2018 Dr. Loosen ‘Blue Slate’ Riesling
Decanter
91 ~
A classic Mosel ambassador with all the verve, lively acidity and forward fruit one would expect. Off-dry in style with loads of apricot, baked apple, snappy citrus and engaging spice. A defined minerality weaves through the mid-palate and carries on in intensity through the long, clean finish.

2018 Dufaitre Beaujolais-Villages Blanc
$34.00Add to cartTasting Notes ~ This wine has a refined taste reminiscent of much fancier Burgundy, while there is still something that tells you it is Beaujolais. There is a savory backbone to this wine and it strikes the palate with real force, with a finish that stretches on and on. -
2016 Rudd Sauvignon Blanc
$90.00Add to cartRobert Parker's Wine Advocate 94 ~ Composed of 83% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Sauvignon Gris and 7% Sémillon fermented 17% in new oak, 48% in neutral oak and 35% in concrete, the 2016 Sauvignon Blanc Mt. Veeder has quite an earthy/mineral nose to begin, featuring notes of wet pebbles, chalk dust and damp moss over a core of ripe peaches, lemon curd and dried herbs. The medium to full-bodied palate has great vivacity and depth, sporting a beautifully chewy phenolic texture and rasping backbone of acidity to support the intense citrus and herbal flavors, finishing on a lingering chalky note. Still very youthful, forget it for a year or two and drink it over the next 10-12 years+. -
2018 Jean-Paul & Benoît Droin Chablis Grand Cru ‘Les Clos’
$121.00Add to cartJames Suckling 95 ~ There’s such richness from the very first impression with all manner of peaches and nectarines, as well as mangoes. Smooth, peach brulée and lemon curd. Some hazelnuts, too. The palate has a super fleshy feel, very plush, very seductive and a very long, full finish. Late, mineral stream here. Drink on release or hold. This will be best at 15+ years.
