2023 was a great year to be a wine lover! I tasted so many great wines over the past 12 months. Wines as old as the 1940s and 50s, and a few from 2022. You will find a lot of Bordeaux as well as Rhone Valley wines from Cote Rotie, Hermitage and Chateauneuf du Pape, Napa Valley and more!
All great vintages offer character and style at all ends of the spectrum. And with 2020 Bordeaux, every appellation produced strong wines. The St. Emilion Satellite Appellations offer fabulous wines that drink well early while offering value as well. Regions like this prove you do not need to spend a lot of money to drink well.
