Description of the Domaine Drouhin Joseph
Allen Meadows : 92 points
"This too is quite deeply pitched with its ripe aromas of cassis, plum liqueur, spice, floral and soft oak scents. There is very good verve to the utterly delicious and slightly finer medium weight flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the balanced and harmonious finish. This isn’t quite as complex as the Grèves though that may well change with time as the track record of this wine developing well is firmly established."

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
Domaine Niellon
Clos De La Maltroie
The racy, intense and notably finer middle weight flavors exude a subtle minerality on the beautifully textured finale that is both more persistent and more complex
Domaine Lamarche

Domaine Bart
Chambertin
Discreet but not invisible wood influence easily allows the overtly spicy and floral-inflected red currant and dark pinot fruit aromas to shine. The succulent and slightly denser larger-scaled flavors
