92 Points- Andreas Larsson. The Batuta Tinto is one of Portugal’s greatest red wines. The brainchild of Dirk Niepoort, it's predominantly a blend of Malvasía, Rufete, Tinta Amarela, Tinta Roriz, and Touriga Francesa produced from vineyards that are between 70 and 100 years old. Grapes are painstakingly vinified to give a wine that is full of red berry flavours, yet is refined and elegant, before 22 months in oak adds even greater complexity and depth.

92 Points - International Wine Report. No ordinary Bordeaux Superieur, Chateau Lagrave Paran is nestled on a micro-property spanning approximately 3.5 hectares, this under-the-radar winemaker lavishes each vine with the utmost care, resulting in excellent wines year after year. The wine's soft, maturing black-currant fruits reflect the vintage's relative lightness, while oak aging gracefully smooths the tannins and imparts a final, juicy character.

Viandante is the boldest creation of Viandante del Cielo, a wine of structure and poise modelled on the great vintages of Bordeaux, dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with an important Merlot supporting act. The varieties may be international, but the lakeside terroir exerts a strong influence and makes this a distinctly Umbrian variation on the theme.  Vivino Rating: 4.2 (Apr 2024) Taste Dark ruby with violet tinge, complex and lifted nose of cigar box, blackcurrant leaf and crunchy morello cherry

95 Points - Faltstaff. Solengo was the brainchild of the legendary winemaker and father of Super Tuscan wines, Giacomo Tachis. The first vintage was 1995 and is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Sangiovese. The wines are aged in French barriques for twelve months and are blended just before the bottling. A long period in bottle follows before the finished Solengo is released. Solengo, by the way, means solitary wild boar in Tuscan, and describes perfectly the regal, powerful,

96 Points - Vinous.com. In a pivotal moment of celebration, dating back to the 1987 vintage, Laurent-Perrier, revered as the non-vintage rosé champagne category's ultimate benchmark, sought to transcend its own excellence. This pursuit of perfection gave rise to the exquisite Alexandra Rosé Millésimé. This rare and coveted wine is the culmination of a meticulous selection process and crafted from the most exceptional Pinot Noir Grands Crus and Chardonnay plots. It all began as a tribute to owner

In the centre of the Côte-Rôtie appellation, in the municipality of Ampuis, stands the locality of “Bonnivières”, a handsome east-facing hillside of mica schist where this Cuvee is grown. A typical Côte Brune wine, Bonnivières is full-bodied, but not excessive, with discreet oak and a superb velvety structure. Complex and profound, with a nose of dark fruits, spice, tobacco, and a faint roasted edge, the Bonnivières 2017 is drinking beautifully now, but could still be laid down for years to come
