Domaine Livera Philippe Chapelle Chambertin 2016
Burgundy wine Grand Cru
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

"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. There is excellent richness, volume and solid mid-palate concentration to the medium-bodied flavors that exude a fine bead of minerality on the youthfully austere and impressively persistent finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. Note that this required several hours to get rolling and if you’re going to sacrifice a bottle in the interest of "science", be sure to give it at least an hour of air first.

Pommard 1er Cru
Here the pretty nose is fresher still with its layered mix of red and dark raspberry scents that are cut with plenty of earth influence. The rich and caressing but attractively punchy middle weight flavors possess evident power on the dusty
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
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 Simon Bize
Savigny-Les-Beaune
This is the first wine to display more than a soupçon of wood though it’s not enough to dominate the notably ripe yet fresh mix of liqueur-like red and dark cherry, floral and warm earth scents
