94 Points - Raffaele Vecchione. A great Barolo from the cru Ravera, close to the villages of Barolo and Novello, from the extraordinary 2019 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!

The Mas de Mancuso Mancuso Garnacha 2021 is one of the finest Garnacha wines made in Carinena, which is saying something given how many great Garnacha wines are to be found here. Made from old vines that give naturally low yields, it offers a lovely combination of plump, juicy red and black cherry fruit with blackberry and raspberry notes. Medium-bodied and soft, touches of raspberry and loganberry, it's a fresh form of Garnacha, one that bears more than a passing rese

Produced from a mix of sustainably grown Clairette, Grenache Blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne, and Viognier vines, this is classic Cotes du Rhone Blanc. As with so many of Chateau de Gourdon’s wines, the Fontaine du Sud is fruit-driven and allows the natural brilliance of the vineyard and vine to shine through. Following a gentle pressing the wines are fermented at low temperatures (typically around 13.5 °C) and then allowed to rest on their lees over the winter. The resulting wine is fresh, complex,

Barolo's little brother, Langhe Nebbiolo, is a younger and more approachable wine that doesn't require years of aging to soften the tannins, unlike some Barolos. While still retaining all the charming characteristics of Nebbiolo, the addition of 10% Barbera into the blend gives it a softer side. Expect beautifully perfumed red fruits and a smooth, balanced, and long finish. Taste Canebbio is an elegant and refined wine, and its colour of mellow red garnet shades out to burnt orange near the side

Made from bush vines planted over 80 years ago in the heart of the Manduria Valley, this is a serious, small-batch Primitivo from one of Puglia’s most quality-focused producers. Yields are tiny, and it shows in the glass: dense, dark, and concentrated, with layers of black cherry, damson, and sweet spice. Despite its power, there’s freshness and balance here too — a well-judged, modern take on a classic southern Italian style. Vivino Rating: 4.3 (April 2025) Taste Amazingly deeply coloured (you

94 Points - The Wine Journal. The Lou Miranda Estate Centenarian Old Vine Shiraz is a piece of Australian wine history. It is produced in minuscule quantities from fruit from their Church block which was established in 1907.

Dry grown rather than irrigated, and hand-tended at every stage of their development to ensure each vintage meets the exa

'Vol de Nuit' is a pure expression of the Carignan grape variety from a selection of 3 very old parcels of vines dating back to 1900. The result is a wine with a very deep colour and an explosion of fruit, black cherry and spice. Simply wonderful!  About the Producer A story that began when, in 1816, Raymond Amiel won the deeds to this property from the Bishop of Perpignan over a game of cards. Then a mere 10 hectares, the fortunes of the estate have waxed and waned over the ensuing 200 years. W
