(90-93 points) Pretty and airy aromas include those of petrol, lemon rind, apple and pear. There is markedly better concentration to the vibrant and solidly powerful flavors that exude an evident bead of minerality on the...

An attractively spicy nose freely offers up distinctly cool aromas of red and dark cherry, violet and a touch of forest floor character. There is again excellent verve and very good volume to the rich, muscular and...

(92-95 points) This was the only wine in the range to display more than a trace of reduction and even here, the aromas are clearly ripe. There is more volume and power to the tautly muscular medium-bodied flavors that...

Cherry and blackberry flavors are front and center in this ripe, round red. Hints of earth and spices add detail, while the succulent texture persists on the fruit-filled finish. Drink now through 2035. - BS

In this wine, an initial flash of ripe, black cherry blows off to reveal a gentle note of vanilla. The palate comes in with unexpected freshness. A bright body showcases red rather than black cherry, supported by...

(91-93 points) Pale lemon and lime. A little tension to the nose, mixed white fruit, clean, with some depth, beginning to add a little flesh through the middle, and certainly persistent. This may be a lesser known 1er Cru...

(92-94 points) This is also aromatically quite fresh with an airy mix that derives mostly from the red side of the fruit spectrum while being laced with discreet spice, floral and earth wisps. The lilting and utterly...

Ripe, rich and spicy, this red is intensely flavored, featuring wild cherry and strawberry fruit, with anise, sandalwood and mineral notes. Sleek, yet almost chewy, with lingering spice accents. Best from 2018 through...

Recently replanted from red, so young vines. Mid yellow in colour, with a density to the nose which was missing in the Santenay. Succulent ripe citrus, some orange blossom, but not too lush. Very impressive for young...

Replanted from red, so young vines from 2019. Mid lemon yellow. The same succulent and attractive nose as Sur Lavelle but perhaps just a touch more personality, less citrus, a little verbena. The fruit is very evenly...

Ripe dark-cherry flavors run deep in this clean, violet-scented Beaune. There’s some earthiness to the tannins, with an underlying note of fresh mushrooms to complement the firm, juicy flavors of the fruit. The wine’s...

This is the first wine to display any appreciable reduction and in this case it's enough to push the underlying fruit to the background, so be sure give this some air. Otherwise, there is almost painful intensity to the...

(90-93 points) 75% wood and 25% in various types of neutral container. Pale lemon. A fine and classy nose with no wood in evidence, more of a mineral character, but no dominating reduction, just a whisper to add...

(90-92 points) The 2022 Aloxe-Corton Les Fournières 1er Cru has more Pinoté and delineation on the nose compared to the Les Vercots. The oak is more integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with powdery tannins and...

Deep savory and rooty nose plus a touch of candied oranges and coconut. Substantial, plush tannins on the medium-bodied palate that is wonderfully velvety. The power and concentration are underplayed until you reach the...
