2021 Hubert Lamy, Bourgogne, Chataigners 6x75cl
As can be expected with Olivier's wines, there is tremendous minerality and spine of acidity in this focused, lean and precise Bourgogne Blanc. Even this entry level white requires plenty of patience... and will age beautifully. A proper introduction into Olivier's style, and if you wonder what the fuss is about, you owe it to yourself to pick up this 2021 Bourgogne Chataigners.

NV Exceptional Mixed Case Christmas 2023 6x75cl
1 x 75cl Bottle of 1995 Chateau Leoville-Las-Cases, 2eme cru classe St Julien “The 1995 and 1996 Las-Cases are both monumental wines and the former does not disappoint here. It has a spellbinding... nose of blackberry, cassis, melted tar and sous-bois with so much vibrancy and vivacity. The palate is full-bodied with succulent, rounded tannins, enormous depth and power. The finish is beautifully poised and minerally, much more feminine than the ’96. This is a Las-Cases with guile and grace, but it deserves at least 2 hours decanting to open up. Tasted February 2011.” 96 pts., Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate
1 x 75cl Bottle of 2017 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, Domaine Michel Magnien “Michel's 2017 Clos de la Roche, the most northerly of Morey-Saint-Denis` four grand cru vineyards is a sublime expression of the terroir, concentrated and powerful yet with this juicy trd fruit lifting the cocktail of cherries, liquorice, herbs and sandalwood. Absolutely gorgeous” Mr Wheeler Wine Tasting note
1 x 75cl Bottle of 2013 Hermitage, Domaine Jean-Louis Chave “Still in barrel at the time of this tasting, the 2013 Hermitage will certainly be one of the wines of the vintage. Offering classic, granite-induced notes of smoked dark fruits, graphite, searing minerality and bouquet garni, this sensational Hermitage has medium to full-bodied richness, beautiful mid-palate density and building tannin, all with the freshness and purity of the vintage. Reminiscent of a more backwards, tight, focused and granite-driven year (I asked Jean-Louis if there was a similar vintage he could recall, he commented that he couldn't think of one), it has solid ripeness in its aromas and flavors, good sweetness in its tannin, and a great finish. I suspect it will need 7-8 years of cellaring and keep for 20-25 years or more." 94-97 pts., Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com
1 x 75cl Bottle of 2017 Pouilly-Fume Silex, Domaine Didier Dagueneau “A legend of Pouilly-Fume, brainchild of the enfant terrible of French winemaking Didier Dagueneau, with his son continuing the excellent work since Didier's death in 2008. Expect stunning power and intensity with oodles of mineral, smiky notes and a solid spine of natural acidity. Sauvignon Blanc, but likely to be not as you know it!” Mr Wheeler Wine Tasting note
1 x 75cl Bottle of 2019 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Domaine Jean-Jacques Girard “In recent years with prices for the Grand Crus in Chassagne and Puligny absolutely rocketing, Corton-Charlemagne has become increasingly the best place to hunt if you are after some of the best whites of the Côte d'Or, and indeed some of the best whites in the world. This example from Domaine Jean-Jacques Girard showcases elegant complexity of honey, nuts and flowers, soft yellow-fleshed fruits and citrus. Every bit the Grand Cru in its intensity, complexity and persistence, this will be very fine indeed given 4 to 6 years in the bottle. ” Mr Wheeler Wine Tasting note
1 x 37.5cl Bottle of 2019 Chateau d'Yquem, Sauternes “"For certain, it has a highly-aromatic bouquet that is beguiling in purity, enticing aromas of honeysuckle and saffron, soon joined by camomile, white flowers and orange blossom. It has wonderful delineation and gains intensity with aeration. The palate is supremely well-balanced with fine bead of acidity. Very harmonious and armed with just the right amount of viscosity, this Yquem is surprisingly understated at first but gains presence, offering irresistible flavours of layers of honey, lemongrass, lemon thyme and orange pith. Yquem is so tempting in its youth, but I feel that this vintage will repay those with the nous to cellar for at least a decade.” 98 pts., Neal Martin, vinous.com

2018 Il Poggione, Brunello di Montalcino 6x75cl
"Impressive from the first tilt of the glass, the 2018 Brunello makes it a heady burst of exotic spice and crushed ashen stone giving way to black dried cherries and grilled herbs. This combines the... energy of the vintage with the dark balsamic tinged fruits from Montalcino’s southern reaches as zesty acidity maintains balance throughout, and flinty minerals saturated towards the close. It finishes long, long and structured, yet its tannins are more rounded than anticipated, creating a classic feel, but also a mouth watering sensation that tricks the taster back for more. Easily one of the top wines of the vintage, the 2018 is not to be missed." Drink 2026-2036

2022 Patrick Javillier, Bourgogne, Oligocene Blanc 6x75cl
“A team (and customers) favourite for many, many years, the Puligny-Meursault Oligocène blend demonstrates its breed once more; superb mid-palate weight, creamy with lifted citrus fruit, followed... by a long, minerally finish and just a hint of bitterness that will make this a dream to match with food. This is very special and retains its place as one of the very finest Bourgogne Blanc out there.” Drink 2025-2030

“A strong addition to our portfolio three vintage ago, Forgets continues to deliver Meursault class at highly sensible Bourgogne Blanc prices. The 2022 is beguiling with its hints of honeyed pear... and citrus notes throughout. Beautifully balanced and a great example of the 2022s approachability, this will not require you to be patient, as it will drink perfectly by the time it lands in the late Autumn. An unmissable Bourgogne Blanc!” Drink 2025-2027

2016 La Rioja Alta, Vina Arana Gran Reserva, Rioja 6x75cl
“The 2016 harvest is one of the highest quality I have seen, with a good level of volume. The vintage was characterised by perfect grapes and Viña Arana shows an immaculate balance between all... elements of the wine, showcasing the contemporary Gran Reserva style at La Rioja Alta, S.A. The nose stands out with its impressive aromatic intensity, and there is a great flavour concentration that will allow the wine to age for a very long time, and in a few years it will be superb.” Julio Saénz, head winemaker, La Rioja Alta

2012 Pierre Moncuit, Millesime Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut Grand Cru 6x75cl
Powerful and textured, the 2012 Blanc de Blancs from Moncuit follows in the footsteps of the superb 2008 vintage. Opulent on the nose with gorgeous lemon curd on toasted brioche with notes of ... hazelnut, a motif that follows through on the palate. An impressively rich and seductive Blanc de Blancs, and yet there is a gorgeous, minerally spine of acidity. Long and with a glorious future ahead for the next ten years or so.

2016 La Rioja Alta, Vina Ardanza Reserva, Rioja 6x75cl
"The 2016 Viña Ardanza Reserva was produced with 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha that matured in used American oak barrels for three years, where it was hand-racked from barrel to barrel six times... in the case of Tempranillo and five times for the Garnacha, as it had a slightly shorter élevage of 30 months. Against all odds, I found the 2016 to be fresher than the 2015 and less developed, despite the fact that winemaker Julio Sáenz told me he considers it a warmer year. But I have found many wines I like in 2016, and the wine feels very clean and quite harmonious, younger and less developed, with more primary notes and a velvety mouthfeel. 600,000 bottles produced. The wine was bottled in June 2020." 94+ pts., Luis Gutierrez, robertparker.com

2017 Taylor’s, Vintage Port 6x75cl
“The 2017 Taylor's Vintage Port comes from their three quintas: Vargellas, de Terra Feita and do Junco, picking commencing at Vargellas on September 1, the earliest since 1945. Now this boasts a... bold and more flamboyant bouquet vis-a-vis the Croft with layers of blackcurrant, blueberries, violet and allspice. Wonderful definition here and as it ratchets up through the gears with aeration manages to maintain impressive delineation. The palate is medium, rather full-bodied. The first impression is one of freshness, completely disguising that summer's dryness and warmth, a disarming finesse built around the frame of tannins that would have been impossible years ago. It is a silky-smooth Taylor's, one of the most polished 2017 Vintage Ports with energy and tension flooding through the finish. Aristocratic as ever, totally Taylor's, yet still translating the growing season with aplomb. Total production is 11,500 cases.” 98 pts., Neal Martin, vinous.com

2017 Croft, Quinta da Roeda Serikos Vintage Port 3x75cl
“The maiden 2017 Serikos from Croft comes from the oldest vines located in Quinta da Roeda. The name refers to the quinta's involvement in silk production and the texture of the wine. It was picked... from August 31 and was notable for the density of its musts from the thick-skinned grapes. Almost opaque in colour, it has a spellbinding bouquet of intense blackcurrant, crushed violet petals and later, star anis and camphor. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent tannin, a silver bead of acidity that slices through the multi-layered, intense black fruit laced with white pepper and sage. This is endowed with unerring symmetry, predictably a silky texture and outstanding crispiness towards the never-ending finish. Regal. Total production is 2,425 bottles.” 97 pts., Neal Martin, vinous.com

2017 Graham’s, Vintage Port 6x75cl
"The 2017 Graham's Vintage Port was picked from August 28 at Malvedos, though production is one-third less than the previous year. Here the Touriga Franca was particularly early ripening. It has an... expressive nose, a mélange of red and black fruit, fig jam, dates and touches of clove, aromatics that are very seductive if perhaps just missing the intellectual capacity of the Dow's. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple tannins, a gorgeous Graham's with hints of espresso and cloves that tincture the multi-layered fruit that veers towards black rather than red towards the finish that fans out without a care in the world. This is perhaps one of the more flamboyant Vintage Ports that is likely to drink earlier than the Dow's, yet that takes nothing away from what is a beautifully crafted Graham's. Total production is 5,250 cases." 95 pts., Neal Martin, vinous.com

2020 Petit-Figeac, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 6x75cl
“Gorgeous aromatic complexity on the nose, floral and bramble fruits. Juicy and so appealing on the palate, the tannins are chalky and fruity at the same time with a beautiful density and... liveliness. Lovely precision on the mid-palate, fruit forward, open, expressive and vibrant with so much freshness shining out of the glass. A joyful expression with mouthwateringly pure strawberry, redcurrant, raspberry and red cherry given structure and frame by touches of oak. I love the lick of slate on the finish with the minerality putting this squarely in St-Emilion. A lovely introduction to Figeac with its own personality. You can drink this now, but has potential to age. Keep a bottle to open when anyone comes over, this will impress!” 94 pts., Georgina Hindle, decanter.com

2020 Chateau Palmer 3eme Cru Classe, Margaux 6x75cl
"The 2020 Palmer, which was matured in 65% new oak, possesses one of the most perfumed bouquets of the vintage with entrancing, seductive scents of black cherries, wild strawberry, iodine and crushed... violets, all beautifully delineated (as per usual). The palate is medium-bodied with fine but quite firm tannins, lending this Palmer more backbone than presupposed. Blackberry, graphite and touches of liquorice develop with aeration that build towards an assertive, pencil box-tinged finish that nods towards Pauillac. This is a Palmer destined for long-term ageing, so readers should have a cool damp cellar handy. It is a serious Palmer, very different from the previous two vintages, not a mix of the two, but content in just being itself." 96-98 pts. Neal Martin, www.vinous.com

A lovely earthiness with nuances of cigar and tobacco leaf, forest floor, pepper corn and sweet red currant.
