Taking the No. 4 spot on our Top 100 Wines of France 2026 list is the Château Trottevieille St.-Emilion 2023. Following a top 2022 release, Philippe Castéja and Frédéric Castéja have produced another exceptional red, distinguished by its balance, drinkability and value.
The 2023 benefits significantly from near-perfect cabernet franc in the blend. It features 53 percent cabernet franc, 44 percent merlot and 3 percent cabernet sauvignon. The nose opens with deep aromas of sweet black plums, blackberries, cocoa powder, chalk and refined spices. On the palate, juicy, compressed fruit is framed by fine, dusty tannins that lend texture and character to a racy, persistent finish. It is already approachable now, with the balance to age gracefully. Read the full Top 100 Wines of France 2026 report here: jamessuckling.com/wine-tasti…

Bellevue, one of South Africa's legacy wine farms, has for practical purposes shut its doors. Made wine since 1820. Home of world's first commercial Pinotage vineyards. Staff - some of which worked there for generations - been retrenched. No news of next steps for the property.

The world of wine is shrinking. Vines are being ripped out, consumption is falling and younger drinkers are choosing differently. So what survives, asks @michaelfridjhon? The best wines? The best-funded producers? Or simply those most capable of adapting when the dust settles? winemag.co.za/wine/opinion/m…

Indeed! 🍷
Unpopular truth: The most captivating, benchmark Syrah on the planet right now isn’t coming from the Northern Rhône. It’s coming from South Africa.
If your reference point is still the jammy, oak-drenched “Shiraz” relics of yesteryear, you are two decades out of touch.
Today’s Cape vignerons are delivering what global palates actually crave:
Electric natural tension over sluggish, jammy weight
Whole-bunch aromatic lift and raw cracked-pepper drive
Ancient granite and schist minerality—zero cellar makeup
20-year structural bones with immediate, pure drinkability
While Cornas and Côte-Rôtie demand blue-chip tariffs, the Cape is delivering genuine grand cru pedigree right in the glass.
The paradigm has shifted. Blind your palates and wake up your cellars. 🇿🇦🍷
