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!

Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The Marienburg GG Fahrlay 2023, as it is referred to on the central part of the label, was fermented spontaneously in traditional oak casks from fruit harvested in a blue slate part of the Marienburg vineyard. Still slightly reductive at first, it quickly shows a refreshing and pure nose of citrusy fruits, minty herbs, aniseed, almond, vineyard peach, and jasmine. The wine is pure and vibrating, as energetic and taut notes of citrusy fruits run through the palate. The finish is beautifully fr
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The 2022er Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese offers a superbly attractive and aromatic nose of pineapple, coconut, melon, yellow flowers, a hint of marzipan, herbs, and juniper, all wrapped in a blanket of smoke. The wine proves superbly creamy and delicately smooth as plenty of finely honeyed and ripe yellow fruits and almond cream join the party. The finish has great presence and intensity in the very long and captivating finish. The aftertaste is engaging and long. 2030-2047Jean Fisc
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
With the 2023 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos Hommage à Louis, the Droins have regained the right to designate Les Clos on the label from the INAO, but they're also continuing with the Hommage à Louis moniker. Whatever its name, the wine is lovely, opening in the glass with notes of green apple, peach and lemon mingled with iodine and toasted nuts, followed by a full-bodied, layered and concentrated palate that's deep, dense and muscular.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 95 PointsSmoke
Chenin Blanc from South Africa
“The 2023 Mev. Kirsten is perhaps the most closed of the three Chenins, unfolding with time to reveal scents of yellow fruit, oyster shell and a touch of lanolin. The palate has superb weight and density—the most fruit-driven Chenin, with an irresistible, slightly viscous texture counterbalanced by a keen thread of acidity. It’s even a little petrolly on the finish. Fabulous from beginning to end.”Neal Martin, Vinous 96 Points
Chardonnay from Chassagne-Montrachet, Côte du Beaune
A blend of all Pierre-Yves's premiers crus, the 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru is chiseled and concentrated, revealing aromas of pear, freshly baked bread, buttery pastry, mint and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with a long, chalky finish, it will really benefit from further élevage.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 91-93 PointsHere too there is enough wood to mention framing a cool mix of both white and yellow orchard fruit, especially peach, along wi
Sauvignon Blanc from Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire
“I’m a bit of a fan of the Buisson Renard. At the bottom of the hill below the winery in the village of Saint-Andelain, there's a greater proportion of clay to flint, giving a broadness to the wine's shape that envelops the whole mouth. In 2022, you can smell the warmth of the vintage and experience its richness and yet its sense of lightness. There's an appealing chew to the wine, and on the finish, a salty residue that makes you want to continue drinking. It retains acidity, line and lengt
Sauvignon Blanc from 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
Sauvignon Blanc from Pouilly-Fumé, Centre Loire
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. We were looking to benchmark for the Dry White No.1, a Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc blend. It was included in a bracket with some exceptional white Bordeaux. Prior Didier's wine I had not been impressed by the Pouilly-Fumé I had tasted, most of it green, weedy, cats piss. Silex was a breath of fresh air.Jefford's commentary sums it up beautifully. “His wines smel
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The Wehlener Auslese had everything. The 2022er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese has a beautifully engaging and captivating nose of fresh herbs, white mint, bergamot, yellow flowers, pineapple, candied grapefruit, smoke, and juniper. The wine has great presence and is still on the sweeter side on the palate, where ripe yellow and slightly honeyed fruits with a touch of exotic presence come through. The finish is slightly broader yet captivating and hugely long. The aftertaste shows candied gr
Riesling from Saar, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The Godfather of the Saar makes truly special wine deserving of the title. AP: 03 22. The 2021er Scharzhofberger Riesling Kabinett is a barely fruity-styled wine with a bright white-yellow color and a stunningly pure nose of white peach, citrusy fruits, white flowers, smoke, and a subtle dash of whipped cream.The wine proves stunningly vibrant on the almost off-dry tasting palate and leaves great notes of fresh herbs and spices in the long finish. The aftertaste is to die for as it proves a
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The Marienburg Raffes 2023, as it is referred to on the central part of the label, was fermented down to officially dry levels of residual sugar and was bottled in August 2024. It initially shows a very noble and refined reduction of smoke and wild herbs, before opening up to offer tar, blackberry, licorice, minty herbs, and spices. The wine is intense and quite focused on the layered and straight palate. The finish proves slightly lighter and juicier, and also displays slightly more tannins
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
The Marienburg Felsterrasse 2023, as it is referred to on the central part of the label, was fermented down to officially dry levels of residual sugar and was bottled in August 2024. It offers a hugely complex and impressively layered nose of smoke, grapefruit, lime zest, fine spices, minty herbs (rosemary, thyme), freshly cut herbs, iodine, and violet. The wine is even more impressive on the palate, where it has great density and energy. It proves finely juicy yet straight and focused. The fini
