Wine from Cote De Beaune

Wine Spectator, 91 points: A plump version, boasting melon, peach, cinnamon and toasted spice flavors. Balanced by lively acidity, with the spice and peach elements echoing on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2023. 200 cases imported. — BS

Decanter, 93 points: Grégory Patriat increasingly uses 500-litre oak barrels to age his white wines so that the wood is less dominant. This 'baby Montrachet' , as he puts it, from this celebrated premier cru site has a winning combination of...

jebdunnuck.com, 91 points: Coming from 60-year-old vines and brought up in 15% new oak, the 2017 Meursault Les Vieilles Vignes offers a solid bouquet of stone fruits and buttered citrus as well as green almonds and white flowers. Nicely textured...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: Rich and luscious while also structured, this wine is packed with ripe fruit and spice from wood aging. It comes from a walled vineyard, part of an estate managed by Louis Jadot. This wine has density along with a strong...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Initial aromas of earth and garlic blow off on the palate, but there are black cherry, black currant, violet and sandalwood notes that build to a long finish. Ripe and well-oaked, yet balanced and expressive. This red is...

Burghound, 92 points: Smoke and petrol-tinged aromas offer up notes of white peach, lemon zest and a hint of apricot. There is once again excellent volume to the intense and vibrant medium weight plus flavors that possess a caressing yet...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: Tasted blind at the annual “Burgfest” tasting in Bouilland. The 2013 Puligny Montrachet 1Er Cru les Combettes has a very detailed and precise bouquet with citrus fruit, granite and apple blossom aromas that gently unfold...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A cooler climat facing south along the combe above the village. This has an array of very attractive, ripe red cherries, plums and blackberries. Plenty of spices and an earthy edge, too. The palate has a smooth and supple...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: (90-92 points) The 2014 Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru comes from two blended parcels and sees around 20% new oak. It has more density than the village cru on the nose: blackberry and light stony scents, perhaps just a touch of...
