Domaine Marcel Lapierre "Raisins Gaulois Cuvee XII" Beaujolais Vin de France 2018 3.0 LT
89
Vinous, Josh Raynolds
(9/2019) "Lurid violet. Bright and racy on the nose and palate, showing fresh red berry and bitter cherry character and subtle bitter herb and spicy nuances. Shows good clarity and spicy bite on the nicely persistent finish, which betrays just a hint of fine-grained tannins."

Thibaud Boudignon "Clos de la Hutte" Savennieres 2018
This epic, mammoth, mind-bending wine left us speechless!
95+
Our Score
(8/2020) This is the most powerfully concentrated Chenin Blanc we have ever tasted. Thibaud believes "Clos De La Hutte" - a storied walled vineyard with a monastic history - to be among the very best vineyard sites in all of Savennieres. Wines of such incredibly immense power are not defined by alcohol but rather by deeply layered flavor and mouth presence. Like a young Grand Cru Burgundy, this newly released white is very tight at this stage. Even with that being the case, the concentration of material is extraordinarily evident. We were knocked out by beautiful flavors of yellow and red fruit, tobacco flower, jasmine and sea spray. All of this, on top of an ethereal base of saline and chalky mineral tension. We suggest allowing at least three years in the cellar, then enjoying over the following decade or more. If you can't resist the urge to wait, allow this the entire afternoon in a decanter!

Ayoub Vineyard Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2018
90
Our Score
(8/2020) A seductive nose of red fruits, ripe cherries, and baking spice. On the palate, there is a great mouth coating texture, with a savory, silky smooth finish. Mo Ayoub's wines are a pleasure to drink when they are young, but short term cellaring really brings the wine together. 380 cases produced.

Patricia Green Cellars Olenik Vineyard "Anklebreaker Block" Pinot Noir 2018
"The Anklebreaker moniker is a visual description of the ground this part of the vineyard is planted in. The basalt boulders, rocks and stones in the section of the vineyard are part of a long ago land slide from further up the embankment and they give the block a visual similarity to vineyards in Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Somehow, the name seems to also convey the style of wine to expect and it delivers. This is a broad-shouldered Pinot Noir with deep and very dark fruit flavors. It is years away from any sort of peak, but certainly provides satisfaction at the big-boy level in the short run. Of all the wines in this very diverse cellar this is the most about the place that fruit comes from style of Pinot Noir. It was born to plants in a difficult and hard environment and the wine is not easy and maybe not for everybody but it is distinct, interesting and a great connection to the soils."

(4/2020) This wine blew us away! Over the course of multiple days, it just got better and better. Serious structure and rocky minerality are at the core. After a large amount of oxygen exposure, the deep, delicious and powerful fruit flavors are impossible to miss. A big-time Oregon Pinot Noir, this is one of the best we've had! Drinking like a true Grand Cru, the 2018 Anklebreaker Block will definitely benefit from a few years of aging. Only 156 cases were produced. Thanks to our relationship with the winery, we are able to offer a small number of cases available of this rare, hard-to-find-wine.

Envinate "Albahra" Vino de Mesa Alicante 2018
90
Our Score
(1/2020) Made from 70% Garnacha Tinorera (Alicante Bouschet) and 30% Moravia Agria, Envinate's "Albahra" is a wine that delivers the goods every vintage at a remarkable value. Given the ratio of red-fleshed Alicante Bouschet, one might expense this to be another dense, heavy Spanish red, yet there is quite a bit of lift here, with delicate floral and mineral qualities to back up its juicy red fruit and Mediterranean spice. Its heft is perfectly balanced with its fresh acidity, making it a versatile food wine, but a particularly great pairing with roasted meats and well-spiced seafood. Unfined and unfiltered.

Lewis Cellars Chardonnay Napa Valley 2018
Winemaker's Notes
"Like a silk robe or satin sheets our 2018 Napa Chardonnay seduces with thrilling texture. Creamy pear, creme brulee, white nectarine and gardenia blossom sprinkled with vanilla spice, it is simply delicious and irresistible. Finely structured yet opulent to the core, it is graced with a long, luscious finish."

Massican "Hyde Vineyard" Napa Valley Chardonnay 2018
94
Wine Enthusiast
(9/1/2019) "From the famous site in Carneros, the block sourced by the producer consists of Musque clone Chardonnay, planted in the early 1990s and a portion of it also goes into his Annia white blend. Opening in a whiff of confection, it offers steely acidity and a textured taste of lemon rind, grapefruit and white peach, layered and balanced in every sense of the word."

Turley "Pesenti Vineyard" Paso Robles Zinfandel 2018
Winemaker's Notes
"This certified organic estate-owned vineyard was planted in the 1920's on primarily limestone soil. Though the vines are head-trained and dry-farmed, the soil plays the most important role in distinguishing this vineyard on the west side of Paso Robles. The wines have a brightness, with chalk and floral aromas unique to the site, and to Zinfandel in general."
