Tilled soil, ripe plum, blue iris and a whiff of spice come together on the nose. The vibrant, juicy palate offers ripe wild cherry, crushed raspberry, mocha and clove alongside fine-grained tannins. Drink through 2018.

Villemaurine is located not far from the village of St. Emilion. Jammy berries, licorice, spice, pepper and plum scents pop from the glass. Lush and round, this concentrated, ripe wine is loaded with sweet, jammy black cherries and fennel. This is the finest wine I've ever tasted from this property -The Wine Cellar Insider - 91

Dark ruby red color with aromas of black cherry, black plum, tobacco, hints of oak, and mocha. Rich in texture, with a mouth full of black cherry fruit, rich plush tannin, and roasted oak that is well integrated and balanced.

Chocolate, raspberry jam, cloves, licorice and sweet French oak emerge from the 2009 Arnione, a Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot/Petit Verdot blend. In keeping with the style of the year, the 2009 is ripe, racy and exuberant, all of which suggest the Arnione is best enjoyed sooner rather than later. There is plenty of Bolgheri personality in this flavorful, fleshy red.

In spite of the cult status of this small winery which produces some of the most outstanding wines of the northern Rhone, its owners keep a low profile, and the appearance of the facility is obviously of little concern to them. Starting 30 years yers ago, the winery was one of the first to follow a low-intervention, additives-less vinification.

Lovely citrus and pear notes combined with a hint of apple pie baking make our 2011 Brut a classic charmer. Palate shows an array of fruit nuances highlighting pineapple and pear. This wine is finely balanced with tiny bubbles, creating a creamy sensation on the palate and a rewarding finish.

Exhibiting classy cassis, toasted bread, creamy licorice and loads of spice, this medium to full-bodied, concentrated and ripe Pinot Noir has solid mid-palate depth and a great texture.

This wine is pure, organic, single-vineyard estate Caberne Sauvignon—not a statement that can be made by many! Much darker in the glass than previous vintages, the ‘13 draws you in,with aromas of dark fruit,smoked meats, and garrigue. The sumptuous palate is full of cassis, dark cherries, flowers, and savory herbs, rounded out by well-tuned, fine-grained tannins.

Made in large-enough quantities to be widely available, as well as at a rare price point for the appellation, this is a bit of a find. Juicy in red-fruit tones yet supported by drying tannins, this is pleasurably perplexing, with a hint of mint on the nose. Full bodied, it finishes with tobacco and fig. Cellar through 2020 .Cellar Selection

Graceful, with fragrant orange blossom, ruby grapefruit and white peach flavors that are fresh and lively, set on a light, lithe body. Appealing lime zest and passion fruit accents show on the long finish.

Super-concentrated nose of blackberry, kirsch, moist tobacco, subtle incense and sandalwood really light up the senses. The 2013 equally delivers on the palate, with density, persistence, structure and superb concentration of flavor. This is a prodigious wine. The stuffing on this will allow it to age beyond any of our lifetimes.

Its straw yellow color with faint greenish highlights leads us into a floral fragrance of wisteria and a fruity sensation of green apples. The flavour is dry, with good acidity, and it is persistent and delicately mineral.
