Weine

Decanter: The Valmur from Bessin-Tremblay is full, complete and round - simply superb. The wine is initially a bit closed, but with time, it shows an array of flavours ranging from ripe pear to quince and melon, accented with notes of chalky minerality, fresh white flowers and spice. The texture is elegant yet powerful, with abundant extract but enough acid to balance. The grapes are from just over 2ha in one solid block and the oldest vines were planted in 1947; they are fermented on native yeasts in tank and in barrel (10%)."

Decanter: This expression of Fourchaume is elegant and delicate, with notes of mirabelle plums, grapefruit, lime zest and hazelnut. The texture is fine and silky, with less power than the Pièce au Comte bottling, but still, there is enough substance to draw the wine to a satisfying conclusion. The grapes are from four parcels in Fourchaume that total 1.5ha; they are lightly crushed and fermented in tank and barrel (10%) then aged nearly 18 months before bottling."

It's concentrated and powerful, and the balanced acidity drives the wine to an impressive finish. Although approachable now, it will truly begin to open in 10 years. The wine matured for 18 months, partly in tank and partly in cask." 1 Fl. 2023 DOMAINE BESSIN TREMBLAY CHABLIS VALMUR Grand Cru 96 THE WINE ADVOCATE: "One of the late bloomers in bottle, as always, is the 2023 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur. The aromatic range is evocative of mirabelle plum, orange peel, fennel and oyster liquor. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, with a deep and crystalline core of fruit brimming with energy. Its incisive acidity and saline undertow frame a long, reverberating finish. If Fourchaume is expressive and giving, Valmur is elegantly reserved, and it will demand considerable patience before revealing its cards."

Der sogenannte "Supertoskaner" ist untrennbar mit Piero Antinori verbunden. Diese hochwertigen Rotweine aus der Toskana, die weinrechtlich nur als einfacher Tafelwein eingestuft wurden, erreichten erst 1971 mit Antinoris Jahrgang des "Tignanello" den Durchbruch. Pieros radikale Vorgehensweise, auf den erforderlichen Anteil an weißen Trauben zu verzichten und stattdessen französische Rebsorten wie

Wine Spectator: Complex aromas of blackberry, fresh mushrooms, tobacco and wet earth. Full-bodied, soft and luxurious texture to this ripe and opulent wine. Long and decadent too. Just coming around now. Give it more time. L'Evangile at its finest. -- '88/'98 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2008). Best after 2011. 3,000 cases made."

„ …wurde in lediglich 30% französischer Eiche gereift, zeigt aber keinerlei Holz, dafür frische, saftige Chardonnay Aromatik mit Granny Smith, Zitruszeste, Birne und Ananas. Ein absolut toller, saftiger und schmatziger Chardonnay, der so richtig Spaß macht und durch seine tolle Säure irre Frische zeigt, mit Drehverschluss sogar perfekt für Wander- oder Picknickausflüge geeignet ist.“

„ Ein Top-Cab wie aus dem Bilderbuch. Nach zwei Wochen Fermentation und weiteren 28 Tagen auf der Hefe wurde der Wein in 45% neuem Holz ausgebaut. Herausgekommen ist ein saftiger Cabernet mit Noten reifer, schwarzer Früchte, dunklen Oliven, Gewürzen und Kräutern. Sexyness verleihende dezente Holznote, dunkle Schokolade, Pflaumen und Räucherspeck. Tolle Säure und feine Tannine geben diesem Napa Wein anständig Zug. Das ist ein Top-Wert und mit Schraubverschluss easy to handle!“

Wine Spectator: Offers a stunning mix of crème brûlée, orange curd and peach preserves, with so much depth and complexity to the range of details, including wildflower honey and apricot pastry, plus spicy accents of nutmeg and Saigon cinnamon. Toffee and a touch of smoked salt linger on the finish. Drink now through 2035."

Wine Spectator: A stunning white, offering a fragrant and exuberant mix of orange Creamsicle and mango puree, with candied citrus zest, pound cake and marzipan accents. Creamy and lush as the vibrant acidity weaves in and out, with a drizzle of wildflower honey and honeysuckle on the expressive finish. Drink now through 2039."

Wine Spectator: Epic and aromatic, with hints of flint, dried mango, blood orange puree and lemon cheesecake. The acidity provides an appealing backbone for the supple mix of pear pastry, caramelized brown sugar, peach preserves and lemon verbena. The fresh, energetic finish shows hints of white tea. Drink now through 2040."

Wine Spectator: Remarkable, powerful and complex, with smoked butterscotch, pear, tangerine, white peach, apricot preserves and dried mango, plus floral accents of honeysuckle and orange blossoms. Notes of pineapple upside-down cake, candied ginger and sweet cream add richness and elegance. The freshness from the acidity amplifies the flavors on the epic finish. Drink now through 2038."

Wine Spectator: Grilled lemon and pineapple are a bold opening, with litsea oil and lemon balm notes giving way to flavors of ripe peach and apricot, plus a hint of green cardamom. Makrut lime leaf, lemongrass and lemon basil details linger on the long, aromatic and expressive finish. Drink now through 2040."

Wine Spectator: Distinctive and aromatic, with notes of fresh-cut Fuji apple, crunchy star fruit, lemon cream, ginger and jasmine. There's an appealing firmness to the acidity. Toasted, salted hazelnut, toffee and crunchy sea salt gain momentum on the finish, along with touches of toasted green tea and vetiver on the creamy finish. Drink now through 2039."

The Wine Advocate: Very few vintages of this legendary Tuscan wine deliver the immediate joy, richness and complexity found in the Tenuta San Guido 2023 Bolgheri Sassicaia. Tasted both before and after its January 2026 bottling, this is a wine that feels uncannily open and generous in its youth, a rare trait for Sassicaia, which is famously inscrutable at this stage. The 2023 vintage was marked by a cold winter and above-average rainfall followed by a severe outbreak of downy mildew that damaged leaves, forcing brutal fruit selection and resulting in a 20% reduction in yields. Only the estates willing to make these sacrifices succeeded, and the best wines rank among the most compelling and elusive of recent years."

Wine Spectator: A sleek and elegant wine, surprisingly delicious still, considering the weakness of the vintage. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a sweet fruit finish. Slightly annoying vegetal aftertaste.--L'Eglise Clinet vertical. Drink now."
