White Wine

From racy, crisp, Riesling, to rich full-bodied Chardonnay the white wine world has an incredible array of wine styles on offer.

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!

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Vin de France Blanc Etc 2023

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Vin de France Blanc Etc 2023

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, France

These sites produce the most direct, accessible expression of Pouilly-Fumé. Under Louis-Benjamin's guidance, its quality has improved dramatically, now rivalling his other wines. Layered and already open, the 2023 offers enormous complexity and pleasure for a young Dagueneau. Of course, it will only get better after 3 to 10 years in bottle.The first bottle of Didier's wines I devoured was a bottle of Silex in 2001 with Doc when I was working with him at Yarra Yering.

Trebbiano | Italy, Abruzzo

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 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Fosso Cancelli blends dusty dried flowers with white peaches and a lift of lemon sorbet.

Claudio Mariotto ‘Bricco San Michele’ Derthona Timorasso 2024

Timorasso | Piedmont, Colli Tortonesi

The 2024 sees a fuller, more textural wine than the 2023. The more golden colour the first indication. Textural, every so slightly oily phenolics and a gentle oxidative hand yield a complex, intriguing wine. Jasmine and white flowers lift from the glass over spices, white stone fruit and a little something exotic. Viognier and Chenin feels are playing around the edges. Elegant honey mixes with pops of cumquat and citrus zest. Mouthcoating with a transparency and a little pith at play. A demonstr

Domaine Guffens-Heynen Mâcon-Pierreclos 'Tris de Chavigne' 2024

Domaine Guffens-Heynen Mâcon-Pierreclos ‘Tris de Chavigne’ 2024

Chardonnay | Pouilly-Fuisse, Burgundy

The 2024 Mâcon-Pierreclos Tris de Chavigne blossoms in the glass with aromas of pear, white currant and freshly baked bread, mingled with a subtle exotic note of passion fruit. Medium-bodied and fleshy yet vibrant, it reveals a texture rarely encountered in this vintage, framed by structuring extract and a cool, marine profile, concluding with a long, saline finish. It incorporates some of the fruit that would typically inform his Juliette et Les Vieilles de Chavigne cuvée.Kristaps Karklin

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Buisson Renard Blanc VDF 2023

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Buisson Renard Blanc VDF 2023

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

This wine is priced above Pur Sang these days, indicating how highly the Domaine rates the vineyard and the wine. Buisson Renard is a cool mid-slope terroir on the southwest side of the Saint-Andelain hill and the soils are a mixture of clay and flint (or silex). The site was historically named Buisson Menard, as was the wine initially, but a wine writer mistakenly reviewed the wine as Buisson Renard. Renard means fox in French, and Buisson means bush, so the error gave the wine a name

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Silex VDF 2023

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

Silex is the ultimate Dagueneau wine in many ways: super-mineral, pure, crystalline and typically very long-lived. Silex means flint, and this wine is produced only from the flint-rich soils on the north-facing slopes of the hill of Saint-Andelain. The vines mostly range between 35 and 65 years old, and yields are kept lower than in most other vineyards. Silex ferments and ages in Dagueneau’s famed cigar-shaped barrels and other casks, and a portion now matures in 220-litre Wineglobe�

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Sancerre ‘Le Mont Damné’ 2023

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

Rarely exported as there is so little made, we only get a few bottles even at the best of times. Didier Dagueneau always dreamed of making a great Sancerre from the chalky slopes of Chavignol. It was only in the late ‘90s that he was able to acquire half a hectare of Les Monts Damnés, near Gérard Boulay’s Comtesse parcel, and soon planted it to his own exacting standards. The south-facing, steep site has white soil packed with chalk. The historic name of the parcel or climat (within Le

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Pur Sang VDF 2023

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Pur Sang VDF 2023

Sauvignon Blanc | Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire

Pur Sang, meaning ‘thoroughbred’ in French, originated from Didier Dagueneau’s frustration at wine writers constantly referencing that he ploughed this site by horse. The first label featured a horsehide rug image, if you get the joke. One of Dagueneau’s historic superstars, it comes from a 30-year-old, densely planted vineyard called La Folie (madness) in Saint-Laurent-l’Abbaye. Farmers wondered at Dagueneau buying the land, which was not a vineyard at the time (it had been long ago

Carricante

From the vineyard Frontemare, in front of the sea. The first release of the sister wine to the Frontebosco.More tightly wound at the moment everything appears to be there in all the right places it just needs a little more time to build generosity which it most certainly will.Finer acid if that's even possible.

The most mineral-driven of these new releases from Maugeri is the 2023 Etna Bianco Superiore Contrada Praino Frontemare. This is a young winery with enormous promise ahead of it. Grapes for this 3,300-bottle release come from a vineyard site on the east side of the volcano that faces the sea and has steep stone terraces on sandy, mineral-rich soils and yellowish clay. The wine spends eight months on the fine lees (with no malolactic fermentation and no bâtonnage). The result offers salty flavor

Barrel Selection "AP: 15 21. The 2020er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese ** - 24 - was made from 40% botrytized fruit picked at 115° Oechsle and was fermented down to noble-sweet levels of residual sugar (120 g/l). It offers a still rather backward nose made of smoky elements and only faint scents of melon, pineapple, apricot, and herbs.

The 2022er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese initially shows a refined smoky and reductive touch of candied lime, whipped almond cream, smoke, fresh herbs, a touch of cassis, elderberry, bergamot, and lime tree. The wine is superbly and elegantly creamy and juicy with good structure and intensity.

Wow! Initially a little spritz that swirled of quickly, the protective nature of dissolved CO2 goes some way to explaining why this wine looks younger than the “2020 Retour a Terre”. Bottling with a little CO2 is a sign that they see this as a wine for the longer haul. It is obsolete to repeat many of Kelley’s remarks. It’s clear that the fruit is exceptional, the mid-palate weight, always a sign of quality Chardonnay, is impressive, along with the flow, shape and texture. Incred
