Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good full red. Perfumed, high-toned aromas of red and dark berries, pungent spicy oak and flowers. Youthfully tight and not showing its flesh today, with a peppery quality co...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2010 Nuits St. Georges is rich, powerful and decidedly masculine in style. It reveals plenty of length if not quite the sensuality of the Vosne. Still it is another overac...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2007 Toscana Rosso is a very pretty wine. The warm, radiant personality comes through in the generous, supple red fruit. Rose petal, red cherries and flowers linger on the...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Sauvignon offers up plenty of varietal character in its white peaches, lime, tomato leaf and sage, all of which come together nicely in this representative Friulian S...

Wine Spectator: Smelling like coffee and toasty oak, with cherry and plum flavors, this rich red is backed by dense, yet enveloped, tannins. A powerful version, boasting loads of sweet fruit ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good medium red. Spicy raspberry and a sweet hint of chocolate on the nose. Spicy and tight, with lovely acid cut and energy to the crunchy red fruit flavors. Finishes with...

Wine Spectator: Lovely floral aromas of berries, violets and minerals. Full-bodied, with firm tannins and a racy finish. A harmonious yet well-toned Warre. Reminds me of the 1991. Best after ...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: I was quite surprised with the 2011 Chablis Fourchaume, which is one of the least expressive of these 2011s. Today it comes across as ethereal and elusive, with moderate overa...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2010 Morey St. Denis Tres Girard is dark, plush and inviting. Plums, black cherries, violets, spices and licorice are some of the nuances that take shape in the glass in t...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes is another of the more open, accessible wines in this lineup. This isn't the last word in complexity, but the wine has the density a...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Montevertine comes across as more classic than the Pergole Torte. Firm yet well-integrated tannins support expressive sweet red cherries, freshly cut flowers and mint...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2010 Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru is a bit darker, stonier and more mineral than the villages. Layers of black fruit, spices and licorice wrap around the palate in this gorgeous...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: A delicious entry-level offering, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon CrossBarn is a beautiful wine with plenty of vintage character. Dark cherries, plums, new leather and licorice ju...

Wine Spectator: Sporting beef bouillon and balsamic notes, this red's mix of cherry, iron, leather and tea flavors is backed by a sinewy frame. The tannins leave a drying impression, but this...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is a big, bold wine imbued with wild cherries, earthiness, tar, smoke and grilled herbs. This shows more of the rustic side of Sangiovese in it...
