Your top ten wine holdings by producer?

[Comte Flaneur]

I posted this on the UK wine forum last night and got a huge response, so I thought I would replicate that here. In the UK forum Bordeaux hardly gets a look in and burgundy is clearly king of the castle, with notably strong showings by German riesling, Spanish rioja and some South African wines.

I was definitely an outlier with my top ten - by volume/number of bottles:

1. Leoville Barton
2. La Conseillante
3. Figeac
4. Mouton
5. Lynch Bages
6. Latour
7. Produttori del Barbaresco
8. Ducru Beaucaillou
9. Leoville Lascases
10. Lafite

What is in your top ten?

!. Meyney
2. Cantemerle
3. Sociando-Mallet
4. Giscours
5. Gruaud Larose
6. Labegorce
7. Tour St. Christophe
8. Lafite Rothschild
9/10/11. Chasse Spleen / Corbin / Lynch Bages

1. St Innocent
2. La Lagune
3. Louis Jadot
4. Domaine Drouhin

Harry, Peter Michael just missed my list. I like their chards and Peggy absolutely loves them. Just got a case in today so it would now slot in at #10.

Brian, I think my wife’s palate and yours are very well aligned!

[Harry C.]

David, She has taste, after all, she married you!

Brian, I think my wife’s palate and yours are very well aligned!

I’ve been buying more white wines than reds at my age. With my diet now, Chardonnay and Riesling fit best

[JCNorthway]

I think that I have failed to hold up the high standards of BWE. Of my top ten producers, only one is from Bordeaux.

1. Felsina
2. Frantz Chagnoleau
3. Produttori del Barbaresco
4. Domaine Barraud (tie)
5. Pontet Canet (tie)
6. Domaine du Cayron
7. Camus-Bruchon
8. St. Innocent
9. Lignier-Michelot
10. Il Poggione

[JimHow]

I bought a case of the 2022 Felsina Berindenga chianti, Jon, for $19, it is a more elegantly styled effort than usual but I liked it a lot, Jimmy Suckling and I give it 92+ points, especially when you factor in the QPR.
