Spanish Red Diamond Discovery Amidst a 7,000-Producer Sea We keep no official statistics on which winemaker has attained “favorite” status the fastest, but if we did, Christophe Chapillon—the Frenchman who has wooed Wine Access members with stunning Spanish reds like the 92-point Chapillon Cuvée Paul—would be a frontrunner. Chapillon fans haven’t seen one of his…
If the name Charles Heintz is on the bottle, we’re always interested. The famed Sonoma Coast winegrower provides the grapes that go into some of our favorite $80-$100+ bottles of DuMol, Williams Selyem, Ceritas, and Littorai, all of whom proudly feature their world-renowned source on the label. Robert Parker has called the wines from this…
The rich and exuberant 2016 Château Bernateau Saint-Émilion Grand Cru comes from exceptional terroir. But what really sets it apart is the meticulous farming and quality-obsessed winemaking involved in making it—much of the same attention and care that goes into $300 bottles from the Right Bank. Add this wine’s powerful structure and sophistication, plus a…
The 92-point 2016 Château Bourdieu No. 1 is the wine you want stacked high in your cellar when the air turns a little chilly, and well into springtime steak season. It’s lush and generous, with a red- and black-fruited nose accented with violets, lilacs, tobacco, and pencil shavings. The mouthfeel is bold, with plenty of…
We can’t remember the last time we came across an under-$20 Bordeaux with this much pedigree. Where to begin? The 2016 Château Chapelle d’Aliénor Bordeaux Supérieur is produced by the Malet Roqueforts, a noble family that has been producing wine in the region since 1705. And while their Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé Château La…
Cheval Blanc is a bucket-list wine in any vintage. But in a legendary year like 2016—a growing season in contention to be the best of our lifetimes—it’s about as good as wine gets. Boasting two 100-point scores—including from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, who praised its “jaw-dropping elegance and depth”—it’s a Cheval Blanc that achieves immortality…
The Overdelivering Fifth Growth of Pauillac Fifth Growth Château Clerc Milon is “brilliantly placed” between First Growth châteaux Lafite Rothschild and Mouton Rothschild, and produces “one of the most fruity and savory Pauillacs,” according to Robert Parker. Clerc Milon’s reputation is one of stellar value. Designated as Fifth Growth in the 1855 classification, Clerc Milon…
In the phenomenal 2016 vintage, First Growth Château Margaux and “Super Third” Château Palmer both earned 98 points from Decanter—and Château d’Issan earned a stunning 97 points from the same publication. This is one of the greatest years ever for d’Issan—Decanter singled it out as their favorite in a 19-vintage vertical tasting. It sums up…
A Beaucastel Flirting With Perfection In which world-famous wine regions can you find a 99-point wine from both an iconic estate and a historic vintage—for $80? Bordeaux? Get real. Burgundy? Not happening. Incredibly, it is still possible in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and that is what we have in the 2016 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge: a wine…
Bold and powerful, with a dark, assertive Bordeaux character, the 2016 Château de l’Aubrade has structure, muscle, and a ten-year cellaring potential that is astounding at this price point. Showcasing the nobility of this region even as it brandishes its power, the bottling won a 91-point endorsement from Wine Enthusiast, calling it “big, smoky, and…
Guigal’s 70-year Search is Over Nothing says world-class wine, or sends collectors into a frenzy, like the name Guigal: Their Northern Rhône bottlings are the stuff of legend, and Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate calls them “the modern world’s greatest testament to a family-run winery.” Our visit to the Guigal cellars earlier this year felt like…
One glass was all it took to convince us that the 2016 Château de Parenchère is a superb Bordeaux performing way above its price grade, and a value we’d be crazy to walk away from. Vibrant crimson-ruby in hue, it filled our glasses with a ripe bouquet of black plum, blackberry, and damp earth, suffused…
This spectacular Châteauneuf stands with Vieux Télégraphe and the $183 Château La Nerthe Cuvée des Cadettes in Rhône expert Jeb Dunnuck’s rankings—he thinks you should “count yourself lucky” to get your hands on a bottle. We say you’re even luckier if you grab it today at the best price in the country: just $75, 37%…
The first stirring, garrigue-seasoned sip of the 2016 Château Mourre du Tendre Châteauneuf-du-Pape Très Vieilles Vignes Cuvée Prestige left us breathless—then baffled. How, in the four years since the historic 2016 vintage, had we missed this magnificent bottle? Turns out there’s a simple explanation. For the past three years, while red wine lovers have been…
London’s Noble Rot, red wine list winner at the 2019 World Restaurant Awards, has an enviable cellar, as deep as it is selective. When we stepped into the restaurant last summer for a St.-Émilion dinner, we knew there would be fireworks. What we didn’t know was that the jewel of the evening wouldn’t be from…
Eyes closed, a deep, dark-fruited whiff and a spice-tinged sip of today’s gorgeous Châteauneuf-du-Pape will make you think you’re drinking one of the legends that lives in the Rhône’s 95-point zone. Open your eyes, and you’re head over heels for an upstart that claimed an icon-like score—and kept its insurgent price. That’s because the fast-rising…
There is a well-known phenomenon among wine-loving travelers. You vacation somewhere, say the South of France, and fall in love with a wine—a succulent, juicy red, consumed day after day on stony, sun-soaked beaches. You bring a case home, and suddenly find it completely dull, a pale imitation. But some bottles are capable of transporting…
The experience of a great Right Bank Bordeaux can come for way less than the $50 you might expect—if you know where to look. Château Haut La Grenière’s Lussac-Saint-Émilion shows why Robert Parker once wrote: “As with the other satellite appellations in Saint-Émilion, Lussac is a veritable treasure trove for bargains.” With the same varietal…
Château Haut-Bergeron’s 2016 Sauternes was one of the highlights of last year’s trip to Bordeaux. We were turned on to this 96-point gem by our friend John Salvi, a Bordeaux-based Master of Wine, and we were so impressed that we quickly secured as much as we could at a price that’s substantially lower than peers…
One sip of the 2016 Château L’Évangile Pomerol, and we knew it was an instant classic that would stand alongside the château’s legendary 1982, 1989, 2005, and 2009 vintages. A quick glance at James Suckling’s assessment shows that, for collectors looking for a perfection-pushing Right Bank benchmark, there’s no savvier choice for the cellar than…
