Do Ferreiro
Cepas Vellas Rías Baixas Albariño do Ferreiro 2019
Fabulous bottling. Singular exemplar of what albariño can do at the highest level. Tightrope between grassy, herbaceous Sauvignon blanc opening & smoky Riesling finish. Reminds you why albariño was thought to be a Riesling clone. Zippy acid, lime, smoky apple fruit, fabulous texture and long penetrating finish. 200 y/o vines. 😍 — 10 days ago

Château Belair (Dubois-Challon)
St. Émilion 1er Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2005
With Camerons. One bottle duff. The other opening up nicely between hour 3 and 4 of opening, thereafter wonderful. — 4 days ago
Cibonne
Côtes de Provence "Cru Classe" Rouge Tibouren 2020
Much hyped as one of the best Rose out there. More orange in colour than pink. Pretty much the classic nose and what you would expect. There is a very pleasant salty minerality at the beginning that sadly went away. In the end i think the difference between a good, bad and excellent Rose will always be minimal. I do like a Rose but paying anything over €15 seems like a waste of money — 2 days ago

Desire Lines' Riesling Cole Ranch is racy and rich in 2020. Lemon confit orchard fruit, jasmine and light tropical accents are front and center. I suppose the 2020 is perhaps a bit less varietal than it can be, but soft, creamy contours more than compensate. The 2020 is a delicious wine to enjoy over the coming years.
