2021 Laurenz V. Charming Grüner Veltliner

Anne Krebiehl, Vinous, June 2024

“The 2021 Grüner Veltliner Charming Reserve, from grapes grown across Kamptal and vinified in stainless steel, has the slightest note of blossom honey on its shy nose. The palate is concentrated and has let go of its youthful fruit. It provides a sleek sense of concentration and linearity. The 2021 is elegant, poised, fresh and beautifully pervasive, with a lasting finish. (Bone-dry)”

2021 Laurenz V. Charming Grüner Veltliner

July 2024

“Austria's Kapmtal region in is dedicated to two varieties, Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. This winery only focuses on Grüner — showcasing different climatic, geographical, and winemaking styles. This bottle is a blend of several distinct vineyard sites and welcomes you with bright pear and white pepper notes. It's grippy on the palate with some great acidity and depth from some time aging on the lees.”

2021 M. Chapoutier Les Meysonniers Rouge

Joe Czerwinski, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, May 2024

“As usual, this bottling shows more substance than the la Petite Ruche. The 2021 Crozes Hermitage les Meysonniers delivers peppery spice and ripe cherries and blueberries in a medium-bodied format. Silky, pure and elegant, it finishes long, with a slightly tart edge.”

2022 M. Chapoutier La Bernardine Blanc

Joe Czerwinski, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, May 2024

“The 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape la Bernardine Blanc—tasted as a tank sample in the summer of 2023—boasts attractive aromas of clover honey, fresh limes, white peaches and crushed stone. Only medium to full-bodied, I'd prefer to see a bit more richness in this wine, but it's clean, crisp and nicely balanced. This vintage is about 80% Clairette from Croix de Bois and 20% Grenache Blanc from the other (western) side of the appellation, all fermented and matured in demi-muids, 15% new.”

2022 M. Chapoutier La Bernardine Blanc

Stuart Pigott, James Suckling, April 2024

““Full, expressive nose of candied citrus, dried pear and vanilla that pulls you into this very structured, full-bodied white Chateauneuf, which has energetic acidity for this hot and dry vintage. The positive, fine tannins really help to drive this cuvee with clairette from the extreme east of the appellation and grenache blanc from the extreme west. This was vinified in a mix of demi-muid and foudre oak casks. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.””

2021 Laurenz V. Charming Grüner Veltliner

Kristen Bieler, Wine Spectator, February 2024

“A medium-bodied white marked by white cherry, lemon oil and chamomile flavors. Boasts bittersweet lemon-lime acidity, which offsets the richness of custard and white mocha elements through the well-hewn finish. Drink now. 400 cases imported.”

2021 M. Chapoutier Les Granilites Rouge

Jeb Dunnuck, Jeb Dunnuck, December 2022

“The 2021 Saint Joseph Les Granits, which hit a healthy 13.6% natural alcohol, sports a deep ruby/purple hue as well as classic, old school Saint Joseph notes of darker fruits, smoked herbs, earth, and crushed stone. It's medium-bodied, with ripe, polished tannins and nicely integrated acidity.”
