95 points Jasper Morris"Pale lemon yellow. The bouquet is noticeably more developed than Fourchaumes in an engaging soft woolly style of white fruit. There is a noticeably greater intensity of fruit here, along with a more defined acidity and, I suspect,...

96 points Decanter"Made from 70-year-old vines, a small part of the blend was matured in old casks, the rest in vats. This is powerful, complex, but also refined and understated. Crisp, vibrant acidity, subtle wood notes and a long, lingering, mineral...

93 points Wine Enthusiast"A shy nose on this wine reveals little fruit, but more air allows lemon-edged Mirabelle to show through. The palate delivers lemony brightness, supported by the slightest carbon-dioxide spritz. Juicy, ripe Mirabelle plum awaits...

98 points James Suckling"A giant dry riesling that is so cool, focused and precise, it comes across as only medium-bodied in spite of the enormous concentration of citrus fruit, spice and wet stone minerality. Very pristine finish with a wonderful...

92 points Jasper Morris 91 points Wine Spectator"Rich, round and stitched together with ripe cherry and raspberry fruit, this fluid red also delivers leafy vegetal and spice notes, with hints of earth and oak spice. Lingers nicely on the finish. Best...

91 points Jasper Morris Jancis Robinson"Cask sample. Pale garnet. Slightly smudgy nose. Still quite chewy with fine tannins and marked but not excessive acidity. Needs time but should be a vigorous pleasurable drink eventually. 17/20 points...

92 points Jeb Dunnuck"A pale straw-silver hue, the newest release of the NV Champagne Intuition Brut is based on the 2020 vintage, with approximately half Chardonnay and the rest Pinot Noir and Meunier, and was disgorged in April of 2023. It opens with...

93 points Wine Advocate"Half Grenache, with ... Carignan & Mourvèdre, the 2019 Cairanne is dark & impenetrable in the glass, giving up just brooding aromas of blackberries & dark-skinned plums." Vinous Reverie...

93 points Jeb Dunnuck"The Maret family is known for the top Châteauneuf du Pape, but they also make some brilliant Vacqueyras. Their 2020 Vacqueyras is a 60/40 split of Grenache and Syrah, and it has lots of darker fruits and peppery herb aromatics...

94 points Wine Spectator"Big in stature and scale, with creamy pear and pureed melon backed by stylish oak, flinty minerality and a saline beam of acidity. Decadent and rich, with the energy to keep perfect pace. Reveals dried thyme and heather details...

90 points James Suckling"A crisp and elegant wine for this appellation, with crisp pear fruit and a very satisfying balance of discreet creaminess and herbal freshness on the medium-bodied palate. Polished finish that's lively. This is a complex cuvee of...

92 points James Suckling"This Champagne rosé shows some good complexity on the nose with bread crust and brioche to match some dried cranberries and raspberries. Direct acidity frames the fine layering of bubbles." 91 points Wine Spectator"Ripe...
