Regina to Nuova Regina the wine is the same ... Delicious!

Domaine Vincent Dureuil-Janthial Rully Rouge 1er Cru 'Chapitre' 2022
A cool and exuberantly spicy dark berry-suffused nose is quite floral and in particular with violet hints. The sleek, intense and beautifully delineated medium-bodied flavors exude a subtle minerality on the youthfully austere, punchy and well-balanced finale. This needs to add depth at least a few years of cellaring are recommended.

Domaine Louis Boillot Volnay 'les Grands Poisots' 2022
“This is also quite fresh and airy but with a dark fruit profile of plum, violet and more obvious earth influence. There is also slightly better volume to the focused and precise medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a beautifully balanced and impressively complex finish that is less rustic than it usually is. Lovely for its level." ♥ Outstanding Allen Meadows, Burghound 89-92 Points NM 91-93

"An overtly floral and spice-suffused nose is a bit more deeply pitched with mostly notes of poached plum and black cherry liqueur. There is better vibrancy to the precise and attractively textured medium-bodied flavors that display fine length on the dusty, even chalky, and youthfully austere finish that is notably firmer. Fine quality here."Allen Meadows, Burghound 90-92 Points
