Wine Advocate-Parker :A strong effort from proprietor Philippe Castéja, the 2012 Trottevieille has an inky, opaque purple color with plenty of blueberry and blackcurrant fruit, licorice, earth and subtle background oak. It is medium to full-bodied, with excellent texture, long persistence on the palate and impressive purity. All are impressive and evidence of a very top effort from this property that always seems to be capable of producing even greater wine than it actually does. No one is going to be disappointed in the 2012. It has an anticipated maturity of 2020-2035.

Tasting Notes A juicy palate of fleshy, white fruit (such as Asian pear) only underscores the striking aromas on this elegant Bordeaux Blanc. Generous tropical notes of kiwi and lychee mingle with honeyed floral tones. A fine, fuller texture aligns with precise acidity, providing a singular experience meant to be enjoyed over a grilled fish and Meyer lemons. From a vineyard of deep gravelly soils located in Sauternes called "Clos des Lunes," this gift-worthy white is a grand effort from famed Domaine de Chevalier in Pessac-Léognan. It was matured 25% in barrel and 75% in temperature-controlled vats with regular stirring of the lees. Winemaker Notes Lune d’Argent is the heart of Clos des Lunes’ production. We firmly believe in the future of this legendary terroir and its truly original style. With a touch of French oak, the Sémillon is dense and rich, the Sauvignon Blanc refined and precise. This cuvée of dry white wine promises to convey all the magic of Sauternes.

Domaine Jean Grivot is among the great names in Burgundian wine. Étienne Grivot and his wife Marielle took over from Étienne’s father Jean Grivot in 1987, and were joined by their daughter Mathilde in 2017. Organic farming, dense vine planting, and hard work in the vineyard give a ripe concentrated style. Grivot produces the classic expression of Vosne-Romanée, aromas and flavors of red berries, herbs, and purple flowers with a rich, ripe fruit palate. This is the iron fist in the floral velvet glove.

Winemaker Notes A beautiful pale pink hue with amber glints reminiscent of the color of apricots, enhanced by discreet, pearly bubbles and incomparable finesse. Intensely perfumed, the complex nose immediately announces a powerful, structured, great rosé wine. The Pinots Noirs, vinified as still red (8% of the blend) give the wine a particular aroma: that which comes from a simmering pot of bubbling strawberry jam, candied fruit mingled with mild spices such as cinnamon, cardamom, honey and pink praline. A true journey through flavor, the palate revels in the creamy sensation of juicy plums. This wine is characterized by a silky texture reminiscent of fig pie, pine nuts, and sweet pastries. Spicier notes of liquorish and cumin that come into play. The finish is warm and round, marked by notes of blackberry tea, cherries, pink peppercorns and fresh figs.
