Red Wine from Cote De Beaune

Vinous, 92 points: (92+ points) (bottled the week before my visit): Dark, bright red. Medicinal black cherry on the reticent nose. Concentrated and very primary, conveying a strong impression of energy to the flavors of black cherry...

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 95 points: (92-95 points) Old vines. Rich lively purple. The sturdiest nose of the three Beaune 1ers crus, the most backward. The fruit is formidably structured on the palate, dark fruit to finish, even some blackberry but this has...

Vinous, 90 points: (AG88-90 points) The 2010 Pommard is a gorgeous village-level wine laced with silky red fruit, crushed flowers, spices and mint. The higher-altitude location of the plots used for the Pommard gives the wine an amount of...
