A bird of a different feather, this marries a polished feel with the nervy, underlying zip of sel gris and quinine notes, while its core of green almond, star fruit and white peach opens slowly. Shows subtle accents of...

Polished. Generous body, smooth, mineral, savoury. Full on fragrant and zesty citrus, pamplemousse, white blossom, saline. 3.15pH. - SUZANNE MUSTACICH

The 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc is beautiful, with a fresh, lively style. Its notes of stone fruits, white flowers, citrus pitch, and crushed stone all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, with a pure...

Pie crust, chalk, grapefruit and nutmeg on the nose of this chalky, minerally Champagne. Tight and driven, with sharp acidity and very fine bubbles. Delicious sea salt and citrus notes come through at the end. 100%...

There’s a lovely honeysuckle accent breezing along over the top of fresh white nectarine, yellow apple and fennel flavors. A vibrant quinine note adds lovely energy through the lengthy, mouthwatering finish. Sauvignon...

Recently replanted from red, so young vines. Mid yellow in colour, with a density to the nose which was missing in the Santenay. Succulent ripe citrus, some orange blossom, but not too lush. Very impressive for young...

Don't mess with the 2021 Saumur Blanc L’Échelier: it's got attitude—flirty, floral and transparent, with the purity of a glacier. The Germains didn't do any malolactic despite the natural acidity of this vintage. This is...

The 2024 Sancerre from Comte Lafond has turned out beautifully in this challenging vintage. The wine comes in at thirteen percent octane and its aromatic constellation delivers scents of lemon, green apple, gooseberry...

A good touch of ripe white fruits gives this wine, with its quince and pear aromas, a rounded character. Its red-apple flavors are cut with citrus, and perfumed from the Sauvignon Gris in the blend. Drink the wine now. —...

Here too there is a Chablis-like hint of quinine adding breadth to the decidedly cool and citrusy green apple-scented nose. There is excellent cut and energy to the delicious medium weight flavors that exude a subtle...

(92-94 points) A more restrained, and more complex, nose requires aggressive swirling to reveals its aromas of spiced apple, ripe pear compote and cool citrus wisps. Once again there is a gorgeous mouthfeel to the dense...

Replanted from red, so young vines from 2019. Mid lemon yellow. The same succulent and attractive nose as Sur Lavelle but perhaps just a touch more personality, less citrus, a little verbena. The fruit is very evenly...

A bird of a different feather, this marries a polished feel with the nervy, underlying zip of sel gris and quinine notes, while its core of green almond, star fruit and white peach opens slowly. Shows subtle accents of...

Ripe lemon notes on this wine's nose have hints of Mirabelle plum and lemon-peel waxiness. The palate is rounded and smooth, but shot through with ripe lemon zest. This wine is fruitier and richer than expected, but...

A full-bodied, mineral-rich style, with a lot of power behind its lemon rind and stone fruit notes, which are broad and mouthfilling. The foundation of flinty mineral keeps this firmly taut through the long finish...

(90-93 points) 75% wood and 25% in various types of neutral container. Pale lemon. A fine and classy nose with no wood in evidence, more of a mineral character, but no dominating reduction, just a whisper to add...

(90-92 points) Slightly riper aromas include those of sea breeze, iodine and citrus confit, along with the hallmark floral nuances. The very rich and generously proportioned medium weight flavors possess fine...

The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Prestige Blanc is pure gold and a magical, perfect wine from this incredible family estate. Based largely on Roussanne with smaller amounts of Grenache Blanc and Clairette, it was brought up...

While this wine is currently quiet, it shows a lot of promise. Mouthwatering and long on the palate, it offers attractive citrus pith, delicate white flowers and fresh almonds. Cellar hold for 5-7 years. — Anna-Christina...
