Red Wine from Cote De Beaune

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...

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...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: (92-94 points) The 2016 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru was the more "fermé" of the three Cortons that I tried from the domaine, though gradually subtle floral/white flower aromas emerge. The palate is very well balanced and...

Wine Spectator, 91 points: Bright and succulent, with strawberry and cherry flavors in lockstep with the delicate structure and lacy framework. Balanced and long, presenting a chalky, minerally finish. Best from 2018 through 2028. 520 cases made. –BS

Vinous, 93 points: (91-93 points) The 2012 Pommard La Chanière is above all else a wine of tension and pure minerality. Slate, crushed rocks, chalk and bright red berries are all layered into the vibrant finish. Readers who like driven...

jamessuckling.com, 99 points: Love the depth of fruit and intensity of this wine. It has dark fruit and floral undertones, as well as meat, which is very captivating. Full body, purity of fruit and nice, powerful tannins. Chewy and powerful. Focused...

Vinous, 91 points: 91+ Healthy dark red. Very primary nose hints at black cherry, menthol and bitter chocolate lifted by a floral topnote. Then sappy and saline on the palate, showing very good chewy concentration and medicinal reserve...

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...

Burghound, 93 points: (91-93) This is presently quite firmly reduced and unreadable. On the plus side there is more volume, punch and power to the sleekly muscular flavors that also possess a wonderfully refined mouth feel while delivering...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: (92-94) The 2016 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru has more richness and intensity than the Corton-Bressandes at this early stage, with layers of black cherry and raspberry coulis, brown spices and sous-bois surfacing with...
