Vinous, Ian D'Agata
(8/2019) "Deep red. Pungent floral aromas of red rose, quinine, cinnamon, red cherry and minerals. Then juicy and fresh, with real floral lift to the sour red cherry and dried berry flavors. Finishes long with zingy acidity. Another knockout Frappato from Arianna Occhipinti."

Bodegas and Vinedos Raul Perez La Vizcaina "La Vitoriana" Bierzo 2016

Wine Advocate
(2/28/2019) "The vines at La Vitoriana are from a north-facing part of the vineyard and are extremely old, and the grapes show their best between 13% and 13.5% alcohol. The maceration of the 2016 La Vizcaina La Vitoriana is the longest of all wines from La Vizcaina wines, and it always has very strong balsamic notes. It's subtle and elegant with a velvety texture, with lots of energy and inner strength. Perez selects about half of the vineyard, and he feels 2016 is the year that best represents the character of the place. I'd add it's probably the best vintage so far. 3,000 bottles produced. Drink 2019 - 2026."

Red Newt Cellars "Lahoma Vineyards - The Knoll" Finger Lakes Riesling 2014

Vinous, Kelli White
(7/2016) "An extraordinary wine, this is Finger Lakes dry Riesling at its finest. The nose is an exotic combination of kefir lime, lemon candy, mint, and thyme. The palate is just as expressive as the nose, offering a perfect balance between flesh and acid-rather than one swelling as the other dwindles, they march in sync from entry through to finish. A wine of remarkable intensity and purity, the 2014 The Knoll concludes with an epic finish of tremendous mineral depth. 5 grams per liter residual sugar. Drinking window: 2016 - 2031."

Domaine Fournier-Longchamps "Le Parc" Savennieres 2015

Decanter World Wine Awards
(2018) "Silver-green in colour, with still-youthful aromas of green plum, fresh grape and mossy wells; there's just a whisper of honey. The aromas are harmonious but under-stated at present, and will certainly blossom with a year or two's more age. On the palate, this dry Savennieres has great length and breadth of flavour: Chenin Blanc at is most structured, vinous and chewy. It's perfectly balanced and poised: a fine choice for those who love to cellar the wines of this grand yet enigmatic appellation. 2018-2028. Best in Show"

Massican Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Wine Enthusiast
(9/1/2019) "For his own label, Larkmead winemaker Dan Petroski looks to northern Italy for inspiration, sourcing from Napa Valley vineyards he admires (ones with the warmest days and coolest nights) to produce this 100% varietal beauty. Robustly fruity and flinty, it shows apricot, lemongrass, wet stone and wraparound acidity that buzzes in freshness."

(9/1/2019) "Made from 48% Tocai Friulano, 41% Ribolla Gialla and 11% Chardonnay, this is fresh and floral in tones of lemon rind, white flower and green apple.

Luiano Chianti Classico Riserva 2015

Wine Spectator
(12/31/2018) "Highly Recommended - A fresh, detailed style, exhibiting cherry, black currant, licorice, leather and iron aromas and flavors. This firms up as the latent structure emerges on the finish, yet the lasting impression is of equilibrium and sweet, ripe fruit. Best from 2020 through 2038."

(6/5/2019) "A deep well of cherry, plum, floral, wild thyme and iron aromas and flavors highlight this complex, vibrant red, which is beautifully balanced and taut, with firm, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity that will allow this to age gracefully. Best from 2021 through 2045."
