94pts Vinous Deep ruby-red. Raspberry, superripe red cherry and red plum on the intensely fruity nose. Dense and supple, but with plenty of acidity to provide shape to the red and dark fruit and licorice flavors. Finishes very clean, with broad tannins and excellent persistence. This superb entry-level wine is quite serious. 93pts James Suckling…
94pts Robert Parker s Wine Advocate The 2016 Castello del Terriccio (a blend of mostly Syrah with Petit Verdot and complementary red grapes) is a concentrated and inky dark wine with almost no light penetration. The wine moves smoothly over the palate with the focus and precision that we have come to associate with this…
Winemaker Notes The white wine Con Vento Toscana Bianco IGT from the Castello del Terriccio winery represents one of the best productions of this winery. The name of the wine comes from the vineyards located on a hill exposed to all winds; the vineyards are located at an average altitude of about 100 meters and…

The harvest began at the end of August with the Merlot, followed by the Cabernet Franc and at the end of September by the Cabernet Sauvignon. Selected parcels, vinified partly in steel and partly in oak vats and 500 liter barrels. Long maceration on…
95pts Tasting Panel Made by the talented hands of winemaker Celia Welch with fruit from one of Napa Valley’s most arresting mountain AVAs, this showpiece—aged 20 months in (70% new) French oak—is still in its youth but already offers great balance and structure. Aromas of mocha, cedar, and nutmeg permeate the glass. Opulent and statuesque,…
Winemaker Notes The fruit for this bottling was sourced from the southeast corner of Sonoma County, almost touching the Napa County line. We were awestruck when we had the opportunity to purchase such high-quality old vine Cabernet Sauvignon from a site defined by gravelly loam soils in the shadow of Mount Saint Helena. This wine…
Winemaker Notes This wine is a clear and shiny goldish yellow, with green hints when young. The nose is fresh with notes of nuts, honey and citrus fruits. Medium body on the palate with delicate fruit flavors and a slightly spicy finish. Pair this medium-bodied wine with medium-bodied dishes, highlight citrus flavors with fresh oranges…

93pts Wine Spectator Dense, juicy and inviting, with bouncy briar, blackberry, steeped black currant and melted black licorice notes framed by roasted apple wood and graphite notes. The finish courses along with good definition. Energetic and tempting, but the gripping, iron-laden finish will benefit from cellaring. 93pts James Suckling Polished and very fine with pretty…
95pts Robert Parker s Wine Advocate Served from an ex-chateau bottle. The 1995 Chateau d’Yquem is moving into its secondary aroma phase. A deep golden color, it has a dense and almost Barsac-like bouquet with tangerine, apricot, acacia and melted candle wax. It displays good intensity, unfolding beautifully in the glass. The palate has a strident…
98pts Vinous Owners LVMH took the decision to delay the release of the 2019 Yquem until spring 2022. It was tasted with winemaker Sandrine Garbay in London. Tasting the 2019, I noticed that it has a slightly paler hue compared to recent vintages (though I never read too much into the colour of young Sauternes.) For…

Winemaker Notes Chateau des Bachelards vineyard was created by the Benedictine monks of Cluny and the wine is part of this culture of intuition and observation. The Château is doubly certified in organic and biodynamic viticulture, and is a forerunner in its appellation in many respects: agroforestry in the vines, permaculture vegetable garden, sheep, bees,…
