Wine Advocate (93)The 2021 Chardonnay Sophie's Vineyard comes from an isolated vineyard near the town of Yoncalla in the Umpqua Valley, planted in the late 1970s with Draper and Wente selections. Matured in oak and finished with four months in stainless steel, it has fresh scents of green pear, quince and citrus blossom with undertones of almonds, flint and honey. The light-bodied palate is creamy and plush with gently nutty fruits and a long, refreshing finish. |

Wine Advocate (98)Among the most saturated blue/purple/black-colored examples of the vintage, Taylor's 2000 tastes like a young vintage of Chateau Latour on steroids. Aromas of graphite, blackberry liqueur, creme de cassis and smoke jump from the glass. Spectacularly concentrated and enormously endowed, with sweetness allied to ripe tannin, decent acidity, and layer upon layer of fruit and extract, this is the leading candidate for the port of the vintage.

Wine Advocate (97)The 2018 Matallana is the only wine they produced in Ribera del Duero, a traditional blend of Tempranillo with approximately 15% other varieties —Valenciano (Bobal), Navarro (Garnacha) and white Albillo—from different soils in five different villages, Sotillo de la Ribera, Roa, Fuentecén, Fuentemolinos and Pardilla. It fermented in oak and stainless steel vats with indigenous yeasts and matured for 14 months in French oak barrels of different ages. It has 14.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.68. The wine is subtle, harmonious and elegant, complex and with integrated oak, very expressive with velvety tannins and a long, dry, chalky finish. This is superb, elegant but with the Duero rusticity and stone minerality. It has to be the finest Matallana to date. 22,020 bottles produced. It was bottled in May and June 2020. They skipped the 2017 of this wine as the year was decimated by killer frost. |

It is also a bit shut down; so I would prefer to give it a few years in bottle to be at its best. Black fruit, chocolate, leather, licorice and spice build into the potent, virile finish.

Jeb Dunnuck (96)The 2014 Troplong Mondot is unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage, and this beauty has more intensity, richness, and exuberance than just about every other wine in 2014. A blend of 90% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc brought up in 85% new French oak, it sports a deep purple/plum color as well as a smorgasbord of blackcurrants, blackberries, scorched earth, toasty oak, graphite, espresso, and earth. With full-bodied richness, beautiful purity of fruit, and a rich, yet weightless texture, it’s a big, yet classy, elegant, and seamless wine from Xavier Pariente that should be snatched up by readers. It’s already drinking well but has 20-25 years of prime drinking to go. |

Thick, quite dry and powerful, with tactile saline minerality conveying a strong impression of dusty extract. Impressive buffering material here. Finishes strong and long. These vines were harvested on August 30, said enologist Julien Desplans, who believes that this wine will evolve in bottle for at least 12 years. He noted that the 2002 version is still good today. |

The Verget Saint Veran 2017, a sterling vintage hailing from the revered vineyards of Saint Veran in Southern Burgundy, epitomises the unique terroir of the Maconnais region. Crafted by the celebrated wine producer, Verget, this Chardonnay-based wine exhibits a blend of refined elegance and vibrancy. On the palates of connoisseurs, keen notes of golden apple, pear, and a hint of citrus blossoms unfold, underscored by a subtle mineral quality. Noteworthy is the reserved yet meticulous use of oak, a signature Verget practice, evident in the rounded, nutty nuances suffusing the wine's crisp acidity. The Verget Saint Veran 2017 is matured for 8 to 10 months in a mix of old barrels and stainless steel tanks, culminating in a wine that is both captivating and complex. An unassuming masterpiece, it's a monument to Verget's passionate pursuit of expressing Burgundy's terroir in every bottle. |

Wine Advocate (94)The 1989 Vieux Château Certan has long been one of my favorite wines of that decade. The bouquet shows no signs of relinquishing that title with gorgeous black truffle, bay leaf, warm gravel and briary scents that are simply beautifully defined. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine line of acidity, warm earth on the entry, leather and truffle, great depth here with sublime precision on the finish, which is bridled with hints of mushroom and cloves. Maybe this is reaching its peak? Then again, it shows absolutely no signs of reaching the end of its plateau. This is nothing short of a wondrous Pomerol from Alexandre Thienpont. Tasted January 2016. |

This comes recommended for the vintage and I suspect it will give 12-15 years of drinking pleasure. |

From the heart of California's Fort Ross-Seaview AVA, the idolised Wayfarer WF2 Pinot Noir 2020 is a paragon of meticulous viniculture. Its grapes are grown on the sun-soaked Wayfarer Estate vineyard, a jewel nestled in the cooling coastal fog. Reflecting the distinctive maritime terroir, this fine wine offers a vibrant bouquet of wild strawberry, rose petal, and fragrant spice. Structured and concentrated, each sip dances with notes of red and black fruits, ending with a streak of minerality showcasing the wine's exceptional pedigree. Masterfully created under the discerning hand of winemaker, Bibiana González Rave, the wine is aged for 15 months in French Oak, further enriching its already profound complexity. The Wayfarer WF2 Pinot Noir 2020 is a testament to the art of wine-making. A collector's dream, this fine wine encapsulates the unique grace and power of Californian Pinot Noir, destined to delight the palate for many years to come. |

Halliday Wine Companion (95)Relatively bright but light colour; a super-elegant, supple palate and spotless bouquet; natural acidity gives the wine its special brightness and length; new French oak and tannins play a pure support role to a classy wine which has tremendous length. |
