Olivier Ravoire Chateauneuf du Pape 2019 - $39.99

Tardieu Laurent Vacqueyras Vieilles Vignes 2020 - $29.99
"Detailed and fresh, with flecks of candied raspberry, damson and baking spices. Full-bodied, smooth, well balanced and harmonious, this is classically Vacqueyras in character, with a little added polish. The alcohol is high, but this is nonetheless very good." -Rated 92pts Decanter

Tardieu Laurent Gigondas Vieilles Vignes 2020 - $38.99
"This old-vine Gigondas tantalizes the nose with heady aromas of red cherries and rosehip, which are elegantly framed by a touch of clove. The palate is rich and wound with plenty of energy in the midpalate that presents concentrated red cherries, strawberries, cassis, violets and green peppercorn. Generous and textured with persistent tannins that should integrate seamlessly after cellaring well through 2030+."

Tardieu Laurent Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes 2019 - $54.99
"The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Spéciale is similarly deep purple hued and has a ripe, sexy style that's very much in the vintage. Loads of black raspberries, Asian spices, candied flowers, and peppery garrigue give way to a full-bodied, concentrated, powerful wine with terrific balance, plenty of ripe and polished tannins, and a great finish. It's a ripe, opulent wine that stays graceful and beautifully balanced. My money is on it benefiting from 4-5 years of bottle age, and it should have two decades of longevity."

Tardieu Laurent Saint Joseph Vieilles Vignes 2020 - $36.99
"A sleek, meaty red, this layers fresh and steeped cherry with singed apple wood, charred bacon fat and cracked peppercorn. Green herbs offset sweet oak spice and the tannins are well-tamed, providing a cashmere frame for the silky, refreshingly savory finish. Drink now through 2030. 750 cases made, 200 cases imported." -Rated 93pts Wine Spectator
ALSO RATED: 92pts Decanter

Pierre de Fontval Cairanne 2020 - $15.99
"Rich dense nose; lovely ripe red fruit on the bouquet and palate, with spice, coffee bean, vanilla and some leathery characters coming through. Smooth, expansive and mouthfilling with ripe fruit. The tannins are equally ripe, supple, and polished; good concentration and freshness too. Long, peppery finish."
-Rated 95pts Decanter (Gold Medal, DWWA 2022)

Ch d'Haurets Bordeaux Blanc 2022 - $9.99
Pale yellow color with greenish tints. The nose has a delicate balance of white flowers and fresh fruit. The taste is very elegant, with length and a fine balance of softness and freshness.
