Head to the Rhône Valley, where you’ll, Viognier, Roussane and Marsanne with their amazing textures and spice. Cross the border to Italy and it’s Arneis, Verdicchio, Greco, Carricante, and, Garganega offering up often flavours very different to those of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Revel in the diversity of white wine styles created, as winemakers seek to balance sugar, acid, alcohol, phenolics, the use of oak, lees, and, skin contact to create wines of harmony and personality.
Perhaps in Riesling more than any other white wine will you find nearly every style imaginable.
The wine world is producing better wines than ever before. In regions where laws permit broad experimentation with growing and making white wines is resulting in rapid evolution and refinement of styles.
Australia’s push to evolve Chardonnay is the perfect example!

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
Drawn from three hectares on the steep slopes opposite Fourchaume, Bessin’s ‘flagship’ cuvée is blended from six parcels of the domaine’s oldest village-level vines in La Chapelle-Vaupelteigne. These vines were planted between 1950 and 1974 across Kimmeridgian marl and Portlandian soils of varying exposures. The grapes were pressed as bunches and fermented with indigenous yeasts. The wine aged for 18 months in a temperature-controlled tank, with a small amount going into neutral oak. A
Chardonnay from Meursault, Côte du Beaune
Bourgogne from Meursault Vineyards! Proving once again that you have to know the fruit source of any Bourgogne level wines. Javillier's are both from vineyards in Meursault. The Cuvée de Forgets from the Volnay side and the Cuvée Oligocène from the Puligny side.
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The 2023er Riesling vom grauen Schiefer, as it is referred to on the main part of the label, comes from blue-slate sectors in the Pündericher Marienburg. It displays a superbly complex and finely aromatic nose of lime, minty herbs, anise, tangerine, candied grapefruit, greengage, lime tree, and apple. The wine starts off on a slightly round side with fruity and light creamy elements dominating at first, before more grip and intensity comes through. The finish is nicely focused, spicy, and l
What a wonderful exploration of Trebbiano the wines of Ciavolich, Tiberio and Emidio Pepe. On the continuum Tiberio is the freshest with least oxidative handling, Ciavolich is in the middle and Emidio Pepe has the full beans! All are delightful expression and all that is left for us to do is enjoy and celebrate the difference.The 2024 is just the second vintage of Ciavolich's Trebbiano 'Fosso Cancelli' I've seen. Bought it on spec after devouring a bottle of the 2021. The 2024 is serious
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
Here too there is enough wood influence suffusing the aromas of mineral reduction, pretty floral wisps, spice and iodine to merit mentioning. I very much like the sophisticated texture of the acceptably concentrated middleweight flavors that deliver excellent depth and length on the firm, youthfully austere and sneaky long finale. Unlike the Fourchaume which could be reasonably approached young, this more compact effort will need at least a few years of keeping first.Burghound ♥ Sweet Spo
Riesling from Kremstal, Niederösterreich
Beautifully refined, textural layered. Stunning shape and flow. Super fine acid. Exceptional élévage and secondary characters. Very, very good.On the 2021: The 2021 Riesling Kirchensteig was harvested in a sub-parcel of the Sprinzenberg on very poor granulite soils and pressed in a basket press. The nose is shy—everything happens on the palate, which projects fully ripe Amalfi lemon on a smooth, round but absolutely citrus-driven body. This has ripeness and fill, body and flow, but a
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
“A nose of freshness – almost cold and saline – it has my attention. Mouth-filling. Super energy to this wine – plenty of citrus bitters again that slightly modify the texture – interestingly you note the barrel more in the flavours this time than the aromas – the reverse of the last wine – but the elevage was the same. Again, a great wine but wait 2 -3 years”Bill Nanson“More lemon than lime, a little touch of coconut, the wine has the intensity to handle it, amazin
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
“Another wine which started out in wood for 50% of the volume, which may explain the light coconut touch. Great floral points alongside, such energy of fruit, primary yellow notes, clean concentrated citrus zest, long saline finish. Another beautiful wine from this site.”Jasper Morris 90-92 Points 5-Star Wine
Chardonnay from Picadilly Valley, Adelaide Hills
Subtle fine, brooding, tightly coiled length depth fine the acid was super fine. Sophistication in the flow of the fruit really very good. Generosity of fruit yet restraint. Another excellent edition. Again, the evenness of the weight through the palate is exceptional. The textural finesse and length outstanding. Layered beautiful wine. Stunning build of flavour and intensity with chalky fine acid. Incredibly complete and harmonious. Restraint with power. Now there's a trick!The 2023 Tapanap
Chenin Blanc from Anjou, D'Anjou-Saumur
NOTE on the 2022: ‘The 2022 Anjou Blanc from Thibaud Boudignon reveals a perfumed, exotic bouquet with aromas of green mango, pineapple, pear and spices intertwined with a touch of toast. More depth and fleshier than the 2021, it’s medium-bodied, perfectly balanced with a seamless, layered texture and a delicately bitter finish. Tasted Jan 2024 Yohan Castaing, The Wine Advocate 93 PointsNOTE on the 2021: The Anjou Blanc was previously produced from bought-in fruit, but the 2021 vint
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
Always a favourite! In England they offer tea in the afternoon in the Mosel they offer Kabinett! The 2024 Riesling Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett is still a little flinty but tender green apple shows through. The palate stays on this beautifully bright side where fruitiness is juicy and tart, but its freshness is absolutely subsumed and intertwined with ripeness. Its beautiful lightness is grounded in slaty stone like a scented breeze. The 2024 is gorgeous.Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous 93 Points
