Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes is an immediate wine. The aromatics alone are beautifully open and expressive. The fruit shows terrific delineation, depth and nuance wi...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Corton-Cuvee de Bourdon is a freakish, dark wine endowed with loads of jammy fruit, white flowers, licorice and spices. It is a sumptuous, even extreme wine that is n...

About this Wine: If any town can claim to be born under the auspices of a guiding star, Beaune can. The star, seen on numerous paintings or embroideries at the Hôtel-Dieu, is the love between ...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Vougeot Le Clos du Prieure is another of the more delicate, restrained wines in this lineup. Sweet, silky tannins and floral notes round out the finish. Anticipated m...

Jeff Loo: Pinkish ruby at the core with very little variation at the rim. The nose is very pretty, with notes of cherry, violet and a touch of animale, followed by hints of spice and ea...

Eddie Wolowski: Deep red core with a brilliant ruby rim. Aromas of red currant and spice lead into a ripe palate. With its lush mouthfeel, notes of black cherry and red fruit emerge, along wi...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Deep saturated red. Knockout tangy aromas of raspberry, wild cherry, exotic spices, flowers and blood orange. Huge, velvety and sweet but with superb mineral lift. This has at...

Wine Spectator: Rich, concentrated and juicy, this lush 2009 boasts black cherry, raspberry and spice notes, bolstered by a firm structure and showing balance and fine length. Best from 2015 ...

Neil Mechanic: Medium dark ruby. The bouquet is packed with dried Morello cherry, forest floor and earth tones laced with Chinese five spice and cinnamon notes. After a decant, Pommard's cla...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good medium-deep red. Knockout nose combines raspberry, smoke, spices and loamy soil tones. Fat, sweet, sexy and rich, but with ripe, harmonious acidity giving shape to the ...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Jermann's 2009 Red Angel opens with dark, mysterious hints of tobacco, dark cherries, earthiness and incense. The wine fleshes out nicely on the mid-palate and finish as it co...

Burghound: Discreet wood is almost lost on the densely fruited, closed and brooding nose of ripe red berry fruit liqueur, warm earth and anise. There is excellent freshness and verve to ...

Wine Spectator: A spicy version, sporting cinnamon, clove, licorice and black cherry aromas and flavors. This is intense, verging on chewy in texture, with a firm underlying structure. Licori...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright dark red. Perfumed aromas of raspberry, kirsch and rose petal. Silky but youthfully tight and wound-up, with a strong stony minerality giving the wine real verve and gr...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: (As with the Cras, Meo buys grapes and does the vineyard work here, under a contract that Allexant described as "like a metayage or fermage") Good dark red. Ripe, fruit-domina...

Wine Spectator: Pretty black currant and floral aromas and flavors lead off in this supple Nuits, which has a solid base of tannins, but balances all the elements well. The long, fruit-filled...
