2016 Didier Dagueneau Silex
93 points
Floral and bone dry. Has some mint leaves and petroleum but also a touch of exotic fruit. Perhaps a bit singular at the moment.
White
2016 Richard Leroy Chenin Les Noëls de Montbenault
93 points
Petroleum and oil barrels but also yellow apples and a crazy acidity. Lovely wine but also a bit odd/funky.
White
2014 Domaine Guiberteau Saumur Blanc Clos des Carmes Brézé

Lots of citrus and oak. Smoke, coffee and just an insane acidity. Crazy wine.

2015 Miani Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso Cossut
93 points
Very powerful, young and intense. Lots of dark fruit and a huge acidity!! Almost have a liquor note to it but it never really goes over the top.
Exciting and interesting wine. It will certainly be a lot more fun with more age. 93p+

Quite funky barnyard with raspberry and coffee. Slightly sweet but a nice structure and acidity. Nice and "clean" flavors.
It does however have some dried meats and dirt in the aftertaste. Lovely wine!

2016 Realm Cellars The Falstaff

Extremely young and a lot of black fruits with a touch of vanilla. The wine is lovely and pure in its structure.
Overall, a wonderful wine but just way to young and very difficult to get an impression of with just one glass. 94-96p

Packed with mint and eucalyptus and perhaps even some juniper. There is lots of marzipan and almonds but also some sweet liquorice.
