Description of the Domaine Comtes Lafon
Robert Parker : 93-95 points
"The 2010 Volnay Champans bursts from the glass with freshly cut flowers, mint, spices, licorice and sweet red berries. Floral notes are woven throughout this impeccably layered, intense wine. I tasted the Champans from a number of barrels, all of which were exceptional, both for their immediate quality and more importantly for the future. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030." (2011)

A pungent nose of sulfur, wood and reduction completely dominates the fruit today. Otherwise the succulent, round and plump easy-going flavors exude a refreshing salinity on the balanced finale

More complex yet more reserved on the nose with the hallmark sexy, spicy and pure black fruit aromas that are followed by deeply pitched
Domaine Bart
Chambertin
An ultra-spicy and markedly floral nose combines notes of red cherry, wild currant and earth with those of soft game and underbrush nuances. The polished, sophisticated and intense middle weight
