"A more elegant and more floral-suffused nose reflects notes of both earth and dark berries with a hint of the sauvage lurking in the background. There is similarly good volume and mid-palate density to the delicious, round and relatively supple medium weight flavors that contrast markedly with the very firm, powerful and ever-so-slightly rustic finale. This is really very good and the rusticity may well age out."

Clos Des Papes
Châteauneuf Du Pape
Lilting and perfumy, with a grace that belies the vintage, this offers layer upon layer of raspberry, boysenberry, floral, mocha flavors

A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful

Puligny 1er Cru
Les Tremblots is a lieu-dit in the south of Puligny-Montrachet, on the border with Chassagne. Its name probably comes from the aspen trees (trembles) that once grew there
Domaine Méo-Camuzet
Corton Charlemagne
The 2008 sports a lovely black cherry, iodine and cherry pitnose, comes onto the palate generously juicy with under tones of game
Pierre Vincent Girardin
Chassagne Clos St J
2024 was a cool vintage with small volumes in Burgundy, giving lighter, more easy-drinking reds. At just 12.5%, this red Chassagne should show bright red and black fruit, a palate between finesse and concentration

Bourgogne
The 2022 is pale in colour, with a discreet nose of red and black berries, purple flowers and forest floor, plus a touch of cedar. The palate is broad and silky, more powerful than expected, with the ripe fruit of a sunny vintage

Chambolle Musigny
Hubert Lamy
D Chez Edouard
The 2022 shows a gently reductive nose of pear, white flowers, hazelnut and wet stones, with a hint of orange blossom
Domaine Tortochot
Chambertin
An impressively ripe nose that does not display any notes of surmaturité features mostly wild dark berry fruit aromas and ample earth notes
