NEW: Praise and blame of corked wines

Syrah from France, Germany and California are tested now.

This time, there are two interesting wines from Piedmont and, as a highlight, a Dunn Howell Mountain.

Today there is a Chardonnay from Ramey and a Gattinara from Nervi.

There is a rarity from Switzerland, a mature Californian wine, and a Bordeaux.

The Dunn wines from the 1980s and 1990s are sensational. We taste four vintages from the peak period.

Today we have an excellent red wine from Jonata in California.

The wines this time are the Krug Rosé and an older Jackass Hill from Martinelli.

Here we have Argiolas 1995 Turriga and Caymus 2019 Zinfandel.

This time we have a fascinating Chardonnay from Martinelli. This wine needs a lot of air and gets better and better over several days.

Today we have a champagne from Marguet, an exotic white wine from the Teutoburger Wald, a mature Caymus Special Selection and a young Rauzan-Segla.

This time there is a port wine from the great Californian vintage 1974.

This time there is a white wine from Egypt, a Californian Chardonnay and a rare Barolo.

Spätburgunder vs. Pinot Noir: Krone 2008 Assmannshäuser Höllenberg Spätburgunder and Morlet 2019 Côteaux Nobles (Fort Ross Seaview, Sonoma County Pinot Noir).

Here we have a sensational degustation with Ramey 2009, Vina Tondonia Gran Reserva Blanco and Domaine de Thalabert.

Today we have a Champagne, a Syrah from California and a white wine from Lake Constance (Bodensee).

A champagne and a mature Californian - what more could you want?

We haven't had a Dunn Howell Mountain for a while, now it's time again. And there's a Riesling from Dreissigacker that, like the Unico Especial, was composed from several vintages.

There is Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from California. In terms of quality, you can do without Burgundy.

Gaja Sperss 1997, Gaja Sperss 1998 and Jonata 2010 La Sangre de Jonata - it's an exhausting tasting when the wines are all so good you don't want to spit them.

Here we have a Riesling from Australia and a Californian Chardonnay.

This time we have Kongsgaard 2016 Fimasaurus (Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot) and Schnaitmann 2015 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve.

Here we have another classic, Bordeaux versus California.

This is the first vintage of a cuvee with Chardonnay, Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc.

Today we have 2 champagnes, a Chardonnay from California and one of the best Lemberger.

There is an aperitif without alcohol and two great Chardonnays from California.

We have a mature red wine from the Kamptal and two great Pinot Noirs.

There is Cardinale Estate Red from California and Charles Heidsieck Blanc de Blancs from Champagne.

We have 2018 Pinot Noir Occidental Station Vineyard and 2016 Arneis Sette Anni.

We taste a Blanc de Blancs, two Chardonnays from California and a wine from Chile.

The prices for Burgundy wines are high, so California is always an alternative. We taste two wines that should both be great.

Today there is one Merlot from the Napa Valley and two Barolo.
