(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...

(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...

(92-94 points) When Mortet launched his own label, this cuvée took the back seat when compared with the Charmes-Chambertin; but his work in the vineyards is paying off, as evidenced by the 2022 Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand...

(90-93 points) A slightly more generous dash of wood influence can be found on the liqueur-like aromas of plum, cherry, spice and newly turned earth. There is fine delineation to the large-scaled and equally muscular...

Located in Les Rugiens-Bas, this is a very fine example of Pommard which carries the weight and power expected of the AC but combines this with purity and a high degree of elegance. Dark and brooding in the glass, this is...

(90-92 points) Offering up aromas of pear, orange zest and freshly baked bread, the 2023 Meursault 1er Cru Santenots is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a succulent, charming profile. More immediate than its...

(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...
