Bodega Chacra Chardonnay 2021, 0.75L
Chardonnay from Río Negro, Patagonia
"This has a complex yet refined nose of sliced apples, peach pits, smoked almonds, wet stones, chalk and white pepper. Hints of beeswax, juniper and cedar, too. It’s medium-bodied, elegant and light-footed, yet powerful, too. Creamy layers of stones and stone fruit slowly evolve to blanched almonds and nougat. Very long and precise. Try this from 2024. From biodynamically grown grapes." 98 Points, James Suckling

Bodega Chacra Chardonnay Mainqué 2021, 0.75L
Chardonnay from Río Negro, Patagonia
“The 2021 Mainqué Chardonnay is the second white here, produced by Jean-Marc Roulot from 40-year-old ungrafted vines in Mainqué in the Lunita property (where they regrafted the vines to Chardonnay), where they work with cover crops, no chemicals, and bees. It fermented with indigenous yeasts, 70% in French oak barrels and 10% each in clay, concrete egg and stainless steel, and it matured for nine months, 70% in barrel and 10% each in concrete and stainless steel. It has the precision and purity of Roulot, which to a certain extent is the result of thorough work with the press. ‘He sent us the press program,’ Piero told me. ‘And we now have two presses. We are learning.’ When I thought about what was in common between the reds and the whites, I came up with three words: precision, purity and elegance. It has notes of white flowers and a touch of fennel and other aromatic herbs. It was harvested early in the morning and in the season, and the wine is light and refreshing, ethereal, weightless and with purity and precision. It's a delight. It was bottled in December 2021.” 94 Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate
"Fresh apricots, white strawberries, cream, crushed stones and lemon meringue on the nose. Subtle spice, such as anise, white pepper and lemon grass. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a textured, phenolic palate. Very fresh and focused with persistency and tense layers of white fruit and minerals. Drink or hold. From biodynamically grown grapes." 94 James Suckling

Bodega Chacra Chardonnay Mainqué 2022, 0.75L
Chardonnay from Río Negro, Patagonia
"Such a flinty nose that delivers a full package of minerality. Quarry, chalk, gun powder and lime. The nose really speaks to you. Creamy and textured on the palate with bright but chiselled acidity and real tension. One of the best Mainque’s ever? Chacra’s answer to fine Chablis. Drink or hold. From biodynamically grown grapes." 97 Points James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com

By Farr Chardonnay Irrewarra 2019, 0.75L
Chardonnay from Geelong, Victoria
"A rich and ripe expression of chardonnay that offers lemon, lime and peach aromas, as well as savory nougat and toasted-nut complexity. The palate is fused tight, with intense acidity that is so well integrated into the structure. Impressive line and length. Lots to like here. Drink over the next five years." 93 Points James Suckling

Genot Boulanger Pommard Clos Blanc 2020, 0.75L
Pinot Noir from Pommard, Burgundy
“The 2020 Pommard Clos Blanc 1er Cru has a tightly wound nose with dark berry fruit, a touch of blueberry, hints of iodine and violet emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, good weight, a little chewiness towards the finish, though the Volnay Ronceret has a little more precision and charm.” 90-92 Neal Martin, Vinous, Nov 2021

Robert Moncuit Les Chetillons Grand Cru Blanc de Blanc Extra Brut 2015, 0.75L
Chardonnay from Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Champagne
Robert Moncuit is a French family winery with over a century of history. It is located in Le Mesnil-sur-Auger, where Alex Monqui planted vines in 1889. The first cuvées of them were obtained by Robert, Alex's grandson, only in 1935. Since then, the estate has been producing exceptional sparkling wines that are famous all over the world. The volume of wines produced is limited and amounts to 60,000 liters per year. After the death of Robert Monqui in 1987, his children, Françoise and Pierre Amille, took over the management of the company. They create elite champagnes from grapes from an area of 8 hectares of the Grand Cru category, fully occupied by Chardonnay grapes. The vines are processed without the use of pesticides, the harvest is carried out manually, and each batch is vinified separately, after which the wines are collected in exclusive blends.

Monte Rio Cellars Zinfandel Grist Vineyard 2019, 0.75L
Zinfandel from Dry Creek Valley, California
"The 2019 Zinfandel Grist is taut and maybe just a bit austere. It will be interesting to see what the final phase of aging brings. Crushed red berries, wild flowers, mint and citrus bring out the more vibrant side of Zinfandel nicely. I very much like the energy here." Antonio Galloni, Vinous
