Red Wine from Cote De Nuits

Burghound, 93 points: (BH90-93 points) This is also elegant, pure and broadly aromatic with hints of earth, underbrush and a touch of the sauvage adding nuance to the red currant and violet notes that introduce rich and rather serious...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: The Raphet 2008 Chambertin Clos de Beze smells alluringly of ripe dark cherry, licorice, ginger, blond tobacco, and hyacinth. Supple and tender, loaded with lightly-cooked cherry yet preserving a vintage-typical fruit...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 99 points: (97-99) The 2016 Clos de Tart Grand Cru was assessed from a blend of all the component parts (except the young vines) that I previously tasted separately, as I have done over the last decade. The final blend will be 80%...

Wine Spectator, 92 points: Pure, boasting kirsch, raspberry, floral and mineral flavors, all etched into a lean frame. A solid structure provides support, but overall this is elegant and racy. Best from 2019 through 2029. 150 cases imported. –BS

Burghound, 91 points: There is enough wood to notice surrounding the earthy and brooding dark berry fruit and game suffused aromas. As one might reasonably expect there is markedly better richness and mid-palate concentration to the...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: (WA 94-96 points) From barrel, the 2012 Clos de Vougeot Cuvee Vieilles Vignes has one of my favourite bouquets with wonderful vibrancy, mineralite and tension. The palate has a beguiling sense of symmetry and tension...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: (90-92 points) The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Au Closeau has a very attractive ‘bonbons’ bouquet – like walking into a sweet shop – very pure and fragrant. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe tannins. There...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: Copious spices, cherries, and blackberries can be discerned in the aromatics and flavors of the 1999 Clos Vougeot Reserve. Ample, palate-coating, and medium-bodied, it reveals a long, supple finish that is pure and...

Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 95 points: A classic and typical Perrot-Minot wine, the 2011 Charmes-Chambertin is built on a serious core of huge, intense fruit. Dark blue/black fruit, sweet tobacco, menthol, licorice and new leather notes abound in a rich...

View From The Cellar, 94 points: The 2013 finished up its malo quite late as well and still had a bit of CO2 on the backend, but this is clearly a star of the vintage, as it wafts from the glass in a superb blend of cherries, red plums, raw cocoa, a...

View From The Cellar, 95 points: 95+ The 2013 Chambertin from the Rossignol brothers is another absolutely stellar young grand cru in the making, offering up a pure and youthful aromatic constellation of cassis, dark berries, grilled meat, cocoa, a...

Burghound, 92 points: (BH89-92 points) This too evidences background notes of wood spice on the slightly riper red berry fruit nose that displays plenty of earth and underbrush on the supple, intense and nicely voluminous flavors that possess...

Burghound, 92 points: A pure and unusually high-toned nose of cool and ripe red pinot fruit that is liberally laced with earth and humus scents. There is good volume to the supple and very round flavors that display good verve and excellent...
