Maggy Hawk
2023 Pet-Nat
93 Points Clive Pursehouse, Decanter

This pét-nat comes from the Maggy Hawk estate vineyard, block 8, with a single clone, 115 Pinot Noir. The fruit was intended for a still-white Pinot Noir, so the juice was gently pressed from the grapes before being transferred into a small stainless steel tank, where it could ferment spontaneously with ambient yeast. The fermentation was stopped before going fully dry. With aromas of peach ring candies, it's very peachy and pleasing on the palate, with candied apricot, white peach pastry cream, and a brilliant minerality that lifts the finish.

Copain
2021 Côte Bannie Pinot Noir
93 Points Tom Capo, Wine Enthusiast Magazine Hidden Gem

Deep and enticing spiced plum aromas swirl on the nose of this wine, giving way to black cherry, blackberry, cedar and black-tea flavors on the palate. The finish is energetic and long, bringing whispers of earth, mushroom, cinnamon and orange peel. Hidden Gem. —T.R.C.

Cambria
2021 Clone 23 Pinot Noir
93 Points Matt Kettman, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

Raspberry, thyme and fennel pollen make for an engagingly delicate nose on this clonal study. The palate is more expansive, showing cranberry, bay leaf and citrus peel flavors that range from sharp to broad in expression. —M.K.

Yangarra Estate Vineyard
2022 Estate Shiraz
93 Points Stuart Knox, The Real Review

Deep, almost impenetrable ruby red colour. Mulberry, mocha and black olive tapenade aromatics. Rich and dense black and purple fruits fill the senses. It carries serious fruit intensity but as it builds we see layers of ferrous minerals and rosemary undertones. Good length with finely built tannins ensuring a dry finish. Still youthful, and cellaring will be well rewarded

Yangarra Estate Vineyard
2022 Estate Shiraz
93 Points Huon Hooke, The Real Review

Bright, deep purple colour; aromas of dark plum and blackberry with a slightly smoked-meaty reductive overtone. The wine is rich and deeply fruit-sweet on the palate. Blackberry conserve. Luscious fruit and abundant soft, powdery tannins.

Yangarra Estate Vineyard
2024 Piquepoul
93 Points Jim Gordon, JamesSuckling.com

A very fresh and vibrant wine from this obscure southern French variety. Aromas of lemon confit, orange blossoms and grapefruit rind. The palate is light- to medium-bodied with precise acidity, giving notes of lemon peel, ocean spray and oyster shells. Delicious. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Maggy Hawk
2021 Unforgettable Pinot Noir
93 Points Clive Pursehouse, Decanter

Sourced from five blocks of the Maggy Hawk vineyard, this Pinot offers a bold and rustic take on Anderson Valley. It opens with a mix of peppery and savoury aromas, dried herbs and an earthy, soily, grounded character. On the palate, ripe fruit pairs with the brightness of crunchy berries, creating a lovely contrast of freshness and richness. A good level of acidity keeps things interesting with well-integrated tannins.

Siduri
2022 Gran Moraine Vineyard Pinot Noir
93 Points Owen Bargreen, OwenBargreen.com

The 2022 ‘Grand Moraine’ comes from this outstanding site in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. This underwent just a touch of whole cluster fermentation. Stored in 30% new French oak for 14 months before bottling, this offers red currants and tobacco on the nose alongside stony minerals. Loaded with crunchy red fruit this shows beautiful body and texture. Enjoy now and over the next ten plus years. Drink 2024-2035

Siduri
2022 Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands
93 Points Owen Bargreen, OwenBargreen.com

The 2022 Siduri ‘Santa Lucia Highlands’ Pinot Noir offers orange rind and beautiful red florals on the nose with red raspberry notes. Filled with class and texture, this is a rich wine filled with weight and overall tension. Drink 2024-2030

Château Lassègue
2021 Lassègue
93 Points Georgina Hindle, Decanter

Smells strong and concentrated with lots of oak and dark fruit nuances. Cool blue fruit with vanilla and tobacco, still needs time to harmonise and for the wood to integrate and as such isn't giving total balance and connectivity right now. The texture is sleek, and there is weight and acidity, but the flavours need to meld a little. Confident and structured, shows lots of promise.

Château Lassègue
2015 Lassègue
93 Points Christopher Keiller, Decanter

Blackcurrant and vegetal notes with evident oak. Subtly enticing flavors of bruised plum and damson. The fresh palate is rich and exuberant, with lively fruit and a hint of salinity. Drink 2024-2036.

Penner-Ash
2022 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
93 Points Jeffrey Kralik, The Drunken Cyclist Outstanding

Red and black cherry on the nose, with a touch of earth. The palate is juicy, even really juicy with a hint of anise on the backend, but it works and this is tasty.

Gran Moraine
2021 Pinot Noir Yamhill-Carlton
93 Points Clive Pursehouse, Decanter

They take the top 20% of their site for this wine, about 15 blocks, with a fantastic melange of fruits, blue and red brambles, sweet cherries, hints of herbs, and mint. It's a nice balance of fruit and spice; the tension is lovely in the 21s, says winemaker Shane Moore. Released early with the lack of a 2020 vintage for the brand.

Diatom
2023 Chardonnay
93 Points James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com

An unoaked chardonnay that's full-bodied but balanced and amazingly rich in ripe fruit. Flavors of lemons, green apples, pineapple. mangoes, minerals and chalk. Harvested late in the year, fermented in steel tanks, then bottled and sold early while it's fresh and racy in texture. Despite not aging in barrels, it offers good butter and spices considering how crisp and tangy it is. Drink now.

Cambria
2023 Katherine's Vineyard
93 Points James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com

Achieves excellent balance between a tangy feel and generous flavors. Quite toasty, flinty and nervy in aromas before a ripe, buttery palate delivers good richness and length. Minerals and sea salt on the nose, then bright pineapple, baked apple, butter and lemon zest on the palate. Drink now or hold.

Giant Steps
2022 Primavera Vineyard Pinot Noir
93 Points MaryAnn Worobiec, Wine Spectator

Impressive for its purity and fleshy black cherry flavors, with details of pomegranate, strawberry and fresh herb details of thyme, sage and rosemary on a crisp, juicy frame. Accents of cherry cola and red licorice, as well as polished tannins. leave a lasting impression on the finish. Drink now through 2035.

Tenuta di Arceno
2021 Il Fauno Toscana IGT
93 Points Don Winkler, International Wine Review

The Il Fauno Bordeaux blend is dark ruby red in color with aromas of cassis, plum and lavender.  A delicious, medium plus weight wine that offers refinement in the glass.  Excellent value.

Mt. Brave
2019 Merlot
93 Points Tim Fish, Wine Spectator

Dark and brooding but retains a sense of finesse, with blackberry and red currant flavors that take on mocha, dusty herbs and spices.

2021 Merlot
93 Points Tom Capo, Wine Enthusiast Magazine Cellar Selection

This deeply extracted and spice driven Merlot farmed at just under 3,000 feet of elevation displays aromas of dark-chocolate-covered cherry, cinnamon and pepper. The palate gives flavors of ripe black plum, tobacco and rich minerality in a powerful tannic framework. Although the wine needs time to evolve, it will be excellent with hearty meat courses in time.

Zena Crown
2021 Conifer Vineyard Pinot Noir
93 Points Tim Fish, Wine Spectator

Spirited and handsomely built, with expressive flavors of cherry and blueberry accented by anise and juniper berry as this builds tension toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032. 639 cases made.

Hartford Court
2022 Hailey's Block Pinot Noir
93 Points Tom Capo, Wine Enthusiast Magazine

The nose of this Pinot gives punchy aromas of dusty cherry, spiced raspberry compote and sassafras. The silky palate brings rich dark-cherry fruit with a wide streak of raspberry lime acid and clove. Cinnamon lingers across the finish.
