9.3

A lusher, more muscular side of Volnay. The florals that one associates with the commune are there, but so is a shock of brambly red fruit and bright stone. — 8 years ago

9.1

Fine edged with a haunting, almost chinato-like herbalness. Got better as we went, coming into focus after 30 minutes or so. — 7 years ago

9.3

Shows that Prosecco can be as delicious as any sparkling wine without trying to be anything but what it is: rivetingly fresh and lively with lots of Meyer lemon and saline notes. — 8 years ago

The most beguiling Mencia creature I've encountered. Vibrant, tortured, strange. — 8 years ago

9.2

Well integrated, polished tannins. Lacking detail and energy at this age; clear fruit expression still eddying beneath the oak. — 7 years ago

Guímaro

8.8

A confident wine. One I like quite a bit. Its purity is offset by a challenging depth of damp earth and herbs that has me reminiscing about the first time I tried Cabernet franc from the Loire. — 8 years ago
