The Altesino 2019 Brunello di Montalcino boasts a rich and savory side that this wine wears very well. There is a beautiful level of dark fruit that folds into the wine's velvety texture. Blackberry and plum envelop the palate, adding elegant full-bodied ...
Aromas of dark plums, racy wild blueberries, strawberries with dried herbs and cured meat. It’s medium-to full-bodied with fine tannins. Elegant and transparent, yet full of characters with mineral, raspberries and cherries on the palate. Vibrant finish a...
The 2023 Morgon Côte du Py comes from several parcels of granite and schistous soils with many centurion vines. This has a wonderful, very complex bouquet with exquisite delineation: crushed stone lters through dark berry fruit alongside hints of ash a...

"Amongst the recent vintages, I was blown away by a stellar showing of the 2015 Climens that had the audacity to outflank the 2016 and 2019."

The 2022 Le Mont Demi-Sec is less fruity and charming than, say, Clos du Bourg; its tension and line come from its flinty terroir. Despite its 21g/L residual sugar, it retains a sense of tautness without being totally linear. Radish and pear notes ling...
There are many shouty wines in the world, but the 2020 Le Mont Moelleux is understated, which is highly attractive. There's finesse and elegance to this sweeter style (49g/L). Delicate exotic characters such as dried papaya and pineapple sit alongside ...
The 2022 Le Mont Moelleux is a medium-sweet, tender style that is just so welcoming and appealing. It is the quiet type that doesn't show off. It offers breadth without weight, which I always like about the Huet wines - they're like clouds of Chenin fl...
