Rolet Poulsard 1983

A great, timeless bottle of red.

Apple and salt

Tasting the new 2011 vintage of Vernaccia di San Gimignano, I feel refreshed, interested, and happy.

Rhône tightrope

Two wines from the Rhone, both powerful and very ripe… yet balanced and utterly convincing.

Best natural picks

My best picks out of 150 natural wines tasted in Zurich.

Clos Bagatelle 2010

What France does well: a supremely drinkable, terroir-driven wine for just 8€.

Tricky timing

Two bottles of good Bordeaux changed beyond recognition overnight.

Jaboulet upswing

After a period of poor performance the Rhône house of Jaboulet is going from strength to strength.

Réméjeanne Arbousiers 2004

Can’t get enough Côtes du Rhône at the moment. It’s become my favourite red wine. Today, a succulent example from overperforming Domaine La Réméjeanne.
