Weingut Neumeister Sauvignon Blanc Ried Moarfeitl 2020, 0.75L
Sauvignon Blanc from Vulkanland Steiermark, Straden
"Light yellow-green color, with silver highlights. Fine yellow gooseberry notes with fine hints of cassis, a touch of orange, and subtle floral nuances. Complex, taut, white fruit, with fine apple notes, a lemony touch, and a saline finish; good persistency, a salty finish, and certain ageing potential." 95 Peter Moser, Falstaff Magazin
"Neumeister's 2020 Sauvignon Blanc Ried Moarfeitl GSTK offers a clear, complex and dense nose with fine soil spice and lots of iodine. Delicate on the palate, yet with substance and plenty of salt—most of all in the finish—this is a remarkably purist and fresh Moarfeitl with personality and a lot of finesse and elegance but also complexity. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in Grafenegg in September 2022." 93 Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate
"The flintiness and saltiness represent a remarkable beginning of this white, while its seductive texture really pulls you in. The zesty, high-pitched acidity flows through acting as the perfect vehicle for the lime, thistle-tea, lemon- verbena and chamomile notes. The long, stony finish glides effortlessly." 93 Aleks Zecevic, Wine Enthusiast

Lassegue 2020, 0.75L
Bordeaux Blend from St. Emilion, Bordeaux
“Wide, powdery, fine but firm tannins; a lovely density to this. Concentrated and intense, very straight and streamlined. Finessed and focused. Clearly powerful, the energy is apparent, but all the elements are kept quite tight and controlled, so you're not getting so much expansion or nuance necessarily. Still, well worked with clarity to the fruit and tannins. Wet stone, liquorice, toasted caramel all giving elements of wood but integrated and supportive. Feels like a sleeping giant, will be good in time, sleek and stylish.” 95, Georgina Hindle, Decanter, Feb 2023

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Corton Prince Florent de Merode 2020, 0.75L
Pinot Noir from Corton, Burgundy
“The warm, dry conditions of 2020 gave deep colour and ripe plummy fruit aromas to the DRC Corton, along with hints of earth, menthol, and wild herbs. The wine is still marked by oak aromas, and the texture is firm and slightly angular, although it softens with time and the finish is less strict. The Corton is not yet at the same level as the rest of the range but this among the best red wines produced on the hill of Corton, and a convincing interpretation of this classic style.” 95, Charles Curtis MW, Decanter, Jul 2023
“A worthy successor to the brilliant 2019, the 2020 Corton Grand Cru exhibits aromas of dark wild berries, violets, baking chocolate and forest floor. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a velvety attack that segues into a layered, vibrant mid-palate, it concludes with a precise, penetrating finish.” 95, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Jan 2023
“A notably ripe nose speaks mostly of poached plum, warm earth and an array of spice and floral nuances that are trimmed in smoky wood hints. The decidedly rich and solidly concentrated big-bodied flavors possess a velvety mid-palate texture along with excellent energy on the muscular, moderately austere and superbly persistent finish. This is definitely robust and while not exactly rustic, it's not Romanée St. Vivant either - either way, it's clearly built-to-age and a wine that's going to need at least a decade first though it should be reasonably approachable thereafter.” 94, Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jan 2023

Domaine Rouchier Saint-Joseph La Chave 2020, 0.75L
Syrah from St. Joseph, Rhone
"Rising aerial freshness, this gently hovers out of the glass, with a petrichor note on the nose. Light-bodied, but no lack of impact or intensity. Deeply textural, with a mass of ripe tannin, it finishes dry and saline. Great freshness and energy. Whole-bunch fermented with natural yeasts, followed by 16 months élevage in old barrels." 95 Matt Walls, Decanter Magazine

Elephant Hill Kohatu Gimblett Gravels 2020, 0.75L
Bordeaux Blend from Gimblett Gravels, Hawke's Bay
"Very complex aromas of blackcurrants and graphite as well as purple fruit. Just a touch of smoke. It’s medium- to full-bodied with round and polished tannins and a long and flavorful finish. This is really nicely put together. A blend of 53% merlot, 24% cabernet sauvignon and 23% cabernet franc. Drinkable now, but it will be even better in another three or four years Screw cap." 95, James Suckling, Mar 2024

BV Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Winemaker's Selection Rutherford 2020, 0.75L
Cabernet Sauvignon from Rutherford, California
"Energizing tannins and vivid fruit acidity power the massive black fruits and intricate oak spices in this muscular but polished wine. Plump blackberries, baked blueberries, black currants and cedar all add to the compelling flavors. Built to improve and gain complexity with age, this wine should drink best from 2027–2037." 95, Jim Gordon, Wine Enthusiast, Dec 2023
“The Rutherford Reserve leads with black fruits, toffee and oak spices. Full-bodied with ripe sweet blackberry and black cherry notes, building tannins that are a bit granular. The wine has plenty of grip and is built on 90% Cabernet Sauvignon with 10% Petit Verdot, aged 21 months in 80% new French oak. It is nicely balanced with a pH of 3.64 and is one not easy to put down.” 94, Jonathan Cristaldi, Decanter, Jun 2023
“The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford Reserve is packed with dark fruit, chocolate, grilled herbs, leather and incense. In 2020, winemaker Trevor Durling added 10% Petit Verdot to add body, a decision that paid off handsomely. This is a very fine wine for the year. Chocolaty tannins linger on the close.” 92, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2023

Small Vines Chardonnay TBH Vineyard 2020, 0.75L
Chardonnay from Sonoma Coast, California
"The 2020 Chardonnay TBH Vineyard unfolds its initial flinty tones to reveal white peaches, Meyer lemon, orange blossom, beeswax and roasted almonds. Medium-bodied, the palate is ultra-concentrated, satiny and expansive, enlivened by tangy acidity, and it finishes with great length, detail and texture." 95 Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate
