2018 Wine

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: This is another fantastic white and continues to be one of the best from Tuscany. It’s so perfumed with sliced apples, pears and kiwis, as well as cream, hot stone and sea. Granite. Full-bodied yet energetic and layered...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This is a longtime favorite, due to its purity of fruit and freshness, showing green-papaya, lime, lemon and green-apple character. Medium body. Crisp acidity. No wood. Steely and fruity at the end. Drink now.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: The 2018 Cincuenta y Cinco follows the breathtaking 2017 with an extra degree of elegance and filigree. This wine has reached an amazing level of sophistication and nuance. There are tannins there, and there's more power...

Vinous, 93 points: Shimmering orange. Fresh pit fruit, red berry and floral qualities on the highly perfumed nose, along with suggestions of dusty minerals and orange zest. Juicy, focused and lithe on the palate, offering intense nectarine...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: The top-tier chardonnay here is very much in command and has a super rich and very concentrated feel with deep, ripe-peach and mango aromas with grilled-grapefruit notes, too. The palate is very rich and ripe, offering a...

Vinous, 94 points: (VN 92-94 points) The 2018 Chablis Mont de Milieu 1er Cru is impressive. Rich, pliant and beautifully layered, the Mont de Milieu is one of the highlights in this range. Perfumed aromatics and silky fruit add to its...

Wine & Spirits, 92 points: This wine’s satiny texture holds more raspberry flavor than you might think possible from a rosé. Mostly cinsault and grenache, plus 20 percent syrah, it’s full bodied and long, a rosé for the dinner table.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The original red 2018 A Lisa was named after Han Vinding Diers' Danish grandmother and sourced form villages within 15kilometers from Mainqué in Río Negro, so their village red. They had frost in the zone in 2018, and...

Wine Enthusiast, 93 points: This rare find in the Napa Valley is bright and floral, with bristling acidity. From an estate-grown site planted in 2012, this white saw no oak, preserving its fruity core of melon, peach and jasmine.

jebdunnuck.com, 97 points: (95-97) Made by Marie Lefévère (of Château Sansonnet and Château Moulin du Cadet), the 2018 Château Soutard-Cadet comes from a small 2.7-hectare vineyard located just in front of Château Soutard that consists of...

Vinous, 92 points: The 2018 Furmint is bright, steely and crisp, with terrific energy driving the citrus peel, orchard fruit and floral notes. The 2018 is a bit nervous today - so I would give it a bit of time in bottle - but it is very...

jamessuckling.com, 91 points: Here’s a sexy rosé that follows the Provence formula to a tee. It displays freshly sliced pears, nectarines and strawberries. Medium body, bright acidity and a racy, textured finish. Drink now.

Vinous, 92 points: Light brilliant orange. Powerful red berry, orange pith and floral aromas are complicated by building herb and mineral nuances. Juicy and energetic on the palate, offering intense cherry, red currant and blood orange...

Vinous, 93 points: Light shimmering orange. Intense aromas of strawberry, nectarine, honeydew melon and orange zest, with a bright mineral overtone that builds with air. Shows impressive clarity and tension on the palate, offering juicy pit...
