2021 Jean-Baptiste Jessiaume VolnayPinot Noir more |
5/11/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsUnexpectedly good, the nose is to die for. Red fruits (cherry, strawberry, raspberry), flowers, forest floor. Silky smooth and creamy on the palate. Average length. Excellent sucrosity and salinity. Great complexity for its quality level. |

5/10/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsWell integrated acidity, creamy rich texture, stone fruits and melon, delicate oak spice. Resembles a nice Meursault. 93-94 |

2022 Domaine Jessiaume Santenay La ForgePinot Noir more |
5/9/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 91 pointsA simple but very clean red fruit scented Pinot with enough structure and “meat” to allow for further development. |

2019 Pierre Girardin Meursault Eclat de CalcaireChardonnay more |
5/7/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsLemon cheesecake, lemon curd, oyster shells, chalk, yellow apples, perfect use of oak (toffee, vanilla, crème brûlée). |

2020 Luccarelli Primitivo di Manduria Campo Marinamore |
5/5/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 92 pointsBurnt sugar, blackberry jam, caramel, smoke. Opulent and heavy, good but not great. |

2021 Lapis Luna Pinot NoirNorth Coast more |
5/4/2024 - IvanLi Does not like this wine: 90 pointsI can see how some may like it, but in my opinion it’s yet another lusciously sweet, unbalanced, syrupy wine with notes of burnt sugar and Pepsi cola. |

2021 Lapis Luna ChardonnayNorth Coast more |
5/4/2024 - IvanLi Does not like this wine: 89 pointsSyrupy generic white stone fruits, canned corn, vanilla, sweet and terrible, to be honest. |

2012 Fattoria Petrolo GalatronaToscana IGT Merlot more |
5/4/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsRed and black currants, wet earth, spices, hints of chocolate. A bit thin and not “grand” (for the lack of better words) enough vs my expectations. |

2016 Torbreck DescendantBarossa Valley Shiraz Blend, Syrah more |
5/3/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 95 pointsAnother bottle of the same vintage and I can only confirm the first note. Drunk over two evenings the wine is clearly better on day two. A stunning qpr and definitely decant. |

2019 Weingut Robert Weil Riesling TrockenRheingau more |
5/2/2024 - IvanLi wrote: 90 pointsVery aromatic and clean, floral, petrol, peach blossom infused wine that is lacking in concentration and length. |

2017 Faiveley Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs-GainChardonnay more |
5/2/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsVery delicate and elegant chard with lemon curd, apples, lemon cheesecake, oyster shells and chalky minerality. There is enough length but not enough depth and concentration to consider it totally classy for its provenance. |
| White |
2019 Kistler Chardonnay Les NoisetiersSonoma Coast more |
4/27/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsButtery chard with tropical fruits, apples, cocoa, butter and French oak. Viscous and concentrated on the attack the wine lacks a bit on the finish and the mid palate. Excellent example of a New World Chard. |

2018 Pieropan Soave Classico La RoccaGarganega more |
4/26/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsThe wine is better on day 2, so it needs aeration. |

2019 Weingut Türk Grüner Veltliner Frechau 1ÖTWKremstal more |
4/26/2024 - IvanLi wrote: 92 pointsA very concentrated almost viscous wine that resembles Kabinett Riesling but made of Grüner. The wine is beautifully concentrated and complex but lacks purity and balance: there are some off-flavors that dissipate with air and the wine is too sweet lacking acidity to balance it out. |
| White |
2020 Weingut Türk Riesling Kremser WeinbergeKremstal more |
4/23/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 92 pointsVery aromatic wine with flavours mostly deriving from fermentation: tropical fruits and flowers (esthers). Lively acidity and in balance, drinks really well. |

2021 Schloss Johannisberg Riesling Rotlack KabinettRheingau more |
4/22/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsExcellent, intensive and powerful Riesling that’s a nice combo of tropical fruit, honey, flowers and apricot jam with hints of petrol. Perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. Not the most complex and refined, but still excellent. |
| White |
2019 Kilikanoon Riesling The LackeyClare Valley more |
4/22/2024 - IvanLi Does not like this wine: 85 pointsTerrible bland Riesling. Would be Non-descript and forgettable but there is an off flavour that makes it really appalling. |

2020 Glaetzer Dixon Family Winemakers Pinot Noir ReveurCoal River more |
4/14/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsEarth, sous bois, animalistic, wild cranberries, cowberries. Slightly bitter sweet, pungent aromas and flavors. Not a grand Pinot, but a soulful wine for sure. |

2017 Garage Wine Co. Cabernet Franc Lot #90 Pirque Vineyardmore |
4/12/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 93 pointsCassis jam, baking spices, wet earth, licorice and milk chocolate. Sweet , savoury, short and unclean on the finish. A kinda strange wine tbh. |

2017 Boekenhoutskloof SyrahFranschhoek Valley more |
4/11/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 94 pointsConcentrated black currant fruit, expensive oak:smoke, spices, wet earth, graphite. Multi layered and very young which is impressive for a new world Syrah. There is a bit too much weight and slight austerity on the finish which takes away a point or two. 93-94. |

4/9/2024 - IvanLi Likes this wine: 94 pointsMedium rare steak, black pepper, wet earth, olive tapenade and graphite. Succulent, complex and elegant. |
