There’s a menthol cast to the cherry and raspberry fruit in this red, all backed by a line of stiff, compact tannins. Nonetheless, the finish on this is extremely long, with the fruit and savory essence persisting alongside a mineral hint. Best from 2029 through 2046. 1,250 cases made, 333 cases imported.

"The 2018 Etna Rosso Contrada Crasà pulls me close with depths of ashen stone, crushed black cherries and dried roses. This is silky and pliant in feel, with mineral-tinged red berries and zesty acidity that build a reverberation of tension with each sip. It leaves a coating of grippy tannins through the finale, while maintaining admirable freshness. As pretty as the Crasà Contrada is today, the best is surely yet to come."

Polished and detailed, with multilayered raspberry and cherry flavors that take on toasty spice, garrigue and savory pepper tones as this builds richness toward supple tannins. Drink now through 2035.

Always a pure, classic, impeccably made wine, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception and offers textbook aromatics of cassis and assorted dark fruits as well as subtle chocolate, cedary herbs, and tobacco leaf. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, wonderfully balanced, and with a great finish, it’s well worth your time and money. It will have 10-15 years of prime drinking.

The 2022 Pinot Noir (Santa Lucia Highlands) is textbook SLH—everything you want from an easygoing, early-drinking red. Sweet raspberry, lavender and sour cherry open in the glass, giving way to a generous mouthfeel that coats every corner of the palate in juicy red fruit. Considering the growing season, a touch of heat on the finish is eminently forgivable. Drink this charming Pinot over the next few years. The quality-to-price ratio is undeniable.

"Offering gorgeous fruit purity and perfumed, the wine shows dark plum, blueberry, violet, olive and cedar characters on the nose. The palate is equally attractive with excellent weight and concentration, leading to a wonderfully long flavoursome finish. At its best: now to 2031."

"If you’re looking for a leaner, lighter Napa white, this is a good choice. A light body, rather low alcohol and lots of bright, appetizing herb and citrus flavors distinguish this wine. So refreshing and savory with sweet peas, parsley and shallots. Drink now."

"The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Aveta is a wild, exuberant wine. Pear, lemon oil, white pepper and sweet perfumed notes are front and center. There's lovely textural depth, along with strong tropical inflections that add an exotic flair."

94 Joaquín Hidalgo - Vinous Media

"The 2021 Selección Especial, the classic house blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo from Rioja Alta, reflects the finesse of the vintage. Aromas of plum, blackberry and a touch of raspberry are lifted by delicate balsamic hints. On the palate, it is dry and moderately compact, with chalky grip and long, savory flavor. Delicacy, energy and juiciness are kept in balanced interplay by the vintage."

The Churchill flagship quinta has produced a serious style of Port. Dry and richly structured, it also has jammy red-berry fruits that will cushion the firmness. Drink the wine from 2029.

Very polished, with a red fruit profile of cassis, kirsch and cherry compote notes, all wrapped in fruitcake, red licorice and sweet spice. Keeps its polish through the finish. Best from 2037 through 2055. 282 cases made.

Silvery straw color. Aromas and flavors of tapioca, peach jam, cashew brittle, and papaya and paw paw with a round, bright, fruity medium-to-full body and a sleek, medium-long finish manifesting notes of apple custard tart, candied yams, pepper, and blue raspberry finish. A juicy, fruity, easy-drinking junmai with pleasing warmth.

Distinctive cool-climate aromas of charcuterie, dried kelp, peppercorn and clove. The aromas are thoroughly convincing, strongly reminiscent of, say, a good Crozes-Hermitage. Plenty of floral lift and buoyancy. The tannins are a tad drying, yet there is a sinuous elegance to this finer-boned shiraz that deserves attention. Drink now. Screw cap.
