Domaine Bertrand Bachelet
Maranges has got to be one of the best value wines in Burgundy, and one of her best secrets. In the hands of a great producer as Bertrand Bachelet it only goes to extend these opinions. A striking nose, with an aroma of red fruit, blackcurrant. Lovely tannic structure, peppery notes and hint of florality.

Alemany I Corrio
Crisp white fruit and apricot nose with a light nutty element and a Meursault-esque butteriness. Dry, soft but fresh acidity. A lovely depth of mineral laced, grassy white fruit with hints of apricot and nuts. Xarel-lo 100% Producer Profile In the little town of Vilafranca del Penedes in Cataluña, Irene and Laurent are challenging the traditional perception of DO Penedes wine. Converting their vineyards from the typical Penedes high yields and abandoning all forms of chemical treatment and fertilisers, they follow basic organic practices. Much of the construction and equipping of their cellar was modest and homemade, including building their own tanks. Production remains small, yet as they identify further small vineyard sites their range has extended to include distinctive wines from the indigenous varietal Xarel-lo, which they choose to do extended fermentation with, using indigenous yeast and it is then left on its lees to increase the richness and compexity. Viticulture With vines trained gobelet style, the vineyards are approximately 45 years old, on clay and limestone soils, yielding approximately 4000 kg / Ha. Practicing lutte raisonnée. Winemaking Vinification in 228l and 700l french oak barrels, fermented with wild yeast, after fermentation 2/3 parts are aged in 700 litre French oak barrels and 1/3 parts in stainless steel.

Patrick Javillier
For many years, Patrick has isolated his generic vineyards that sit on limestone for this cuvée. From these 0.75 hectares, the domaine produces an unusually complex Bourgogne Blanc, in the mould of a Puligny-Montrachet. The nose is expressive, elegant and powerful with notes of white and yellow fruits, succulent flowers and touches of toast. On the palate, the wine displays fine balance and a lovely body with crisp acidity. The same aromas are found as on the nose. This is an expressive and fresh wine with a long finish.

From the Puligny side of the generic land, this carries 35 percent new oak and has a defined, clear Puligny style, with tight fruit and a kernel of nuttiness. Neatly made, it has substance for a Bourgogne Blanc – indeed, it’s as good as a village Puligny at other addresses.

Devaux

From Patrick Javillier's website: Terroir: Orientated south-south east the soil cover is deep with some clay. The bottom of the parcel contains a lot of rock head. This lieu-dit is located on the Volnay hill, where the soil is generally known to be quite rich with clay and little stone. Tasting notes: On the nose this wine shows character with yellow fruit aromas -pear and apple -also found in the mouth: supple and very fresh, harmonious, pleasant and persistent. It is a classic Meursault and a great wine for ageing. Serving suggestion: If the wine is consumed young, serve with shellfish, cold terrines or potted meat and white meat; after 5 to 7 years, with foie gras, blue cheese and goat's cheese.

Patrick Javillier
Patrick Javillier is a perfectionist. He vinifies parcel by parcel giving the wine its concentration and richness. Raspberry and vanilla go hand-in-hand on the nose. Supple, fresh, this wine is discreet and accessible in its youth. Les Grands Liards is located at the foot of the hillside with a clay and limestone soil rich in pebbles. Asian style beef will be enhanced by this Red Savigny-Lès-Beaune.

Patrick Javillier
The Les Tillets has a finesse, powerful style and matures for 18 months in new and used oak barrels. The nose is expressive with aromas of white fruit blossom, yellow and white fruit and a slight spiciness with some toast. Round, lively in the mouth, with an aromatic freshness of citrus and yellow fruit, with some nutty aromas in the end. This is a very delicate wine with a long finish and an underlying robustness and its style can be... described as between a classic Meursault and a typical Puligny-Montrachet.

Cielo e Terra
Amarone is made by allowing the grapes to partially dry and shrivel for up to 120 days, usually on straw mats. (This process is called appassimento or rasinate (to dry and shrivel) in Italian). This concentrates the remaining sugars and flavours, giving a rich and deep wine, with intense red fruits and a juicy palate. Some oak ageing increases structure and imparts subtle warmth and body.

Zorah
The vineyard is located in Vayotz Dzor, which is historically known as the most prestigious wine region in Armenia. This is a wine for those who think they have tried everything! The palate reflects the exotic nose with hints of soft red fruits, dried mountain herbs and wild earth. Generous and soft, with balanced, full-bodied structure and mature tannins before a long, evolved mineral finish.

Danbury Ridge
Something of Pouilly-Fuisse in the style here, a banana-custard rich nose, but on the palate linear, mineral and refined. Elegant, broad and complex, so unlike other English chardonay. Super-premium estate sited in the warmest, driest corner of England, near the coast and Malden (of posh salt fame). This south-facing ridge enjoys an exceptionally long warm growing season - so rare in England. Our old friend John Atkinson, Master of Wine, who is an expert on cool-climate viticulture, is enthusiastically involved. Winemaker is Liam Idzikowski who boasts long experience in English wine-making; backed by owners the Bunker family, the winery is an astonishing no-expense-spared jewel in the crown for English wine.

Duckhorn Vineyards
Lush, energetic and intense, this gorgeous Cabernet begins with aromas of blackberry, huckleberry and chocolate, as well as hints of mint, cardamom, clove and graham cracker. On the palate it displays lovely brightness, with firm, resolved tannins framing flavors of boysenberry and black currant. As it evolves in the glass, subtle sweet and savory notes are revealed, carrying the wine to a long, focused finish. Duckhorn have been producing Cabernet Sauvignon since 1978. Blending fruit from estate vineyards and top Napa Valley growers, this wine embodies the complexity of the valley, while offering a seamless balance between fruit, oak and tannins. To add nuance, the Cabernet is blended with Merlot, yielding a wine that is approachable in its youth, yet worthy of cellaring.

Domaine de Triennes
The pale colour, vibrant strawberry fruit and refreshing finish make this perfect for a sunny afternoon, but there is hidden depth here. Subtle spice notes and a juicy mid-palate make it ideal for spiced food; its cleansing acidity and stony texture pair beautifully with salads and cold cuts. Domaine de Triennes was founded in 1989 by two superstars of Burgundy, Jacques Seyss of Domaine Dujac and Aubert de Villaine of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. This estate, high up in the hills of the Var region of Provence, is fast establishing itself as one of the finest in the region. Situated deep in truffle country, vines have been grown here for two thousand years. The name of the estate comes from the triennia, the festivities held in honour of Bacchus that took place every three years in Roman times. This 40 hectare domaine boasts a range of grape varieties including Syrah, Viognier, Carignan, Cinsault, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The cool nights and slow ripening produces top quality fruit that is shaped into ripe but extremely elegant wines by Jacques's talented son, Jeremy, who runs the estate.Domaine de Triennes have an organic Ecocert certification.

Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou
As of 2019, the former Lalande-Borie wine is now Le Petit Ducru, a third wine of the wonderful Ch Ducru-Beaucaillou in Saint-Julien. Le Petit Ducru is from young vines because so much of the former Lalande-Borie site is being replanted, but still shows both austerity and power, with crunchy bright fruit, and is extremely good quality. Gourmet edging with chocolate shavings and black pepper spice, the tannins are fine but they close in more strongly on the finish.

Dom. Lafond Roc-Epine
"Dark crimson. Very sweet, heady and heavy, almost porty! Quite harsh tannins. Seems like a cuvée speciale style. Compote of black cherries. Dramatic but rather old style. Mind you, it finishes clean and fresh. Well-done version of a certain style." 17.5, Jancis Robinson. Drink 2020-2030
