Why we're still in love with French wines
French wine has always been popular on these shores and we are prepared to pay a lot more for it — upwards of £9 a bottle. Compare that to the pathetic average we pay for a bottle of Italy's best, just £6.53, while Australia's not much better at £6.62. It's all down to centuries of French natural selection: planting the right grapes in the right patch of dirt on the right slope and then, care of endless trial and error, vinifying the results to get the very best from the vines. It's this sacred notion of terroir, or sense of place, enshrined in the appellation laws of France, that has kept the country ahead of its competitors. The familiarity our nearest wine-producing neighbour's wines, styles and grapes is another big draw. At the top end, most wine drinkers know what they can expect from the classic French regions of Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône. Indeed, with more great wines made in France than anywhere else in the world, there will always be drinkers for whom no other country's wines will do. Equally, down at the everyday drinking level, most of us know what a simple yet sparky French sauvignon should taste like, or a plump Gallic merlot, or citrussy chardonnay. Alongside rejuvenating old vineyards and planting new ones, a more polished, restrained yet experimental era of French wines has begun, still with flavour but with oak used as seasoning, rather than centre stage, adding up to the sort of understated Gallic elegance that makes you want to not just reach for a second glass but drain the whole bottle. • Read more reviews from our wine experts Given the variety and diversity of today's French wines, it would take several lifetimes to taste the lot and, frankly, you'd never get bored. Of all the French wine styles in vogue, it's sales of crémant, the next best thing to champagne, that are rocketing. Crémant de Limoux from the Languedoc makes an intriguing change to those of Burgundy and the Loire. Helpfully, Waitrose has knocked £4 off its Cremant de Limoux, Cuvée Royale. Now £10, it's a bold, fresh brown bread-scented chardonnay-led version that needs to be served cold, is best drunk with food and will still be too punchy for some. From the other end of the country, the Loire's delicious, crunchy, red berry-fruited cabernet francs make perfect chilled reds. Nab the 2023 Lulu l'Alouette Chinon, a herby, organic, red berry charmer from Majestic at £13.50 a bottle. It's Burgundy, though, where ancient and modern Gallic expertise shines. Take your pick from the rich, nutty yet minerally charge of Asda's classy 2023 Brocard Premier Cru Chablis (£22.92) and the smoky, mature, truffle elegance of Domaine Lécheneaut's 2021 Côtes de Nuits Villages, Le Clos de Magny ( £35). • 2025 wine trends: swap pricey classics for unusual finds 2023 La Chevalière Syrah, Patrick Jasmin, France12 per cent, £19.95This seriously good Collines Rhodaniennes syrah punches well above its weight with lavender and tangy red cherry. 2022 Santenay 1er Beauregard, Fornerot, France13.5 per cent, £32Jérôme Fornerot's white St Aubin rocks but this leafy, floral star shows he makes tasty red burgundy too. 2023 Finest Chablis, France12.5 per cent, Tesco, £15Nowt beats this lively, steely, saline-edged La Chablisienne co-op chablis with seafood — try it. Crémant de Loire Rosé, France12 per cent, Asda, £9.36Can't afford champagne? Plump for a pretty, blush pink, rose petal-scented cabernet franc crémant instead. • The best summer wines — the critic's picks from £5 2023 Bonny Doon Le Cigare Orange, US11.5 per cent, Tesco, £13 down from £15.25More than £2 cheaper than it was last month, this strong, smoky, tea-leaf orange wine loves big food. 2024 Irresistible Assyrtiko, Greece13 per cent, Co-op, £9 down from £10Plumped up with a dab of viognier, dive into this seductive, dry, summery, samphire and basil-licked assyrtiko. 2024 Deluxe South African Fairtrade Chenin Blanc13.5 per cent, Lidl, £6.99One of the best whites on show at a recent Lidl tasting, with delicious, buttery chenin fruit and a tickle of spice. 2024 Found Marzemino, Italy11.5 per cent, Marks & Spencer, £8Unoaked, ripe, yet earthy, red, made exclusively from the marzemino grape, with easy-drinking, plummy fruit.

For Some New Zealand Winemakers, Māori Beliefs Lead the Way
In February, I traveled to New Zealand for the first time, to take part in Pinot Noir New Zealand 2025 in Christchurch, a gathering examining the central topic from all angles. We discussed soils and environmentalism, tariffs and trade, tasted dozens of wines, renewed old acquaintances and forged new ones. I gave a talk, on the place of New Zealand pinot noir on the world stage. (Spoiler alert: It currently has a bit role but shows potential.) But one significant feature made this wine conference entirely different from any I've ever attended. Enormous care was taken to weave the culture of the Māori, the Indigenous inhabitants of New Zealand, into the fabric of the event just as it is in the identity of the country. During the conference, Māori speakers introduced and summarized the Māori conception of tūrangawaewae (too-rung-uh-WAY-way), how the characteristics of a place define the identity and culture of the people who come from there. As I understood the thought, it goes well beyond the simple formula of place determining personality. Tūrangawaewae is often translated as 'a place to stand,' which suggests as well that people belong to a place and can be their most authentic selves when they are in that place. It's a complex idea that I admittedly understand superficially. But, as any wine lover might do, I immediately jumped to the French notion of terroir, the idea that the singular qualities of a particular place and people can be expressed through a wine.

Riesling Wine's 590th Anniversary: Toast Purity, Precision, & Passion
Two glasses of Riesling wine with a Mosel river valley vineyard in the background. getty Riesling is Germany's most iconic grape, celebrated worldwide for producing some of the most nuanced, age-worthy white wines on the planet. It's deeply tied to Germany's wine identity and has been cultivated there for centuries. This year marks the 590th anniversary of Riesling's documented cultivation in Germany, although it was likely cultivated much earlier. Below is a brief overview of the history of the Riesling grape and tasting notes on a representative sample of Riesling wines. Origins Riesling's birthplace is likely the Rhine region of Germany. The first documented mention of Riesling dates to March 13, 1435, in a cellar inventory from Rüsselsheim, near the Rheingau. By the 15th and 16th centuries, Riesling had spread through the Rhine and Mosel valleys, prized for its ability to thrive in steep, slate-rich vineyards and its capacity to express terroir with remarkable precision. Over the centuries, Riesling became the backbone of Germany's top vineyard sites along the Mosel, Rheingau, Rheinhessen, Pfalz, and Nahe. It was so highly regarded that, during the 18th and 19th centuries, great German Rieslings often commanded higher prices than First Growth Bordeaux and Burgundy Grand Crus. Today, it represents about 25% of Germany's vineyard capacity. Riesling is highly expressive of terroir. Vineyards on slate, limestone, or sandstone impart distinct mineral notes, aroma, and taste profiles. Its naturally high acidity keeps wines vibrant and age-worthy. Riesling also offers a wide range of styles from bone dry to ultra-sweet. Additionally, it is among the longest-lived white wines. Top Rieslings can evolve in the bottle for decades, producing honeyed, petrol, and dried fruit nuances. The varietal's resilience in cool climates, its naturally high acidity, and its ability to ripen slowly while retaining aromatic complexity made it perfect for Germany's challenging northern vineyards. It can excel in styles ranging from bone-dry Trocken to progressively sweeter Kabinett, Auslese, Spatlese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese, and Eiswein — often from the same vineyard. Riesling is also widely used in Germany to craft sparkling wines. Aroma and Taste Profile Riesling is intensely aromatic. Young dry examples show lively notes of green apple, lime, lemon zest, pear, and white peach along with floral hints of jasmine and honeysuckle. Aged Riesling develops its signature kerosene/diesel note — a prized trait for serious fans, often emerging naturally from the grape's high concentration of specific aroma precursors. Riesling is defined by its marked acidity, a perfect counterpoint to its natural sweetness and fruitiness, lending even the ripest, sweetest examples a fresh, acidic backbone. Dry versions are crisp and mineral-driven, with flavors of fresh orchard fruit and citrus, often accompanied by herbal notes and a distinct wet stone minerality. Sweeter styles feature flavors of ripe apricot, honey, candied citrus peel, and exotic spices, balanced by that signature acid snap. The finish is usually long, clean, and mouthwatering with lingering fruity notes. View over the Riesling vineyards near Bingen with the sights Mäuseturm, Rheinknie and Burg Ehrenfels getty Below is a brief description and tasting notes on a selection of German Riesling wines that illustrate the range of their aroma and taste profile. Karl Haidle, Ritzling, 2021 Riesling Trocken, 12% ABV, 750 ml. Karl Haidle is a standout Swabian estate in Württemberg, renowned for its elegant dry Rieslings and expressive terroir-driven wines.

The palate is tangy and mineral-driven, with notes of tart pear, citrus peel, and a bracing, clean finish. A classic Trocken style Riesling with mouthwatering acidity, a refreshing edge, and lingering orchard fruit notes. Dönnhoff, Oberhäuser Leistenberg, Riesling Kabinett, 2021, 8.5% ABV, 750 ml. Dönnhoff is a legendary Nahe estate renowned for its precise and expressive Rieslings. Oberhäuser Leistenberg is a steep, sheltered vineyard that produces refined Kabinett wines, characterized by delicate sweetness balanced with vibrant acidity. The wine is light gold, featuring aromas of white peach, lemon blossom, and wet stone. The palate showcases crisp green apple and ripe pear, with a hint of sweetness, typical of Kabinett-style Rieslings, balanced by pronounced acidity. It's elegant and flavorful, with a subtle finish and lingering minerality. Monchhof, Mosel Slate, Riesling Spätlese, 8% ABV, 750 ml. One of the Mosel's oldest estates, dating back to 1177, Monchhof crafts classic Mosel Spätlese: a lightly sweet, delicate, and intensely mineral wine from the region's signature slate soils. The wine is a pale yellow, featuring notes of peach, apricot, and honeysuckle. The palate showcases ripe stone fruit, hints of tangerine, and a touch of floral honey, offset by crisp acidity. The finish is subtly sweet, balanced by vibrant freshness and a clean, lingering slatey note. Selbach-Oster, Zeltinger Schlossberg Riesling Auslese, Schmitt, 2019, 8% ABV, 750 ml. Selbach-Oster's Auslese from the steep Schlossberg vineyard highlights the Mosel's ability to make lusciously sweet wines with great finesse. The 'Schmitt' parcel often produces tiny yields of botrytized berries. The wine is golden yellow, featuring aromas of canned peaches, honeycomb, and orange marmalade. It's lush and viscous on the palate, showcasing apricot, mango, and spicy ginger. The rich sweetness is balanced by lively acidity, resulting in a silky, lingering, and luxurious finish. A glass and bottle of a late harvest Riesling white wine on a barrel with a vineyard in the background getty Dr. Loosen, Riesling Beerenauslese, 2017, 7% ABV, 375 ml.

The wine is a rich, deep gold featuring intense aromas of dried apricot, honeyed figs, and caramelized orange peel. The palate is ultra-rich and syrupy, with layers of honey, spiced tropical fruit, and candied ginger. A racy acidity balances the sweetness, resulting in a luscious, age-worthy wine with a lingering, honeyed finish. Dr. Loosen Bros, Riesling Sparkling, 12% ABV, 750 ml. Dr. Loosen Bros crafts this fresh, lightly off-dry sparkling Riesling using the Charmat method. It's a crisp, easy-drinking sparkling wine that showcases bright Mosel fruit. The wine is a pale straw with a lively mousse, featuring aromas of green apple, lemon-lime, and white flowers. It's crisp and fruity on the palate with citrus and ripe pear notes, and a touch of sweetness balanced by zesty acidity. It's light-bodied, refreshing, and excellent as an aperitif.

One Sonoma Winemaker's Passionate Pursuit Of Expressing Terroir In Wine
Does Hamel's Nun Canyon Vineyard have the terroir or not? JIMMY HAYES Walk into a vineyard and what do you see? Vines and soil, sun and sky—a snapshot of place, a moment in the vineyard's lifetime. The ecosystem here is influenced by a myriad of factors. Some work over eons—building the bedrock, for example—and some change daily. Taken together, along with the wine maker's hands, these slow and fast factors present a unique taste of time and place in wine. This concept, known in French as terroir, provides what passionate wine enthusiasts believe influence a wine's character, and the authentic expression of craftsmanship sought by younger wine consumers. Winemakers, by and large, recognize terroir as a key component to wine growing, yet often disagree about how and where it is achieved. As a Sonoma Valley winemaker, John Hamel, winemaker of Hamel Family Wines, is deeply passionate about expressing Hamel wines' terroir, something he feels is easier for European winemakers than those in California. To achieve this lofty goal, he partners with world-renowned terroir specialist, Pedro Parra. The results are a promising work in progress. 'Does [Hamel Family Wines] have the terroir or not? Because you have all the ideas, all the philosophy, and then you don't have the site. And if you don't have the site, in my experience, there's not many things that you can do.' 'I love European wines. There's a character in those wines that you find more often and with more intensity that I would call minerality,' says Hamel. 'In California, I think there's a very technologically savvy approach. We're very technical, but the connection between the wines and the place and the resulting minerality that you get in the wines is lower frequency, lower volume.' In 2016, Hamel learned Parra was asking similar questions about why some regions produce wines of tension and energy with ease while others struggle. Having wrestled with locating unique site expression consulting California wineries in the past, Parra was ready to re-up the challenge. However, he knew it would be risky. 'Does [Hamel Family Wines] have the terroir or not? Because you have all the ideas, all the philosophy, and then you don't have the site. And if you don't have the site, in my experience, there's not many things that you can do,' says Parra. Hamel Family Wines is located in Sonoma's Mayacamas Mountains, part of the California Coast Ranges that formed one-hundred million years ago. As the two began researching and mapping the estate vineyards, they discovered basalt in the early stages of decomposition—a bounty of volcanic stones—in the Nuns Canyon vineyard. This high elevation sloped site is filled with fractures formed by a lava flow three million years ago, in a Mediterranean climate. Early signs for expressing terroir. 'The stonier the terroir, the more character, the more depth, more energy, tension, the things that really make a wine distinctive and unique and interesting and fascinating. And it's the thing that I loved about the wines from Europe. Once we were able to dissect the terroir, you can see very clearly the conditions that give you those types of wines,' Hamel says. To maximize this sense of place, Hamel estate has been Demeter certified biodynamic since 2015. Additionally, eighty percent of the vines are not irrigated, a practice known as dry-farming. Because the un-decomposed basalt is fractured rock, the fractures act as a tunnel for rain to flow through while simultaneously allowing the vines' roots to grow deeper in source of water and nutrients. Many colleagues told Hamel dry-farming was a bad idea. It is too hard in California and that the quality of the wine would suffer. But an early mentor of Hamel's, Tod Mostero, director of viticulture and winemaking at Dominus Estate in Napa Valley, demonstrates dry farming can be successful. Hamel's experience has been equally successful, finding the vines with deeper root systems produce higher quality wines. He is quick to suggest he is not seeking regenerative farming for the sake of it. Rather, it's part of the team's fundamental philosophy of extracting as much expression of place as possible to make the best wines. He also believes his vines are better adept at weathering climate change perturbations because they are resilient to heat spikes and erratic weather patterns. Hamel Family Nuns Canyon Vineyard is a high elevation sloped site is filled with fractures formed by a lava flow three million years ago, in a Mediterranean climate Hamel Family Vineyard Beyond his vineyard work, Hamel intervenes as little as possible in the winemaking process. 'You see something that's very evocative and, you know, things like oak, things like over maceration, all these tools and equipment in the winery just starts to get in the way of that. And when you show that, you don't want there to be any makeup on that. You want to show the thing itself, Hamel says. 'And I think in a way, Pedro cured me of the inherent American mentality, which is if you just work hard enough on something, it'll be good. Terroir is not as democratic as that. Ultimately, we've got areas that are very, very good.' Parra believes over the past nine years they have come a long way in understanding the vineyards and maximizing farming methods to express place through vitality in the glass. What's next? Parra says its consolidation. 'To me, consolidation is the last stage. And that means that you are confident enough, holistic enough, and you have the confidence to be able to be proud and show it to the rest of the world. You can play the game well, but you need to score. To me, where're in the beginning of that era.' However, Parra offers high praise for Hamel. He sees what Hamel is doing is incredible and worthy of respect. 'John is a Ferrari. He's driving super fast. He has the terroir, the mentality, he's hungry, and few others are doing this in California. So, the future is incredible. It takes time to get the people to know and respect what is behind the wine, but it's going to happen. In three years, five, ten, I don't know. But it's inevitable because the terroir is great and the wines are great so it's going to happen.' Will Hamel Family Wine fully realize John Hamel's vision? Both men suggest it takes a couple of decades to determine grand cru quality wine. However, the current vintage delivers vibrancy, finesse, and tension, transporting oenophiles and novices alike to the ancient lava flows of Nun's Canyon Vineyard in the Mayacamas Mountains, truly a sense of place.
