Cometa is the very best expression in a unique and original way of the characteristics of this extraordinary vine. Intense and fruity aromas, its great structure and minerality today make it one of the most important white wines of southern Italy. Delicate arom

A real hidden gem. This is a wonderful parcel of vines sandwiched in between plots owned by Château Latour & Château Lynch Bages. This is a must have wine for any Bordeaux enthusiast or collector. Only 3000 bottles were made and this full bodied yet elegant wine will mature beautifully over the next 10 years. Made with 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot with the average age of the vines being 40 years old. Great finesse, smoothness, and tannins. This wine is simply divine and will hold its o

Exceedingly low volumes of each vintage are produced by entirely artisanal processes. The grapes are harvested 100% by hand

With the help of wine consultant Eric Boissenot, the grapes are sourced from a single parcel of vines with an age of over 50 years to produce this consistently high scoring and limited production Margaux. Château Grand Tayac is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot and will continue to develop over many few years to come. A hidden gem!

"The Château Moulin de la Rose Saint-Julien is a wonderful showing. It instantly starts off with aromas of red and dark berries woven together with flowers, spices, new leather and toast all unwinding in the glass. On the palate this is medium to fu

95 Point - Decanter Wine Awards . Purity elegance combine with texture, concentration and length. A true reflection of the three Central Otago sub regions that contribute to this Peregrine Pinot Noir. Central Otago is known to be one of the best place in the world to produce Pinot Noir. Concentrated aromas of dried strawberries with notes of black cherry, vanilla and gamey scents. Fined-grained, mouth coating tannins, supported by a juicy and firm acidity. A sensational Pinot Noir. 6 * Peregrine

La Berchere is small parcel in the district of Comblanchien, famous for its stone quarries next to Nuits-Saint-Georges and at the heart of Côte-de-Nuits. From the outstanding 2017 Burgundy vintage, this Côte-de-Nuits Villages is a powerful wine, where the grapes are handpicked in small crates and then sorted on a table before being de-stemmed. Colour and tannic structure are quickly extracted, thereby producing an intense and deeply coloured wine with a powerful nose which unfolds on a bouquet o

'S de Siran' is the 2nd Wine of the Grand Vin Château Siran Margaux. Coming from the same gravel plateau as Château Siran, S de Siran is the result of a rigorous selection of younger vines, but vinified in the same way as the Grand Vin. Distinguished by a predominantly Merlot blend, this gives it immediate drinkability, however, coming from the fabulous 2016 vintage, this wine is showing at its best now but could comfortably age for another 5+ years. This is an excellent value and very drinkable

Solideo is the reserve wine of Dehesa de los Canónigos. Its name means 'Only before God', also used to designate a silk cap that is usually worn by the Pope.  It is made with 85% Tempranillo, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Albillo Mayor and remains in barrels for 24 months, first in American oak of one and two years of age and the last four months in new French oak. On the palate  it is complex, elegant and rounded wine with ageing potential with flavours of black fruit, dried figs, jam, earth, m

92 Points (James Suckling) Clement Fayat set up his construction business in the 1950’s. Having grown it to the 4th largest in its sector (just behind Bouygues – owners of Chateau Montrose) he decided to follow his passion and began to invest in properties in Bordeaux. A lover of Pomerol, he purchased Prieurs de la Commanderie in 1984 and has begun to achieve the potential quality that rough diamond always promised. Dusty garnet colour. Aromas and flavours of mocha, toasty pistachio, and berry t

92 Points - RV WineCritics - A great Barolo from the cru Ravera, close to the villages of Barolo and Novello, from the fantastic 2017 vintage. This Barolo from Cagliero is pure and authentic, beautiful structure with a bouquet of violets, ripe fruit (plums) and spices. Layered and round in the mouth and beautifully balanced, young but pleasant tannins on the tongue, resulting in an endless finish. Already very good today, this wine will age beautifully for years to come! 6 * Cagliero Ravera Baro

This 1.2-hectare vineyard in Pauillac stands next to the 5th growth grand cru classé's of Chateau Batailley, and across the road from Château Grand Puy Lacoste, on soil worthy of a classified growth. The yield here is around 32 hl/ha and the vineyard is planted in equal measure of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The entire batch of their Pauillac parcels is aged in new French oak barrels under the label Château Les Landes de Cach. The result is a superb wine from exceptional soils and winemakers.

91 Points - James Suckling - Double Gold Medal Winner, Gilbert et Gaillard International Challenge 2021. The 2,5 hectare parcel producing just 10,000 bottles of this confidential wine stand in a mythical triangle of vines surrounded by Château Palmer, Rauzan Segla and Cantenac Brown, just the finest terroir one could hope for in the appellation. "Generous nose showing fruits in brandy, dried fruits and fine oakiness. Warm, expressive attack echoing the nose beautifully. The mid-palate and finish

91 Points - Wine Enthusiast. Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, notably known for being the winery that won the Cabernet Sauvignon competition in the famous 1976 Judgment of Paris, was founded in 1970, and is considered a Napa Valley first-growth estate. This is a graceful Chardonnay with aromas of citrus and subtle tropical fruit notes along with apricot, toasted almonds and orange blossom. Medium to full-bodied, the wine has a silky texture and refreshing and flavourful finish with a touch of mineralit

96 Points - IWR - 95 Points - James Suckling. "A classically elegant Brunello di Montalcino with fantastic structure and plenty of dark fruit character. A dream wine for foodies, as it pairs well with endless dishes. The Cortonesi 2016 Brunello di Montalcino shows dark fruit with dried cherry, blackcurrant and plum, then softer spice with toasted almond and grilled herb. A classic expression of the crisp but sunny 2016 vintage with a food-friendly personality.  An absolute steal!  6 * Cortonesi

Scents of salted butterscotch, peach blossom, just-mowed grass and pineapple fill the air. Developed flavors of jasmine-soaked pears and honeyed tangerine are mesmerizing – and the acidity pulls it all together.” Meridith May. Taste Yellow peach, melon, gu

95 Points Wine Spectator. One of Saint-Émilion's most prestigious Grand Cru's, located right next door to the famed Château Cheval Blanc. From the oldest surviving wine producing château in Saint-Émilion comes this incredible Grand Cru wine from a fabulous vintage. A sensationally moreish, fragrant and textured wine created by the renowned Olivier Decelle.  "Another over-achiever in the vintage, the 2018 Château Jean Faure checks in as 65% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Malbec, which comes f

96 Points - James Suckling. Solengo was the brainchild of the legendary winemaker and father of Super Tuscan wines, Giacomo Tachis. The first vintage was 1995 and is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Sangiovese. The wines are aged in French barriques for twelve months and are blended just before the bottling. A long period in bottle follows before the finished Solengo is released. Solengo, by the way, means solitary wild boar in Tuscan, and describes perfectly the regal, power

94 Points - Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy. One of the great appellations of the Côte de Nuits both in terms of size and reputation, Gevrey-Chambertin is characterised by a wide variety of different terroirs. No white wines are found here, only Pinot Noir is cultivated. The soil in this part of the appellation is composed of brown limestone and yields classy, fine, elegant wines. The vineyard is located in the northern part of the appellation, at the top of the hill where it benefits from optim

Located at the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune, Meursault is one of the region’s best-known and most famous villages as it is considered to be the capital of Burgundy’s great white wines. Images of the town hall’s multicoloured tiled roof are familiar to wine lovers around the world. The diversity in the nature and depth of soils and slopes strongly influences the wines more or less on opulence and the presence or not of predominant minerality. Notes of toast and a touch of vanilla, the nose

"Immediately a sense of darker fruit in this vintage. The nose has closed up a little since tasting in barrel. It has some reserved, sanguine notes and an essence-like raspberry core. Some stones and chalk here, too. Very long and focused palate. The grenache is singing here. Dense but soft and supple tannins, the product of thick, healthy s

Medium+ bodied, fresh acidity, silky tannins, it has a ripe but crisp feel throughout. Black cherries and raspberries mix with cranberry jam, spiced tea, clove and earth. This is a fresh, complex, delicious Pinot that covers a lot of different bases. Taste The exotic aroma shows off spicy notes of cardamom, tamarind, allspice and cinnamon. T
