Burghound: A more deeply pitched red and blue pinot fruit nose that also reflects subtle earth and sauvage hints. There is excellent detail to the sleekly muscular and firm medium-bodied...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Deep ruby. Pungent aromas of blackberry, licorice and violet. Lush and densely packed, with solid grip to its dark fruit, spice and floral pastille flavors. On the serious, br...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright ruby. Sexy, high-pitched aromas of raspberry, cherry, spicecake and pungent herbs. Juicy, sharply focused red berry and bitter cherry flavors gain sweetness with air an...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Syrah caresses the palate with generous blueberries, blackberries and French oak. There isn't much varietal character or nuance here, instead the wine impresses for i...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Pale yellow. Reticent nose hints at wet stone and soft citrus fruits. Rich and fat, with broad, palate-saturating peach and mineral flavors. Nicely integrated acidity gives...

Burghound: Here the nose is sufficiently reduced that it renders the nose unreadable. There is by contrast excellent verve and freshness to the full-bodied and attractively rich middle w...

Burghound: Ripe and dense dark berry fruit aromas trimmed in moderate wood give way to attractively textured, precise and intensely mineral-driven big-bodied flavors that culminate in a ...

Burghound: An intensely earthy and very fresh layered red berry fruit suffused nose introduces rich and full-bodied flavors where the volume imposes no diminution of the precise and deta...

Wine Spectator: Though rich, this has a sinewy quality and a firm structure supporting its blackberry, black currant and violet aromas and flavors. Bright, fresh and still tight on the long f...

Burghound: Note: a 1 ha blend of Groseilles, Baudes, Noirots and Gruenchers, which interestingly are all bunched together, geographically speaking. This is slightly riper and certainly m...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate spent 14 months in 100% new barrels. It is a rich, textured wine endowed with exquisite finesse and class in its dark black fruit, grilled h...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: ($135) Medium red, a bit brighter than the Latricieres. Lively aromas of red cherry, raspberry and minerals. More tightly wound than the Latricieres, with a solid supporting s...

Burghound: This is also relatively wood-influenced as the oak sets off ripe but fresh aromas of plum, spice and earth, all of which continue onto the powerful and well-muscled middle wei...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Volnay Clos des Angles emerges from the glass with fragrant red fruit. This is a relatively soft style of Volnay that shows the open, accessible personality of the ye...

Wine Spectator: A firm edge puts this Champagne in focus, framing its vanilla, toast and grapefruit flavors. On the dry side, with a bracing finish, so give it a little time or enjoy with del...

Wine Spectator: Toasty, with a frothy bead, this mixes accents of candied pineapple and ginger with flavors of white peach, biscuit and roasted hazelnut. A hint of smoky tar shows on the firm...
