James Suckling – "Intensely savory nose with stacks of licorice, wild herb character and a hint of something quite vegetal, possibly from stems. Amazing concentration and very compact structure with a great interplay of restrained ripeness and stony minerality that powers the bold, long, powdery and chalky finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drink or hold." -Stuart Piggot

James Suckling – "A remarkable pinot noir for a village wine with lots of autumnal complexity (underbrush, wet earth, bonfire) in the nose. Then comes the very structured medium-bodied palate with generous tannins and a fine-grained mouthfeel. The long focused finish with a cascade of mineral and wild herb notes completes the impressive picture. 30% whole cluster, wild fermented, then matured for a year in large oak. From biodynamically grown grapes. Unfiltered and unfined. Drink or hold."

James Suckling – "Breathtaking nose of ripe wild berries and herbs, savory and a touch of sous bois. Great concentration and amazingly mouth-filling for just 12.5%, this is a German pinot noir masterpiece and one of the wines of the vintage! Staggering length, the finish still tightly wound. You need some patience to get the best this has to offer. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild-fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drinkable now, but best from 2025."

James Suckling – "This Rheinhessen pinot noir has a striking nose of candied orange and baking spices with hints of herbal liqueur and savory. At one ripe and quite fleshy, but well-structured with a core of fine tannins that drive and focus the long chalky, yet fresh and elegant finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drink or hold."

James Suckling – "Very complex nose of red fruits, candied orange, baking spice, wild herbs and smoke. Equally complex and refined on the tense and beautifully structured palate, perfectly filled out by the fine tannins. Long, filigree and stony finish. From a site with very shallow soil directly over a limestone cliff. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drinkable now, but best from 2024." -Stuart Piggot

Red wine, with its deep hues and multifaceted flavors, has been a cornerstone of many cultures for centuries. Made primarily from black grapes, the range of tastes and aromas these wines can exhibit is truly astounding, all thanks to varying grape varieties, fermentation processes, and aging techniques. One of the most celebrated aspects of red wine is its ability to evolve in the bottle. Over time, flavors meld and mature, transforming a young, fruit-forward wine into a more nuanced, complex delight. This aging process, whether it takes place in oak barrels or in the bottle itself, gives enthusiasts the thrill of experiencing a wine's evolution. Regions play a crucial role in defining the characteristics of red wines. The temperate climate of Bordeaux produces structured wines like Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, while the sun-baked vineyards of Tuscany yield the Sangiovese grape, forming the backbone of the renowned Chianti. Tannins, those compounds that can lend a puckering sensation to the mouth, are another signature feature of red wines. These natural preservatives are what allow some wines to be cellared for decades, emerging more refined and harmonious with age. Beyond just being a beverage, red wine is a journey, a reflection of the land and climate, the grape variety, and the vision of the winemaker. It's a testament to nature's bounty and human innovation intertwined in every bottle.
Red wine is a type of wine made primarily from dark-colored (red or black) grape varieties. The actual color of the wine can range from intense violet, for young wines, to brick red for mature wines, and even brown for older red wines. The juice from most purple and red grapes is greenish-white; the red color comes from anthocyanin pigments present in the grape skins. The winemaking process involves fermenting grape juice in contact with its skins, allowing the liquid to extract color, flavors, and tannins from them. Red wines typically offer flavors of dark fruits like cherries, blackberries, and plums, often accompanied by notes of tobacco, leather, and spices, influenced by grape variety and aging techniques.
Red wine is produced globally, but certain regions have earned accolades for their signature reds. Bordeaux in France is renowned for its Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blends. Burgundy, another French region, is celebrated for its world-class Pinot Noir. Italy's Tuscany region produces iconic wines like Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino, primarily from the Sangiovese grape. Napa Valley in California is famed for its robust Cabernet Sauvignon wines. Spain's Rioja offers superb Tempranillo-based wines, and Australia's Barossa Valley is known for its bold Shiraz.
The world of red wine has several stars. Cabernet Sauvignon, known for its deep color and complexity, is globally recognized. Pinot Noir, with its delicate flavors and versatility, has a vast following. Merlot, Shiraz (or Syrah, depending on the region), and Zinfandel also hold significant positions in the market. Popular brands range from Bordeaux's Château Margaux, Burgundy's Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, to Napa's Opus One and Australia's Penfolds.
For those seeking excellent value, regions like Chile's Central Valley and Spain's La Mancha offer top-quality red wines at very accessible prices. Malbec from Argentina, particularly from the Mendoza region, consistently over-delivers in terms of quality to price ratio. South Africa's Western Cape and parts of southern Italy, like Puglia, are also treasure troves for value-driven, quality red wines.
Red wines, with their robust flavors and tannic structure, pair wonderfully with red meats. Think of a juicy steak with a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon or lamb chops with a Shiraz. Pinot Noir, being more delicate, pairs brilliantly with dishes like roasted chicken, duck, or salmon. Spaghetti Bolognese and other tomato-based pasta dishes go hand in hand with Italian reds like Chianti. For spicy barbecued dishes, a fruity Zinfandel or Grenache can be a match made in heaven. The key is to match the wine's intensity and flavors with those of the dish for a harmonious pairing.
