Red Wine from Cote De Nuits

Burghound, 93 points: A moderate dollop of new wood frames very ripe yet airy and elegant black raspberry and cherry aromas that are exceptionally fresh and dissolve into rich suave and very pure full-bodied flavors that are wonderfully...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, 94 points: (ST92-94 points) (just three barrels; includes some Clos de Beze) Deep red. Superripe aromas of cherry, rose petal and caramel. Silky-sweet and a bit high-toned, with a sappy spice character to the superripe, intense red...

Burghound, 92 points: A relatively high-toned nose that is pretty but entirely serious offers up notes of red cherry and raspberry, warm earth and a smoked game note that merges seamlessly into detailed, powerful and palate staining medium...

Burghound, 93 points: (BH91-93 points) This is the first wine to display more than discreet wood toast but here it's more than just noticeable if not enough to drown out the naturally spicy black fruit aromas and rich, full and sweet flavors...

Burghound, 94 points: This too is quite reduced though the big and solidly structured flavors are powerful and robust with superb length if not necessarily much elegance. Still, this is an impressive effort because of the mid-palate...

Wine Spectator, 92 points: Rich and heady, like macerated cherry, with mineral and spice aromas and flavors. There's a core of fruit and firm tannins. An elegant, graceful style overall. Best from 2012 through 2024. –BS

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Mint concentrated red and black fruits smoked meat and black pepper pungently scent the De Vogue 2006 Bonnes Mares. These migrate with almost implosive intensity to a palate lushly textured though finely tannic and almost...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, 93 points: (60-year-old vines) Bright red-ruby. Soil-inflected aromas of raspberry smoke and rocks with a musky minerality coming from the calcaire Deep tactile and smoky with an explosive raspberry sweetness impressive volume and...

Burghound, 94 points: Moderate wood spice frames mostly red berry fruit aromas that display intense earth and underbrush notes that continue onto the big broad-shouldered and amply concentrated flavors blessed with plenty of dry extract that...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, 93 points: Full red-ruby. Sexy aromas of blackberry, blueberry, licorice, minerals and violet. Wonderfully precise and vibrant, with terrific cut to its intense flavors of dark berries and violet. But this infant is still youthfully...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: This rich red is packed with black cherry, kirsch, cinnamon and tobacco flavors that permeate the fleshy profile. The firm structure takes over on the finish. Fine balance and length. Best from 2011 through 2020. 10 cases...
