Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2020 Pauillac
$899.99Bordeaux France
Jeb Dunnuck 100 Rating
Looking at the Grand Vin, the 2020 Chateau Lafite-Rothschild is a sensational effort checking in as 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot that hit 12.8% natural alcohol and a pH of 3.94. As Lafite as Lafite gets, this ultra-classic reveals a dense ruby/plum hue as well as a tight, yet layered bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, freshly sharpened pencils, graphite, and subtle spice. Flawlessly balanced, deep, concentrated, and layered, it has an incredible mid-palate, building, perfect tannins, and a finish that leaves you salivating. Refined, elegant, and perfection are the buzz words here. Unfortunately, it’s not for the instant gratification crowd, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see this require 15 years to hit the early stages of its prime drinking window. It will probably hit its 100th birthday in fine form. Best After 2038. R42-3 -
Speri 2018 Sant’Urbano Amarone della Valpolicella Classico
$79.99 – $876.00Veneto Italy
James Suckling 94 Rating
Dark cherries, blackberries, mussels, licorice, figs and some finely ground black chocolate, following through to a medium-to full-bodied palate with elegant berries and a bittersweet black-chocolate note. A refined, textbook Amarone that shows great poise and modern drinkability.

Vilmart & Cie 2013 Brut Emotion Rose
$169.99 – $870.00Champagne France
Wine Spectator 94 Rating
Sleek and lightly chalky in texture, this vinous version shows a well-spiced range of wild strawberry, macerated cherry and orange liqueur flavors, with accents of graphite, violet and fennel seed. Long and mouthwatering, with the plushy creamy finish carrying the expressive profile. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Disgorged April 2020. Drink now through 2033.

Tamber Bey 2021 Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
$159.99 – $870.00Yountville Napa Valley California
The aromas deliver hickory and cherry wood smoke, dense blackberry and blueberry jam, cigar box, toffee, and crushed rock. Flavors of blackberry and black cherry intermingle with tobacco leaf, black licorice, and fennel bulb. The expansive tannins coat the palate, lending a warm, luxurious feel to the wine. The finishing tannins are very fine-grained and persistent.

Anakota 2019 Helena Montana Cabernet Sauvignon
$169.99 – $870.00Sonoma California

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Helena Montana, from chalk soils with western-facing exposition, is the most exuberant in terms of its aromatics, with candied flowers, cherry liqueur, sweet tobacco, and graphite. The fruit fills the palate up front and through the mid-palate, with a refreshing spine of acidity and great mineral texture. The tannins are ripe and well-integrated. This is a delicious wine out of the gate and will be worth holding onto and checking in on over the next 20 years. R24-5

Wine Enthusiast 93 Rating
This plush, delicious and fruit-drenched wine pairs wonderful black fruit nuances of crème de cassis and black cherries with subtle, layered oak spices of new leather, tobacco and graphite, while a creamy texture makes the texture almost irresistible.

Giodo 2019 Brunello di Montalcino
$159.99 – $840.00Tuscany Italy
James Suckling 99 Rating
Aromas of cedar, earth, tree bark, fruit tea, black tea and cherries. Then it turns to fresh and dried flowers. Medium to full body as it grows on the palate with superb fine tannins that run the length of the wine. It’s structured and powerful with great length. The acid, tannin balance is incredible. Very clear and transparent. What a wine. Drinkable but better in three or four years.

Antinori 2021 Guado al Tasso Bolgheri Superiore
$159.99 – $840.00Bolgheri Italy
Antonio Galloni 98 Rating
The 2021 Bolgheri Superiore Guado al Tasso is a very beautiful wine, but also quite a departure from the style that made it famous years ago. Readers will find an especially polished Guado al Tasso, a wine that emphasizes finesse more than power. Silky tannins wrap around a core of black cherry fruit, licorice, spice, mocha and new leather. Bright, saline undertones extend the exquisite finish. There’s more Cabernet Franc in the blend these days, and that very much comes through in the wine’s crazy aromatic presence and feel. The 2021 spent 16 months in wood, three months in used French oak barrels during the malolactic fermentation and then 14 months in barrel (80% new) for the rest of its aging. Gorgeous.

Sena 2021 Red Bordeaux Blend
$149.99 – $840.00Aconcagua Valley Chile
James Suckling 100 Rating
An extremely pure and elegant vintage for Seña. This is really fresh, nimble and floral on the nose with subtle cherries, plums, redcurrants and wild lavender. More red fruit here with lots of layers and just a touch of sweet spice. Very discreet and subtle, with the elegance, freshness and poise you’d expect from 2021. Medium- to full-bodied on the palate with a bit more flesh and depth if you compare it with Roca de Seña, their second wine. The impeccable tannins show the supreme quality of the fruit this year. Persistent, seamless finish, but comes in a subtle way. 50% cabernet sauvignon, 27% malbec, 17% carmenere and 6% petit verdot. Effortlessly drinkable now, but it will age beautifully.
