Ripe, with an earthy cast to the black cherry, black currant and sweet spice flavors. Rich and pliable in texture, this is harmonious, building to a lingering, mouthwatering finish. Best from 2022 through 2036. 500 cases...
The bright cherry core of this red is framed by smoke, vanilla and saline mineral notes. Vibrant and balanced, backed by dense tannins. The finish evokes dark cherry, plum and spice elements, extended by the lively...
(91-94 points) In barrel, glowing purple of medium depth. There is a very attractive weight of fruit here, in a slightly fuller, riper style, some dark notes impinging on the lively red fruit. Multi-layered and with a...
(93-97 points) Excellent glowing mid purple, the nose is very ungiving at the moment. The palate though is exactly what you would expect. A touch of blueberry, the slightly raw silk or serge texture, plenty of muscle...
(92-95) This too is quite firmly reduced and unreadable today. Otherwise there is a bit more size and weight to the broad-shouldered flavors that possess even better mid-palate density before terminating in a markedly...
Lush and smoky, featuring black cherry, plum and earth flavors enmeshed with the grainy texture. Spice and wild herb accents emerge as this winds down on the dusty finish. Best from 2022 through 2035. 648 cases made, 25...
A broad-shouldered, chunky red, this displays black cherry, iron and earth flavors. A bit rustic, with ample fruit and a saturated, black cherry aftertaste. Drink now through 2025. 1,250 cases made, 400 cases imported. — BS
(VN 92-94 points) The 2017 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is completely de-stemmed and matures in 80% new oak. It has an expressive and aromatic bouquet with pretty blueberry, raspberry and iodine aromas that burst from the...
This is one of Romain Taupenot's oldest vineyards, planted in 1948. Mazoyères seems to have fared better in the hot conditions of 2017 than neighbouring Charmes-Chambertin, as this wine has more acidity and depth than its...
(VN 90-92 points) The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has the prettiest bouquet among Romain Taupenot’s Village Crus, offering precocious red cherry, crushed strawberry and orange pith aromas. The detailed palate is...
Arnaud Mortet uses two parcels - one old, the other planted with Pinot Fin clones in 1992 - for this forward, juicy, crowd-pleasing Marsannay that's a great value introduction to his winemaking talents. Lightly wooded...
Cherry, currant and wild scrub aromas and flavors mark this sinewy red. Firms up on the finish as much from the vivid acidity as the well-integrated tannins. Best from 2022 through 2033.
(90-92 points) Firm reduction renders the nose unreadable at present. More appealing are the sleek, intense and tautly muscular medium weight flavors that possess good detail and plenty of punch on the focused, powerful...
A bright, floral-edged red, boasting black currant, blueberry and subtle licorice flavors. Firm and well-integrated, this is balanced overall, with chalky tannins and fine length. Best from 2021 through 2033. 100 cases...
The Mortets' five parcels here cover 1.2ha in all, and run from the top of the Combe de Lavaux to the bottom, close to the Clos St-Jacques. Fermented without whole bunches, this is another superb red from Arnaud Mortet...
(94-97 points) 80% new wood 25% whole bunch vinification. Dark imperial purple, there is a suavity about the nose which evokes this vineyard very well indeed. Marvellous depth of fruit on the palate, fine grained wood...
Tasted from bottle, the 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Village is a pretty and immensely charming wine bursting with aromas of cherries, raspberries, bergamot and rose petals, with little hint of the savory complexity to come...
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru has an open nose of brambly red fruit, sous-bois and wilted rose petals, very pure and charming, and not dissimilar in style to François Bertheau's Chambolle 1er Cru. The palate is very...
Seemingly light and approachable at first, this holds its brightness while developing richness and savory depths as it opens with air. There are some blackberry-seed and coffee edges of bitterness to contrast the soft...
(VN 91-93 points) The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Au Closeau 1er Cru matures with 60% whole bunches and 60% new oak. It is not a monopole but Drouhin-Laroze is the only domaine to release a single bottling from this vineyard...
(91-94) Generous wood all but dominates the red berry aromas and is enough to blur the nuance. There is better mid-palate density to the broad-shouldered and powerful flavors that possess excellent depth and persistence...
A slightly more complex nose features notes of both red and black cherry, raspberry, pomegranate and an appealing touch of spice. Like the straight Fixin, the medium weight flavors are not especially dense but there is...
(91-94 points) Once again, there is a subtle though not invisible application of wood that still easily allows the airy, cool and restrained aromas of various red berries, and in particular cherry, floral and a mildly...
A very stylish wine that delivers very well from the 2017 vintage. There’s a very brambly and juicy array of fine, spicy cherries with such appealing, sappy complexity already. So much energy in this wine. The palate...
(91-93 points) This used to be part of the 1er cru blend, separated out in 2015 but not ‘16. Light to medium purple, a slight toasty reduction. Ripe cherry and strawberry notes, the reduction continues, good wine again...
