"The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Sugarille keeps me coming back to the glass again and again" Eric Guido
La Cumbre represents Viña Errázuriz’s pioneering spirit when it introduced the Syrah variety to Chile in 1993. Aged for 22 months in French oak barrels, 60% new and 15% Stockinger foudres, it is 96% Syrah and 4% Viognier
90-93, Allen Meadows, Burghound. Tasted: Jan 10, 2024. An admirably discreet dollop of wood is present on the spicier broad-ranging nose of red and black pinot fruit, plum and exotic tea scents.
*All prices in bond* 88-92 pts, 4 stars, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy A light green tint in the colour, with a fresh and floral nose, as always with a touch of lime blossom. Fine energy on the palate without putting on too much flesh, indeed medium bodied, quite an elegant hillside Meursault. Drink from 2026-2031.
This cuvée is open and expressive. It shows fresh flavours of apricot and white peach on the nose with hawthorn undertones. On the palate the citrus notes come through with precision and are balanced by the richness of the fruit flavours.
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier
92-94 pts Richard Juhlin: "The wine is almost completely dominated by the extremely exciting and rare Tauxières Premier Cru, which is one of two villages classified 99% on the Grand Cru scale. Despite an impressive vineyard area of 237 hectares, it is extremely rare to come across champagnes dominated by this fantastic Cru.
Complex and, therefore, intriguing...
TO THE EYE: The Brut Réserve boasts a deep golden hue. Delicate, vivacious and long-lasting bubbles are the result of a long, slow maturing process in chalk cellars.
"A lot of expectations are built around tasting this maiden release of Gaja’s Etna Rosso, the first from Angelo and Gaia Gaja’s new project on the island of Sicily.
95/100, Greg Sherwood MW, A Fine Wine Safari. "Meerlust Rubicon is undoubtedly one of South Africa’s greatest wine ambassadors. If you have not tasted it yet, you are indeed missing out on one of the great Bordeaux blends produced in the Cape."
*DUTY PAID PRICING FOR CASE OF 12* The inaugral 160th Hospices de Beaune Christies auction. 2020 harvest of the best wine of Burgundy.
This wine comes from the most prized plot of the San Polo estate: the two-hectare vineyard Vignavecchia. It is produced from 30 to 40-year-old vines located on a steep, western-facing slope. The soil is poor with a calcareous and limestone composition, adding to the intensity and complexity of this wine with potential for lengthy ageing.
