"Distinctive aromas and flavors of mint, lanolin and white flowers augment the green apple and lemon notes in this bracing white, which is long and mouthwatering, with a refreshing, salty finish."

"Marked by a vanilla note and propelled by vivid acidity, this white delivers green apple, lemon and stony mineral flavors. On the sharp side, with a lip-smacking finish."

“This deep ruby-colored wine has aromas of cassis, cocoa powder and lavender. There is a sense of brightness on the palate among velvety tannins and pomegranate, Mission fig, milk chocolate, licorice and orange-zest flavors.”

"Precise and detailed, with handsome baked apple and cherry flavors that take on cinnamon brioche and zesty ginger accents, which build richness on the finish."

"Pure and silky, offering cherry, raspberry, floral, sandalwood and oak spice aromas and flavors, this gains depth from earth and mineral notes as it builds to the long, intense finish. Shows terrific balance overall, yet this will require six to eight years to hit its stride."

"Cherry, boysenberry and floral flavors are the main themes, along with an earthy, feral note, shaded by sandalwood and sweet oak spices..."

“Exudes aromas of heliotrope and rose petals, cherries, red plums, oak leaf and sweet spices. The medium to full-bodied wine offers an anchor of fine-knit, powdery tannins with lines of succulent acids that emphasize the tanginess of the concentrated cherry fruit flavors and highlight the complementary layers of dried herbs and cracked peppercorns underneath, culminating in a wispy, salivating finish marked with lasting flavor and a slight patina of cedar spice.”

“The 2021 Moulin-à-Vent La Rochelle is compelling on the nose with aromas of dried rose petals, Earl Grey tea, rosewood tree bark and cherries. The palate is medium to full-bodied with a blackberry core, tinged with orange rinds. It has a soft, velvety texture, lingering on the palate uniformly, leading to a finish that dissolves with a hopeful fleck of wet stone.”

"Restrained dark bramble fruit and vibrant spiciness, with notes of cold coffee, earth and bay leaves. The attack is dense and velvety, with thick, ripe tannins that are a bit sandy. Ripe and full-bodied with crisp acidity and good length focused on graphite. Power and grace, with a restrained chocolate aftertaste.”

“The 2021 Moulin-à-Vent Les Vérillats wafts pleasantly from the glass with aromas of tangy raspberries, red and black cherries, purple blossoms and sweet spices. On the palate, the wine displays a nicely concentrated fruit profile interspersed with flecks of white peppercorns, oak leaves and aniseed. It progresses leisurely along an upward trajectory, guided by bright acids and a tight-knit structure of chalky tannins that persist after the fruit fades away for a composed finish.”

"Inky in the glass with almost no rim. Aromas of cloves, coconut, graphite, dark lush bramble fruit, plums and cherries. Full-bodied with great concentration of fruit and a super-dense and velvety palate. Extremely rich, but balanced by crisp acidity and thick yet dynamic and chewy tannins. Amazing finish of salted chocolate. A superpower Amarone with grace.”
