(91-93 points) Here too there is a mentholated top note on the more deeply pitched aromas of plum, black raspberry and subtle tea and floral wisps. As is always the case, there is more size, weight and power to the...

(90-92 points) The 2019 Volnay Village comes from several parcels, 45% from Les Achats, 45% Les Aussy and 10% Les Petit Garnets, the latter due to be pulled up this year. It has an attractive bouquet with pure red cherry...

Very ripe, but also very fresh red-cherry nose. Bold and generous, as you expect from Pommard, but with gentle tannins on the medium-to full-bodied palate. Only at the finish do they show a hint of the dryness for which...

The wonderful red-cherry fruit with hints of redcurrant and blackcurrant pulls you into this very expressive wine. For all the ripeness, the really striking thing about this is the great vitality, the way it leaps and...

Highly Recommended. A smoky red, infused with notes of autumn woods and herbs, featuring a core of strawberry and wild cherry flavors. Silky in texture and balanced, ending with a long, tightly wound and minerally finish...

(93+ points) Dark red with ruby tones, with the color coming from iron and limestone in the soil, according to Rossignol. Sexy scents of red raspberry, spices and tobacco. Wonderfully vibrant and delineated, particularly...

(91-94 points) 30 year old vines from first class massale selection. Dominique tells me that there are very many small stones here despite it being theoretically a clay rich site. Glorious purple. Svelte luxury strawberry...

A pretty and restrained nose grudgingly displays notes of poached plum, black raspberry, earth and subtle spice nuances. The supple, round and easy-going middle weight flavors exhibit a touch of rusticity on the...

Intense aromas of black cherry, pomegranate and tamarind mark this juicy red. Smooth, with well-integrated tannins lending a dusty feel as the finish plays out. Already harmonious, this should develop well over the next...

Plenty of juicy, sour cherry and raspberry notes, matched to a vivid structure. Really elegant, offering ripe tannins but very lively acidity. Subtle length on the finish. Drink now through 2009. 970 cases made, 400 cases...

Bursting with aromas of plums, orange zest and petals, Coche's 2021 Auxey-Duresses is medium-bodied, supple and lively, with a suave, melting profile that will be hard to resist on release.

(91-93 points) Jadot's 2012 Beaune Theurons is quite a bit firmer and more structured than the Greves. Iron, red fruit, minerals, chalk and smoke are some of the many notes that open up in the glass. The 2012 is going to...

Macerated cherry and plum flavors are married to a dense structure here, with ample sweetness and a supple texture. The finish is long and echoes the sweet fruit detail and picks up spice notes. Best from 2022 through...

A completely different aromatic profile is present on the aromas of leather, the sauvage, humus and an array of red and dark currant. The succulent round and solidly concentrated flavors exude a subtle minerality, all...
