A Copernican revolution in a way, since this intangible hand regulates the markets through a clever mix of relationships between local brokers and local merchants and is no longer entirely devoted to the great classified growths of Bordeaux and similar.

The September Releases

Last year I wrote the first ever comprehensive tasting report of the international wines released on the Bordeaux marketplace each September. I felt it was essential, as it has become an increasingly exciting way to check the health of wines. increasingly exciting way to check the health of world-class wines from an astonishing range of regions and vintages.

For this second edition, now for janeanson.com, you can find even more iconic wines from Napa, Sonoma, Chile, Argentina, Italy, South Africa, Australia, and more. Noting newcomers to the Square has become like looking for IPOs, and there are a number of high-profile first-timers for the 2021s, including :

§ Clos des Goisses 2012 et 1996, Champagne
§ Penfolds Bin 169 2018, Australie
§ Beaux Frères 2019, Oregon
§ Santa Rita Casa Real Reserva Especial 2018, Chili
§ Giodo la Quinta 2019, Toscane
§ Yjar 2017, Rioja
§ Petrolo Boggina C Riserva 2019, Toscane
§ CastelGiocondo 2016, Toscane
§ Poggio Antico 2016, Brunello di Montalcino
§ Peter Michael Les Pavots 2018, Sonoma

Alongside the classics that have been using this release system for a number of years, such as :

§ Opus One 2018, Napa
§ Masseto 2018, Toscane
§ Inglenook Rubicon 2018, Napa
§ Beaucastel Hommage à Jacques Perrin 2019, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
§ Bibi Graetz Testamatta 2019, Toscane
§ Klein Constantia Vin de Constance 2018, Afrique du Sud Afrique du Sud
§ Almaviva 2019, Chili
§ Nicolas Catena Zapata 2018, Argentine
§ Sena 2019, Chili
§ Cheval des Andes 2018, Argentine

Plus the select group of ‘First Growth Australians’ who joined the group in 2020:

§ Wynn’s John Riddoch 2018
§ Jim Barry The Armagh Shiraz 2017
§ Cloudburst Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Et les sorties d’ex-château de Bordeaux telles que :
§ Château Latour 2005
§ Château Palmer 2011
§ Château d’Issan 2014
§ Y d’Yquem 2020

There are just over 90 wines in total that will be sold through the Place in September 2021, with some particularly important votes of confidence for the Bordeaux system, including Penfolds Bin 169, the first of the range of Australia’s best-known name, and Clos des Goisses LV 1996, a true champagne icon. The number of Italian wines has increased significantly once again, with over 30 big names entering the market through the merchant system, by far the largest number of non-Bordeaux wines. followed by California. The majority are 2019 and 2018 vintages – with a number of bottles of the brilliant 2016 vintage. with a number of bottles of the brilliant 2016 vintage from Brunello. Most of the wines are new releases from great establishments, with the notable exception of Telmo Rodgriguez’s Yjar, which has Rodgriguez, which has chosen the venue to launch an entirely new wine. entirely new wine.My report follows the same scoring system as for my notes on Bordeaux vintages. as for all my notes on Bordeaux vintages. indicative scores that I hope will help you make decisions. to make decisions about what to choose. Always look for the 94 points, as this is often where I place the most exciting names, or the best values that are going to be unbeatable over the next few years (the 94-point Giovanni Rosso, for example, is incredible quality for the price). Don’t just look for the highest number. there are many high scores in this particular report (over 21 wines have 97 points or more). as these are after all iconic wines from some of the world’s best producers, but I will very rarely give 100 points.I will very rarely give 100 points. I also focus on drinkability, going beyond the tasting window to give more specific advice on how and when to open the wines. It’s also fascinating to look at the reasons why estates choose this route to market. This is a topic I’ll be covering in a podcast later this month for janeanson.com and The Wine Conversation, so look out for that. I’ll be doing regular, more in-depth vertical analyses of these names for janeanson.com, starting with Cheval des Andes and Catena Zapata’s Adrianna Vineyard, when the full site launches in October.I’ll be starting with Cheval des Andes and Catena Zapata’s Adrianna Vineyard, when the full site launches in October, and I’ll also be looking at the origins of Opus One in the 1970s and more recently Yjar. But there are success stories in all areas, and the joy of seeing all these names together is the greatest. and the joy of seeing all these names together is that they offer a master class in how different vintages have played out in different regions, and how the challenges and opportunities of each have been managed by some of the world’s greatest winemakers.
