Pinot Noir from France

Decanter, 93 points: If you want to taste a textbook Gevrey-Chambertin, this is a very representative blend combining fruit from over 30 different parcels across the appellation. With an average vine age of 45 years, it's a sweet, glossy...

Wine Spectator, 95 points: A mix of cherry, black currant, iron, cinnamon and cardamom flavors highlight this dense red, with plenty of fruit to balance the assertive tannins. Just a bit compact on the finish today, yet shows fine promise. Best...

Wine Spectator, 92 points: Ripe, with an earthy cast to the black cherry, black currant and sweet spice flavors. Rich and pliable in texture, this is harmonious, building to a lingering, mouthwatering finish. Best from 2022 through 2036. 500 cases...

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 93 points: Dense bright colour, medium concentration, class and elegance to the nose. This is fine, precise, balanced, not blockbuster but with concentrated elegance.

Wine Enthusiast, 96 points: Reductive flintiness, smoke and red currant shine on the nose of this wine. The tart finesse of the red currant carries onto the slender, taut palate where freshness and elegance reign. Purity and intensity radiate from a...

View From The Cellar, 94 points: Narbantons, with its northeasterly exposition, was probably one of the more favored vineyards in the village in 2018, and the Camus-Bruchon version is stellar. The great nose wafts from the glass in a classic blend of...

View From The Cellar, 93 points: The 2018 Camus-Bruchon Gravains is also a lovely wine in the making, with its nose quite expressive at the time of my visit, but the palate still a bit reserved and hunkered down. The bouquet delivers plenty of refinement...

Wine & Spirits, 91 points: This clean, ripe Burgundy captures the cool scents of the forest above the Cote d’Or. Frederic Magnien blends it from his parcels in the Cote de Nuits, the vines averaging 50 years of age. He includes 20 percent of the...

Wine & Spirits, 93 points: Philippe Drouhin dedicates .62 acres of vines to this village Chambolle, parcels he has farmed organically since 1990. And it may well be his farming that sets this wine apart, or his sister Véronique’s gentle winemaking...

Wine Spectator, 90 points: 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

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Well-defined aromas and flavors of strawberry, cherry, rose and stone are the hallmarks of this expressive red. It firms up nicely, yet remains poised and sophisticated, with fruit, tobacco and iron accents lingering on...

View From The Cellar, 91 points: 91+ The inherent elegance of the 2014 vintage is very much in evidence in the domaine’s old vine bottling from Gevrey, as the wine offers up a lovely constellation of black cherries, sweet dark berries, grilled meats...

Wine Spectator, 90 points: Luscious cherry, blackberry and toasty spice flavors highlight this juicy red, which is immediately appealing, and though not that complex or long, makes you want another sip. Fine balance. Drink now. 200 cases imported. — BS

Wine Spectator, 95 points: Bright cherry and berry fruit introduces this elegant red, along with floral, mineral and a hint of earth notes. It's sleek and tensile, with superb balance and poise. The cherry and strawberry theme continues through the...

Wine Spectator, 90 points: This is pretty, packing cherry, raspberry and spice flavors on a lively frame. Not that intense, yet finishes with grace and harmony. Drink now through 2024. 700 cases made, 220 cases imported. — BS

View From The Cellar, 94 points: (91-94 points) The 2013 Corton “Bressandes” from Domaine Chandon de Briailles had also finished up its malo in mid-summer and was showing pretty well at the time of my visit. The deep, pure and black fruity bouquet offers...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A rich, creamy-textured red with ripe-strawberry, chocolate, stone and hazelnut aromas and flavors. It’s full and layered with attractive fruit and lightly chewy yet polished tannins. Flavorful finish. Subtle, yet...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Lush and harmonious, setting the stage for vivid blackberry and black cherry flavors. Verges on tangy, courtesy of lively acidity, with graphite and spice elements lingering on the extended aftertaste. Best from 2022...

Decanter, 96 points: The Ponsots' 3.5ha holdings here are divided between the Monts Luisants and Clos de la Roche grand cru climats, producing a fine, elegant, floral cuvée with no new oak, plenty of precision and freshness and a sweet core...

View From The Cellar, 94 points: (92-94 points) The 2013 Lavaux St. Jacques from Domaine Harmand-Geoffroy was raised in forty percent new wood in this vintage. It was still a bit cranky on the palate from the assemblage at the time of my visit, but the...

View From The Cellar, 92 points: 92+ The 2017 Gravains from Monsieur Camus was raised in fifty percent new oak this year, which is higher than normal for this bottling, but all of the new wood was the aforementioned five hundred liter barrels, so the...

View From The Cellar, 93 points: The Domaine Harmand-Geoffroy Perrière is one of the finest examples of this vineyard to be found in the village, and I really like the profile of the wine in 2014. The very refined bouquet offers up a complex blend of...

Decanter, 98 points: Absolutely bursting with blue and red fruits, the concentration is deceptive here, as it starts out juicy and full of air, but after a few minutes in the glass you start to feel the weight and the texture, and this turns...
