Description of the Domaine Leflaive
Robert Parker : 89-91 points
"The 2013 Meursault 1er Cru Sous le Dos D’Ane was affected by flowering (though not as poor as in Puligny) plus hail and a low juice-to-skin ratio. It has a lifted bouquet with fresh citrus lemon, white peach and minerals. The palate is fresh and minerally on the entry, actually not too stylistically distant from a Puligny, with a linear, stony, correct finish with a subtle spicy aftertaste." (2014)
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 Sylvie Esmonin
Gevrey
Domaine Gouges Henri
Les Pruliers
Domaine Anne Gros
Chambolle Musigny
Domaine Bertheau
Chambolle 1er Cru
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 Joseph Drouhin
Clos Des Mouches
The 2018 Beaune Clos des Mouches is totally beautiful. It shows gorgeous inner perfume and a weightless, gracious personality
Domaine Gouges Henri
Nuits-Saint-Georges
Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
Gevrey
Domaine Etienne Sauzet
Puligny-Montrachet
There is excellent cut, minerality and a sophisticated texture to the driving middle weight flavors that tighten up immediately on the refined
Domaine Niellon
Chassagne Blanc
Domaine Bertheau
Les Amoureuses
The beautifully layered nose offers another small step up in elegance and a large step up in aromatic complexity and spiciness to the essence of red pinot fruit and intense floral influence
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
