Domaine Ninot, Rully 1er Cru Gresigny 2018 – White Burgundy from the Côte Chalonnaise 90 points – Wine Enthusiast “Notes of hay and ripe stonefruit on the nose of this wine come with a zesty edge of ripe lemon. The palate at first continues that citric freshness edged with wood smoke, then fleshes out the…

La Font de Notre Dame, Lirac 2017 – 90 points – Wine Advocate “The soft, supple 2017 Lirac boasts super ripe aromas of cherries, raspberries and apricots. A blend of 70% Grenache, 25% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre fermented and matured in concrete, it’s medium to full-bodied, seductive and mouthwatering. Drink 2019-2025.”- Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate

Domaine Testut, Chablis Vieilles Vignes 2018 “There is a whiff of exotic fruit character to the apple, pear, melon and quinine-inflected nose. The well-detailed and solidly voluminous flavors possess good verve before concluding in a nicely dry, focused and sneaky long finish. This will drink well early as well as reward 3 to 6 years of…

Pierre Gaillard St. Joseph Blanc 2018 –  93 points – Wine Advocate “The orange-scented, truffled, honey-laden 2018 Saint Joseph Blanc has that “it” factor. Full-bodied, rich and silky, it’s harmonious and exotic, with ample concentration and length. It should provide delicious drinking over the next few years, perhaps longer. Drink 2019 – 2023.”- Joe Czerwinski,…

Pago de los Abuelos, Bierzo, Spain, Vinas Centenarias Godello 2018 – 90 points – Wine Enthusiast “Aromas of melon and apple lead to a plump, fleshy feel in this rich Godello. Creamy pear chimes in on the palate alongside schist and honey. “- Michael Schachner, Wine Enthusiast

Domaine Testut, Chablis Grand Cru Grenouille 2016 – 93 pts. – Burghound “(from a .32 ha parcel; note that Testut uses a different spelling for the vineyard as they do not use the more typical “Grenouilles”; bottled November 2017). A distinctly cool and restrained nose somewhat grudgingly offers up notes of dried orchard fruit, oyster shell,…

Couly-Dutheil, Les Chanteaux 2017  “A chalk soil vineyard offers the opportunity to make this rich and fruity wine. Pineapple and melon mingle easily with citrus flavors to give a wine that is superripe although tempered with acidity and a fresh aftertaste. Drink from late 2019.”- Wine Enthusiast
