Score 92/100 · Drink 2024-2036, Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate, Dec 2023

This year, Chris Alheit had a delightful little surprise in store for me with a vertical of Cartology from 2022 to 2018. Bursting with energetic acidity, the 2021 Cartology Bush Vines is incredibly food friendly but will need one more year to come around. Medium-bodied, the wine is spicy on the mid-palate with a complex and mineral-laced expression before ending with a succulent finish. Start drinking in 2024.

90% Chenin Blanc, 10% Sémillon. Some veginess on the nose, then richness on the palate. Deeper-flavoured than the Hereafter Here with more obvious honey rather than greenness. (JR)

The 2021 Cartology is a worthy follow-up to the 2020. It unfurls gradually on the nose with honeysuckle and light yellow plum and mirabelle scents, a mineral undertow that stealthily gains prominence. The palate is very well balanced with just a killer line of acidity; Nashi pear and yellow plum commingle towards a resinous finish. After 10 minutes, it really begins to fire on all cylinders - another magnificent Cartology. Superb.
