Description of the Domaine Comtes Lafon
Allen Meadows : 92-94 points
"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, strikingly complex and impressively persistent finish. At the risk of repeating myself, this is not going to wow you with its concentration but it will with its depth and overall sense of harmony and balance."
Clos Des Lambrays
Morey Saint Denis
The colour is ruby with purple tints. The nose combines black cherry and fresh raspberry, peony and violet, with a touch of orange zest, undergrowth and limestone
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
Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
Clos St Jacques
Domaine Gouges Henri
Les Pruliers
Domaine Anne Gros
Chambolle Musigny
Anne Boisson
Meursault
The nose combines green orchard fruit, citrus zest, mint and pastry cream, framed by elegant oak. The palate is concentrated and chalky, driven by lively acidity, with great length
Pierre Vincent Girardin
Vosne-Romanée
The 2023 is an elegant, fragrant Vosne-Romanée, all finesse, with red fruit and a touch of sweet spice
Domaine Comte De Vogüe
Chambolle-Musigny
Black with a purple rim, the wine shows black cherry, ripe raspberry, blackcurrant and a floral touch on the nose. The medium-bodied palate is sleek and exceptionally concentrated, with saline tension and a hint of orange zest
Domaine Bertheau
Bonnes Mares
Domaine Pillot F&l
Beaune 1er Cru
The 2023 has a deep garnet colour and a nose of blackcurrant, blackberry and cherry, with toasty, lightly spicy notes. The palate is full, with silky tannins and good freshness, and a long finish
Maxime Cottenceau
Montagny 1er Cru
The 2022 shows a nose of yellow flowers, quince compote, lemon zest and crushed stone, with a touch of cedar. The palate is rich and juicy, with astonishing density, citrus and white fruit
