The sensational NV Rivesaltes Ambre Horg D'Age 18 Ans checks in as 90% Grenache Blanc and 10% Grenache Gris that spent 18 years in barrels. It got a big “Wow” in my notes and offers layers of caramel, toasted nuts, spice and figs, with gorgeous complexity, full-bodied richness and impeccable balance between its acidity, sweetness and alcohol. This is stunning stuff!

The 2024 Pinot Noir Willamette Valley is soft-textured, elegant and quite floral in character. Delicate nuances of rosewater, tart red cherry, cedar and lavender blossom slowly, remaining quite understated through and through.

"The NV Brut Grand Rose is an absolutely delicious wine, particularly at the NV level. This is a serious rose, which is immediately evident in the wine’s dark hue and dense, full-bodied personality. Their wine possesses layers of candied Pinot fruit, all woven together in a rich, sensual style. This sweeping, large-scaled rose will offer its finest drinking at the dinner table. This is Lot 235066, disgorged November 6, 2007. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011. This is a superb set of releases from Bara, arguably the most renowned grower in the village of Bouzy, where Pinot Noir reigns supreme."

The 2018 Houyi Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is yet another absolute knockout from Bevan. This instantly grabs your attention with its insanely dark, inky color and striking aromatics, which are loaded with incredibally pure, ripe black cherries, boysenberries and black currants along with lead pencil, fresh dark florals, Asian spices, dark chocolate shavings and mountain sage nuances that fill the glass. This is just as sensational on the palate, with a gorgeous full body that is layered and beautifully polished. It goes on to deliver a luxurious mouthful of delicious ripe dark fruits, exotic spices, graphite and hints of dark cocoa powder which resonate all the way though the ultra-long, finish that is utterly seamless. This delivers on every level, and while it is absolutely captivating at this young age, it also has the structure to indicate a tremendous future ahead. This is a seriously impressive wine that should not be missed.

Coming from this famed rocky, red-soiled vineyard up on Pritchard Hill, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Houyi Vineyard was aged for 19 months in French oak barrels, 100% new. Deep garnet-purple colored, it comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant scents of fresh blueberries, black raspberries and warm black cherries followed by hints of cassis, wild sage and underbrush. Full-bodied, it has a firm, grainy texture supporting the muscular black fruit flavors with lots of red fruit sparks and mineral accents coming through on the persistent finish. 213 cases were made.

"Refined, with bright flavors of dried berry, plum compote and cherry tart that are long and lush. Very creamy on the finish, which features chocolate mousse. Drink now." —K.M.

A bouquet of place with a pure fruit and gentle savoury seam, plenty of saline moments and scents of white fleshed fruits and sweet citrus. As the wine opens up in glass there’s an emerging complexity highlighting a mineral stone quality. Fruity, fresh, varietal and delicious on the palate with flavours that reflect the bouet and textures from acidity and soil. Great drinking from late 2023 through 2027.

Tropical aromas of grilled pineapple, passion fruit, flint and white rose petals. The palate is light-bodied with a creamy texture, giving notes of lemon curd, candied lime zest and gooseberries. Nicely balanced and polished.

93 Decanter

Complex nose of black fruits, minerals, coffee and spice. The palate is potent and full-bodied, with salted liquorice, bold black fruit and lingering acidity.
