Christophe Lindenlaub "EleFanta Orange" Alsace Auxerrois 2018
91+
Our Score
(9/2020) Fun, delicious and unique while maintaining its Old World character, Christophe Lindenlaub has delighted us again with his take on an orange Alsatian wine. 100% Auxerrois from limestone and clay soils is macerated with the skins for eighteen days followed by nine months of aging in used oak demi-muids before an unfiltered bottling, resulting in its bright orange hue. The nose is exuberant and aromatic, like holding a handful of loose black tea up to your face, supplemented by juicy mandarin and apricot. Its citrus flavors are framed by refreshing acidity and subtle tannins, finishing with depth and poise. A pleasure!

Ridge "Lytton Springs" Dry Creek Valley Red 2018
96
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2020) "The 2018 Lytton Springs is magnificent. Elegant, layered and so complete, the 2018 has a lot to offer, but it needs time to fully come together. Sweet red cherry, red plum, blood orange, spice, mint and rose petal open up in the glass. Bright acids and beams of tannin give the wine its vibrant energy. Readers should plan on cellaring the 2018 for at least a few years. Wow! Drinking window: 2026 - 2048"

Desparada "Sackcloth & Ashes" Central Coast Proprietary Red 2018
91
Wine Advocate
(10/22/2020) "The 2018 Sackcloth & Ashes is a blend of 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Petit Verdot, 23% Cabernet Franc and 8% Malbec, aged in 27% new French oak. Deep ruby-purple, it's deeply scented of cassis, tar, bay leaves and bitter chocolate, with more nuance after some time in the glass. The full-bodied palate offers concentrated, broody fruits with a grainy frame, finishing with just enough freshness. 638 cases produced. Drink Date: 2020 - 2028"

Jeb Dunnuck
(8/4/2020) "Brought up in 20% new French oak, the 2018 Chardonnay Los Alamos reveals a light gold hue as well as a beautiful bouquet of stone fruits, toasted bread, almond paste, and honeysuckle. Beautifully textured, medium to full-bodied, and seamless on the palate, it's a gorgeous Chardonnay as well as a brilliant value!"

Walter Hansel "Cuvee Alyce" Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2018
95
Wine Advocate
(9/24/2020) "The 2018 Chardonnay Cuvée Alyce opens slowly to lovely aromas of warm peaches and apricots with accents of toast, roasted almonds and honey. The medium-bodied palate is silky, super concentrated, layered and fresh, cut through with uplifting mineral character and finishing very, very long. Gorgeous! 1,154 cases produced."

Kelley Fox "Barbie" Willamette Valley Pinot Blanc 2019
93
Vinous, Josh Raynolds
(6/2020) "Translucent straw-yellow. Fresh peach, pear nectar, mango and hints of honey and orange zest on the deeply perfumed nose. Pliant and broad on entry and then more taut on the mid-palate, offering juicy pit and orchard fruit flavors and a bracing touch of bitter orange pith. Finishes extremely long and silky, with lingering floral and spice flourishes. The blend of richness and energy here is really impressive. Drinking window: 2020 - 2024"

Ridge "Pagani Ranch" Sonoma Valley Zinfandel 2018
95
Jeb Dunnuck
95
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2020) "The 2018 Zinfandel Pagani Ranch is superb. A burst of sweet red/purplish fruit, exotic spice, flowers and blood orange fleshes out in a Zinfandel of tremendous class. The Pagani has a level of textural breadth and resonance that separates it from most wines in this range. It also has a bit more new oak than the other wines here, but that should not be an issue in time. Bold, creamy and sensual, the Pagani just hits all the right notes. I wouldn't touch a bottle anytime soon. Readers who can find it will own a small piece of history, as Pagani is one of the most pedigreed vineyard sites in the United States. The blend is 84% Zinfandel, 9% Alicante Bouschet and 7% Petite Sirah."

Torres "Salmos" Priorat 2016
92
Wine Spectator
(10/15/2020) "Earthy and mineral notes frame a core of plum and wild herb flavors in this thick red. Firm tannins and balsamic acidity support the dense texture. Subtle, savory and intense. Carignan, Grenache and Syrah. Drink now through 2030. 891 cases imported."

Ettore Germano "Alta Langa" Brut 2014
87
Wine Advocate
(9/25/2018) "A blend of 80% Pinot Nero and 20% Chardonnay, the 2014 Alta Langa Metodo Classico Brut opens to a faded copper hue that accents the golden luminosity of this Italian classic-method sparkling wine. The wine is steely and sharp in delivery with a streak of sour fruit that is cutting and edgy on the finish. That sharpness is a bit excessive. The Chardonnay component is fermented in oak, and the Pinot Nero is fermented in stainless steel. The wine ages on the lees for 30 months. Some 15,000 bottles were made."

Castellare di Castellina "Il Poggiale" Chianti Classico Riserva 2017
93
Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2020) "The 2017 Chianti Classico Riserva Il Poggiale is engaging from start to finish. Dark cherry, plum, spice, cedar, licorice and tobacco are some of the notes that flesh out as the 2017 sits in the glass. Here, too, winemaker Alessandro Cellai captures a striking interplay between the overtness of the year and the classicism of Sangiovese and Chianti Classico."
