Proprietary Blend Wine

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 points: The 2016 Ygrec (or “Y” as it is shown on the label and referred to) is, of course, the dry white from Yquem, and this latest release is a blend of 75% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Sémillon picked between 5 September and 13...

jamessuckling.com, 100 points: This is a triumph. An amazing white showing roasted pineapple, dried apple, flowers and hints of lemon curd on the nose. Hints of almonds, too. Full-body, closed and tight with amazing depth and beauty. Waxy, salty, and...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, 92 points: (made from 55% marsanne, 35% roussanne and 10% viognier; 5% new oak in large format): Pale yellow. Intensely perfumed nose offers fresh and dried pit fruits, jasmine and floral honey. Bright minerality adds lift and cut...

Wine Spectator, 92 points: Ripe and forward, with enticing pear, yellow apple and green fig flavors, caressed by a light salted butter note. The round, flattering finish has a verbena thread. Drink now through 2019. — J.M.

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 93 points: 93+ (60% new oak; 5,600 cases produced): Bright lemon-yellow. Fully ripe but exhilaratingly sappy aromas of tropical fruits, lemon oil, fig and honeysuckle. Very sexy, complex and smooth on the palate, with expressive...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 points: The 2012 Director’s Reserve White is a blend of 74% Sauvignon Blanc and 26% Semillon raised in 30% new French oak for nine months with regular lees stirring. It has a more herbaceous and earthier bouquet compared to the...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Revealing a touch of darker gold in its color, the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc is another blockbuster that continues to shine every time I've opened a bottle. Ripe, decadent and supple, it has boatloads of honeycomb...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2014 Planetes de Nin Blanc is produced with the white mutation of Cariñena, a rare variety called Cariñena Blanca, which DNA tests show to be identical to the red one. The wine is full of character, and I believe the...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: The 2015 Côtes du Rhône Blanc is mostly Grenache Blanc but includes 20% each of Clairette and Bourboulenc, with a splash of Viognier. It was brought up in concrete tanks and is a shockingly good. I wouldn’t hesitate to...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: This is crazy on the nose with dried lemons, volcanic salt, soy sauce and lycee. Full-bodied, dense and beautiful. A fabulous white showing the class and depth that it has oozed for decades. Truly one of Italy's best...
