| 47364 | 47363 | US | Jarvis has assembled a great record with this bottling over the years. The 2012 fulfills all the basic California requirements for impressive Chardonnay, with ripe, flamboyant tropical fruit, pear and pineapple flavors, along with lots of sweet, buttery, vanilla-accented oak. This is one of the most decadent Chardonnays of the vintage, and while it's a little soft, it is flashy. | Finch Hollow Estate Grown | 93 | 115 | California | Napa Valley | Napa | | | Jarvis 2012 Finch Hollow Estate Grown Chardonnay (Napa Valley) | Chardonnay | Jarvis |
| 47365 | 47364 | Austria | Aromas of flint and meadow flowers mingle in this mineral but juicy and joyous wine. Grapefruit zest underlines the lively acidity. If you are after concentrated, zippy linearity, this is it. | Käferberg Reserve | 93 | | Kamptal | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Jurtschitsch 2012 Käferberg Reserve Grüner Veltliner (Kamptal) | Grüner Veltliner | Jurtschitsch |
| 47366 | 47365 | US | The tannins are mountain tough, the acidity is just fine, and the flavors, well, how can you describe their power? Massive in blackberry essence and cassis liqueur, it has a tangy, minerally lick of granite that must come from the soil. Start enjoying it in 2018. | Reserve | 93 | 98 | California | Spring Mountain District | Napa | | | Keenan 2010 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Spring Mountain District) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Keenan |
| 47367 | 47366 | US | Alpha is a new offering from Market Vineyards, and boosts the flavor meter past the winery's excellent, value-priced Benchmark Merlot. Tightly-structured and showing a barrel-heavy mix of dark, toasted flavors, this complex effort brings lead pencil, clove, charred meat and black fruits into play. Enjoy it with your thick grilled steak, or tuck it away until 2020–2022. | Alpha | 93 | 52 | Washington | Red Mountain | Columbia Valley | Paul Gregutt | @paulgwine | Market Vineyards 2010 Alpha Merlot (Red Mountain) | Merlot | Market Vineyards |
| 47368 | 47367 | Austria | Crushed camomile leaves and fresh apricots beckon with ethereal lift. The palate oscillates between austerity and thrill with its uncompromising acidity. This is ready and open now but will continue to age. | Senftenberger Hochäcker Reserve | 93 | | Kremstal | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Nigl 2012 Senftenberger Hochäcker Reserve Riesling (Kremstal) | Riesling | Nigl |
| 47369 | 47368 | US | A bright, fresh Syrah delicious in restrained blackberry and blueberry fruit, it has a luscious mouthfeel, plenty of acidity and an undercurrent of wild herb. Stark managed to do good things with many varieties in 2011. This wine is a standout, ready to pair with something gamey dribbled in black pepper sauce. | Eaglepoint Ranch | 93 | 38 | California | Mendocino County | | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Stark 2011 Eaglepoint Ranch Syrah (Mendocino County) | Syrah | Stark |
| 47341 | 47340 | Italy | This fresh, enjoyable white has passion fruit, citrus and saline aromas and flavors. It's simple, with a clean, fresh finish. | Fiordiligi | 85 | 15 | Sicily & Sardinia | Terre Siciliane | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | Assuli 2015 Fiordiligi Grillo (Terre Siciliane) | Grillo | Assuli |
| 47370 | 47369 | France | A hugely concentrated wine, it has a dark feel to it, mineral and structured. It shows spice, suggestions of the wood aging and always the ripest fruit. Drink from 2018. | | 93 | 58 | Bordeaux | Saint-Émilion | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Château la Gaffelière 2011 Saint-Émilion | Bordeaux-style Red Blend | Château la Gaffelière |
| 47342 | 47341 | US | This medium-bodied wine opens with a squeeze of acidity and follows through with simple and straightforward citrus flavors. | Berry Lane Vineyard | 85 | 38 | California | Napa Valley | Napa | Virginie Boone | @vboone | AuburnJames 2014 Berry Lane Vineyard Chardonnay (Napa Valley) | Chardonnay | AuburnJames |
| 47343 | 47342 | US | This wine is a very pale peach color. Aromas of strawberry candy, watermelon and citrus peel lead to light dry-fruit flavors. The concentration seems a bit lacking. | Grenache | 85 | 17 | Washington | Columbia Valley (WA) | Columbia Valley | Sean P. Sullivan | @wawinereport | Browne Family Vineyards 2016 Grenache Rosé (Columbia Valley (WA)) | Rosé | Browne Family Vineyards |
| 47344 | 47343 | Spain | Oaky resiny spicy aromas are an indicator of what's to come. This has a scratchy mouthfeel and resiny notes akin to licking a plank of wood. A heavily oaked flavor profile tastes mostly of dry wood and clove. On the finish, wood-spice flavors and drying tannins are in control and don't let go. | | 85 | 15 | Northern Spain | Somontano | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Batán de Salas 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon (Somontano) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Batán de Salas |
| 47345 | 47344 | Argentina | Aromas of baked berry fruits, rubber band and forced oak struggle to be taken seriously. A grabby drawing palate offers stewed berry flavors in front of a finish that's pushed by rubbery tannins. | 505 | 85 | 12 | Mendoza Province | Mendoza | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Casarena 2014 505 Malbec (Mendoza) | Malbec | Casarena |
| 47346 | 47345 | Spain | This is raisiny and jammy on the nose. That's followed by a scratchy palate with rough tannins. Roasted grapy flavors are just pleasant enough, while a gravelly finish is ruled by residual hard tannins. | Roble | 85 | 12 | Northern Spain | Ribera del Duero | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Cantaburros 2015 Roble (Ribera del Duero) | Tempranillo | Cantaburros |
| 47347 | 47346 | France | Pale orange-salmon colored, this wine has a really soft character. Its flavor is as light as its color: acidity and raspberry fruit in soft focus.

| 47348 | 47347 | US | Smooth and easy-drinking, this medium-bodied wine has the attributes many people enjoy: vanilla and coconut aromas, lightly sweet apple flavors that coat the palate, and a pear syrup quality that lingers on the finish. | | 85 | 10 | California | California | California Other | Jim Gordon | @gordone_cellars | Dark Horse 2015 Chardonnay (California) | Chardonnay | Dark Horse |

| 47352 | 47351 | Spain | Light dusty aromas are mildly sweaty and green. This Verdejo-Viura blend is crisp and stony, without much body weight. Dry lime and citrus pith flavors are briny, while nopal and grapefruit flavors come into play on a bracing finish. | Basa Blanco | 85 | 16 | Northern Spain | Rueda | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Telmo Rodríguez 2016 Basa Blanco Verdejo-Viura (Rueda) | Verdejo-Viura | Telmo Rodríguez |
| 47353 | 47352 | Italy | This lean, simple white offers yellow flower, citrus zest and grilled herb flavors. It's bright, with a clean finish. | | 85 | 24 | Northeastern Italy | Collio | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | Tenuta Stella 2015 Ribolla Gialla (Collio) | Ribolla Gialla | Tenuta Stella |
| 47354 | 47353 | France | The label and the name of this wine just exude summer sun. It is tight, packed with acidity as well as bright red fruits. A citrus streak shoots through this light fruity wine. Drink now. | Note Bleue | 85 | 14 | Provence | Côtes de Provence | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Les Maîtres Vignerons de la Presqu'île de Saint-Tropez 2016 Note Bleue Rosé (Côtes de Provence) | Rosé | Les Maîtres Vignerons de la Presqu'île de Saint-Tropez |
| 47355 | 47354 | Austria | Pear, arugula, white pepper and apricots take turns in dazzling nose and palate. A serious, concentrated and mineral vein of power also courses through this sleek wine, which holds even more future promise. | Gaisberg Reserve | 94 | | Kamptal | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Allram 2012 Gaisberg Reserve Grüner Veltliner (Kamptal) | Grüner Veltliner | Allram |
| 47356 | 47355 | US | A tiny-production Pinot by a new producer, it makes a stunning debut. Owners James Hahn and Mila Chanamé are childhood friends with longtime Anderson Valley vineyard manager Norman Kobler and the shared roots have clearly put them in sync. The wine is perfumey in lilac and violet with a lightly textured and seductive mouthfeel that's exotic in just-ripe cherry and raspberry. | | 94 | 45 | California | Anderson Valley | | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Chanamé 2011 Pinot Noir (Anderson Valley) | Pinot Noir | Chanamé |
| 47357 | 47356 | France | Continuing its impressive development, Clerc Milon 2011 is a serious wine. It is elegant, stylish, its fruits well integrated with red berry and plum skin flavors. Powerful while round and fruity with a fine sense of weight, this wine will develop relatively quickly but will then stay at its peak for many years. Drink from 2017. | | 94 | 62 | Bordeaux | Pauillac | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Château Clerc Milon 2011 Pauillac | Bordeaux-style Red Blend | Château Clerc Milon |
| 47358 | 47357 | Italy | One of Italy's truly great 100% Merlots, this wine opens with aromas of plum, black currants and exotic spices. The opulent, smooth palate delivers blackberry, white pepper and a note of creamy milk chocolate alongside firm, velvety tannins. Soft and round, it's delicious now, but it will also develop for a decade or more. Drink 2016–2026. | Redigaffi | 94 | 350 | Tuscany | Toscana | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | Tua Rita 2011 Redigaffi Merlot (Toscana) | Merlot | Tua Rita |
| 47359 | 47358 | Austria | Initially subdued, the fresh-fruited ripeness of yellow Mirabelle plums and almost an aloe-vera-like scent lead the way, on the palate there is a streamlined but nonetheless nutty,almost smoky, rounded richness with a pleasing lick of freshness. Hazelnuts, wet pebbles and yeasty lees provide an additional dimension to this concentrated, sophisticated wine. This has mileage and will develop over the coming five years. | Bisamberg Alte Reben | 93 | 22 | Wiener Gemischter Satz | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Wieninger 2012 Bisamberg Alte Reben White (Wiener Gemischter Satz) | Austrian white blend | Wieninger |
| 47360 | 47359 | Italy | Made by Angelo Gaja at his estate in coastal Tuscany, this blend of 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc leads with aromas of plum, spice and warm toasted notes. The structured, elegant palate delivers restrained black currant and black cherry accented with notes of black pepper and coffee alongside polished tannins. It's still young and a bit nervous, so give it time to develop its potential. Drink 2015–2030. | Camarcanda | 93 | 170 | Tuscany | Bolgheri | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | Ca' Marcanda 2010 Camarcanda (Bolgheri) | Red Blend | Ca' Marcanda |
| 47361 | 47360 | US | Coombsville has emerged as the hottest appellation in Napa Valley, and Cameron Hughes is right there, doing his negociant thing. The Cabernet was blended with Malbec and Merlot, and the wine is fantastically satisfying. Its rich, sturdy tannins frame elaborate blackberry, blueberry, red currant and smoky oak flavors that are wonderfully complex, with an elegant, balanced finish. This is an unbelievable price for a Cabernet of this high quality. | Lot 451 | 93 | 27 | California | Coombsville | Napa | | | Cameron Hughes 2011 Lot 451 Cabernet Sauvignon (Coombsville) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Cameron Hughes |
| 47362 | 47361 | Austria | A touch of flintstone, a hint of soy-sauce savoriness and the ripe but fresh scent of green pears all bode well for a grippy, concentrated wine. It features a zesty, refreshing core and a lovely notion of wet pebbles. The body is slender and tight. | Oberfeld Alte Reben Reserve | 93 | | Kremstal | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Unger 2012 Oberfeld Alte Reben Reserve Grüner Veltliner (Kremstal) | Grüner Veltliner | Unger |
