A pleasant, easy white with floral and light pineapple character. Medium-bodied with fruity, then savory flavors. Drink now.

Ripe lemony aromas with green apple and a touch of herbal on the palate. Really well done.

Dry, green fruits and asparagus, quite clean and crisp.

Crushed stone and sea shells give way to nectarine, mint and a hint of vanilla bean to create a wildly attractive and Burgundian bouquet. On the palate, this speaks more in whispers, soft and subtle.

It’s silky and seductive on the palate, showing a pretty inner sweetness, with ripe pear giving way to notes of almond as inner florals amass toward the close. Simply stunning.

It’s angular and tactile in feel, showcasing mineral-tinged orchard fruits. A note of ginger and bitter citrus peel creates tension toward the close.

There’s so much youthful density here, even as the wine remains energetic throughout, tapering off with a nutty richness offset by residual acids and savory spice.

This is silky in texture, with an unbelievably pure and vivid display of red fruits laced with salty minerals, as brisk acids create a sweet-and-sour tug of tension toward the close.

It’s velvety in texture yet lifted and feminine in feel, showcasing mineral-tinged black fruits and exotic spices. Yet while there is already pleasure to be found today, the best is still to come.

It’s silky in texture, motivated by juicy acidity, with ripe wild berry fruits complemented by sweet inner violet notes.

Een zomers feestje voor je papillen. Bij vers fruit, ijs en niet al te zoete taarten met rode zomervruchten. Zomaar een glas in de zon mag ook.

Flinke zuren, goed ingepakt door het fruit (meloen, ananas, perzik). Iets hartig in de geur, stenig in de afdronk.

The fruit strikes a fantastic balance with the long, rustic tannins. A perfect example that shows that Montepulciano is much more than an easy-going wine for immediate consumption.

Light, vivid orange. Ripe strawberry, cherry and tangerine qualities on the nose, along with spice and floral accents.

Deep and chewy on the palate, offering cassis, bitter cherry, floral pastille and fruitcake flavors supported by a core of juicy acidity.

An expansive bouquet evokes ripe red fruits, pungent flowers, allspice and licorice, and a mineral topnote lends urgency. Palate-coating raspberry, bitter cherry and candied lavender flavors.

Palate-staining, appealingly sweet black raspberry, mulberry, cherry cola and floral pastille flavors show fine definition and a bracing core of smoky minerality.

This is a pleasurable and easy-drinking wine that shows a mid-weight approach with plenty of bitter almond, tar and pressed violets that appear as background shadings.

This vintage shows creamy richness, fruit freshness and excellent balance overall. The bouquet reveals orchard fruit, almond blossom, honey and beeswax.

Ripe fruit and wild berry, with background tones of grill herb, licorice and pressed blue flowers. There are hints of eucalyptus and white pepper that add extra lift and intensity to the bouquet.

Dry River's 2018 Pinot Noir boasts scents of earth, cola and plum. It's plush and atypically soft on the medium-bodied palate—no doubt the product of a warm vintage.

This medium to full-bodied wine is velvety and nearly opulent in feel, making it the best Palliser Estate Pinot I can recall tasting.

Ripe cherry, plums and damsons aromas framed by oak scents of coffee and cedar wood. Full body with a lively acidity and persistent spicy finish.

Tasty white with ripe-lime and light mineral character. Medium body and a good concentration of fruit. Saline finish. Drink now.

Quite a herbal expression here, together with some red-cherry and berry fruit and fine, lightly firm tannins. Medium-bodied, tight and focused. Nicely done. Drink now.

Great vitality, intensity and textural exuberance, feels alive. Harmonious and well balanced. Quietly assured, a very good reflection of its place.

A pleasant red-cherry and berry mix on the nose and palate. Medium bodied with a touch of tannin, fresh acidity and lots of juicy fruit. Drink now.

A really pretty, drinkable, wine with orange blossom and almond notes. Good, bright, floral notes and lively palate with long flavours.

It’s tempting to see a mountain purity in this dark wine, and the altitude can surely be read in the freshness of its blackcurrant fruits and their near-leafy charm.

This salmon-copper rose, with its cavalier autumn fruits and its sheer breadth and audacity of flavour, struck our judges as one of the most memorable.

Plenty of character, plenty of weight and so much elegance, lift and eloquence too; fruit singing here. Lovely balance and weight; pleasing in many different ways. Stunner!

Fresh aromatics with green apple pastille and white peach. Rich with tangy acids and concentrated flavours of lemon sherbet, herbs and a mineral, green melon finish.

Ripe black fruits with floral aromas and flavors. Fine grained tannins in the mouth with vanilla, clove and cinnamon spice and a persistent finish.

A stunning gruner in the context of the challenging 2020 vintage, with so much mirabelle, quince and yellow-apple fruit, but also a ton of herbal freshness.

There’s so much fresh lime and sliced pear here that this medium-bodied dry riesling is hard to resist. So cool, precise and super-straight with nice, herbal and mineral freshness at the finish.

This medium-bodied dry riesling already shows plenty of ripe apple and pear character. Full and harmonious palate, where the touch of tannin and lemony acidity are already integrated very well.

The aromas of dark fruit and hazelnuts are so enticing, with undertones of licorice and slate. Medium to full body with round tannins and a savory finish. It’s so pretty to taste now.

I always love the purity of aromas delivered in wine from this 1.8-hectare site with loose, well-draining soils in the celebrated Ginestra cru of Monforte d'Alba.

Appealingly sweet and seamless in texture, offering juicy dark berry, cherry cola and floral pastille flavors that pick up a minerally nuance with air.

Barstensvol kersen, framboos en een tikje laurier heeft deze bobal in de verte iets weg van een goede Beaujolais, maar dan met een geheel eigen karakter. Frisse zuren, elegantie en lengte.
