- 100 Punkte JEB DUNNUCK (082024): An absolute blockbuster of a white as well as a perfect wine, the 2021 Distenta III White offers up a vivid gold hue as well as incredible aromatics of stone fruits, toasted bread, green almond, and fresh croissants. This is no lightweight quaffer, and it brings full-bodied richness and depth while at the same time staying flawlessly balanced, light on its feet, pure, and precise. This heavenly white will benefit from a year in bottle and, I suspect, have over a decade of prime drinking, although I see no need to push the aging curve. The blend is 33 Chardonnay, 27 Viognier, 24 Gelber Muskateller, 12 Roussanne, and the rest Petit Manseng, with the élevage spanning 23 months in 53 new oak. 2024-2034
- 99 Punkte The Wine Palate (062025): The 2021 White Wine Distenta III is composed of 33 Chardonnay, 27 Viognier, 24 Gelber Muskateller, 12 Roussanne, and 4 Petit Manseng. It comes predominately from Eleven Confessions Vineyard (79), with small proportions from The Third Twin and Cumulus. It was aged in mainly French oak puncheons and demi-muids for 23 months, with 52 new oak. The longer these whites are in barrel, the better I like them, says Manfred Krankl. It waltzes out of the glass with showy scents of ripe apricots, honey-drizzled pears, apple butter, and orange blossoms, giving way to hints of allspice, candied ginger, and almond croissant. The full-bodied palate explodes with orchard fruit and baking spice flavor layers, framed by a racy backbone and creamy texture, finishing very long with a gingery lift. 914 cases made. 2025-2036.
