This very youthful and tightly wound Corton is refined, but also has a fascinating dark side. I love the candied orange, dried flower and hot dry earth character that is woven into the deep, beautifully ripe red fruit aromas. Great concentration and a stack of fine tannins on the compact, medium- to full-bodied palate. Very long, powerful licorice and spice finish. Drink or hold.

A very aromatic wine for this commune, with flinty energy accenting the sour cherry and red rose aromas. Still quite firm at the front of the medium-bodied palate, but the compact chalky minerality gives this impressive depth in the focused finish. Excellent aging potential. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

I love the violet aromas of this excellent Pommard village. Then on the compact, medium- to full-bodied palate there’s a wealth of licorice and wet earth alongside the ample black cherry fruit. Gentle tannins in the context of this commune, which is famous for firm wines, the velvet finish pulling you back for more. From two sites, including the part of Rugiens that isn’t 1er Cru. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

This Auixey-Duresses marries considerable intensity with a striking freshness that the moderately dry tannins accentuate. This may be slightly austere, but on the sleek, medium-bodied palate it has the structure to age. From a little-known, almost south-facing site in this commune that’s better known for whites. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

This Savigny-les-Beaune has more delicacy than a lot of wines from what is often considered a blockbuster vintage for red Burgundy. It’s brimming with sour cherries and just beginning to pick up some of the earthy notes of early maturity. Beautiful balance for a non-1er Cru wine from Savigny. A nicely rounded, medium-bodied palate with an almost soft finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

This is an impressive Bordeaux for $25. There is good lift on the nose with heightened peony florality, raspberry, fresh cedar and basil. It is medium-full bodied, fairly plush and dense yet nicely strcutured, with quite gritty somewhat green and bitter tannin. Give it three years; should last beyond 2030 The length is excellent.

This is a fine wine, rich and dense from a 43-acre vineyard in the west of the appellation. The alcohol is fully integrated with the ripe tannins from 12 months in wood, now softening and releasing the black-currant flavors. Drink from 2026.

A lovely aromatic profile marked by freshness, with concentrated notes of raspberry and plum, and a touch of herbs alongside hints of vanilla and cedar. Structured, with firm, chalky tannins that will integrate further after a few years in the bottle. Drink within seven to nine years. (Tasted blind at NWAC 2026.)

Half cabernet franc red blend with (38) merlot, (7) cabernet sauvignon, (4) malbec, and (1) “other grapes.” Tannic beast mode of a Bordeaux blend, heavy wood and fuel, angular, triangulated and in the present strangulated by structure. Tough sledding ahead with years needed to soften the blows. Drink 2027-2030. Tasted blind at NWACs 2026, June 2026.

The South Okanagan Phantom Creek Cab Franc comes from estate blocks on both sides of the valley: The fresher, vibrant red fruit and spice come from Kobau Vineyard on the Golden Mile Bench; while the warm, showy, generous black fruit are from the east side Black Sage Bench. It's the blending that creates the magic here, balancing the best of both worlds and giving this franc a spicy red fruit vibrancy and a plush texture all dusted with sagebrush. The alcohol is below 15% this year, helping with the drinkability. Serve with any dish you like, as nothing will be too big for this red, while it's young.

Punset

While the vineyards that form Punset have been farmed by the Marcarino family for generations, it is truly thanks to Marina and her incredible energy that the estate is how it is nowadays. In the 1980s, she decided to pursue organic farming – a demanding choice that was rewarded by becoming the first estate to receive the organic certification in Italy. Her passion for the soil and the environment led her to embrace biodynamics and the agronomic philosophy of Manasobu Fukuoka. From one of the healthiest vineyards in Italy, Marina crafts wines that brim with life, energy, and pure terroir.
Known for the very first certified organic Barbaresco of Italy, Marina continues to show the world that you can preserve tradition and think of the future simultaneously.

Intense menthol and dark fruit aromas segue to a tight and drying palate, showing both sapidity and salinity. There's freshness of acidity and purity of cool black and blue fruits in the background – but at present it remains veiled behind the wood. This needs time but will come good. Since last year, Fabio Motta has been under majority control of Agricole Gussalli Beretta, the historic arms manufacturers who already own several other wineries in Italy.

Heirloom Vineyards

Heirloom Vineyards was conceived in vintage 2000, when a young winemaking student caught the eye of a silly old wine judge. A love story ensued inspired by two vows: To preserve the best of tradition, the old world of wine and our unique old vineyards and to champion the best clones of each variety planted in the most appropriate sites embracing the principals of organic farming. Seven long vintages of trial and error passed before Heirloom Vineyards could make a wine that was fine enough to pass on to future generations. That is this wine.

Beautifully fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows dark fruit intensity, roasted nut, star anise and rich floral aromas, leading to a succulent palate that's splendidly weighted and generously textured. It's plump and flavoursome with a lengthy, velvety finish. At its best: now to 2034.

About the Winery
Ca' del Monte

Ca del Monte is situated on the hillsides overlooking the village of Negrar, in the heart of Valpolicella. It has belonged to the same family for generations, and is now run by brothers Umberto and Giuseppe Zaconte. There’s nothing fancy about this place. The house and winery are modest - and are attached to a 17th century monastery.
The estate is approximately 50 acres, and its 15-65 year old vines lie on gentle slopes at 800-900 meters. They grow on four soils including clay, limestone, red volcanic soil with red stones, and “Toar,” a green volcanic soil. The vineyards of Ca Del Monte are planted with 20-40 year old vines of Corvina, Rodinella and Molinara grapes that are planted in poor soils that stress the vines and nurture the fruit. All of the farming is done traditionally and non-certified organic.

Maturing, classically-styled ripasso here from the reliable house of del Monte, supple, smooth, well-balanced, juicy and silky. Flavours span the expected mature dark cherry spectrum, buffeted by gently resinous, old wood influence, with a mix of toasted almonds and dried herbs in an inviting ensemble. Length and depth more than deliver in the category. Fully ready to drink. Tasted January 2023.

Über traditional so far as Ripasso is concerned and exaggeratedly so due to an extra couple of years got behind this corvina and friends by Ca’ del Monte. Persistent though, a juicy, juicy version with plenty of freshness and generosity with thanks to bright acids keeping the energy alive. Nice Ripasso indeed to serve a purpose in our lives, mainly to match a good braise in these cold winter months. Drink 2023-2025. Tasted January 2023.

More refreshing than heavy, this well-balanced Ripasso style Valpolicella is effortlessly drinkable. The tannins have mellowed but still give a healthy bit of tack to the palate. Features an appealing degree of verve, authenticity and notable length. Gracefully matured and ready to drink. Best now to 2025. Tasted January 2023.

About the Winery
Villa Calcinaia

Nestled in the rolling hills of Greve in Chianti, Villa Calcinaia is one of Chianti Classico’s historic estates, stewarded by the Capponi family since 1524. For more than five centuries, the family has cultivated these vineyards with a deep respect for tradition, place, and the enduring character of Sangiovese.
The estate spans sun-drenched slopes, olive groves, and woodlands that frame vineyards rooted in galestro and alberese soils—hallmarks of great Chianti Classico. Here, elevation, exposure, and soil diversity converge to shape wines of elegance, structure, and unmistakable terroir.
Villa Calcinaia’s philosophy marries heritage with thoughtful innovation. Vineyard work is guided by sustainable practices and careful parcel selection, and the estate’s wines are certified organic, reflecting a long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship and the health of the land. In the cellar, the approach favors gentle extraction and patient aging to preserve purity of fruit and nuance of site. The result is a portfolio that captures the soul of Chianti Classico—from vibrant, expressive bottlings to refined Riservas and Gran Selezione wines that reward time in the cellar.
At Villa Calcinaia, winemaking is not a trend but a legacy—an unbroken conversation between land, family, and vine that continues to define the estate’s distinctive voice within Chianti Classico.

Loamy with Alberese grip and warmth from a season of unavoidable truth to gift darker fruit. Namely sangiovese with 10 percent canaiolo to level out the balance between pH and acidity for harmony and elasticity. Feels like success out of a challenge presented. Last tasted October 2025.
The current vintage for the winery and cellar built circa 1763 by Ferdinand Capponi is undeniably aromatic in the ways of this estate’s consistent Chianti Classico Annata from the west bank above the Greve River. A mix of humid concrete, herbal brush, Amaro and nut toasty warmth. Shakes of silty salt and white pepper for a seasoned Annata grown, raised and bottled for all the good reasons. Drink 2026-2029. Tasted September 2025.

Bodegas Puiggròs

Since 1843, the Puiggros family has been producing wines from their own vines in the Odena region of Catalunya for the family and close friends. Over generations they had come to realize that their vineyards and techniques were something worth sharing with the world. A sincere dedication to the terroir in their zone and the indigenous varieties that grow there, allows them to constantly discover ways to unlock all of the magic that lies within their land.
Starting with conscious and clean farming in the vineyard, they hand-harvest only the best fruit for their production, and ferment each vineyard separately in varying vessels to accentuate what the vines have to show; some in stainless steel, and many in clay amphora of differing sizes. All the while seeing very little sulfur use (if any) until bottling. Puiggros is pushing the quality of northeastern Spain's wines forward, and doing so in a clean and unique way.
Weingut Matthias Hager

The Hager Matthias winery is located in the small village of Mollands in the Kamptal area of Lower Austria. Matthias took over the 12-hectare land and the family business at an early age. He aims to produce the best quality wine possible and to focus on being in balance with nature. The lands are cultivated according to biodynamic principles and are certified Demeter.
Matthias has a vast knowledge about plants and insects, and about keeping the flora and fauna in harmony with the vines. Matthias Hager is one of the most experimental winemakers in the Kamptal region, Austria. He understood early how to work with different soil types from loess to clay. He established different product lines to highlight these differences: the blue one representing fresh, lively wines including Grüner Veltliner and Sauvignon Blanc; and the brown line gravitating towards more earthy, flavourful produce and the red line stands for no sulphites!

This pours very pale garnet, quite typical of PEC pinot. The nose is quite reserved too but pretty with classic redcurrant, red cherry fruit, light toast and barrel spice, with some mulched grass character. It is light to medium bodied, tart-edged and juicy with more flavour intensity than the colour leads one to expect. Lots of sour cherry pit flavour on the finish. Excellent length. Tasted May 2026

Cortonesi

“I’m a lucky man who has been given the opportunity to realize my dream and continue my family’s efforts making wine in the land where I was born.” – Tommaso Cortonesi
Tommaso is third-generation winemaker at Cortonesi that owns some of the most prized vineyards in the north and south-east of Montalcino. Favourable geography, rocky soils, and ingenious winemaking all come together to create some of the region's deepest and most elegant Brunello wines.
The Cortonesi family has been making wine since the 1970s. At first, wines were made to be enjoyed by family, friends and neighbours, but then in 1985, Cortonesi had gained enough traction within their community that they began to offer their wines commercially. Today, Cortonesi remains a family business that continues to work according to tradition, while employing modern technologies to the enhance the quality of their production.
Lovers of Sangiovese must experience “La Mannella”, a collection of wines exclusively sourced from Cortonesi's private vine land. This farm covers 56 hectares, eight of which are devoted to the production of some of the world's most coveted and age-worthy Brunello di Montalcino.

Just bottled one week ago and hello to a '23 that Tommaso Cortonesi says is "very close to the Rosso di Montalcino style that I want for my winery." Tommaso has been working and honing his concept of Rosso for more than a decade and this first look at its next iteration seems somewhat of an aggressive one. That is the idea and Cortonesi admits how others who faced major 2023 challenges were jealous of the quality and quantity of La Mannella's harvest. Palate intensity is off the charts, there is a spicy element happening and structure is tops for Rosso. There are Brunello makers who would kill for this combination of substance and style. Drink 2026-2031. Tasted February 2025.

This is a youthful, slightly brittle pinot that could use a year or two in bottle. The nose is nicely lifted and promising with classic pinot cherry fruit, considerable barrel toast and spice, and an evergreen forest scent. It is mid-weight, quite firm and well balanced with 12.5% alcohol, some minerality and again those chippy tannin, drying the finish. The length is very good to excellent. Best 2028 to 2032.

This is a classic if lush expression of pinot noir, with notes of dark cherries, ripe strawberries, juicy black raspberries, and savoury dried herbs. Oak influence adds dimension here, in the shape of woody spices like nutmeg, cloves, and all-spice. Medium bodied, the palate is ripe, with an appealing impression of sweet fruit, grainy tannins, and juicy acidity. The finish is long, ending on a spice note. I would drink this over the next year or two. Tasted June 2026.

He is the 7th generation vigneron and joined his grandfather in Cornas in 1997. Previously, his family had only been farming and selling grapes. He practices biodynamic viticulture, obtaining very low yields (23 hl/ha) and extraordinary quality. He describes his wines as being 100% grape, with a very low sulphite addition. His wines are extremely clean, and, true to the Cornas character. Domaine du Coulet was founded by Matthieu Barret’s grandfather after WWII, and over the years has supplied grapes to some of the best known producers in the Northern Rhône, including Chapoutier and Delas. While his father eschewed the agrarian lifestyle, opting instead for a career in international business, Matthieu knew early on that he wanted to be a vigneron. In 1998 at the age of only 23, he took over the family’s 25 acres of well-situated vines on the terraced hillsides of Cornas.
From the beginning, Matthieu has employed natural, organic practices and by 2002 (his second year of production) the domaine received its biodynamic certification. With each vintage, Matthieu has gained a better understanding of his vine parcels and through thoughtful experimentation, he now turns out a remarkable selection of Cornas wines that express the unique nuances of each micro-terroir. No new oak, no racking, minimal use of sulfur and no fining or filtration. Pure, sexy Syrah.
Heinrich Weingut

Heinrich Winery believes great wines express a true sense of place — something best achieved when vines thrive within a biologically diverse environment where soil vitality and natural symbiosis are preserved. Their ultimate aspiration is to let nature speak through their wines, guided by ethical and qualitative principles that shape every decision. Since converting to biodynamic viticulture in 2006, their goal has been to make the vineyards more resilient, vital, and diverse. Embracing minimal intervention, all wines ferment spontaneously, often spending weeks on the skins and aging unadulterated on their lees, primarily in used wooden barrels. Time — whether weeks or years — plays the central role in shaping their character, allowing each wine to develop balance and a distinctive aromatic profile. Through careful observation and minimal influence, they remain committed to crafting authentic, genuine wines that faithfully reflect their origin.
Punset

While the vineyards that form Punset have been farmed by the Marcarino family for generations, it is truly thanks to Marina and her incredible energy that the estate is how it is nowadays. In the 1980s, she decided to pursue organic farming – a demanding choice that was rewarded by becoming the first estate to receive the organic certification in Italy. Her passion for the soil and the environment led her to embrace biodynamics and the agronomic philosophy of Manasobu Fukuoka. From one of the healthiest vineyards in Italy, Marina crafts wines that brim with life, energy, and pure terroir.
Known for the very first certified organic Barbaresco of Italy, Marina continues to show the world that you can preserve tradition and think of the future simultaneously.

90 points (2021) - John Szabo, MS
Aged exclusively in stainless steel tank, Maçanita's 2021 Douro red pours a deep purple colour and delivers a raft of ripe, plush dark fruit, fig and plum, also some dried/desiccated fruit character. Tannins are soft and plush, acids also on the lower, riper side, conspiring to yield a full-bodied, round and voluptuous texture. It's a wine to enjoy now or over the near term, immediately accessible and enjoyable. Lots of pleasure here. Tasted September 2024.
