Clemens Busch Riesling Marienburg ‘Raffes’ 2017

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

The 2017 Pündericher Marienburg Riesling Raffes is the essence of gray slate. Bright in color and flavors but also intense and intermixed with lemon-fresh stony notes, this is a concentrated yet pure, fresh and finessed, highly intense and refined Riesling with great length and an endless finish. This is a powerful but Auslese-styled Riesling with concentration, finesse and lots of power but no alcoholic impression. The wine was bottled with 13% alcohol and almost nine grams of residual sugar.

Domaine Ghislaine Barthod Bourgogne 'Les Bons Bâtons' 2020
Ripe aromas include those of red and dark raspberry that are trimmed in discreet earth nuances. The racy, intense and well-detailed middle weight flavors conclude in an unusually robust, powerful and firm finale. This concentrated and excellent effort is definitely not a 'pop and pour' Bourgogne. ♥ Outstanding Top valueAllen Meadows, Burghound 87-89 PointsAs always, the fruit comes from a 1.5-hectare parcel of 50-plus-year-old vines in the renowned Les Bon Bâtons vineyard (on the

Domaine de l’Arlot Grand Cru Romanée-Saint-Vivant 2023

Pinot Noir | Vosne-Romanée, Burgundy

“The 2023 Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru has a gorgeous bouquet that blossoms in the glass. Dark cherries, touches of violet and iodine just soar with aeration—wonderfully delineated. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins and a killer line of acidity, very harmonious through the linear and poised finish. This is quite understated for an RSV. Lovely.”Neal Martin, Vinous 94-96 Points
