Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
Bougros sits on a very steep slope, with a gradient of more than 30%, facing due south at the foot of the hill. The shallow soil, a mixture of clay and gravel, prevents excessive yields resulting in complex, robust wines.Note: from a 2.2 ha parcel at the bottom section of the vineyard; even so, the vineyard is so steep here that it must be worked entirely by hand as tractors would be dangerous to use.In a sense, the 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros Côte Bouguerots offers a resumé of
Chardonnay from Côte des Blancs, Champagne
There's a purity & intensity about this wine that combined with the juicy acid is so so satisfying! The Côte des Blancs is home to all the great Chardonnay vineyards in Champagne. The Grand Cru vineyards are the best of these. When I worked at Legras et Haas, the Grand Cru Chardonnay was exceptional. I was blown away just tasting the juice. The quality of this wine reminds me of that oh so delicious juice!Péters' flagship Champagne is a blend of 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay spanning more than
Pinot Noir from Pommard, Côte du Beaune
This is also really quite aromatically pretty with its blend of red currant, cherry and slightly more prominent earth influence. On the palate there is again fine volume to the attractively textured flavors that display solid depth and length on the balanced finale where a touch of bitter chocolate character slowly emerges.Allen Meadows, Burghound 88 PointsNote: from a blend of La Rue au Port, Les Combes and Petits Noizons where the latter comprises about 75% of the blend
Pinot Noir from Beaune, Côte du Beaune
A ripe yet agreeably fresh nose freely reveals its aromas of mostly red berries and discreet spice elements. The sleek, delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors conclude in a dusty bitter pit fruit-inflected finish that exhibits solid length if only average depth. As such, at least a few years of keeping are recommended.Allen Meadows, Burghound 89 PointsNote: from a 1.3 ha holding
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
This is the largest and most famous Grand Cru; its fame based on its history as one of Chablis’ first vineyards. The appellation enjoys a southerly aspect with very white, dense and deep clay soil, resting on a limestone bed 80 cm below the ground, which brings to the wine those spicy notes so typical of this terroir.Note: from 4 separate parcels totaling 4.11 ha, 3 of which are all at the top of the slope. If Kimmeridgian could be distilled, it would likely smell exactly like the nos

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
The Valmur vineyard covers around 12-hectares in total, forming a small valley in the heart of the Grand Cru slope. It’s quite literally wedged between Vaudésir and Grenouilles on its left and Les Clos on its right. With an extreme mesoclimate, Valmur gets very cold in winter and hotter than the regional average in summer. It’s a site that lends itself to authoritative and intense wines of serious depth and power. The Domaine farms a 0.6-hectare parcel that was planted in 1978. Situated nex
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
The 2023 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur is lovely, unfurling in the glass with notes of green orchard fruit, citrus zest, wet stones and oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy, it's deep and saline, with as usual a quintessentially Chablisien profile.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 94 PointsHere the wood treatment is again quite subtle though not imperceptible on the cool aromas of sea breeze, citrus, wet stone and quinine. As one would expect, there is notably more size, w
Chardonnay from Saint-Aubin, Côte du Beaune
Lamy has 2.4-hectares in the 1er Cru Les Frionnes, with vines planted in 1935, 1960 and 1985. It’s a southeast-facing site with old, decomposed limestone/clay soils and a plethora of small rocks in the topsoil. The vines are adjacent to the Derrière chez Edouard, but this is a slightly warmer site and is therefore picked earlier. Frionnes gives both pulpy fruit and vibrant, saline freshness along with a compact, rocky close.“Habitually one of the domaine's more mineral wines, the
Chardonnay from Saint-Aubin, Côte du Beaune
Lamy’s tiny Clos du Meix parcel is just 0.7 hectares, situated at the western fringe of the village. Planted between 1985 and 1995, the sheltered location (just below Les Castets on a south-facing slope), its heavier clays, and the fact that it is fully enclosed by a wall (and therefore protected from the cold, northern winds), always gives this wine excellent texture to go with its intense minerality. Contributing to this mineral character is the bony soil in this vineyard, which has just
Pinot Noir from Nuits-Saint-Georges, Côte-de-Nuits
“Dense dark purple. Powerful plums, a graphite note as well, significant density, the fruit swells right across the palate, a huge volume but the ripeness is perfectly judged, with an excellent length. This is very impressive. Reveling in the warmer vintage because the tannins are riper.” Jasper Morris
Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy
With the 2023 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos Hommage à Louis, the Droins have regained the right to designate Les Clos on the label from the INAO, but they're also continuing with the Hommage à Louis moniker. Whatever its name, the wine is lovely, opening in the glass with notes of green apple, peach and lemon mingled with iodine and toasted nuts, followed by a full-bodied, layered and concentrated palate that's deep, dense and muscular.William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 95 PointsSmoke
