Red Wine from Cote De Beaune

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (91-93 points) The 2016 Corton-Perrières Grand Cru has a crisp, well-defined bouquet with blackberry and crushed strawberry, mixed with wet limestone and loamy scents that gather momentum in the glass. The palate is not...

Burghound, 93 points: A very spicy nose that is earthier still and also notably sauvage in character combines with ripe aromas of black raspberry, plum and exotic tea that are again trimmed in enough wood to notice. There is a beguiling mouth...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (91-93) The 2015 Pommard 1er Cru Les Epenots was one of the standouts from Dubreuil-Fontaine this year. It has an impressive, well-defined, very focused bouquet with blackberry, raspberry, damp earth and woodlands scents...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: (90-92 points) The 2014 Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru comes from two blended parcels and sees around 20% new oak. It has more density than the village cru on the nose: blackberry and light stony scents, perhaps just a touch of...

View From The Cellar, 90 points: The 1976 Santenots from Domaine Robert Ampeau is a very good example of the vintage that has resolved its tannins quite well and now shows no rough edges on the backend. The deep, complex and slightly roasted nose offers...

Vinous, 95 points: (93-95) The 2017 Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru was tasted from different sectors of the vineyard. The first sample, tasted directly from tank, comes from two parcels, one at the bottom part of the clos populated by...

Vinous, 93 points: (ST91-93 points) Impressively deep, dark ruby-red color. Black cherry, dark chocolate and violet on the nose, complicated by subtle hints of menthol and pepper. Distinctly sweeter and fruitier than the classique, with an...

Vinous, 92 points: 92+ Bright red. Classy but reticent nose hints at bitter cherry. Densely packed and seriously concentrated, showing superb stony lift to the flavors of black cherry, violet and licorice. Really wonderful 2013 energy and...

Vinous, 91 points: (ST89-91 points) Dark ruby-red. Very primary, ripe aromas of black raspberry, blueberry and chocolate show a touch of animal fur reduction. Sweet and chocolatey in the mouth but a bit chunky today. The wine's substantial...

Burghound, 93 points: (91-93) A discreet touch of wood sets off the more elegant aromas of red and dark currant, anise, violet and soft earth nuances. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the caressing yet quite serious and intense...

Vinous, 93 points: (ST90-93 points) Good dark red-ruby. More red berries to go with the aromas of black cherry, pepper and spices, plus a sexy hint of blood peach. Captivating, gentle, broad wine with dark berry and cherry flavors accented...
