Domaine de l’Arlot Nuits-Saint-Georges ‘1er Cru Clos de l’Arlot’ Monopole 2023

“The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos de l'Arlot ler Cru has a vibrant bouquet that one might mistake for containing some stems-slightly darker fruit, with a touch of seaweed The palate is medium-bodied with a saline entry, very well balanced and elegant in style, with a harmonious and persistent finish.

Domaine Faiveley Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru 'Les Cazetiers' 2022

Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Faiveley Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru ‘Les Cazetiers’ 2022

A more discreet if still easily perceptible dollop of wood can be found on the more deeply pitched aromas of poached plum, forest floor and a more subtle hint of the sauvage. The supersleek, intense and beautifully textured medium weight flavors exude evident minerality on the powerful, youthfully austere and beautifully balanced finale that displays excellent length. One to look for. Drink: 2034+Allen Meadows, Burghound 92-95 Points Sweet spot OutstandingThe 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin 1

Giovanni Sordo Barolo Riserva 'Rocche di Castiglione' 2001
The Super Stars!

Nebbiolo from Castiglione Falletto, Barolo

Giovanni Sordo Barolo Riserva ‘Rocche di Castiglione’ 2001

Lifting the level to Sordo's Riserva Range is always Fun! Winery Direct from an exceptional Barolo Year! Fabulous, both in itself and as a contrast to Villero. Where Villero is delicate and persistent, all finesse, Rocche is much more forceful with a similar range of characters. Everything is darker, deeper and more. The glory of this pre-eminent cru is the combo of style and power; how such waves and complexities stay in such long and vibrant shape. A great Barolo here.All aged releases hav

Benjamin Leroux Pommard 1er Cru 'Rugiens-Haut' 2020

Pinot Noir from Pommard, Côte du Beaune

Benjamin Leroux Pommard 1er Cru ‘Rugiens-Haut’ 2020

Notwithstanding the Clos des Epeneaux, Leroux has always said that if there was one 1er Cru that would tempt him back to Pommard it would be Les Rugiens. A new long-term contract with the same owner as the Volnay Caillerets brought Leroux back to his old stomping ground in 2017 and so, once again he is working with the same iron-rich red clay soils that he did, so famously, at Comte Armand..“A brooding and reticent nose features liqueur-like aromas of poached plum, cassis and cool eart

Pinot Noir from Chambolle-Musigny, Côte-de-Nuits

David Duband Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru ‘Les Sentiers’ 2020

A perfumed and strikingly pretty nose is at once wonderfully floral and spicy with its fresh essence of red pinot fruit. The fleshy and round yet decidedly powerful, intense and tautly muscular flavors exude a subtle minerality on the compact, youthfully austere and sneaky long finish. 2032"Allen Meadows, Burghound ♥ Outstanding

Paolo Scavino Barolo 'Bricco Ambrogio' MAGNUM 2021

Nebbiolo from La Morra, Barolo

Paolo Scavino Barolo ‘Bricco Ambrogio’ MAGNUM 2021

The 2021 Barolo Bricco Ambrogio is classy and polished to the core. This wine has come such a long way since its debut. Enrico Scavino really believed in this site when he purchased it a little more than 20 years ago. The 2021 is a fine testament to his vision. Lavender, sage, menthol and licorice lead into a core of dark-toned fruit in a Barolo that is deep yet also light on its feet. This is impeccably done, not to mention very tasty.

Cavallotto Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis ‘Vigna San Giuseppe’ 2012

Nebbiolo from Castiglione Falletto, Barolo

Cavallotto Barolo Riserva Bricco Boschis ‘Vigna San Giuseppe’ 2012

This is one of the benchmark traditional Barolo's from a classic years! Every time I’ve tried Cavallotto’s ‘Vigna San Guiseppe’ I’ve gone to a very happed place. The core of fruit in is always insane. Having tasted a dozen of the best Baroli alongside Vigna San Guiseppe over many vintages, it’s clear this is up at the top of the list. Cavallotto’s always beautifully balances power with elegance.

Domaine Hubert Lignier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er 'Chaffots' 2016

Pinot Noir from Morey-Saint-Denis, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Hubert Lignier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er ‘Chaffots’ 2016

A discreet but not invisible hint of volatile acidity adds lift to the well-layered nose of black cherry, violet, lavender and subtle earth and spice hints. The muscular and energetic broad-shouldered flavors offer excellent punch and depth on the driving and firmly structured finish. Assuming that the VA remains at its current level, it shouldn't be more than a background element.Allen Meadows, Burghound

THIS IS EPIC! A wine equation for you. Poderi Oddero + Vigna Rionda + 2013 = E for Epic!Vigna Rionda is responsible for some of the most singular and divine Barolo made. Intoxicating dark, earthy perfumes match seamlessly with wonderful flavours, and, divine textures making for heart-racing drinking!

Pinot Noir from Morey-Saint-Denis, Côte-de-Nuits

Domaine Hubert Lignier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er ‘Chaffots’ 2017

A cool, pure and relatively high-toned nose combines aromas of essence of red cherry, lilac, violet, lavender and plenty of earth character. There is better concentration to the nicely powerful and muscular flavors that culminate in a robust finale and while the finish still comes across as grippy, the tannins seem riper.Burghound

Nervi-Conterno Gattinara 'Molsino' 2019

Nebbiolo from Gattinara, Alto Piemonte

Nervi-Conterno Gattinara ‘Molsino’ 2019

The 2019 Gattinara Molsino is a dark, brooding wine. Smoke, incense, licorice and leather open in the glass, but only with great reluctance. A wine of tremendous persistence and presence, the Molsino is so impressive in 2019. It is also embryonic and in need of cellaring. The only question is how long. Time in the glass brings out the wine's natural resonance, offering a glimpse of what will come in time. Drink 2029-2049Antonio Galloni, Vinous 97 Points

The 2019 Gattinara Valferrana is a dark, potent wine. It deftly marries fruit intensity with elegance, with deep notes of lavender, spice, menthol and crushed rocks. Time in the glass is works wonders here. If anything, I may have underestimated this last year! Drink 2027-2049Antonio Galloni, Vinous 96+ Points
