Mullineux Old Vines White
Mullineux Old Vines White

2021 / 750 ml.

Item #: 61000

VN9393 pts. - Vinous - Sep 2022
The 2021 Old Vines White comes from vines up to 70-years old built around Chenin Blanc, 62% in this vintage, barrel fermented in 500-litre barrels and a couple of foudres. This has a lovely bouquet with dried honey, white flowers, honeysuckle and light grilled walnut aromas. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, gorgeous texture with impressive tension on the finish. This is an outstanding Old Vine White that will age with style. (Neal Martin)

Dom Pérignon
Dom Pérignon

2013 / 750 ml.

Item #: 59435

SP9696 pts. - Wine Spectator - Nov 30, 2022
Vivid acidity and a chalky underpinning make a crystalline frame for finely detailed notes of ripe melon, mandarin orange, toasted brioche and candied ginger in this harmonious Champagne, which is expressive and expansive on the palate, but with a sense of finesse and restraint. Long and creamy on the mineral-laced finish. Drink now through 2037. (Alison Napjus)
RP95+95+ pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Aug 2022
Disgorged in October last year, the 2013 Dom Pérignon is a lovely wine, defined by the long, cool growing season. Offering up aromas of crisp stone fruit, tangerine oil, buttered toast, pear, almonds and clear honey, it’s medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, with bright acids and a pillowy, enveloping profile, concluding with a long, saline finish. Vincent Chaperon recalls that shatter at fruit set moderated yields and that a drying east wind in the weeks before harvest helped to maintain the good sanitation necessary to wait to pick at full maturity. (William Kelley)
VN9494 pts. - Vinous - May 2022
The 2013 Dom Pérignon is quite delicate and understated. It reminds me of the 2004, but with a bit more mid-palate richness and a bit less energy. Apricot, tangerine peel, white flowers, jasmine, mint and light honeyed notes all meld together. There’s lovely vinous intensity as well as a feeling of openness that make the 2013 a delight to taste today. The 2013 doesn’t look to be an epic DP, but it sure is delicious right now.

Gianfranco Alessandria Barolo

2018 / 750 ml.

Item #: 59859

RP9393 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 23rd Jul 2022
The 2018 Barolo embarks on a rather straightforward performance initially, and the wine gains in complexity as it opens in the glass. The bouquet is elegant and tapered with wild berry, spice and licorice. It is ample in terms of mouthfeel, delivering medium texture and depth. Classic and elegant are two appropriate descriptors. The estate released 12,000 bottles in this vintage. (Monica Larner)
VN9090 pts. - Vinous - Feb 2022
The 2018 Barolo is a very pretty wine for this vintage. Sweet dried cherry, mint, spice, worn-in leather and dried herbs are all laced together in this attractive, somewhat ethereal Barolo. All the elements are nicely balanced. The 2018 won’t be a long-lived Barolo, but it is quite appealing today. (Antonio Galloni)

Marqués de Casa Concha Carménère

2021 / 750 ml.

Item #: 60836

JS9393 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Monday, April 24, 2023
Spicy nose with plenty of cumin and fennel. A mixture of red and black fruit with dark olives. Juicy and flavorful with a medium-bodied palate and long, silky tannins. Drink now. (Zekun Shuai)
VN9292 pts. - Vinous - Jun 2023
The 2021 Carménère Marques de Casa Concha includes 6% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2.5% Merlot from Peumo, Cachapoal. It was aged for 12 months, mainly in French oak barrels and 4% in foudres. Bright purple in the glass. The spicy nose offers plum and blueberry notes with hints of bay leaf and ash over a faint bed of jalapeño and oak. Indulgent, juicy and broad with mild freshness, the finish delivers ash and jalapeño flavors. (Joaquín Hidalgo)
RP9191 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 6th Apr 2023
The 2021 Marques de Casa Concha Carmenere contains 6% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2.5% Merlot and was sourced from the classical zone for the grapes—Peumo in Cachapoal. They picked the grapes on normal dates (20th of May). It fermented in stainless steel with selected yeasts and matured in French oak barrels, 29% of them new, although 4% of the volume was in 5,000-liter Italian foudres for 12 months. It has 14% alcohol and kept a moderate pH of 3.6. The élevage was shorter and they reduced the new oak. The characteristic of this range is that the wines are textbook examples of the varieties and places and are quite homogeneous from vintage to vintage, here showing the freshness of the vintage, which is more delicate and with good tension. 240,000 bottles produced. It was bottled between June 2022 and February 2023. (Luis Gutiérrez)

Louis Jadot Pouilly-Fuissé

2022 / 750 ml.

Item #: 60740

VN8888 pts. - Vinous - Aug 2023
The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé has a well-defined and focused bouquet. It’s mineral-driven, with subtle earthy scents filtering through the citrus fruit with time. The palate is well balanced with good depth, well-judged acidity, plenty of tangy orange zest and freshly-sliced pear towards the harmonious finish. This is a solid Pouilly-Fuissé rather than a memorable one. It does the job without the frills. Tasted blind at the BIVB tasting. (Neal Martin)

Fattoria Le Pupille Saffredi
Fattoria Le Pupille Saffredi

2020 / 750 ml.

Item #: 60611

JS9898 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Wednesday, December 28, 2022
Impressive aromas of fresh herbs from the Tuscan coast, such as sage, mint, rosemary and thyme. Blackcurrants, too. Full-bodied with fine, chewy tannins that show beautiful length and consistency. Racy and beautiful, with lots of subtle and refined character. Slightly more cabernet sauvignon this year, which adds class to the wine. 80% cabernet sauvignon, 10% merlot and 10% petit verdot. Give this about three or four years of bottle age. Try after 2027. (James Suckling)
VN96+96+ pts. - Vinous - Aug 2023
The 2020 Saffredi is compelling. Deep yet quite structured, 2020 is unlike any Saffredi I can recall tasting because of its balance of intense dark fruit and vertical structure. Plum, blackberry, pencil shavings, lavender and spice saturate the palate. Readers will have to be patient, as the 2020 is not as showy as most vintages at the same stage. (Antonio Galloni)
RP9595 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st May 2023
This blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot and 4% Petit Verdot is exuberant and explosive. The 2020 Saffredi reveals a very ripe and rich interpretation of this iconic wine made by Elisabetta Geppetti and her family. The blend of fruit is the same, but 2020 actually sees less oak intervention to allow that dark fruit to shine through. There is blackberry, perfumed rose, dried apricot, spice and sweet cinnamon. In all, the wine offers immediate fruit and a vertical delivery of flavors. Finding that combination of wine versus oak is not easy, Elisabetta tells me. (Monica Larner)

Montepeloso A Quo
Montepeloso A Quo

2021 / 750 ml.

Item #: 59119

RP9292 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 22nd Jun 2023
Made with mostly Sangiovese and smaller percentages of Malvasia Nera, Cabernet Sauvignon, Montepulciano, Marselan and Alicante Bouschet, the 2021 A Quo offers intense fragrances that span from blackberry to dark rose—like one of those deep purple blooms you might see at a specialized florist. It is densely textured with a solid structure. A Quo is a wine of exceptional value, with 73,000 bottles on the market. (Monica Larner)
VN9292 pts. - Vinous - Aug 2023
The 2021 A Quo is a fabulous introduction to these wines. Bright, punchy and vibrant, the 2021 offers up an exciting mix of red fruit, blood orange, rose petal, mint and cinnamon. Montepeloso’s entry-level estate offering is a winner. (Antonio Galloni)

Pedestal Merlot
Pedestal Merlot

2018 / 750 ml.

Item #: 60865

VN9696 pts. - Vinous - Mar 2022
Long Shadows has crafted a beautiful new Right Bank style 2018 Merlot Pedestal, which is nearly all Merlot (82%) with smaller portions of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. Once on the nose this shows an intoxicating bouquet of black currant jelly, espresso bean and shades of black licorice candy. The mouthfeel captured here is exquisite as the Merlot seamlessly glides across the mid-palate delivering a decadent core of dark fruits, black licorice, black peppercorn and espresso ground tones. Finishing very long, this is already a beautifully evolved wine that will improve with an hour in the decanter. (Owen Bargreen)
RP9393 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 8th Dec 2021
Dark-fruited and with a dense and inky core, the 2018 Pedestal Merlot offers aromas of resinous purple flowers with hints of oak and blackberry jus. Full-bodied and firm on the palate, the deep and complex expression will take another year to fill out its shoes. The wine ahs firm gripping tannins across the mid-palate along with a tight mineral tension, then lingers with persistent notions of spiced plum compote and graphite. Give it another year in the bottle, and then drink it over the next 10 to 12 years. (Anthony Mueller)
