93 points Wine Advocate"The 2020 Prelude Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon is juicy and bright on the nose. Despite its glossy exterior, the wine maintains a freshly turned earth/bramble vibe on the nose, which directly places it as varietally true. A honing...

K Vintners, The Deal Sundance Vineyard Syrah Wahluke Slope 202095 points Jeb Dunnuck"As with almost all of the Syrahs here, the 2020 Syrah The Deal was not destemmed, saw an extended maceration, and spent 18 months in 40% new French puncheons. Deep...

91 points Vinous"The 2021 Brut Metodo Classico, a varietal Nerello Mascalese, opens with a spicy blend of ground ginger and lime zest, accentuated by crushed stones. This is chiseled and firm on the palate, with a burst of zesty, saline-tinged bubbles...

100 points Wine & Spirits"If a wine could ever make you want to pull the top down on your '68 Ferrari convertible, rip off the rearview mirror and take off, this is it. It has a different kind of energy than the '02 Cristal Rosé, which is more...

97 points Jeb Dunnuck"Even better, the 2016 Condrieu Les Chaillees de l'Enfer is vinified and aged in 25% new French oak (it’s made in the same fashion as the Coteau de Vernon). It would probably be the wine of the vintage if it wasn’t for...

95 points James Suckling"So elegant and refined in spite of the generous peach fruit, this has a freshness like the first days of spring as the first green grass and flowers appear. What a precise balance of racy acidity and floral delicacy this has on...

Jancis Robinson"Very old vines – 100 years – 50/50 Maria Gomes and Bical, fermented in a single old 2,500 litre oak cask, aged 6-8 months in oak and unfined and unfiltered.From magnum. Good year for reds and whites, apparently. More structure...

91 points Wine Spectator"Dry, elegant and light-bodied, with hints of date, toasted hazelnut, singed parchment paper and Earl Grey tea. Delivers a high-toned, persistent finish." Jancis Robinson"Quite thick and glutinous. Honeyed notes – though it...

97 points Wine Spectator"Leafy underbrush, earth and dusty mineral notes frame the core of cherry and raspberry flavors in this succulent red, which is supple, with a layer of chewy, chalky tannins coating the finish. Balanced overall, with a long,...

96 points James Suckling"Harmonious, well-structure and layered. The nose shows aromas of wild strawberries, sour cherries, dried herbs, crushed stones and flowers. It’s medium- to full-bodied with finely grained tannins, yet it is still firm at...

92 points John Gilman"This is a special bottling of Listán Blanco from Monje, as the family only produces this long-aged cuvée in top years when they have need of some new barrels for the cellar. When the combination of a high quality...

97 points Wine Enthusiast"Fragrant and refined, this compelling red has aromas of woodland berry, ground pepper, camphor and tilled earth. Full-bodied and structured, the youthfully tense palate features ripe red cherry, pomegranate, star anise and...
