Wines worth buying again.
Tasting notes on the bottles I would happily fill my fridge with, and the rare ones that earn their price. Each scored out of 20 and read through its terroir, its winemaking and what the growing season actually did at the vineyard.

2020 Château Lafitte Argile, Monein
19/20 A humdinger Now to 2031
Petit Manseng with a sherry-like streak: quince, ripe stone fruit, bruised apple, citrus and marzipan, a savoury oxidative edge and beeswax texture, all cut through by electric acidity and a long, saline finish. Strange, and thrilling.
