96 points Decanter: "Pommard, Wadenswil (50%) and a bit of Dijon, the youngest vines on the Maresh estate, are from 1997, as well as plantings from 1991, 83, and 70, all of it own-rooted. Earth and rose petals announce gorgeous aromatics. Winemaker Jim Maresh destems 100%. It sees 18-24 months in barrel. At $33.50, this may be the best deal in American wine. Earthen aromatics, pine bough, and blood orange spritz. The palate is fresh with blue and red bramble fruits, spicy clove and savoury herbaceousness.

96 points Sam Kim: "This is seductively complex and enticing on the nose, showing dark berry, bouquet garni, roasted nut and dried mushroom aromas, leading to a concentrated palate that's both refined and robust. It's expansive and finely textured with beautifully pitched tannins, making it splendidly structured and lingering. Certified organic. At its best: now to 2035."

97 points Decanter: "The West Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir from Peay is comprised of 81% Estate fruit. The rest comes from their neighbour, Richardson Vineyard, who grow fruit for some of the Peay wines and loan the Peays their sheep to manage weed management. The wine is extraordinary, given its youth. An earthen depth predominates the aromas, with candied red fruits and rose petals. The palate is lush and gorgeously textured with fleshy red fruits set against savoury clove and a concentrated minerality of crushed stone. Finishing with beguiling notes of wil...

Burghound: "An ultra-fresh and nicely ripe nose freely offers up its pretty aromas of mostly red pinot fruit and soft earth scents. The racy, delicious and attractively textured middleweight flavors conclude in a dusty and lightly austere finale. While this could be approached young, 2 to 5 years of keeping should round off the finish and develop more depth." (01/2024) Jasper Morris: "Plots on the sand for the most part. A bright purple. Lean, austere, fresh. Red berries with even a chocolate note behind. Drier finish but enough fruit. Ready to bottle....
94 points Wine Enthusiast: "An estate-grown wine given 30% whole-cluster fermentation, this is a fleshy and lively red wine, broad in appeal and funky earthiness. Forest, black tea and spicy white pepper dominate a lighthearted palate of silky texture and elegance. (VB)" (11/2021) 91 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2018 Pinot Noir West Pole is outstanding as well as a notable value. Giving up lots of brambly herbs and stemmy nuances paired with a core of sweet raspberry and cherry fruits, it’s medium-bodied and has a rounded, elegant texture along with plenty...
92-94 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Pinot Noir Seafarer showed beautifully, with a darker strawberry, plum, and mulberry-driven profile offering lots of cooler peppery herb, violet, and underbrush-like nuances. It's medium-bodied, silky, and elegant on the palate." (08/2023)
From K&L On the Trail blog: "Jean-Michel Giboulot took over the family business in 1982 and has put together one of the best bang-for-your-buck portfolios in all of Burgundy over the last three-plus decades. His wines from Burgundy's Savigny-lès-Beaune appellation are known as great values, and both the reds and whites are equally strong. Giboulot's wines straddle the line between traditional and modern, with reds that have crunchier fruit and fine tannins, but plenty of ripeness and purity.

The concentrated palate offers succulent fruit flavours with plush texture backed by beautifully melded tannins, finishing impressively long and soothing. A splendid expression combining fruit richness with spicy/savoury undertones. At its best: now to 2035. " (07/2024)

92 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2017 Pinot Noir Rancho La Cuna comes from a site in Santa Barbara County and spent 20 months all in new French oak. It has an incredibly exotic, singular bouquet of mint, ripe red and blue fruits, sassafras, and spice. This carries to a medium-bodied Pinot Noir with good fruit, building tannins, well integrated acidity, and a clean finish.

A hint of floral aromas with cassis, dark-fleshed plum, blackberry and a subtle seasoning of spicy oak. Delicious wine that can be appreciated now." (11/2023) 97 points Raymond Chan: "Bright, ruby-red with good transparency, slightly lighter on the rim. It has a broody, alluring bouquet penetrating with aromas of black cherry, blackberry, plum, wild thyme, sage mushroom and a hint of game. Medium-bodied, lightly savoury ...

92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Like many of Te Mata's 2020 reds, this young pup needs a little time to open if drinking now. Once it does, there're elegant aromas of cherry and blueberry fruit, violets and roses, ground black pepper, cloves and a slight meatiness in a well-tucked bed of mocha oak. Tangy red fruit on the silky palate is tightly wound by fine tannins and lifted by a crunch of acidity. A unique Pinot that bears the Te Mata stamp of place, polish, freshness and structure. (CP)" (09/2022)

This is vividly fruit-focused yet crisp in feel, with tactile minerals adding a crunchy sensation as tart red and blue fruits swirl throughout. It tapers off youthfully tense, leaving a staining of primary concentration while silty tannins frame the experience well.

It has muscle in all the right places (primarily the finish, where it accelerates away) and restraint in all others. The tannins that shape the fruit in the mouth are whisper fine and curl and curve their way across the tongue. This is a beautiful wine with grace and poise."

90 points Vinous: "Flavorsome and tender, the 2021 Pinot Noir A2 is an immediately appealing wine with just the right amount of flesh counterbalanced by a corset of acidity that sticks around until a satisfying, bright finish. The aromatics have a distinctive herbal edge that might remind you of fennel and wormwood or woody green herbs. Its herbal personality follows through in its flavors and is joined by cherry cola and earthy notes. The fine-grained tannins are fully integrated and combined with the fresh acidity to give a lightly structured and fragr...

This is a stunning Pinot Noir from the producer Decanter calls "The Pinot Noir Pioneer of Marlborough." Grown on cooler sites in the region, it deftly balances tart red fruit notes with earthy undertones and a beautiful mineral throughline.

Henri Le Roy is a first generation winemaker who began his original career as a biologist in Paris. But after falling in love with Burgundy, he found that he did not possess Burgundy money — so he decided to look further east, to the Jura, where he saw similar potential, but a little more affordable lands to begin his second career in wine. His first vintage was 2005, and he has continued to evolve and grow as a winemaker for the past decade-plus. Henri prefers to make ouille-styled wines (topped off barrels), as opposed to the traditional oxidative, o...

Allen Meadows of Burghound writes: "Jacques Bavard is a former Paris restauranteur and a fifth generation Puligny winemaker. He lives in the old stone house of his grandfather on the Grand Rue. However, he is not farming his family vines but has become a micro-négoce working closely with several growers. Bavard prefers early picking since he believes Burgundy needs nervous energy to better display its terroir. He works with a mix of conventionally-sized barrels and with 350 liter barrels with the goal of obtaining more volume on the mid-palate but with l...

Clearly more generous fruit on the nose, retaining a chiselled austerity on the palate but still with a generous dark strawberry fruit which pushes through to the finish."

Château de la Charrière is the family property of Yves Girardin, scion of one the most established families in Burgundy, with a history extending back 13 generations.

89-91 points Burghound: "Note: note the new spelling as INAO is now objecting to the use of Les Echézeaux due to possible confusion with the grand cru despite the identifying village name. Reduction again masks the underlying fruit. By contrast, there is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the succulent yet nicely delineated middleweight flavors that flash a more discreet minerality on the mildly austere but not rustic finale that exhibits sneaky good persistence.
