Verkostungsnotiz von Lisa Perrotti-Brown vom 31. Oktober 2019:

Bottled in January 2019, the 2016 Insignia is a blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 1% Malbec, aged for 24 months in 100% new French oak barrels. Deep garnet-purple colored, the nose is a little reticent to begin, needing a fair bit of coaxing to reveal beautifully beguiling notions of wild blueberries, warm blackberries, black currant cordial, cloves and cedar chest with nuances of camphor, yeast extract, charcuterie and candied violets. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has fantastic elegance and depth, revealing loads of subtle floral, black fruit and earthy layers with a firm, very finely grained texture and seamless freshness, finishing with epic length. 13,400 cases were made.

Verkostungsnotiz von Lisa Perrotti-Brown vom 13. Dezember 2018:

A barrel sample made up of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot, 3% Cabernet Franc and 3% Malbec to be aged for 24 months in 100% new French oak, the 2016 Insignia Proprietary Red Wine has a deep garnet-purple color and is a little reticent at this still nascent stage (to be bottled in January 2019), opening out to reveal chocolate-covered cherries, wild blueberries and black raspberries with touches of underbrush, cedar chest and bouquet garni plus a hint of grilled meat. Medium to full-bodied, the palate springs forth with exciting energy, offering loads of red and black fruit layers and compelling herbal sparks, featuring a firm, fine-grained backbone and bags of freshness lifting the finish. 13,500 cases are expected to be made.

Verkostungsnotiz von James Suckling vom 03. Mai 2019:

Lovely density and intensity with dark berries, blueberries and inky undertones with hints of spice, chocolate and walnuts. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a flavorful finish. The texture and length are fantastic here. Complex. Hints of smoky wood at the end. This needs three to five years more in bottle age. Exciting wine. Try after 2022.

Verkostungsnotiz von Antonio Galloni vom Januar 2020:

The 2016 Insignia has turned out beautifully. Silky, layered and positively striking, the 2016 is magnificent. In this vintage. Insignia is especially silky. refined and understated, which is unusual for this wine that has often been more bombastic. Readers will have to be patient with the 2016, as it needs at least several years in bottle to be at its very best, but this is all finesse and class.

Ulysses 2015 Napa Valley by Christian Moueix

Ulysses - Das neue Projekt von dem Macher des Dominus Estate.

Christian Moueix hat Ulysses 2008 erworben und führt es nun stetig weiter an die Spitze des Napa Valley. Man kann den Ulysses als Bruder des Dominus sehen. Eine Cabernet Sauvignon dominierte Blend mit kleinen Anteilen von Cabernet Franc und Petit Verdot.

Lisa Parrotti Brown beschreibt den Ulysses wie folgt:

Possessing mere splashes of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon has a beautifully expressive crème de cassis nose with underlying black cherries, chocolate box, star anise and violets plus touches of pencil shavings and beef drippings. Medium to full-bodied, it delivers a quiet intensity of black fruits and restrained earthy layers supported by chewy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long with mineral and savory nuances. It has lovely elegance and depth. It needs another 2-3 years in bottle, then it should cellar gracefully over the next 20+ years. 1,000 cases were made.

Antonio Galloni beschreibt den Ulysses wie folgt:

The 2015 Ulysses brings together the richness of the year with a good bit of underlying support. Dark and powerful in the glass, but with silky tannins and striking purity of fruit, the 2015 is a wonderfully complete wine. Black cherry, plum, gravel, lavender and menthol give the 2015 many of its aromatic and flavor signatures. Readers will find much to admire in the 2015. The interplay of aromatics, fruit and structure places Ulysses among the finest wines of the vintage.

James Suckling beschreibt den Ulysses 2015 wie folgt:

Aromas of dark fruit, such as blackberries and black olives, as well as black tea and tanned leather. Raspberries and lemon spices, too. Full-bodied, very tight and polished with beautiful tannins and a weave of fruit and acidity to beautifully buttress the whole wine. Balanced and bright for the vintage. Drink in 2020 and onwards.

Dominus Estate 2013 Dominus Napa Valley Christian Moueix

Dominus 2013 Dominus Estate Napa Valley

Beschreibung für den Dominus 2013

Dominus 2013 captures the deep character of the Napanook Vineyard. and unfolds with magnificent dimension. Blue and purple fruit. violets and earth unite in a wine whose
aging potential is unlimited.
“In Napa. the 2013 vintage is. for me. the vintage of a lifetime.” - Christian Moueix

2 0 1 3 D O M I N U S Napa Valley
2013 was characterized by a very dry spring and a consistently warm summer/early fall. Only 6.4 inches of rainfall were recorded from January to June (versus 17.7 inches average).
Low reserves of soil water limited vine growth. While average temperatures remained warm throughout spring and summer. no heat spikes were recorded in July. August or September.
In terms of thermal time (growing degree days). the season was 18 days ahead of the norm at the beginning of harvest (September 10).
Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon: 89%. Petit Verdot: 7%. Cabernet Franc: 4%

Antonio Galloni für Vinous im Oktober 2015:

The 2013 Dominus overwhelms all the senses with its magnificent overall balance and towering intensity. Deep and nearly impenetrable in the glass. the 2013 boasts off the charts dry extract and overall power. Violets. smoke. black cherries. menthol. incense. crème de cassis and dark spices are some of the many signatures that take shape in the glass. Even better in bottle than it was in barrel. the 2013 is utterly magnificent. This is a remarkably vivid. nuanced wine considering its sheer size.

James Suckling beschreibt ihn am 13. September 2016 wie folgt:

The aromas to this are multidimensional and fascinating with black truffles. bark. cloves. black currants. citrus. and even ginseng. Full-bodied. yet reserved and austere with chewy and powerful tannins that remain polished and refined. The flavors are more umami and savory. Then there are forest fruits and blood-orange undertones. The wine goes on for minutes. A wine to age for a lifetime. It's an experience to taste this. A new classic showing its history and tradition as a source of the greatest wines ever from Napa. A wine to enjoy forever.

Robert M. Parker Jr. 30. Oktober 2015:

The 2013 Dominus is. to my way of thinking. one of the most profound wines Christian Moueix has yet made in his rather brilliant winemaking history. both in France and in Napa Valley. This wine. with very low yields of only 3.500 cases and a final blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon. 7% Petit Verdot and 4% Cabernet Franc. offers up notes of cedar wood. forest floor. loamy soil and oodles of blackberry and blackcurrant fruit. Very opaque purple in color. super-pure and intense. this wine has low acidity. but ripe. noticeable tannins. This is a 30- to 40-year wine and a profound effort from this famous vineyard in Yountville. Drink it over the next 40+ years.

Philip Togni 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Antonio Galloni beschreibt den Philip Togni 2014 Cabernet Sauvvignon EstateDezember 2016 wie folgt:

Togni's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is quite dark and powerful. but also very much medium in body. Graphite. smoke, savory herbs, mint, leather and a core of inky dark red and purplish fruit infuse this deep, beautifully layered Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2014 is a wine built on energy and aromatics that won't hit its stride until at least age ten.

03.07.2024 Joe Czerwinski:

Togni's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, verkostet als 10-Jahres-Jubiläumsedition im Weingut, zeigt erste Reife mit komplexen Noten von Erde, Cassis, Mokka, Tabak, Zigarrenkiste und Vanille. Der Wein ist mittel- bis vollmundig, gleichzeitig fest und seidig, mit einem reifen, anhaltenden Abgang. Robert Parker bewertete diesen Wein bei seiner Veröffentlichung mit 94+ Punkten und bezeichnete ihn als einen der zugänglichsten Cabernets von Togni. Ich habe Jahrgänge von Philip Togni bis in die Mitte der 1980er Jahre und sie sind wahrhaft langlebige Klassiker des Napa Valley. Einer der besten Napa Cabernets, die ich je verkostet habe, war der 1969 Chappellet, den Togni bei Chappellet gemacht hat. Seine Weine bestehen die Zeitprobe, sind aber in ihrer Jugend manchmal etwas unzugänglich.

Quintessa 2019 Rutherford Napa Valley

James Suckling beschreibt den Quintessa 2019 am 27 Januar 2022:

So much earth and spice with walnut and wet earth. Like fog laying over the valley in the morning. Black fruit. Medium-to full-bodied with super-fine tannins that are long and persistent, with graceful progression and length on the palate. So long, with real definition. September 2022 release. From biodynamically grown grapes. Hard not to drink now, but will age wonderfully.

Joe Czerwinski im September 2022:

The 2019 Proprietary Red Wine is more open and effusive than the 2018 version, with gentle floral nuances set against a backdrop of black cherries and cassis, joined by subtle notes of tobacco, cedar and vanilla. In the mouth, it's medium to full-bodied, streamlined, silky and lush, nicely balanced and elegant, with a long, softly dusty finish tinged with licorice and caramel. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.

Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022:

I was blown away by the 2019 Red Blend from Quintessa, which is up with the crème de la crème of the vintage. Based on Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carmenère, this full-bodied beauty has a perfectly balanced, seamless, yet expansive and classic 2019 style as well as gorgeous aromatics of cassis, flowers, chalky minerality, and integrated oak. It’s hard to resist already, but I have no doubt this will evolve for 20 years if stored properly.

Champagne Larmandier-Bernier Les Chemins d Avize Grand Cru Extra Brut 2014

Champagne Larmandier-Bernier 2014 Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Les Chemins d'Avize - BIO

BIO

Zarte florale Aromen und eine einzigartige mineralische Dichte

Dieser großartige Champagner stammt ausschließlich von zwei Grand Cru-Lagen im Herzen des Dorfes Avize an den Orten "Chemin de Plivot" und "Chemin de Flavigny". Der Boden ist hier sehr karg und enorm kreidehaltig. Die 50 Jahre alten Rebstöcke können dadurch, und in Verbindung mit ihrem Alter, markant mineralische und zart florale Aromen in den Beeren einlagern. Um diese feingliedrige Stilistik zu erhalten, wird nur ganz schonend abgepresst. Nach der alkoholischen Gärung mit den bei Larmandier-Bernier obligatorischen einheimischen Hefestämmen und der Malo erfolgt eine Reifung auf der Feinhefe für mindestens 5 Jahre. Die Dosage beträgt nur 2 g/l.

Die Aromen erinnern bei ihm an gelben Apfel, Zitrus und exotische Früchte wie Feigen, reife Ananas und kandierte Rosinen. Auf der Gewürzebene entdeckt man beim zweiten Schnuppern dann auch Eindrücke von Zimt, Muskat und etwas weiße Schokolade. Am Gaumen entfalten sich ob des langen Hefekontakts und der naturnahen Vinifizierung beeindruckend lebhafte aber zugleich auch feingliedrige Noten. So entfacht der 'Les Chemins d'Avize' einerseits eine markante Säurestruktur, federt das aber wiederum auch sehr schön mit seiner feincremigen Textur ab. Auch hier wechseln sich die einzelnen Frucht- und Gewürzeindrücke angenehm ab und lassen das Genusserlebnis endlos lange und fein ausklingen.

Zum 2012er Champagne Larmandier-Bernier Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Les Chemins d'Avize notierte James Suckling im September 2019: 95 Punkte - "eine sehr reiche Nase mit intensiven gelben Pfirsichen und Zitrusfrüchten, die außergewöhnliche Reife und einige exotische Nuancen zeigen. Am Gaumen ist er verführerisch und rund, sehr ausdrucksstark und mit einer geschmeidigen, weichen und pastetenartigen Textur. Im Abgang Zitronencreme und Kuchenkruste." Und William Kelley meint Folgendes zum Jahrgang 2013:

William Kelley bewertet den Champagne Larmandier-Bernier Les Chemins d Avize Grand Cru Extra Brut 2013 am 30. April 2019:

Disgorged in October 2019, Larmandier-Bernier's 2013 Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Les Chemins d'Avize is showing brilliantly, unfurling in the glass with a lovely nose of citrus oil, fresh apricot, peach and pear, complemented by hints of fresh walnuts and almond paste. Full-bodied, deep and vinous, it's layered and elegantly muscular, with a concentrated core of ripe fruit, racy acids and a long, mineral finish. Pierre Larmandier invariably excels in cool, late growing seasons, so the 2013 vintage was perfectly adapted to his talents.

Peter Michael Au Paradis 2019 Napa Valley

James Suckling am 10.12.2021

Aromas of spice, ink, blackberries and currants. Very aromatic! Full-bodied, yet so tight and fresh with firm, velvety tannins. The beautiful center-palate of fruit is so enticing and the finish goes on for minutes. Coolness at the end with blue fruit. Stunning really. Give it time, if you can keep your hands off it. 76% cabernet sauvignon, 16% cabernet franc, and 8% merlot. Best after 2025.

Lisa Perrotti Brown 31.05.2022

In 2009, Peter Michael purchased the former Showket Vineyard in Oakville, on the hillside below Continuum and above Dalla Valle. That is the source for the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Au Paradis, a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Cabernet Franc and 8% Merlot. Matured in 60% new French oak, it's a fairly forward, opulent wine, marked by scents of cigar box, tobacco, cassis, cherries and fine leather. Full-bodied, rich and velvety without being chocolaty or overdone, the lingering finish is—texturally—plush winter-weight flannel pajamas interwoven with complex, faintly herbal threads.

97 Punkte von Jeb Dunnuck für den Peter Michael Au Paradis 2019 Napa Valley

Jeb Dunnuck am 08.02.2022

Hailing from Oakville, the 2019 Au Paradis is nuanced, with ripe redcurrant, fresh tobacco, and sweet baking spice. The palate is fully dry and has lift through its dark fruited profile. The midpalate is flush with roses and ripe red plum, giving way to a well-balanced, tannic structure. Drink 2024-2044.

Pym Rae 2016 Napa Valley Tesseron Vineyards

Lisa Perrotti Brown selbst beschreibt den Pym Rae 2016 im Oktober 2018 wie folgt:

This is the debut vintage of this wine from the esteemed Bordeaux owner, Alfred Tesseron, who bought the property in the Napa mountains in 2016. Aromas of plums, wet earth, fresh herbs and tobacco. Some green olives. Turns to blueberries and blackberries. Full-bodied, yet reserved and layered with chocolate, walnuts and plums. Firm yet polished tannins give a framed sense to the wine. Savory. Racy and beautifully structured, it’s extremely drinkable already. Real wine.

This is the first vintage off this estate following the purchase of the old Robin Williams vineyard and house by Chateau Pontet-Canet proprietor Alfred Tesseron back in 2016. The estate includes just under 20 acres of mature Cabernet Sauvignon (75%), Merlot (18%) and Cabernet Franc (7%) vines, planted in 1990. Now officially dubbed “Pym-Rae,” in respect for the original name given to the vineyard by Robin Williams (Pym and Rae are the middle names of two of Williams’s children), the site is perched at an average altitude of 1,500 feet (500 meters) on Mount Veeder. This first vintage off this vineyard is nothing like other wines I have tasted from Mount Veeder. And this makes sense, because to visit the property is to grasp how remote this side of the mountain is, and although this and other vineyards around it have long been in production, until now the fruit has been sold to large wineries and blended away in Napa Valley AVA wines.

Currently, the wines are made at a winery facility up on Howell Mountain, one that I have visited and at which I witnessed the 2016 vintage in production. Tesseron’s number-one demand of a temporary facility to produce his first Napa wine was simple: absolute control. Here he has it, at least until his winery on Mount Veeder has been completed (currently in the planning stages). Thomas Comme, the son of Jean-Michel Comme, the winemaker at Chateau Pontet-Canet, is winemaker and has lived at the estate since 2016. This first 2016 vintage is truly exciting—a sympathetically crafted, evocative expression of this place that is a must-try for readers who are as passionate as I am in discovering another unique expression of this incredibly multifaceted region for the highest quality Bordeaux blends.

Dominus Napa Valley 2014 Dominus Estate Yountville

Dominus 2014 Dominus Estate Napa Valley

James Suckling beschreibt den Dominus Napa Valley 2014 am 27. Januar 2017:

Fabulous purity and clarity of fruit. Black currants, blackberries and violets. Full body, big soft tannins and a chocolate, hazelnut and dark fruit character. Some hot stones too. Ripe, velvety and fruity finish. Better in 2020 but delicious to drink now. Wonderful Dominus.

Robert M. Parker Jr. beschreibt den Dominus Napa Valley 2014 im Oktober 2016:

The 2014s. where the production of Napanook was only 2.200 cases and Dominus slightly more than the 2015 at 4.000 cases. was another early harvest. although somewhat later than 2015. The 2014 Dominus. which is 86% Cabernet Sauvignon. 7% Cabernet Franc and 7% Petit Verdot really struts its stuff. Moueix’s belief in dry farming seems to be paying off with stronger and stronger vintages, each successive year, and the 2014 is a sexy, opulent, layered, multidimensional wine with notes of red and blackcurrant, cedar wood, tobacco leaf, spice box and licorice. The color is a dense plum/ruby/purple, much like the Napanook. This is a beauty that is already drinking gorgeously – as most 2014s are – and will continue to evolve for 25 or so years.

96+ Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Dominus 2014 Dominus Estate Napa Valley

The 2014 Dominus is endowed with tons of depth, power and muscle. Black cherry, plum, smoke, menthol, licorice, chocolate, dried herbs and dark spices are all pushed forward. Deep, pliant and exquisitely layered, the 2014 possesses tons of concentration and mid-palate depth. Like so many wines in this vintage, the 2014 comes across as a hybrid of 2013 and 2012. I very much like the energy and focus in this wine. This is a fabulous wine in every way. With time in the glass, the flavors gain in brightness and focus. There is certainly much to look forward to.

Kumeu River 2022 Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay

Kumeu River 2022 Maté´s Vineyard Chardonnay

Im Jahr 1990 überarbeitete Maté Brajkovich das Land und pflanzte einen neuen Weinberg mit Chardonnay-Reben an der Stelle des ursprünglichen Weinbergs, den er und seine Familie im März 1944 erworben hatten. Die ersten Trauben aus diesem Weinberg wurden im März 1993 geerntet, dem Jahr nach dem Tod von Maté. Der daraus resultierende Wein wurde im November 1994 anlässlich der Feierlichkeiten zum fünfzigsten Jahrestag der Ankunft der Familie Brajkovich am Kumeu River veröffentlicht.

Top-Bewertung von James Suckling (8. November 2023):

Gorgeous precise aromas of apples, white peaches, some minerals, flint and stone. Subtle mangoes, too. Full-bodied but so intense and driven with a salty undertone and a driving finish. Some white pepper at the end with citrus skin. Focused and intense. Great finish. Better after 2026 but already fantastic. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

96 Punkte vom Wine Advocate für den

Erin Larkin schreibt für Robert Parker im September 2023:

The nose on this 2022 Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay leads with candied bananas, pineapple husk, white peach and a hint of lychee, and the edges of the aromatics are feathered with preserved citrus, brine, curry leaf and apple skins. In the mouth, the wine is powered by supercharged fruit; it is crystalline in its way, an attribute that I have long-since associated with the Chardonnays from Kumeu River. The flavor is sapid and palate-staining, with just enough salt and savory spices in the fruit to make it super complex as well as powerful. It is precisely folded like origami, each crease in service of the overall shape.* A wine that offers much and assumes nothing. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
