‘’A strapping young red, full of black cherry and blackberry fruit, iron and earth flavors. Shows plenty of grip to the dense tannins and a flourish of new oak on the spicy finish.’’

‘’The 2018 Ornellaia is an introvert at this stage. Medium in body, with terrific persistence and impeccable balance, the 2018 is not in any mood to show all its cards today. Hints of red berry fruit, mocha, spice, licorice and dried flowers emerge with a bit of coaxing. I won’t be surprised to see it put on weight with more time in bottle. There is certainly plenty to look forward to. Readers should expect a silky, aromatic Ornellaia in line with vintages such as 2004 that are more about finesse than raw power. This is the first time in which Merlot drives the blend in Ornellaia.’’

‘’The purple-colored 2007 Mas La Plana displays notes of smoky oak, spice box, violets, black currant, and blackberry in its inviting bouquet. It opens in the glass to reveal a smooth texture, elegant personality, and enough structure to evolve for 2-3 years. Nicely proportioned and with excellent volume...’’

‘’One of the standouts in this range, the 2018 Riesling Clos Windsbuhl is incredibly vivid in the glass. Time in the glass brings out myriad layers of flavor and dimension. Orange confit, crushed rocks, mint and more exotic notes all meld together in an airy, weightless wine that has so much to offer. The 2018 is at once intense but also carries itself with a real sense of grace.’’ www.vinous.com

‘’Tempier's 2018 Bandol Rose marks another successful vintage for this consistent standout. It's light to medium-bodied, not overly ripe or rich, but all about balance and refreshment. Tangerine and melon aromas and flavors hit all the right notes, lingering on the already elegant finish.’’

‘’They have used only barrels, and in 2018 40% of the oak was new, but in the future there will be a 1,000-liter oak foudre for this. The élevage is longer—17 to 18 months—and the wine develops more. The barrels are never topped up, so it's a little more oxidative. And in this vintage, there is some creaminess (perhaps the high percentage of new oak), with a showier profile, peachy juiciness, more volume and a spicy twist a little à la Jura, but more Meursault than Puligny. It's more expressive, rounder and juicier, less radical than some of the earlier years, spicy and with notes of fennel.’’

‘’The wine comes through as elegant and refined, with some peachy notes combined with the varietal, herbal and mineral notes. The palate is sleek, with extra freshness in this 2018, with a saline and faintly bitter finish. This is plain delicious.’’

‘’In 2018, it has a slightly lighter color and is a little more ethereal and elegant than other vintages, with less alcohol and terrific balance. This is perfumed and elegant, a little fuller than La Penitencia, with a very faint creamy touch, perhaps from being aged in the smaller barrels. It has to be one of the finest vintages of El Pecado.’’

‘’This has an explosive nose that is floral and exotic, with a wild herbal touch, juicy, a little rustic, very faithful to the origin. It has some citrus notes of freshness, and the palate is intense, high-pitched, electric, pungent and very long and mineral. It has moderate alcohol and very fine tannins, energy and light—it's simply superb.’’

‘’Unfurling in the glass with a youthfully reserved nose of raspberries, wild plums, spices, white tea and rose petals, the 2019 Morgon Côte du Py Javernières is medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with real concentration, lively acids and powdery structuring tannins. Still quite tightly wound after its recent bottling—a matter of weeks before I tasted it—this will, as ever, merit several years in the cellar. At maturity, I suspect the 2019 will be more dynamic than the 2018 rendition, and it will delight admirers of serious cru Beaujolais.’’

‘’Very complex nose of flowers, herbal liqueur, fresh walnuts and wet earth. Cool, sleek and graceful, in spite of the considerable structure, the bright acidity lifting all of this and making it feel much lighter than the actual 13.5% alcohol. Long, filigree, mineral finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.’’

‘’The top wine of the estate, the 2013 Côtes du Roussillon Villages La Petite Sibérie is a Grenache dominated cuvee that incorporates 5% each of Syrah and Mourvèdre. Still firm and even a touch backward, it offers serious notes of black raspberries, toasted spice and hoisin sauce, with serious chalky minerality on the finish. Big, rich and structured on the palate, it's a concentrated, structured 2013 that needs to be forgotten for 2-3 years, and enjoyed over the following decade. It’s worth noting that this cuvee is brought up all in new oak, and it’s absorbed every trace.’’

‘’The 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous is full-bodied, rich and velvety, yet it also possesses more freshness and concentrated berry fruit than the Vieilles Vignes bottling. An absolute beauty of a beast, it delivers ripe raspberries and cherries, a gentle dusting of Asian spice and a long, long finish.’’

‘’With its more discreet oak and layers of complexity, the 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina is my favorite release here this year. Layers of dried spices accent raspberries and cherries in this full-bodied, rich and velvety wine. It's more complex and complete than either the Combe des Fous or the Sancto Santorum, longer on the finish and supremely elegant.’’

‘’A very refined, silky style, with subtle bitter cherry, damson plum and raspberry coulis notes racing through, flanked by garrigue and sandalwood notes and ending with graceful rooibos tea and mineral threads. This offers understated luxury. Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Mourvèdre.’’

‘’The 2010 Rayas Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc may be the greatest white Rayas made since the 1990. Aromas of fig, honeysuckle, mango and citrus oil soar from the glass of this 2010. With huge body, excellent acidity and a flowery personality, I had a hard time spitting out this stunningly pure offering as it was the last wine tasted that day. It should keep for 20-30+ years. Sadly, the production of this beauty is approximately 400 cases, so availability is limited.’’

‘’The different cuvees that will go into the 2010 Fonsalette Cotes du Rhone, which is dominated by Grenache, but includes considerable Cinsault, suggest the final wine should possess a deep ruby color along with a lovely nose of spring flowers, kirsch, licorice, earth, pepper and spice. Full-bodied with supple tannins, this charming 2010 should drink well for 20 years.’’

‘’Component #1, "from clay and galets. Deep, inky cherry and creme de framboise scents. Chewy dark fruit preserve flavors, with suave tannic grip and excellent persistence. Component #2: Inky purple color. Powerful dark fruit aromas, with a strong olive undertone. Spicy cherry and plum flavors are framed by solid tannins, turning sweeter and more red-fruity on the finish. In final form this should be a knockout.’’

‘’Vivid ruby. An explosively perfumed bouquet displays red and dark berry preserves, potpourri, licorice and smoky minerals. Broad and fleshy, offering deeply concentrated black raspberry and bitter cherry flavors and a strong note of floral pastilles. Chewy tannins give grip to a powerful, alluringly sweet, endless finish. Shows as much density as I can recall from a young Rayas and is clearly built for the long haul.’’

‘’Bright ruby. Red berry, cherry and Asian spice aromas are lifted by sexy notes of rose petal and blood orange. Impressively pure and perfumed, with remarkable precision and cut to its concentrated but lively flavors of cherry and black raspberry. The weightless, mineral-driven character of this wine is something else. In a distinctly delicate, feminine style, with superb finishing cut and energy.’’

“A peaceful force emanates from La Ripaille, a Cabernet Franc carried out smoothly without losing sight of a great Loire character in this vintage. A wine in great shape at the moment.”
