As an added bonus, even the best wines will all be approachable on release, or with just a modicum of aging.

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!
