Jean-Louis Chave 2021 Saint-Joseph
$69.99Northern Rhone Valley France
Decanter Magazine 93 Rating
A tasting of the various constituent lieux-dits revealed that the Bachesson parcel had a peppery side and its characteristic rose scent, and an unmistakably granitic texture. The Chalaix lieu-dit was precise, fine, with no huge concentration but good balance. Lieu-dit Dardouille was looking promising, with good weight and length. The finished blend of the domaine’s St-Joseph is likely to be neat, precise and fresh, with a distinct mineral side, one to drink relatively young. There will be no separate bottling of Clos Florentin this year due to frost. SP36-6 Most stores $99.99 -

Jean-Marc Brocard 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses
$99.99 – $510.00Burgundy France
Enjoyabilityfactor 95 Rating
The Les Preuses Grand Cru site is located on a geological ‘amphitheater’ created by the Vaudésir valley. The vines are planted to a southeastern exposure, receiving heaps of sunshine to aid in ripening. The sub-soil offers a harmonious combination of compact clay and calcareous soils.
Aromatically the wine is intensely floral and stone fruit-driven, with quince, Asian pears, yellow apples, jasmine, and honeysuckle lifting from the glass. On the palate, there is a luxurious creaminess to the wine, with a final note of bracing minerality to balance it out.

Jean-Marc Brocard 2022 Sainte Claire Chablis
$24.99 – $264.00Burgundy France
Decanter Magazine 93 Rating
Some of the vines here are over 70 years old. Even with a reticent, understated nose one can sense the energy and precision in this wine. There’s a lovely, creamy texture on the palate, with bright citrus notes and a long, lingering, savoury, mineral finish. A very fine example of Chablis which would compete very effectively against many a premier cru.

Joh. Jos. Prüm 2003 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Gold Capsule
$94.99Mosel Germany
Wine Spectator 95 Rating
Very clean and focused, with an intensity that belies its delicate profile. Wonderful aromas and flavors of apricot, flowers and slate, with pinpoint balance and a long, almost salty aftertaste. Deceptive and completely disarming in its appeal. Drink now through 2030. *Collectibles* Wall -
John Anthony 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon
$79.99 – $360.00Napa Valley California
Wine Spectator 93 Rating
Really ripe and takes an exotic bent, with a mix of loganberry, mulberry and boysenberry fruit compote flavors infused liberally with licorice snap and wood spice accents. Shows lots of apple wood and mesquite through the finish, which is carried by a tarry spine. Showy and pulls it off. Best from 2023 through 2035. 2,391 cases made.
