Enticing candied citrus fruit and spice with an exquisite mineral undertone; super clean and tense with a sumptuous texture and a long, harmonious finish.
(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...
(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...
Literally grown in Jean-Claude Boisset's garden, with a painterly view of the Clos de Vougeot, this is always fun to serve in a blind tasting. It's toasty, sappy and reductive, with flinty, struck-match aromas and hints...
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...
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.
(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...
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
Sweet strawberries with fresh flowers and tangerines on the nose. Medium-bodied with round, firm tannins and a spicy, flavorful finish. Very typical for the appellation. Drinkable now, but even better in a couple of years.
(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...
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...
(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 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...
(92-95 points) The grapes come from all sectors of their vineyard, vinified with whole bunches and aged in 50% new wood. The cuvée will represent 10,000-12000 bottles. Rich dense purple, all about the fruit and not the...
(92-95 points) Fine dense purple. The nose is inky but not yet showing detail. Intense, largely blackcurrant notes on the palate, which may be a touch of reduction. Quite angular, the intensity is there but not the...
Supple and fleshy, evoking black cherry and cassis flavors, supported by notes of sandalwood, oak spice and tobacco. Tightens up on the finish, where dense yet ripe tannins prevail. Powerful and needs time. Best from 2023...
One of the jewels in the Drouhins' array of grands crus, this old-vine parcel covers 0.5ha. Intensely coloured, with 80% new wood for support, this is aromatic and textured, unfurling aromas and flavours of liquorice...
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...
(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...
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...
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...
(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...
Rich, supple and expressive, this red delivers cherry, plum and spice flavors, with accents of earth and mineral. Dense and well-structured, yet balanced. Long finish. Best from 2021 through 2035. 50 cases imported. — BS
(91-94 points) Rich dense purple, quite a plump fruit on the nose, a little bit of inkiness perhaps linked to the barrel. Clean, clear-cut, classy, and when the whole bunch kicks in the red fruit dances, this is elegant...
