Varietal

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!

Ansitz Waldgries Südtiroler Weissburgunder Riserva ‘ITOS’ 2020

Weissburgunder | Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy

What he achieves by a combo of half vinified in stainless steel and half the ferments in barrel, is the ideal melding of the racy with the complex and textured.A pretty flash Weissburgunder AKA Pinot Bianco! Excellent drinking. A layer of that shroomy, wet wool earthy funk I often see, and enjoy in high acid whites. White flowers perfume. Ripe white grapefruit. Counterpointed with a little stonefruit, fresh and zippy. Chalky acid with a dusting of phenolics adds cleansing grip. Superb long

Where the Bourgogne is immediately approachable the village Chassagne Blanc needs a little more time. 1/3 from Les Masures next to Morgeot 2/3 Puligny side of Chassagne. Again this shows a wonderful progression through the quality standards in Burgundy. Jumping a rung in the ladder, the energy and precision is showing here. Whilst a full percentage lower in alcohol than the Bourgogne, it has greater depth and length. Current tightly wound, beautiful linear acid is supported nicely by a little te

Domaine Bernard Moreau Grand Cru ‘Corton-Charlemagne’ 2023

Chardonnay | Côte du Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet

The 2023 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru exhibits aromas of pear, white flowers, freshly baked bread and sweet new oak. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's from a parcel in Ladoix that Moreau harvests with his team.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 92-94 PointsHere the nose is cooler still with airy and elegant aromas that include those of Granny Smith apple, white flower, mineral reduction and a hint of just sliced fennel.

With its decidedly green and spicy bouquet, the 2022 Pecorino is impossible to ignore. Lime zest and tropical melon give way to crushed Granny Smith apples and chamomile aromas. This is beautifully balanced, fruit-centric and intense. Silken waves of citrus-infused orchard fruits cascade beneath an air of sweet inner florals. The 2022 leaves the palate completely refreshed, tapering off long and youthfully tense, with a hint of salinity that adds lovely punctuation. Fantastic. Drink 2024-202

Emidio Pepe Trebbiano d’Abruzzo 2021

Trebbiano | Italy, Abruzzo

Wonderfully floral and complex, the 2021 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo continues to improve in bottle with a perfumed bouquet that mixes apricot with crushed almond, yellow flowers and white smoke. This soothes the palate with its enveloping textures as a tinge of candied citrus enlivens ripe green apple and melon tones. It leaves the palate completely refreshed with a spike of acidity and mineral concentration, adding a crisp feel. Although enjoyable today, the 2021 is positioned for greatness over time

The Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune red and white come from the domaine’s young agroforestry project in Nantoux. Perched at 400 metres above Pommard, Nantoux is a strikingly pretty village known for its pink limestone quarries and hiking trails between vineyards, woods and meadows. The Dancers have planted two hectares of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and interspersed all kinds of local trees on a limestone plateau. Although not the sole reason for investing in the area, it was hoped these vin

This is when knowing the fruit sources of a Bourgogne is important. Dancer's Bourgogne comes straight from two of the big guns!Sourced from two different vineyards, one in Meursault (planted in 2001) and one in Puligny-Montrachet (planted in 1990), the 2018 blend is roughly 70% Puligny and 30% Meursault. Vinified in both tank and old oak, this is villages-level quality—a wine of remarkable gravitas and complexity for its status.“Aromas of white flowers, pear, crisp green apple and

A unique Soave, this wine along with Il Corincino's Verdicchio 'Gaiospino' was one of the first two wines that sparked my interest in Italian wine. It's a rich, textural interpretation of Soave, with great harmony, hints of spice, lovely phenolics (giving texture) and length. The age of the vineyards is reflected in the depth of fruit. FYI - Vecchie Vigne means 'Old Vines' and these are pre-phylloxera from a sandy sub-plot of the La Foscà vineyard."The 2016 Soave Classico Contrada Salv

A unique Soave, this wine along with Il Corincino's Verdicchio 'Gaiospino' was one of the first two wines that sparked my interest in Italian wine. Looking very good. Energetic yet beautifully developed. Layered complex, lovely textural, bit of barrel & lees time. Full luscious. Baking spice. Brooding at the moment.

Domaine Thibert Mâcon-Prissé ‘en Chailloux’ 2020

“The slightly denser aromas transmit a vague hint of the exotic in the form of melon and pineapple hints on the mostly white fleshed fruit aromas. There is excellent intensity and precision to the solidly concentrated middle weight flavors that exude a refreshing salinity on the equally dry and sneaky long and overtly bitter lemon-inflected finish. This too offers very good quality for its level.”Allen Meadows, Burghound 88 Points“The 2020 Mâcon-Prissé En Chailloux unfurls i

Showing exactly how important vine age is! A step up, an extra zip of salty acid and that mid palate weight with excellent length. Florals, white stone fruit a little citrus pith and plenty of fun. That slight primary edge that disappeared as it opened revealing excellent depth and length with restraint. A little more complexity. Mid palate texture is excellent. Hazelnuts and an extra layer of pleasure here. Excellent.

On the palate, the wine is lush yet filigreed and finessed and provided with delicate, lingering salinity and finely concentrated, perfectly ripe fruit.
