Yalumba - Wine Spectator	Yalumba The Menzies Cabernet Sauvignon	2014	91	Apr-2020
Review “An elegant red, with currant and strawberry flavors showing restraint, accented by loam and toasted herb notes. Shows off sage, rosemary and mineral details. A spicy tobacco hint lingers. The tannins are firm but never get in the way of expression.”
Ktima Pavlidis - Wine Enthusiast	THEMA Red	2014	88	Apr-2020
Review “This wine has a young and chewy character that will mellow with age. It offers expressive aromas of blackberry, leather and spice, with layers of black fruit, herbs and olive on the palate. There’s a good minerality throughout and subtle but exotic flavors of spice on the finish.”
Falesco - Wine Enthusiast	RC2 Sagrantino di Montefalco DOCG	2014	92	Apr-2020
Review “Inviting aromas of blueberry, graphite and leather emerge from the glass. The concentrated, elegant palate delivers dried black cherry, tobacco and black pepper alongside fine-grained tannins.”
Prager - Wine Advocate	Grüner Veltliner Wachstum Bodenstein Smaragd	2014	88	Mar-2020
Review “The 2014 Grüner Veltliner Smaragd Wachstum Bodenstein is coolish and rather leafy and earthy on the nose that doesn't show any generosity or richness but gets more and more flinty. On the palate, this is an elegant and grippy, slightly phenolic and bitter Veltliner with ripe and intense fruit but unripe or drying phenols. The finish is rather lean. This wine will hold for ages but will only please freaks of leaner and greener wines. Tasted in Weissenkirchen/Wachau in September 2019.”
Cousiño-Macul - Vinous	Finis Terrae	2014	92	Mar-2020
Review “A blend of 45% Cabernet, 44% Merlot and 11% Syrah from Maipo. Ruby-colored with a very intense brick dust meniscus. The nose offers cassis, blackberry jam and menthol, with clear woody notes in the background, as well as sweet spices. Terse with polished tannins, a voluminous feel and long flavorsome finish, it has an oxidative character but is impeccably executed.”
Damilano - TEXSOM International Wine Awards	Barolo DOCG Cannubi	2014	Bronze	Mar-2020
Review
Damilano - Red Wine with Breakfast	Lecinquevigne Barolo DOCG	2014		Mar-2020
Review “The king of Italian wines, Barolo reigns as the ah-ha wine for me. Produced from the Nebbiolo variety in the Northwestern Italian hills of Piemonte, Damilano Barolo Lecinquevigne 2014 reveals savory notes of tobacco, leather, and tar, with black cherry, and beautiful truffle-filled earthiness. The ideal wine to enjoy with Italian ragu dishes and mushroom risotto.”
Damilano - Trying New Wines with Hayley Hamilton Cogill	Lecinquevigne Barolo DOCG	2014		Mar-2020
Review Her “ah-ha” wine, and describing it as “savory with earthiness and black cherry notes.” She comments that the wines featured “have so much structure and character because of the soils they are grown in” and “makes them very good food wines that might not be on your radar but should be.”
Secondo Marco - Forbes	Valpolicella Classico Ripasso DOC	2014		Mar-2020
Review “The Marco Speri family is a fifth-generation winemaking family in northern Italy and this label (Secondo Marco) is one of their newest ventures. Made to sing with food, it is elegant and polished with a bit less alcohol and residual sugar. Savory cherry and floral notes make it a good choice for a range of dishes, especially roasted meats and pasta.”
Barone Pizzini - Forbes	Barone Pizzini Satèn Franciacorta	2014		Mar-2020
Review “Sparkling wine that gives Champagne a run for its money – made from Chardonnay harvested from six unique sites, the final wine shows rich mousse texture with toasty notes and zesty tart apple flavors. Barone Pizzini is one of the Franciacorta region’s oldest wineries with a long history of using sustainable farming methods.”
