From the outstanding 2007 vintage and scoring 92/100 Parker Points, "As for the equally deep ruby/purple-colored 2007 Seguret Grande Reserve, this wine has much more licorice and more depth and body, but displays a similar aromatic and flavor profile. It is broad, expansive, and voluptuously textured, with stunning depth and richness. This is about as good as Seguret can be and actually competes with wines that are much more costly.

From the outstanding 2009 vintage and scoring 90/100 Parker points,"This is another over-achieving estate that tends to produce wines with lots of intensity and structure. This wine certainly has the formidable intensity one expects from Charmail, but the tannins are silky smooth and the result is the sexiest Charmail to date. An opulent, even voluptuously textured wine, full-bodied and dense purple in color, it is a seductive blend of 47% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered and came in with natural alcohols of 14%. The low acidity, plush fruit and silky tannins all suggest drinking this over the next decade. It is another sleeper of the vintage". Drink now - 2032.

From the good 2013 vintage and scoring 91/100 Parker points, "The 2013 Moulin-à-Vent Les Rouchaux spent 12 to 15 months in barrel. Compared to the 2013 La Roche, the fruit here is less broody and more open, some red cherries beginning to appear with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with a lightly spiced opening, chalky tannin, and a focused, intense finish that leaves boysenberry and citrus fruit on the aftertaste.

This stunning wine from the very good 2014 vintage and scoring 88/100 Parker points, "The 2014 Cantemerle has a conservative, cedar and graphite-tinged bouquet that needs to develop more fruité.

From the outstanding 2015 vintage and scoring 90/100 Points by Tom Cannavan, "From an interesting collaboration between the top Pessac-Léognan estate of Domaine de Chevalier and Stephane Derenencourt, this is mostly Merlot with 30% of Cabernet Franc, so presumably from 'right bank' vineyards given that blend. It's a deeply spiced and plummy wine, offering instantly appealing depth of aroma, touched with cedary olive character, but mostly about the plummy Merlot fruit. In the mouth the silky texture, soft creamy tannins and weight of mid-palate fruit flow across the tongue, before a bright finish where pert acidity and a bit of structure pull the wine through to a long finish."

Full-bodied yet possessing fantastic freshness and harmony on the palate, it has wonderfully vibrant fruit and a ripe, grainy frame, finishing with a compelling lift." Drink now - 2038.

From the outstanding 2017 vintage and scoring 92/100 Parker points, "With slightly more pronounced tannins than most vintages, the 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape should be set aside for a year or two and then consumed over the following decade.

From the outstanding 2017 vintage and scoring 89-91/100 Parker points, "Notions of ripe plums, berries, loamy soil and licorice introduce the 2017 Maranges 1er Cru La Fussière, a medium to full-bodied, velvety wine with rich structuring tannins, a succulent core of fruit and juicy balancing acids. Pure and long on the finish, this hails from soils richer in clay and correspondingly more gourmand than the Clos de la Boutière." Drink now - 2033.

From the outstanding 2020 vintage and scoring 92/100 Parker points "Chapoutier's 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape Pie VI is an 85-15 blend of Grenache and Syrah, drawn from the family's three historic holdings in the appellation. Bottled only a week before my summer visit, it was already offering up soaring aromas of raspberries and cherries, with hints of menthol and garrigue. It's full-bodied, mouthfilling yet light, airy and fresh on the palate, then shows silky tannins on the finish, with hints of dark chocolate." Drink now - 2033.
