92 points Vinous: "Limpid ruby-red. A wild, spice-inflected bouquet evokes dried red berries, cherry compote, smoked game and succulent flowers. Chewy and well-concentrated on the palate, offering subtly sweet raspberry, cherry, floral pastille and smoked meat flavors that pick up a smoky mineral element with aeration. In a decidedly Old World style, showing solid grip and powerful mineral thrust on the long, gently tannic finish. (JR)" (10/2018) 92 points Wine Enthusiast: "This beloved annual bottling by Randall Grahm blends 39% Mourvèdre, 33% Grenach...
96 points James Suckling: "Cool and perfumed 2016 Brunello with black cherries, flowers and crushed stones. Medium to full body with firm, chewy tannins, yet polished and very silky. Mineral and seaweed undertones. Just a hint of bitterness. " (11/2020) 95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "This wine represents a selection of fruit from vineyards near the property's postcard-perfect Castello, and it's often the most representative of the new releases presented each year by Castello Banfi. From a classic and balanced vintage, the 2016 Brunello di Mo...
95 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Unquestionably my favorite in the lineup, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford Heir Apparent has a Pauillac-like bouquet of blackcurrants, freshly sharpened lead pencils, tobacco, crushed stone, and new leather. Playing in the medium to full-bodied end of the spectrum, it has a seamless, elegant texture, good concentration, notable purity of fruit, and a great finish. While it’s not a blockbuster, it shines for its complexity and terrific overall balance and just has loads of character. If drinking any time soon, give bottles a ...

98 points James Suckling: "Lots of crushed stone, lead pencil and licorice aromas that are extremely aromatic and bright. Black cherries, cloves and purple fruit, too. Full body and a round and ripe center-palate with a juicy interior. It opens at the end with a savory and juicy finish. Layered and beautiful. " (03/2022) K&L Notes: 100-Points, Lisa Perotti-Brown: Composed of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Petit Verdot, the 2019 Dominus was harvested from September 29 to October 10.

95 points Wine Enthusiast: "This elegant, superbly balanced wine offers tempting, just-ripe fruit flavors on a medium to full body, and has a lively, slightly grippy mouthfeel that showcases the vivid red- and black-cherry flavors and subtle baking-spice accents. *Editors' Choice* (JG)" (10/2020) K&L Notes: Copain's "Les Voisins" meaning "neighbors" in French is a high-end cuvée of sites in what people call "the deep end" of Anderson Valley.

93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2016 Pinot Noir Solomon Hills Vineyard has a pale to medium ruby color and wonderful nose of sweet red cherries, raspberry preserves, rhubarb, warm cranberry and strawberry jam with cola, black tea leaves, amaro, dust and dried earth with orange oil and dried flowers hints. Light to medium-bodied, it has restrained fruit in the mouth with lots of spicy notions, a frame of grainy-textured tannins and seamless acidity, finishing long.

92 points James Suckling: "Crushed-strawberry, cherry, lemon-zest, button-mushroom and cedar aromas. It’s medium-bodied with silky tannins and bright acidity. Bright, pure-fruit layers lead to an energetic finish." (02/2021) K&L Notes: Winery notes: A quintessential Pinot Noir, the 2019 is true to its varietal character with ripe cherry, raspberry and rose petal notes accompanied by garnet and bountiful spice characters through the nose.

99 points James Suckling: "Extremely perfumed and floral with lavender, lilacs and violets to the sweet, ripe berries, such as blackberries and blackcurrants. Some slate and graphite, too. It’s full-bodied, yet ever so balanced and refined, with super fine tannins that last for minutes. Fresh herbs, such as bay leaf and lemon grass highlight the dark fruit. The quality of tannin is exquisite with wonderful polish and refinement. Lasts for minutes. So wonderful to taste now, but better after 2026."

94 points James Suckling: "A full-bodied, juicy red with black-cherry, walnut and nutmeg aromas. There's a distinct roasted-beetroot and currant character to this, too. Very juicy on the palate with ripe tannins. Some bitter berries on the finish. Drink after 2024." (10/2020) 93 points Vinous: "The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino from Ferrero is earthy and packed full of ripe berries and woodland herbs in a slightly rustic yet wildly appealing way. The textures are silky and refined, ushering in a mix of savory cherry sauce and hints of cranberry offset by...
95 points Wine Enthusiast: "Beautifully balanced and elegant, this medium- to full-bodied wine serves up flavors of black cherry, blackberry and black tea backed by tingly acidity and moderate fine-grained tannins. It's just short of fully ripe, bringing an appetizing sense of restraint to the palate and finish. *Editors' Choice* (JG)" (08/2020) 94 points Vinous: "Glistening magenta. Expressive black raspberry, cherry, baking spice and incense qualities on the nose; a potpourri nuance builds with aeration. Silky, seamless and sweet, with juicy acidity ...
94 points Wine Enthusiast: "This countywide blend must be coming from the couple of select vineyards that this winery uses regularly. That explains the snappy cranberry, raspberry, thyme, bay leaf and green peppercorn aromas of the nose. The palate dances with tantalizing acidity, offering more bay leaf, game and woody forest fruits, leading into an incense spiced finish. *Editors' Choice* (MK)" (03/2022)

93 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The appellation 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is a big winner and another remarkable achievement from Keith Emerson. It’s another finesse-driven effort offering beautiful red and black fruits as well as floral, dusty earth, and spicy nuances.

94 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Made with the idea to highlight richness and opulence, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Distinctions includes slightly more valley floor fruit compared to the Knights Valley Reserve and offers a forward, sexy, incredibly satisfying style as well as lots of blackcurrant fruit, ripe tannins, and impeccable balance. Despite the richer, more forward style, it’s going to evolve just fine on its balance and concentration."

97 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The NV Châteauneuf Du Pape Reserve XV XVI XVII comes primarily from the magical 2016 vintage with smaller amounts from 2015 and 2017. It offers an extraordinary nose of blackcurrants, ground pepper, garrigue, and crushed violets. Rich, full-bodied, and incredibly seamless, with a stacked mid-palate, this is Châteauneuf Du Pape brilliance all the way. It’s terrific today yet will keep for 15+ years."

94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The nose of the 2019 Ultreia Saint Jacques is nothing short of spectacular. It shows the varietal character and the juicy and round style of the Valtuille vineyards. It's harmonious, clean and expressive. They are using more and more stems with long macerations, malolactic in tanks and aging in 30% oak vats (he purchased from Alión) and 70% of the wine in used 225-liter oak barrels for one year. There is only one master blend, which is put into oak vats and bottled by 25,000- to 30,000-bottle lots. In 2019 he pro...

Good length, and otherwise very well balanced. (MW)" (08/2021) K&L Notes: Jacques Coipel worked in the petrol industry until 2002 when he decided to change career paths and enter the wine business.

95 points Jeb Dunnuck: "I continue to love this cuvée from Bourrier, and her 2018 Côtes Catalanes Secret De Schistes is another Northern Rhône-like Syrah sourced all from schists soils and brought up in plenty of new oak, although the oak is so well integrated you'd never know it. Deep purple, with a great nose of flowery red and blue fruits, graphite, crushed stone, ground pepper, and violets, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a seamless, elegant texture, plenty of finely polished tannins, and outstanding length. It's a more stream...
95 points Wine Enthusiast: "Tasted alongside the more richly extracted 2020 vintage, this 2019 bottling of Morot’s Beaune Teurons highlights ripe blackberry and cherry flavors lifted by streaks of acidity and a crystalline spine of minerality. Luscious in fruit yet svelte and bristling, it’s an elegant, satisfying wine that’s approachable young yet is likely to improve through 2030 and hold further still.

92-94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 6% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple in color, it charges out of the gate with loads of blueberry preserves and stewed black plums notes on the nose with faint suggestions of redcurrant jelly and rose hip tea plus a waft of wild sage. Full-bodied and jam-packed with ripe black and blue fruit, it has a soft texture and perfumed finish.

94 points Vinous: "Made with grapes from Gualtallary and aged for 15 months in old foudres, this Malbec, mixed with 10% Cabernet Franc, is proof of the beauty of the combination: the Franc lends the Malbec greater discipline and depth. Bright purple in the glass. The nose offers fresh cherries and plums with aromas of thyme. Gentle in the mouth, delivering fine, subtle tannins that lend framework, all with a genial freshness that brings the flavors to life and pleasantly stretches out the slightly taut palate. A delicious wine. (JH)" (10/2020) 92 point...
95 points James Suckling: "An impressively poised and detailed pinot that offers such expressive red cherry and blueberry. Really pure and vibrant aromas and flavors. The tannins are crisply cut and deliver an uplifting feel to the palate with intense and lively style. *Top 100 New Zealand Wines of 2021*" (11/2020) 92 points Wine Enthusiast: "This is classic Otago Pinot at a fantastic price, but it takes its time to unravel. Pop this into a decanter and once open, it shows balance and expression, with brambly blueberry and red berry fruit, layers of ba...
99 points James Suckling: "This offers aromas of violets, blueberries, red and dark cherries, fragrant, freshly cracked black pepper and wet dark stones. Complex, but still tightly wound and reserved. The palate is very concentrated, dense and elegantly poised with such powerful tannin, carrying concentrated blueberry and dark-cherry flavors long. Really taut, fully ripe and mouthwateringly intense Pinot Noir. Dark cherry-pit freshness to close. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but better in five years."

Deeply colored (more so than normal) with powerful notes of blackberries, currants, ground pepper, leafy herbs, and hints of seaweed wrappers (think sushi wrappers), it hits the palate with a full-bodied concentrated, powerful style that carries polished tannins, ample fruit, and a great finish.

Just sensational anyway you look at it, with flamboyant notes of blackberries, roasted herbs, melted licorice, and Asian spices, this beauty is ripe, powerful, and full-bodied, with sweet tannin and a great finish. It’s for the Grenache lovers out there and will keep for 10-15 years. Despite its rich, powerful style, this beauty just glides over the palate. Bravo!" (08/2018) 95 points Robert P...
93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Delicately scented, this medium-bodied wine has aromas of red berries, grilled herbs, sunbaked earth and truffle. Savory and linear, the palate offers juicy Morello cherry, blood orange and star anise alongside taut, fine-grained tannins before closing on a saline note. While you won't need years before you can enjoy this, it also promises good midterm aging potential. (KO)" (07/2021)

97 points Decanter: "Ettore Spina and Enrica Bandirola purchased the Sesta di Sopra estate as a holiday home in the late 1980s. After restoring the farmhouse, they replanted a total of 2.8 hectares of vines and produced their first wine from the 1999 vintage. The 2016 leads with captivating aromas of dry earth, tea, violet and lavender, and the palate is equally compelling. Battonage of the lees during ageing gives a rather sumptuous palate with perceptively talc-like dusty tannins sitting underneath the fruit. Iron and stone impart complexity to this se...

A little tight and reserved, but pretty and precise. " (10/2020) 93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Wild berry, crushed herb, new leather and truffle aromas emerge from the glass. The juicy, savory palate offers red cherry, crushed raspberry, licorice and a hint of grilled porcini framed in taut, polished tannins.

100 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Its sublime elegance, the power, the medium to full-bodied texture, the silky tannins, the subtle notes of smoke, lead pencil shavings, black currants, charcoal, camphor, blueberry and cassis fruit are all remarkable. It is a rich, full-throttle wine, but the elegance and the great terroir of Pape Clement come through in abundance.
