Castelprile
Cabernet Sauvignon, Maremma Toscana DOC – 2010

The nose is complex, displaying aromas of blackberry and blueberry with hints of vanilla oak and cinnamon. On the palate, the wine is well-structured, showing red fruits and smooth, well-integrated tannins, with a long finish.

Mas La Chevalière
Rosé, IGP Pays d’Oc – 2011

This wine is a light rose-petal pink color with complex aromas of strawberry, tropical fruit and subtle floral notes. There is a fragrant red berry character in the mouth with fine, crisp acidity and a zesty finish.

Kumeu River
Chardonnay, Hunting Hill, Kumeu – 2008

This wine displays attractive floral notes, restrained elegance and a silky texture. Delightful aromas of lime and white flowers are reminiscent of the “gloriously pure Puligny” description that Jancis Robinson gave our 1989 Kumeu River Chardonnay.

“This wine’s soft, supple texture lures you in…Peach, apricot nectar and baked apple flavors mingle with nutmeg, mineral, cedar and fig paste details, as a fresh acidity keeps all the notes vibrant.”

“This is both rich and juicy, displaying a smoky, floral note that dances around the ripe tangerine, yellow apple and melon flavors. Offers a supple texture, with details of marzipan and lanolin.”

Wine Spectator

“Rich and deep…toasted hazelnut, fig and citrus flavors that have a smooth texture and vibrant acidity. The aromatics are the star here, with honeysuckle, lemon zest and green apple notes that leap out of the glass and push through on the finish.”

“Aromatic, soft and supple, with honey, butterscotch and toasted brioche notes that are as intense as they appear effortless. This delivers plenty of lemon and pear flavors, with a long finish.”

Pinot Noir Route 99W, Willamette Valley – 2010

Wine & Spirits
90 points; Year's Best Pinot Noir

“This wine’s scents of wild cherry and red plum are framed by a pleasant nut-skin bitterness. The texture is brisk and light; the nuttiness becomes more savory and vinous with air; fresh acidity guides the wine to a terse finish.”

“An ultra-pure and high-toned nose of mineral-based reduction, spiced pear and acacia blossom gives way to overtly stony and quite finely detailed broad-shouldered flavors that…are crystalline in their transparency.”

“…What impresses me more is just how refined this is even in the context of a vintage that is not naturally given to much refinement. A knockout and for the first time in recent memory, this is every bit as good as the Bâtard in 2009.”

"The supple, round and imposingly scaled big-bodied flavors are impressively concentrated and while quite powerful, they are also quite seductively textured before culminating in an explosive yet impeccably well-balanced finish."

"...in particular pear, leads to rich, forward and wonderfully opulent medium-bodied flavors that brim with dry extract that coats the palate on the refined and impressively long finish."

“A very ripe yellow fruit and floral infused nose complements to perfection the rich, full-bodied and powerful flavors that also possess an opulent mid-palate, all wrapped in a palate staining and seductively textured finish."

“…mostly yellow orchard fruit aromas hint at the presence of mango and papaya…round and mouth coating flavors exude plenty of dry extract that buffers the moderately firm acid spine on the lightly mineral-driven and persistent finish.”

“…exotic aromas along with the more classic scents…There is very good verve and punch to the detailed and mineral-inflected middle weight flavors that culminate in a focused, complex and solidly long finish.”

“…impressive size and weight to the dramatically powerful, rich and concentrated big-bodied flavors that possess obvious muscle and simply fantastic length on the overtly austere, deep and palate staining finish. This is a dazzling effort…”

“This notches up the ripeness just a touch more yet there are no hints of exoticism to the peach, apricot, pear and acacia blossom aromas that display a top note of citrus zest."

92-95 points, Don't Miss!, Outstanding

“It's never clear in advance between the Combettes and Pucelles as to which of them will be the best 1er in the Leflaive cellars but in 2010 it's simply no contest because while the Combettes is indeed impressive…Pucelles is just at another level.”
