From a lieu dit planted in 1986 on Bathonian limestone mixed with pebbles. Native yeast fermentation with no additions, natural malo, and no battonage. Aged in approx. 20-30% new oak for 17 month. The wines produced by Les Corbins tend to have rich texture with the classic weight of Meursault.

Gavi is named for the town which is the epicenter of the region. Its development as a viticultural district is attributed to the aristocratic, merchant, families of Genoa who built their summer homes there. These family dynasties were the first to isolate the white Cortese grape. Flower essence, key lime and lime rind, yellow apple, papaya and green mango.

Smooth and lush, the 2013 B.R. Cohn Gold Label Cabernet Sauvignon comes to the fore with a delectable roundness that makes it charming and accessible. The wine's black fruit flavors, nice touch of oak, and generous palate textures make it a delicious choice with a well-marbled Porterhouse steak. 90 Points, Wilford Wong

Made by Brian Rudin and a beautiful wine anyway you look at it, the 2013 Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon (there’s 9% Merlot and 3% Malbec) is a full-bodied, ripe, layered effort that has terrific notes of loamy earth, truffle, wild herbs and assorted black fruits. Aged 16 months in 40% new oak. It will cellar for more than a decade.

This Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc blend is alluring and sophisticated; it is memorably lush with a tapestry of smooth tannins and succulent flavors of wild berries, plum and anise.

n a port tasting, tasting Graham's is almost like tasting a big, rich, succulent Merlot after a group of blockbuster, tannic Cabernets. Sweeter and more obvious than many ports, the opaque purple-colored 1994 is fruity, powerful, and rich, with an addictive hedonistic quality. It will be ready to drink in 8-10 years and keep for up to 30.

Enticing scents of blue flower, red berry, sandalwood and a whiff of new leather emerge on this glossy red. The bright, silky palate doles out juicy Marasca cherry, raspberry and star anise while fresh acidity and polished tannins provide the framework.

This Pinot Noir jumps out of the glass - with lively red fruits on the nose, and flavors of cherry, red fruits, spice, minerals. The finish is long with depth and richness characteristic of a great vintage.

Enjoy this Pinot Noir with a meal of your choosing - it really is quite the chameleon in the kitchen.

In May 2014, Jean-Baptiste Adam and his family celebrated the 400th anniversary of their family being grape growers and winemakers in Alsace, France. Through the centuries family members have been leaders in their community. Now, Jean-Baptiste can count himself among the leaders of biodynamic farming in Alsace.

2016 is the second vintage of this wine from Scholium. This vintage is quite light in body with a kind of bright, translucent, cherry red in color. It is deliciously fresh and fragrant-- everything is about what happens quickly and up front in this vintage. Close your eyes; it is white wine from Lodi.

A dense but violet hue, leading with black cherry, blueberry, and raspberry on the nose. I find notes of black tea, dried orange rind, and graphite balance the fruit on the nose, and evolve into blackberry and bramble. The mouthfeel is lush and velvet, with fine tannins. There is an element of slate along with cardamom and anise that leads to intriguing elements as it opens.

Grandson of Sassicaia founder Mario Incisa della Rocchetta ended up in Patagonia after tasting a bottle of Pinot Noir he fell in love with, 60 year-old, head pruned vines in the Rio Negro Valley of Patagonia. Beautiful, bright and nuanced expression of Pinot Noir, with succulent fruit and elegant texture. An eye opener for the potential of Pinot Noir in northern Patagonia.
