Petite Sirah is a close relative to Syrah. Like Syrah, it is a dark-coloured grape that yields wines with floral aromas, deep colour and full, rich tannins. To moderate tannins, we fermented the grapes de-stemmed, as whole berries. Aging in twenty-five percent new oak over sixteen months has softened the wine.
*All prices in bond* 91 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Mid lemon yellow. The bouquet is a little tighter and tenser while the palate stretches out further than Sous Frétille. A more
complete wine in all departments this year, light fresh apples and a useful salinity. Much more persistent this year.
*All prices in bond* 89 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Mid lemon yellow. There is some energy to the bouquet but it is a little less fine than the village wine, more fruit than flowers but less elegant. Apples on the palate, no more than medium intensity and persistence.
A really beautiful example of Chardonnay from the Langhe. The wine is named after Angelo Gaja’s eldest daughter Gaia and her grandmother Clothilde Rey. We are the first UK merchant to have the 2021.

Chablis is an isolated island of vineyards in the northern section of wine-producing Burgundy halfway between Dijon and Paris. Maison Louis Latour's Chablis is the ultimate expression of what the noble Chardonnay grape is capable of on the region's famous kimmeridgian limestone slopes.
*All prices in bond* 89 Points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. Fresh pale lemon colour. The bouquet is beautifully typical of Pernand. Plenty of fruit here on the palate with a little bit of
flesh too. Ripe greengage and white fruit behind, and the right balance of acidity as well.
92 pts, Eric Guido, Vinous, July 2023. Rich and savory in the glass, the 2022 Bramito della Sala slowly opens to show hints f young peach and apricot, crushed rocks and hints of cardamon. This is silky yet lifted in feel with ripe white pit fruits complemented by hints of vailla bean and lemon custard.

Shafer’s single-vineyard Carneros-grown Chardonnay is produced from small-clustered clones of grapes selected for their low yields and distinctive flavors. Fermentation takes place within individual oak and stainless steel barrels using native yeasts.
“The 2019 vintage of Las Pizarras Chardonnay shines with its bright yellow-straw colour with beautiful green hues. On the nose, it delivers notes of citrus fruits, complemented by some floral touches framed by soft tones of almonds and a delicate note of honey.
