  • 2023 Bodega Cerrón Chardonnay Remordimiento 91 Points

    Spain, Murcia, Jumilla

    From the Fuente-Álamo and Albacete zones in Jumilla, Chardonnay vines planted on north-facing high-altitude vineyards (840m a.s.l.) on limestone-sand soils, direct press, spontaneous fermentation and ageing on the lees for 7 months in French oak for seven months. The result is a remarkably fresh wine, Chablis-like but with a character of its own, firm acidity (6.5 gr/l), lemon and apple, lovely tension and harmony, energetic but tranquil, with a nice salinity on th finish.

  • 2020 Tornai Juhfark Nagy-Somló Top Selection Aranyhegy 91 Points

    Hungary, Balaton, Nagy-Somló

    Made from 100% Juhfark from the Aranyhegy vineyard, basalt soils, spontaneous fermentation and ageing for 10 months in oak, 13.5% ABV. Quite a rich and textural wine with some residual sugar (3.4 gr/l) but acidity to match (5.4 gr/l), honey and apricot flavours, dried fruit and limetree blossom, spicy minerality, good length. Very individualistic and interesting wine.

  • 2023 Parusso Dolcetto d'Alba Piani Noce 91 Points

    Italy, Piedmont, Alba, Dolcetto d'Alba

    Delightful Dolcetto, flowers (violet, rose), apricots and cherries, orange, hint of pepper, elegant weight (12.5%), dry and crisp but nicely balanced by the ripeness of the fruit, pure and bright, mild but engaging tannic grip, whiff of cherry stones, juicy bitters, lovely length.
