2023 Kruger Rumpf Abtei '1937' Riesling Erstes Gewachs Trocken
97 James Suckling - Jamessuckling.com
Welcome to the far north of Riesling, which theoretically doesn™t exist any more thanks to climate change, but here it is in a glass. Super crystalline and pure on the medium-bodied palate. Mouthwatering finish that is also beautifully balanced. What energy. From organically grown grapes from vines planted in 1937. Drink or hold

2021 Chateau Haut Brion Blanc Blend from France
#147366 750 mL
2021 Chateau Haut Brion Blanc
100 Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider
Compelling from start to finish, this is a show-stopping wine. Aromatically, the perfume hooks you with its white flowers, crushed stones, white peaches, grapefruit pith, and green apples. The palate is equal to the nose with its display of ripe, perfectly ripe, and almost ripe citrus, pears, apples, and white peaches with a spicy edge. The racy acidity keeps the wine going long after you think the finish is over. Drink from 2027-2055.
99 Markus Del Monego MW - Tasting Book
Bright yellow colour with green hue. Multi-layered nose with aroma reminiscent of peaches, tangerine zest, hints of granadilla, elegant aromatic herbs, elegant toasting, cold smoke, graphite. On the palate excellent depth and mouthfeel, rather rich with wonderful acidity and excellent length, fine citrus fruit, peaches and hints of tropical fruit. Creamy texture. A truly great White.
98 Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux
White wine of the vintage, huge depth, makes you want to stop and tell your friends. Citrus, slate, nuanced green apple, white pear, citrus, sage and gunsmoke, all beautifully drawn out through the palate, gorgeous depths from first to last moment, an impressive white that rises vertically. Harvest September 3 to 13. 44% new oak, with lees stirring once a week. 30hl/h yield because some vines impacted by frost. Jean-Philippe Delmas estate director.
98 James Suckling - Jamessuckling.com
This is racy and aromatic, with blossom honey, lemons, limes and crushed stone. Some Thai basil, too. It’s medium- to full-bodied with fresh acidity and plenty of energy. Solid and polished in the Haut-Brion way. Better to leave this for three or four years.

2018 Mauro Veglio Barolo Arborina
92 Susan Hulme - The Wine Independent
Medium-deep, faded ruby in color, the 2018 Mauro Veglio Barolo Arborina has a soft and gently fragrant nose, a little 'sotto voce' or understated, but with pretty tea leaf and floral notes. It has quite firmly structured but nicely managed tannins at the same time. There is a really attractive savory, lingering finish to this wine with sweeping acidity. It is a more classic, traditional style, harmonious and very appealing. Maybe wait one to two years and keep up to 20 years.

"Enticing aromas of meat and mushroom pie mingle with rich plum and spices. Full-bodied, with silky, caressing tannins and intense fruit and mineral flavors. Well-crafted, finishing long. The flagship Brunello in 2003. The wine of the vintage. Best after 2010. 2,800 cases made."

2020 Chateau Leoville Las Cases Blend from France

2020 Chateau Leoville Las Cases
99 Lisa Perrotti-Brown - The Wine Independent
Made from 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Merlot, the 2020 Leoville Las Cases is deep garnet-purple in color. After a swirl or two, it erupts from the glass with explosive scents of blackcurrant cordial, stewed blackberries, juicy blackberries, and violets, leading to suggestions of licorice, cinnamon toast, and fertile loam with a touch of truffles. The medium-bodied palate is tightly wound with loads of nuanced black fruit, earthy, and floral layers, supported by very fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and multi-layered.
98+ Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The 2020 Léoville Las Cases has developed into a powerhouse. Then again, that is Las Cases. En primeur, I thought the 2020 was a bit shy, but its true personality has to emerge. Blackberry jam, gravel, spice, menthol, licorice, espresso and plum all saturate the palate. Vivid and explosive, the 2020 is dizzyingly rich, with plenty of Las Cases tannins that will require patience. I am not sure when the 2020 will be ready to drink, but it won't be anytime soon. Las Cases is one of the wines of the vintage in 2020, that much is pretty clear.
98 Jeb Dunnuck - jebdunnuck.com
Another 2020 that's going to demand patience, the 2020 Château Léoville Las Cases is a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated blend that includes 11% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot that was raised in 80% new French oak. It's a regal, medium to full-bodied, concentrated, flawlessly balanced 2020 with a pure core of cassis and darker currant fruits, a layered, seamless mouthfeel that carries substantial tannins, perfectly integrated oak, and subtle floral, mineral, and leafy herb nuances. Playing in the concentrated yet focused and structured style of the vintage, it's going to need a decade to hit the early phases of its prime drinking window and will have 50-75 years of longevity.
A linear and very racy wine with super fine tannins that run the length of the wine. Superb. It’s full-bodied yet really focused and polished with a length and intensity. Lots of currants and graphite. Very classy and fine. The new 1996. Give it six to seven years to come around.
98 Peter Moser - Falstaff
Dark ruby ​​garnet, purple reflections, firm core, delicate rim brightening. Fine noble wood nuances, dark berry fruit, ripe cherries, delicate hints of plums and candied orange zest, multi-faceted bouquet. Juicy, elegant, finesse-rich structure, ripe cherries, some liquorice, perfectly ripe tannins, mineral and long lasting, certain aging potential, a wonderfully balanced wine that will be very seductive even young. (2028-2065).
97+ William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2020 Léoville Las Cases is a classic in the making, unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries, cassis, loamy soil, violets and dark chocolate framed by a discreet touch of new oak. Full-bodied, broad and layered, it's rich and concentrated, with a deep core of fruit framed by sweet, powdery tannins and lively acids. Concluding with a long, resonant finish, it's built for the cellar.
97 Wine Enthusiast
The wine's richness comes both from the dark tannins and the pure, classic black currant flavors. Acidity, yes, but surrounded by dense fruits and tannins that give the wine considerable structure and the potential to age for many years. An impressive wine.

2022 Dominique Lafon Volnay
90-92 Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The 2022 Volnay Village was almost completely de-stemmed and comes from the young vines in Santenots. It has a perfumed nose of black plum, raspberry fruit, and a touch of dried iris flower. This Volnay has crunchy tannins and pure black fruit with a slightly chalky textured finish. Lots of depth, considering this is a Village Cru, perhaps betraying its Santenot origins.
89-91 Jasper Morris, MW - Inside Burgundy
14 barrels made from 0.75ha, a comfortable return. Fifty percent whole bunch. Concentrated purple colour. A bucketload of dark raspberry fruit, but not too obviously stem infused. Excellent intensity, quite dark raspberry in style, good acidity, and fair length. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted: October 2023.

Eyrie Vineyards Rose 'Spark' Sparkling
90 Erin Brooks - Robert Parker's the Wine Advocate
The NV Spark comes from 29-year-old vines planted in Jory soil. It is a blend of 48% Pinot Noir, 31% Chasselas, 9% Chardonnay, 6% Pinot Meunier and 6% Pinot Blanc, aged 11 months on the lees and bottled without dosage. It has a deep cherry-pink color and scents of green melon, peaches, tarragon and citrus peel, and the light-bodied palate is energetic and fruity with a refreshing finish.

#140974 750 mL
2018 Roquette & Cazes Xisto Douro Red
97 Mark Squires - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2018 Xisto, released only in certain years, is a blend of 40% old vines (70 years), 30% Touriga Nacional and 30% Touriga Franca from vines planted in 1987, all aged for 20 months in 85% new French barriques. It comes in at 14.5% alcohol. As gorgeous as the regular Tinto is, this is a step up, or two. It is a bit oakier but also more polished and better structured. It's easily as delicious, although the oak covers up some of that these days. This is approachable now because the tannins are very ripe, but it will be even better in a couple of years. That will allow some chance to pull in more wood. It does tighten a bit with air, so aging it can't hurt. It should age well. It has some things to prove in the cellar, but I'm leaning up today. There were 7,000 bottles produced.

97 Wine Spectator
"Incredible nose of crushed berry, licorice, violets and lightly toasted oak. Pure creme de cassis. Full-bodied, with big, velvety tannins and a long, long finish. Solid. Best after 2011. 10,000 cases made."
This is more exotic and monstrous than the 2000. It is like a muscle builder, with lots of round and rich tannins and a core of dark fruits like black cherries and blueberries. Still very young, but structured and in need of five more years. Don’t touch this until 2015.
96 Robert Parker - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
An incredibly fresh, lively 2003 (the pH is only 3.6 and the alcohol is 13.1%), this wine offers a dense ruby/purple color along with full body and a remarkable nose of black currants, kirsch, lead pencil shavings and vanilla. Opulent, full-bodied and close to full maturity, it is a seamless classic that will age for 15-20 more years. Kudos to the Delon family for such a brilliant achievement in a tricky vintage.
96 Clive Pursehouse - Decanter Magazine
This vintage shows great precision at four years of age, though still very young and precocious. Deep mineral tones leap from the glass, the crushed slate, smoke and bright blue fruits accented by a savoury note of garrigue and lavender. Lovely elegance on the palate as black and red berry fruits are met with an earth-driven minerality. Umami notes of dried morel mushrooms, a touch of soy and chicory lead to wisps of pencil lead. While a joy to taste so young, this wine has a long life ahead.

2010 Chateau Lynch Bages Pauillac Blend from France
#134261 750 mL
2010 Chateau Lynch Bages Pauillac
A wine with great beauty and finesse. Such elegance and ethereal quality for this estate. Full body, with ultra-fine tannins and a juicy delicious finish. Long and beautiful. This is the best Lynch in a long, long time. I love the precision here
The 2010 Château Lynch-Bages is straight-up brilliant and shows the quality of this incredible château – as well as the vintage – beautifully. Still deep purple-hued, with a stunningly pure and classic Pauillac nose of cassis, darker currants, smoke tobacco, and lead pencil, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, multi-dimensional mouthfeel, polished yet substantial tannins, and an awesome finish. This beauty is up with the finest vintages from this château and has another 30-40 years of prime drinking.
97 William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Still a saturated ruby-black in hue, the 2010 Lynch-Bages offers up aromas of rich cassis fruit mingled with hints of pencil shavings, loamy soil and cigar wrapper. Full-bodied, deep and muscular, it's rich and layered, with a concentrated core of fruit that's framed by firm, powdery tannins and lively acids. The most brooding, backward Lynch-Bages of the decade and one of the real successes of the vintage, this is a vibrant, tightly wound wine that is still an infant at age 10. Readers with bottles in their cellars might try one now out of curiosity, but this 2010 won't begin to hit its stride until age 20.
97 Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux
This is tannic architecture fully realised in a glass, one to taste to understand just how muscular Pauillac can become. Even at 15 years old it is still closed and a little austere, even a little raw, but with zero doubt that it will smooth out. Punchy, liquorice root, black fruits, bilberry, crayon, crushed rocks, smoked earth, pomegranate, gunsmoke, curling violets as it opens.
97 Panos Kakaviatos - Decanter Magazine
Similarly Cabernet Sauvignon-driven, like Grand-Puy-Lacoste, but with more depth and power. Exudes dark, ripe blackberry and cassis with distinct iodine freshness. While the 70% new oak is fully integrated, it will be even better in 10 years (the 2000 vintage is perfect today). The length is amazing. A regal wine requiring a regal dish. Try with beef Wellington.
