Domaine Esmonin Sylvie Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 2021
Burgundy wine Clos Saint Jacques
Ripe and pretty but somber as the pungently and deeply pitched earthy dark berry fruit aromas exhibit nuances of game and underbrush that are picked up on the textured, dense and mouth coating medium full flavors that offer excellent depth and length. This is not an especially elegant wine but it's a classic old school Gevrey
Allen Meadows : 93 points

Allen Meadows : 93 points
"A mildly toasty nose reflects mostly notes of exceptionally ripe liqueur-like spiced plum, cassis, warm earth and a suggestion of sauvage character. The energetic, powerful and tautly muscular flavors possess an abundance of minerality that imparts an agreeable verve to the ever-so-austere finish that offers excellent depth and persistence. This harmonious effort could even be enjoyed young though it should also have no difficulty rewarding extended keeping."
Domaine J-L Chave
Saint-Joseph
Only 2 bottles/ pers. Saturated red. Powerful aromas of black raspberry, candied cherry, licorice and smoky minerals. Pretty sexy wine

The 2022 shows a gently reductive nose of pear, white flowers, hazelnut and wet stones, with a hint of orange blossom

Macon Vergisson
The colour is straw yellow. The nose combines yellow apple, apricot and white flowers, with a touch of spice. The palate is young, juicy and fresh
Anne Boisson
Meursault
The nose combines lemon, lime, peach and apricot, with a floral and mineral touch. The palate is full and creamy, driven by lively acidity and vibrant fruit. The finish is clean and long, with citrus and minerality
Domaine Livera Philippe
Chapelle Chambertin
This is quite deeply colored in the context of what is typical for the 2016 vintage. Ripe and deeply pitched aromas speak of plum liqueur, various dark berries and plenty of earth, sauvage and forest floor elements
Domaine Pillot F&l
Beaune 1er Cru
From a cool, challenging vintage, the 2024 shows an expressive nose of red and dark fruit, cherry and raspberry, with earthy, forest-floor notes
