"The expressive flavors of ripe cherry, raspberry, pomegranate and rose are offset by thick, dusty tannins and accents of wild herbs and menthol. This red stays vibrant throughout, with a long aftertaste of red fruit and savory notes. Delivers layers, freshness and the potential for aging. Best from 2029 through 2048."

96 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

"The expressive 2021 Brunello di Montalcino opens with an array of crushed violet and lavender tones before giving way to citrus-laced blackberries and cherries. Cool-toned and wickedly fresh, it possesses a solid core of mineral-infused wild berry fruits and blue and purple inner florals that arch throughout. Sweet tannins frame the finish beautifully as hints of balsamic spice and pomegranate linger incredibly long. The 2021 is a radiant beast in need of taming. It's hard to put this glass down."

90-92 Allen Meadows - Burghound

Cool and airy aromas of citrus confit, algae and sea breeze slide gracefully into rich, generous and caressing flavors that possess even better mid-palate density while exhibiting sneaky good length on the very dry though again, not especially austere finale. This is what I would describe as plush but with good punch and a wine that should also repay short to mid-term keeping.

The 2024 Riesling Norheimer Kirschheck Spätlese was made without any botrytis. This tingles and trembles with lemon. The palate brings deeper, more profound ripeness of redcurrant edged with peach. This is so detailed, fine, bright and exquisitely pure. Lightness itself is bottled here. The finish is utterly mouthwatering. (Medium)

"This is showing fantastic aromatic complexity, exuding notes of walnut, quince, dried apricot, white cocoa and pastry. It's creamy, sleek and layered. Very soft and fine bubbles. Long, caressing and fresh finish. Disgorged in 2023. Dosage 4,5g/L. Chardonnay from the Grand Cru villages of Cramant (58%) and Chouilly (27%) with wine from the 1er Cru village of Cuis (15%). Drink or hold."

Entirely Chardonnay and coming from the villages of Cramant, Chouilly, and Cuis, the shimmering yellow-golden 2016 Champagne Special Club Extra Brut is rounded and attractive with aromas of fresh baked croissant, honeyed green apple, and lemon bars. Approachable and medium-bodied, it fills the palate with an elegant mousse, a soft texture of citrus oil, and a clean, chalky finish. It’s already showing balanced layers and classic charm with a promising ability to enjoy over the coming 12 or more years. Disgorged April 2023, it has the addition of 4 grams per liter dosage

The 2021 Blanco is a blend of varieties and places and is the first wine that expresses the special character of the Remelluri property. They used different vinification methods (concrete, foudre, barrique, all with indigenous yeasts), and the backbone here is the origin and not the process. It's not a shy white, showing power (14.14% alcohol) and the freshness of the altitude (605 to 805 meters above sea level) with a low pH (3.24). It comes from vines planted between 1989 and 2012 and is worked organically and biodynamically, with cover crops and horses. It has ripeness, notes of pollen and yellow fruit and a touch of smoke and spice, with a very balanced palate and great purity. It follows the path of elegance and freshness of the 2020, but it was a cooler and healthier vintage (in 2020, they had hail twice), and the wine shows more precision and finishes very clean. Pablo Eguzkiza compared it to 2016. 12,930 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2023.

Such a precise, flinty nose with seashell, oyster, white sesame, chalk and lime. Textured, broad and long, with bright acidity and a precise, extremely long finish. Serious and gastronomic. A blend of 9 grapes. Drink or hold.

Enticing nose of honeycomb, orange blossoms and apricots. What a beautiful balance of richness and freshness this has. The touch of fine tannins very neatly supports the full-bodied palate. Long, silky and structured finish. A cuvee of 40% old-vine clairette, 30% roussanne, 15% bourboulenc and small amounts of other traditional white grapes. 80% was vinified in stainless steel, with the remainder in a mix of new oak and well-used 400-liter oak barrels. Drink or hold.

Inky-garnet to the eye, this wine has a nose of blackberry jam, caramel, and dried mountainside herbs. It is spicy on entry, offering bold clove and licorice top notes joined by black cherry, purple plum and milk chocolate. A web of silky tannins glides across the palate and dissolves into a smooth finish. — Mike DeSimone

Bright aromas of flowers, cedar and currants follow through to a medium to full body. Slight, silky tannins that give the wine beautiful form and length. Better in 2021 when the wine comes together..February/2018

91 Neal Martin - Vinous Media

The 2020 La Doyenné has quite a perfumed, floral bouquet, wilted rose petal infusing the red berry fruit. The palate is very smooth, with candied orange peel infusing the red cherries and strawberry fruit. Not powerful yet it has an appealing seductiveness on the finish. Worth seeking out.

90 James Suckling - Jamessuckling.com

This offers dried cherries, raspberries, dried herbs, licorice and a hint of orange peel. Medium-bodied, juicy and textured, with a core of vivid fruit and fine, dusty tannins. Polished and easy to drink. From organically grown grapes. Sustainable. Drink now.

The 2022 Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard is bright, aromatic and penetrating, with terrific cut that drives right through the mid-palate and finish. Lemon confit, slate, crushed flowers and white pepper all race through the mouth. This taut, expressive Chardonnay has so much to offer. Gavin Chanin certainly got the most out of his fruit from I and L Blocks.

94+ Matthew Luczy - Robert Parkers The Wine Advocate

Always one of the finer renditions of this site, the 2022 Chardonnay Bien Nacido Vineyard leads with a poised, focused nose that highlights this site's signature bouquet of white pepper set against a stony, citrus-curd backdrop. The palate combines floating precision with grounded depth, finishing with an intensely focused mineral spine supported by powerful dexterity. Given this wine's track record, it will reward a year or two in bottle and deliver a beautiful drinking experience over the next decade. Drink: 2024-2032
