95 points The Wine Independent: "Pale to medium garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Melange Rouge has a profound nose of red and black cherries, violets, and dark chocolate with underlying licorice, Sichuan pepper, smoked meats, and tar. The medium to full-bodied palate is lively and vibrant - pop-rocks in your mouth - with lots of texture interest combining plush and chewy, and bright and lifted fruit leading to a peppery finish. The blend is 54% Syrah, 25% Grenache, 9% Graciano, 6% Petite Sirah, and 6% Viognier. The wine was fermented with 40% whole cluste...

After working as the vineyard manager for Newton Vineyards for over 30 years, Lupe Maldonado bought a 10-acre piece of land in the cool southern tip of Napa (in Jamieson Canyon), and planted vineyards in the dark, gravelly clay soil. He brought in Jean Hoefliger from Newton as his consulting winemaker.
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.

91-94 points Jeb Dunnuck: "A perennial over-achiever, the 2018 Château Lilian Ladouys doesn’t disappoint and offers classic notes of black and blue fruits, damp earth, violets, and a touch of minerality. Made from 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot aging in 35% new French oak, this medium to full-bodied 2018 has beautiful purity, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It’s going to be a brilliant value." (05/2019) 94 points James Suckling: "Blackcurrant, bitter-chocolate, dried-lavender and graphite aromas. It’s full-bodied with firm, ti...

Made by two incredible winemakers collaborating across neighboring regions. Mark Herold takes B. Wise fruit from their Napa vineyards (75%), and Massimo Monticelli takes estate grown fruit from B. Wise's Moon Mountain estate (25%) and they combine them into something special! A bold, powerful, exuberant wine with tons of fruit, muscular mountain structure, and exotic oak spices and polish. This wine has $100+ Napa Cabs losing sleep at night! (Ryan Woodhouse - K&L Domestic Wine Buyer)

96 points Wine Enthusiast: "This deep ruby-colored wine offers aromas of Chambord, herbes de Provence, violet and cocoa bean. Opulent tannins support flavors of Mission fig, cherry preserves, licorice, clove and violet. A splash of brightness and a silky butterscotch note stick around long after the last sip.

94 points Vinous: "The 2018 Pinot Noir Ryan Vineyard is quite deep and heady in this vintage. Red fruit, iron, white pepper and savory herbs give the Ryan its distinctly incisive, feral personality. Hints of blood orange, raspberry and spice add an exotic flair. There is plenty of character here, that is for sure. (AG)" (05/2022) 94 points Wine Enthusiast: "Coming from vines that provided less than one ton per acre, this concentrated bottling begins with aromas of blackberry, loamy soil and a hint of violet.

90 points Vinous: "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is well defined on the nose, scents of blackberry, mint and touches of fennel all gaining intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with a softer opening than I expected. There’s mainly red fruit at play here, fleshy and generous, with a touch of pepperiness on the finish. Fine, but I think this year it is no better than the Merlot. (NM) " (07/2021) K&L Notes: 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Cabernet Franc, 22% Merlot, 17% Petit Verdot, 5% Malbec & 1% Syrah.

The Lorenzo Mattoni Sagrantino di Montefalco is a bold and structured expression of the Sagrantino grape, grown in the heart of Montefalco in Umbria. Sagrantino is known for its intense tannins and remarkable depth, and Lorenzo Mattoni's approach highlights the power and elegance of this iconic varietal.

94 points Wine & Spirits: "Small yields and moderate to warm weather result in a Mills that’s generous in 2018, with a richness that’s delicious and satisfying. Mike Waller has managed to retain a wild savor here that gives the wine completeness and intricacy, a complex spice of dust and herb oils, sundried tomato and an earthy, rooty depth, all woven seamlessly around the fruit. It should age beautifully. (PJC)" (04/2022) 93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Roasted cherry and juniper aromas give a rugged mountain angle to this bottling, but there's also splas...

93 points Wine Advocate: "Sourced from head-trained, dry-farmed vines planted in 1981 in the east-facing hills above Cupertino, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Luchessi Vineyard is an elegant and poised wine that harkens back to another era of California Cabernet. It has aromas of pipe tobacco, coffee grounds and mulberries. Medium-bodied and refined on the palate with silky, fine tannins and a pleasing acid structure, this wonderfully fresh and understated showing could use a handful of years in the cellar and should age gracefully beyond that. 93+"

The Produttori di Carema Carema Selezione is a beautifully structured and elegant expression of Nebbiolo from the Carema DOC, a lesser-known gem in northern Piedmont. Located at the foot of the Alps, Carema is known for its steep, terraced vineyards, and the wines from this area are often compared to Barolo for their complexity, but with a lighter, more refined touch. Produttori di Carema is a cooperative dedicated to preserving the traditions of this region, and the Selezione is their top-tier wine, made from the best fruit in exceptional vintages.

The wine has taken on some Fino character, nuttier with notes of dried herbs and a pungent palate.

The "Mysterium" Barbera d'Asti Superiore from Tenuta Montemagno is a bold and refined expression of Barbera, grown in the rolling hills of Asti in Piedmont.

Winemaker Bálint Losonci, began his career as a local wine writer but fell in love with the process. Early on he recognized the potential of the Matra region even though it was known mostly for bulk production during the Soviet era. Working with native grapes and all low intervention winemaking, Bálint has become one of the region's great cult successes. The Királyleányka is an indigenous grape grown in the region and this bottling is what the importer Eric Danch, calls "a mix of extremes." First the vineyard received zero spraying of any kind in 2018...

One of the classic icon producers of the L'Etoile region, Montbourgeau began its history in the 1920s and has produced traditional Jura wines ever since. L'Etoile takes its name from the tiny fossilized stars scattered throughout the limestone and marl soils. The Cuvee Speciale is particularly unique because it is 100% Chardonnay aged in barrel with no topping off for almost 5 years. As the wine slowly concentrates, the classic veil aromas of honey, beeswax, minerals and spices slowly develops. It is an incredibly long and complex wine.

Sesta di Sopra’s wines capture the scented Mediterranean vegetation and generous warmth – even in 2018. Violet, dark plum and cinnamon scents give way to exotic woodland herbs and even porcini nuances. One of the vintage's more sumptuous examples, it proposes ample plush fruit hemmed in by firm yet seductively textured tannins.

Château Musar is Lebanon's most famous producer. The winery does not make rosé every vintage, because the winemaker (the late Serge Hochar) sought very specific characteristics from the grapes he uses to create a fine, delicate and elegant rosé. The wine is composed of the indigenous Lebanese grapes Obaideh (55-65%) and Merwah (30-40%), thought to be ancestors of Chardonnay and Semillon, and a small amout of Cinsault.

93 points James Suckling: " A generous dry riesling that is still a bit reserved at almost 4 years of age. On the palate it shows more, having the richness typical for the exceptionally warm vintage (think Asian pear and candied orange peel), but this is so well proportioned that it doesn't feel even slightly too much. Very long, elegant, dry finish with plenty of chalky minerality. Drinkable now, but best from 2024." (06/2022)
