94 points Decanter"There are plenty of ripe black plum and fig aromas, with strong components of earth and leather. Despite all the ripeness here, the wine is still balanced. Winemaker Jérôme Flous says: 'It is not far from 2018, but the...

94 points Jeb Dunnuck"The 2019 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley has more floral aromas, with sweet cedar, ripe raspberry, and baking spice. The palate has beautiful concentration and fresh fruit that surges through to a long finish with a tangerine note...

91 points Vinous"The 2022 Kerner lifts from the glass with immaculate freshness. An airy blend of mint leaves and chlorophyll gives way to green melon aromas. Juicy and energetic, this glides across the palate with silken textures and lime-tinge orchard...

99 points Tim Atkin MW"Boekenhoutskloof has always made impressive, age-worthy Semillons, but Gottfried Mocke has taken 2020 to another level of complexity. Using grapes from three old parcels, planted in 1902, 1936, and 1942, with the largest...

Jancis Robinson"Full bottle 1,336 g. Broad, honeysuckle, clementine and spices on the nose. Juicy fruit, drawing from the clementine on the nose, adding Seville-orange zest, and the broad brushstroke of spice taking on the more precise flavours of...

92 points Jeb Dunnuck"The 2021 Cornas is solid, with a pretty, medium-bodied, elegant prolife that shines for its purity of fruit. Both red and blue fruits, sappy flowers, cedary spice, and hints of iron all define the bouquet, and it's silky and...

Jancis Robinson"Cask sample. Mid crimson. Prettily scented with peony and red fruit. Classic Chambolle fragrance. On the palate, that floral and red-fruit character matches the aroma. Moderate intensity and plush texture. So approachable and better...

97 points Wine Spectator"This red is silky, complex and very expressive today. Delivers black cherry, blackberry, sandalwood, spicy oak and mineral flavors, while the well-integrated structure lends support. This has a discreet oak element, which lingers...

94 points Decanter"Green apple fruit with a touch of bitter pear skin adding bite. Dauvissat has four parcels with the largest opposite the premier cru of Forêts. A great 'straight' Chablis which has a super-fine texture to go along with the...

94+ points Vinous"An enticing mix of incense, black tea, cracked pepper and red wild berries emanate from the 2016 Valpolicella Superiore. This is undeniably elegant, with its silky textures that seem to coat the entire palate in a seductive layer of...

99 points James Suckling"A very complex and complete nose with everything so integrated and beautifully judged. There are ripe blackberries, blood plums, fragrant spices, dark stones and roasted coffee, to name just some of what is already on offer here...
