Burghound: Cool, pure and beautifully layered nose features notes of red pinot fruit, smoked tea and subtle toast notes. There is fine definition to the large-scaled, intense and solidly...

Wine Spectator: A little stern on the nose, but boasting ripe, juicy raspberry and spicy cherry on the palate. This is very supple and lively, with power and a lingering aftertaste of spice a...

Burghound: Very ripe (indeed there are background hints of roasted fruit) and complex aromas give way to rich, intense and overtly muscular flavors that possess imposing size and weight ...

Burghound: This is the most complex of the three '09 grands crus with a penetrating and ripe nose of plum, pungent earth, game, black cherry and violets. The full-bodied, dense and overt...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright ruby. Much more reticent on the nose and palate than the village wine, with a pronounced minerality to the blackberry and licorice components. Tightly wound but still v...

Burghound: Note: from vines situated in En Orveaux planted in 1923, 1947, 1964 and 1979 totaling .56 ha. As is it in 2010, this is notably riper with spicy aromas of dark berry and viole...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes is a wonderfully complete Burgundy with superb delineation in its aromas and flavors. The intensity of the fruit carries through nicel...

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...

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...

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...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Very fresh bright, dark red. Perfumed nose offers black raspberry, menthol and a whiff of meat. Fat, ripe, dense and rich but classically dry; this came across as a bit mono...

Wine Spectator: A burly, meaty red, packed with dark cherry and berry flavors, but also a hint of smoke and tar. On the palate, this begins with a blast of fruit, before yielding to stiff, dr...

Wine Spectator: This is rich and plush in texture, sporting blackberry and black cherry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied and muscular, needing air to open, with fine length. Give this time, or...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good deep red. Reticent aromas of black cherry, coffee and mocha. Fatter and riper than the Vieilles Vignes but a bit more liqueur-like and showing more oaky torrefaction. ...

Wine Spectator: A reduced smoky aroma needs air to dissipate, while underneath are pure black cherry, blackberry, violet, spice and iron flavors. Well-toned and athletic, with a graceful fini...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Saturated medium ruby. Deep aromas of kirsch, smoke, minerals, flowers and earth are reticent but pure. Big, rich and broad, with harmonious acidity framing the black cherry, ...

Jancis Robinson: Not racked. Just out of new barrel. Lovely sweet fruit and just needs a bit of time to absorb the oak. Lovely stuff. Great hedonistic purple-fruit flavours. He says `wait at l...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Dark red. Chocolatey oak, caramel and coffee on the rather anonymous, slightly warm nose, with an exotic aspect. Sweet and creamy but a bit chunky in texture, with very ripe h...
