Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
A pure, elegant and attractively airy, even perfumed, nose reflects notes of mostly red cherry, spice and floral wisps. The punchy and super-sleek medium weight flavors also possess a striking mouthfeel with a more subtle bead of minerality, all wrapped in a balanced and impressively long finale. This is excellent with the development potential to match. ♥ Sweet spot OutstandingAllen Meadows, Burghound 92-94 PointsThe Geverey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Aux Combottes' sits next to the Grand Cr
Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
More discreet wood influence more easily allows the elegant, and more floral, aromas of mostly dark pinot fruit to be enjoyed. The caressing but punchy medium weight flavors possess good mid-palate richness before terminating in a dusty, youthfully austere and well-balanced finale. This is lovely and very Combottes in character, which is to say refined but with focused power.Allen Meadows, Burghound 91-94 PointsThe Geverey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Aux Combottes' sits next to the Grand Cru Lat
Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits
Check out Burghound's review! Ponsot works a superb 0.6-hectare, old-vine parcel in this renowned vineyard with an average age of nearly 50 years. The site is planted at 12,000 vines per hectare. Ponsot’s vines are at the very top of the vineyard, in line with the top of Les Amoureuses and the bottom of LeMusigny. The outstanding quality of the wine reflects this remarkable terroir and also a remarkable, frost-affected year where the yields were tiny (12hl/ha!). The result is a blockbuster
Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
A reserved but exceptionally elegant and wonderfully pure nose combines notes of plum, violet, spice, earth and a whiff of smoke. The sleek, refined and intense middle weight flavors are less powerful than the Morey 1er but notable finer, all wrapped in a balanced and sneaky long finish. This is a wine that should be approachable young but has the stuffing to age effortlessly.Allen Meadows, Burghound
Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
Here too moderately generous wood surround the nose that is also relatively high-toned with its aromas of pomegranate, red cherry, various floral scents and soft spice nuances. The medium weight flavors possess a notably finer texture thanks to the relatively fine-grained tannins that also support the long and mildly austere finish that is on the compact side today. I expect this to add flesh and unwind as it ages and as is often the case, this is the best of Lignier's 1ers in 2017.Burghound
Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
"Here there is very good freshness to the cool and airy nose of essence of plum, earth, spice and a background application of wood. The lilting and lacy middle weight flavors possess a subtle underlying tension while the ever-so-slightly warm finish is shaped by very fine-grained tannins. This is an exercise in finesse as it is more refined than usual."Allen Meadows, Burghound
Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes opens in the glass with aromas of cassis, plums, rose petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, supple and charming, it's fleshy and enveloping, with a seductive, giving personality that belies its depth and concentration"William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes sheds a touch of youthful reduction to reveal aromas of cherries, wild berries, exotic spices, forest floor and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with lively acids and ripe, powdery tannins, it displays considerable promise.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 92-94 Points
Pinot Noir from Vosne-Romanée, Côte-de-Nuits
“The 2022 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru, matured in 40% new oak, is intense on the nose, opulent yet controlled with mainly red berry fruit, allspice and rose petal scents, just a hint of black olive emerging with time. Very well-defined. The medium-bodied palate comes armed with a voluptuous entry, almost viscous in texture, intense yet delineated with a gradual build to its sweet and detailed finish. This will require four to five years to open for business, but it is certainl
Pinot Noir from Morey-Saint-Denis, Côte-de-Nuits
“This comes from the section known as La Forge, plus a young vine planting from 2011, and “Ballonge 2” where the plant selection could be better – it will be top-grafted shortly. One third whole bunch in the Ballonge component makes about 15% in all. This is a glowing purple colour, without the black. A light reduction on the nose which later shows as toasty barrel. Very complete, sensual, with good unforced acidity, more red fruit than black. Still a certain masculinity. Surprising leng
Pinot Noir from Vosne-Romanée, Côte-de-Nuits
The 2020 Echézeaux En Orveaux Grand Cru bursts with aromas of sweet red berries, rose petals, peonies, orange rind, plums and cinnamon. Medium to full-bodied, broad and enveloping, with powdery tannins, lively acids and a long, precise finish, this, too, is very promising.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 92-94 BH 91-94
Pinot Noir from Vosne-Romanée, Côte-de-Nuits
Once again the nose is wonderfully fresh and even spicier with its aromas of poached plum and liqueur-like dark pinot fruit that is also tinged with exotic tea wisps. There is noticeably better density to the caressing and seductively textured yet decided powerful flavors that brim with dry extract before concluding in a moderately austere and hugely long finale. This too is quite compact and very much built to repay extended keeping. ♥ Sweet spotAllen Meadows, Burghound 92-94 Points
