97 points Decanter: "Most keen drinkers now realise that Australia can produce a gamut of Chardonnay styles, but somehow the word seems harder to get out about Shiraz. This wine from Lenswood in the Adelaide Hills should do the trick for anyone who has yet to realise that cool-climate accounts of the variety can be every bit as compelling as as their warm-climate counterparts. The wine is dark in colour, with lots of episcopal purple; the aromas are bright, lifted and billowing, not just cherry-fresh but with some billowing cherry blossom in there too. I...

93 points Decanter: "An incredible Shiraz – sour, peppery and amazingly aromatic with a green peppercorn note atop ridiculously ripe fruit. Crunchy tannins form the perfect platform on which the glorious blackberry, liquorice, rhubarb and cherry notes cavort. 70% of this wine is estate fruit, so that goes some way to explaining why this has such an elite flavour. (MJ)" (09/2023) 93 points James Halliday: "Mostly (83%) Grampians fruit, though there are contributions from Heathcote, Swan Hill and Bendigo. This wine is often a happy hunting ground for val...
Jean-Claude Marsanne took over the winemaking duties for his father Jean Marsanne in 1991. Largely off the radar, they have steadily have produced excellent wines that most people have never heard of. Jean-Claude has slowly expanded their tiny holdings around the village of Mauve which is still where some of the best Syrahs of St-Joseph come from. Think of names like Gonon and Jean-Louis Chave and you start to get a sense of where this wine should be sitting. The wine is a blend across the lieux-dits of Chalaix, Les Côtes, Paradis, Montagnon, Les Oli...
90 points Vinous: "The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Origine bursts with energy. Made of grapes from 30-year-old vines grown in a density of 5,500 per hectare, it comes in at 13.45% alcohol. The 2022 is laced with raspberry jam, ripe blackberry, gravel and leafy elements. Earthy scents add further contrast. Concentrated and refreshing, this is a medium-bodied Crozes-Hermitage with absolutely no hard edges. (NG)(" (10/2023) Jeb Dunnuck: "Blackberries, mulberries, leather, and savory, floral, peppery nuances define the 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Origine, a medium-bod...

95 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Brought up in 15% new oak (with 15% whole clusters), the 2021 Syrah Arnaut is also gorgeous, with a beautiful sense of purity and finesse. Ripe blackberries, hints of red fruits, spicy herbs, leather, and pepper all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a pure, elegant mouthfeel and fine tannins. It shines for its overall balance and purity every bit as much as its richness and power. Enjoy bottles over the coming 10-15 years."

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "The nose is dark and rich, yet also layered and subtle, with both heavy aromas of petrol and tar and juicier notes of blackberries, figs and dark chocolate. The figs and chocolate carry the palate, though wild herbs and bitter orange give buoyancy. Tannins are unyielding, while acid is more discreet but still perceptible." K&L Notes: Planeta's "Burdese" is a robust Sicilian red wine, blending 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Cabernet Franc. The name "Burdese" reflects its Bordeaux-inspired style. Aged in new Allier oak barrique...

96 points Wine Advocate: "The 2018 Farvie Syrah hails from a brilliant season in Western Australia. It was warm and dry but not too warm and not too dry. It was a great year for all varieties and all regions. This is the inaugural release of the Farvie Syrah, which I reviewed upon its release in March 2020. The defining quality that makes this wine great (apart from the vineyard site) is the winemaking and the old large-format French oak that it is matured in. The fruit doesn't take on obvious barrel characters, which allows the inherent delicacy and det...

99 points Jeb Dunnuck: "One of those singular, powerhouse wines that will stop anyone in their tracks (well, its stopped me anyways), the 2020 Syrah Eleven Confessions Vineyard offers an insane nose of bloody red and blue fruits, ground pepper, graphite, cured meats, and baking spices, with some classic Sta. Rita Hills marine/salty sea breeze-like nuances. With a dense, powerful mouthfeel, full-bodied aromas and flavors, massive fruit, and building tannins, this beauty is going to benefit from 2-4 years in the cellar and blow you away over the following ...

Guy Farge took over the management of his family estate in 1980. Originally selling his fruit to the Cave de Tain (where he worked) and then to Delas, in 2007 he began producing wines under his own label. Each year, the wines have grown and evolved as has Guy's winemaking prowess. Now working with his son Thomas, each bottling represents some of the best we have seen from his primarily granitic terroirs. The "Terroir de Granit" is primarily from sites in Aubert, La Roue and around the winery in Saint-Jean-de-Muzols. It is aged in used 400L barrels for a...

93 points Sam Kim: "This is instantly appealing on the nose with dark and purple fruit intensity, violet, vanilla, mixed spice and roasted hazelnut aromas, followed by a generously weighted palate offering terrific fruit power together with silky texture and polished tannins. Upfront and fabulously drinkable. At its best: now to 2030." (12/2022)

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "This pint-size Margaret River winery, known for characterful yet clean minimal-intervention wines with downright adorable labels, has nailed the “Felix” style. It's a wine more for the stomach than the head, made for drinking with a wide variety of rustic food. Brightness, elegance and power combine via a bouquet of high-toned red and blueberry fruit, dried flower, tomato leaf, savory herbs and spice, with a ferrous streak. Medium weight, the slinky, juicy fruit is cinched by talc-like tannins. Drink now and over the next few ...

94 points James Halliday: "Deep, deep crimson in the glass with aromas of macerated satsuma plum, black cherry and blackberry fruits and hints of baking spices, licorice, dark chocolate, earth, roasting meats and gently spiced oak. There is a depth and distinct 'Barossa-ness' that belies this wine's prices tag. Structured and purely fruited; there is a lot of enjoyment here for the price tag. Yeah!"

Guy Farge is a third generation grape grower. But, he is late to the game, so to speak, as a vigneron, having bottled his first cuvée from his own grapes in 2007. Nonetheless, his meticulous and committed approach in the vineyard (where all great wine begins) carries through to his winemaking. With his son, Thomas, running the business side of the domaine, Guy is making incredibly expressive wines from his 22 hectares spread over St-Joseph, Condrieu, Cornas, and Saint-Péray. This wine, his entry-level Syrah, carries a lifted freshness to go along with th...

91-93 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Crozes-Hermitage Cuvée Christophe should easily be outstanding. It's made in a slightly more modern style, with some new oak, but it has a classic vibe in its smoky darker fruits and peppery, meaty aromatics. Medium to full-bodied and nicely concentrated, with building tannins, it's going to 2-3 years of bottle age and will evolve nicely over the following decade."

94 points James Suckling: "Brimming with wild blackberry fruit with notes of black pepper and bitter chocolate this is powerful and structured, but also remarkably fresh and bright. There is easily enough ripe fruit to carry the serious tannin structure that some may find slightly challenging in this context, but really excites us. A pure syrah that was matured for a year in French oak. Long, beautifully crafted finish.

The village of Buisson was once a lesser desired site in the Southern Rhone. Sitting on the northern slope of the same hill where the south facing Rasteau and Cairanne lie, this was the cooler side where fruit didn't always achieve maximum ripeness. Nadia and Julien d’Abrigeon saw potential though and were looking for affordable land in the south. They dreamed of creating a biodynamic estate and this cooler site and 80+ year old established vines checked the right boxes for them. Julien had started his journey as a geologist but wanted to work closer...

The medium-bodied palate is bright and fresh with lifted, peppery accents in a friendly, immediately accessible frame. (EB)" 92 points Vinous: "The 2019 Syrah So Hot is done in a slightly different style than the rest of the Stolpman wines.

The full-bodied palate is ripe and powerful without losing its detail. It's loaded with powdery tannins, offers seamless freshness and finishes with tremendous floral perfume. Wow!

The encroaching warmth of the region reverberates across palate-staining dark fruits as much as the cooler reductive handling and communique of dried nori, olive smear and meaty bouillon lathers the finish. A waft of Aussie menthol dries the sweet finish in the best sense, saving a stray into excess. " (04/2023) 93 points James Suckling: "This is a very good Adelaide Hills shiraz.

96 points James Suckling: "This is the wine of this cooler vintage. The temperature ebbs, peripatetic at times, seem to have disadvantaged those varieties that ripen very late. Here, there are firm but sinuous tannins. A briny nose, demur yet brimming with intent. Dried black olive, pithy and chewy. Iodine, darker fruits, charcuterie, pimento and white pepper, ground across a long skein of freshness, melding with the ferrous and almost gritty salt-crusted tannins. Reminiscent of a good Cornas, this is fine, savory, mid-weighted syrah. Drinkable now, but ...

Yet, it’s balanced and fresh with a warming finish. Generous yet firm. This needs food. Drink now." (11/2019) 91 points Wine Spectator: "Tightly built yet retains a sense of refinement, offering blackberry, stony mineral and spiced cinnamon flavors, finishing with slightly taut tannins.

93 points Int'l Wine Cellar: "Bright red-ruby. Black raspberry, flowers, minerals and spices on the nose, plus a hint of black walnut that reminded me of Hermitage. Juicy on entry, then sinewy and penetrating in the middle, and clearly less pliant and sweet today than the La Serenne. The dark fruit and bitter chocolate flavors are supported by obvious Red Mountain structure. For all its power, the minerally, spicy, peppery finish displays very fine-grained tannins and lovely subtle persistence. Actually a bit higher in pH than the La Serenne but this is ...

Muscular and broad-shouldered with a fluency of fibrous tannins, a tang of lip-smacking acidity and a gorgeous smoky violet finish.

Initially more reticent and Burgundian, this polished Syrah was aged in 60% new French oak before bottling. The wine shows beautiful red rose petals, nori, smoldering stones and orange blossom. The palate is exceedingly elegant with silky tannins and a light dusting of white pepper and salinity. Ripe strawberry, pomegranate seed and orange rind flavors combine with wet...

The medium-bodied palate is bright and chalky with restrained yet nuanced fruit and a long, latent finish. I would be inclined to drink it on the earlier side after a couple hours in a decanter, and its freshness will allow it to pair widely at the table." 91 points Vinous: "The 2021 Syrah (Santa Barbara County) is fabulous.

Full-bodied, powerful, and dense, with remarkable intensity, this is a supple wine that should be drinkable in 6-7 years, and last for 20-25 years. It is a remarkable achievement for the vintage.

Black colored, with an extraordinary perfume of licorice, sweet blackcurrants, smoke, and minerals, it coats the palate with layer upon layer of decadently rich, superconcentrated, nearly viscous Syrah flavors. There is amazing glycerin, a chewy, unctuous texture, and phenomenal length. The tannins, which are considerable when analyzed, are virtually obscured by the massive quantities of fruit.
