Krydret appelsinskall og solrike mandarinnoter balanserer stålaktige biter av lime og mineral i denne friske, dypt konsentrerte Rieslingen. Middelsmaken avrundes rikt, glassert av et lag med lanolin…

Fantastisk, morsom vin. Aromaene er vakre: cola, svart bringebær, mørk te, vanilje, røyk og støvete krydder. På ganen er den klar, delikat. Den ser ut til å flyte, samtidig som det er kraftig frukt.…

En fantastisk fyldig Pinot, preget av frisk kirsebær, jordbær, plomme, kanel og urter. Eksplosivt duftende, rik og livlig på ganen, hvor den avslutter langt og fyldig. En ekte vinner fra denne spesia…

Among the most northerly of the run of Beaune premier crus, the wine is structured but the structure is cushioned by the ripe red-berry fruits to give a generous wine. Backed by tannins, the wine wil…

A firmly structured wine, solid with tannins and with structure. The wine is also full of fruit potential, ripe with red berries. It is dense wine that needs to age. Drink from 2025.

This is a big but balanced expression of Cabernet that is ready to drink now. Layers of black cherry, caramel, vanilla, smoke and crushed black rocks show on the lavish nose. The palate's chalky text…

This blend of Grenache (53%), Cabernet Sauvignon (34%) and Syrah (13%) explodes with potpourri, peat, white pepper, smoke and earth aromas. The palate is loaded with fruit and savory flavors that gli…

This is a cool wine, with acidity and citrus fruits well in evidence. It comes from one of the higher premier-cru vineyards, giving a crisp and textured wine even in this warm vintage. It needs time.…

Epitomizes the New World style of a superripe, soft, plush wine, bursting with fruity-berry flavors, and generously oaked. Hard to imagine a wine flattering the palate more, with its graceful tannins…

A beautifully elegant, focused wine, full of racy, steely fruit, managing to combine fullness with lightness and an intensely dry aftertaste. Hirtzberger's 29-acre vineyard is in the western Wachau v…

Bründlmayer, one of Austria's most famed winemakers, finds that the lyre method of training the vine gives significantly more concentration. That's certainly true of this rich, full, intense wine, wi…

Essentially Scott Paul's reserve, this is sourced entirely from biodynamically-farmed, 40-year-old vines at the Maresh vineyard. The Audrey layers cherry fruit with streaks of mineral, and carries pl…
