Varietal
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!

“The 2023 Riesling Cuvée Ste. Catherine Schlossberg Grand Cru still has a flinty crackle of reduction that lays itself on fine pear and citrus notions. The palate is juicy, light, bright, stony and beautifully svelte with a lovely, zesty tension. Crystalline clarity defines the 2023. (Bone-dry)”Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous 96 Points SP 99
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
The 2021 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet and perhaps is the most complete of the Grand Crus from the Domaine. The palate is well balanced with a touch more substance than Les Clos, fine acidity, quite taut and harmonious with good grip and energy on the finish. I can see this ageing nicely in bottle.Neal Martin, Vinous 92-94 Points AM 92
Chardonnay from Meursault, Côte du Beaune
A more floral-suffused nose features very bright and fresh aromas of Granny Smith apples, essence of pear and a variety of citrus influences. There is again excellent volume and richness along with even more apparent minerality on the complex and beautifully persistent finale that flashes focused power. This too offers first-rate quality for a villages-level wine. Outstanding Top value ♥ 2027+Allen Meadows, Burghound 92 Points
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
The 2023 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur is lovely, unfurling in the glass with notes of green orchard fruit, citrus zest, wet stones and oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy, it's deep and saline, with as usual a quintessentially Chablisien profile.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 94 PointsHere the wood treatment is again quite subtle though not imperceptible on the cool aromas of sea breeze, citrus, wet stone and quinine. As one would expect, there is notably more size, w
Chardonnay from Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte du Beaune
“The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Virondot 1er Cru is a worthy follow-up to the impressive 2022. Very complex and harmonious on the nose, it just could not be from anywhere but Chassagne, combining very subtle yellow fruit notes with stirring mineralité. The palate is beautifully balanced with a fine bead of acidity. It's quite energetic at the moment, which will hopefully be captured in the bottle. There's a very sustained spicy aftertaste that completes a great Chassagne.”Neal Martin, V
Chardonnay from Meursault, Côte du Beaune
Moderate sulfur pushes the aromas of hazelnut and acacia blossom to the background at present. The rich, caressing and punchy flavors possess an appealing energy and brightness on the palate while exhibiting sneaky good length on the focused and linear finale where once again there is a trace of warmth. ♥ OutstandingAllen Meadows, Burghound
Bürklin's 2021 Ungeheuer G.C. is clear, deep and intense as well as flinty on the saline and lemony nose that combines richness and intensity with precision and freshness. Pure, saline and very fresh on the palate, this is a full-bodied, dense and savory, enormously tight and even finely tannic Ungeheuer with fine grip and a saline finish with ripe, concentrated fruit. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in November 2022. Drink 2028-2052Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advo
Chardonnay from Saint-Aubin, Côte du Beaune
Lamy has 2.4-hectares in the 1er Cru Les Frionnes, with vines planted in 1935, 1960 and 1985. It’s a southeast-facing site with old, decomposed limestone/clay soils and a plethora of small rocks in the topsoil. The vines are adjacent to the Derrière chez Edouard, but this is a slightly warmer site and is therefore picked earlier. Frionnes gives both pulpy fruit and vibrant, saline freshness along with a compact, rocky close.“Habitually one of the domaine's more mineral wines, the
Chardonnay from Saint-Aubin, Côte du Beaune
Lamy’s tiny Clos du Meix parcel is just 0.7 hectares, situated at the western fringe of the village. Planted between 1985 and 1995, the sheltered location (just below Les Castets on a south-facing slope), its heavier clays, and the fact that it is fully enclosed by a wall (and therefore protected from the cold, northern winds), always gives this wine excellent texture to go with its intense minerality. Contributing to this mineral character is the bony soil in this vineyard, which has just
Chardonnay from Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte du Beaune
A suggestion of herbal tea lurks in the background of the fresh and bright aromas of citrus zest, acacia blossom and passion fruit. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the slightly less concentrated but seductively textured flavors that conclude in a balanced and lingering finish. This could use better depth so at least a few years of keeping are in order. Drink: 2028+Allen Meadows, Burghound 91 Points ♥ OutstandingThe 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Vergers 1er Cru has to
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
Great intensity and transparency! “The 2021er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese is really restrained and almost non-saying at this early stage, but already hints at the complexity to come as it reveals after a few minutes very delicate notes of whipped almond cream, lily flowers, vineyard peach, minty herbs, smoke, candied grapefruit, and quite some fine spices. The wine proves creamy yet intense and dynamic on the palate. It proves very focused and already hugely long. This will need quit
