Premier Cru
2021 Samuel Billaud, Chablis Premier Cru, Les Fourneaux 12x75cl
"Côte de Pre-Girots. Pale lemon colour, the bouquet is not quite so fine as Vaillons but has class nonetheless. Fresh crisp white fruit with just a few mirabelles showing alongside. A softer finish... but still with some clean kimmeridgian touches to finish. Indeed, the finish as well as being long has the classical style of Chablis." 92-94pts, Jasper Morris MW, www.insideburgundy.com

2021 Jean-Jacques Girard, Beaune Premier Cru, Clos du Roi Rouge 6x75cl
"Girard’s Clos de Roi has been consistently impressive since it was first made in 2007, and this vintage is no exception. Situated at the northern end of a strip of premier cru vineyards to the... west of Beaune it has produced a wine of ripe and forward dark cherry fruit that is entwined with a gentle and judicious use of oak and fresh acidity. The tannins are silky and refined boding well for a graceful future. " (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Jean-Jacques Girard, Savigny-les-Beaune Premier Cru, Les Rouvrettes 6x75cl
"Beautifully fragrant with hints of cherry raspberry and blackcurrant driving this wine forward. It is superbly balanced with a precise acidity and refined tannins framing a very classy and elegant structure. It is already opening up but will undoubtedly continue to please for many years to come." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2020 Yves Boyer Martenot, Meursault Premier Cru, Charmes 12x75cl
From vines at the western edge of Meursault’s Premier cru vineyards, Vincent’s Charmes is aptly named. This pretty wine is already open and expressive with an enticing richness that complements its refined citrus and mineral backbone. A superb example of Chardonnay at its crafted best.

2021 Domaine Gerard Thomas, Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, Les Murgers des Dents de Chien 6x75cl
Take a look towards St Aubin from the top of the famed Grand Cru vineyards of Le Montrachet and Chevalier-Montrachet, and you encounter is Murgers des Dents de Chien, one of the four greatest... vineyards in the commune. This vintage is a real delight. Oozing with creamy richness, citrus fruit and great acidity, it has an underlying weight of mineral precision and a deliciously seductive texture. It is long and fine, and quite simply a must-have. (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2018 Sylvie Esmonin, Gevrey-Chambertin 6x75cl
"The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, matured in 40% new oak with 40% whole bunch, has an intense bouquet of black cherries, iodine and blueberry aromas that burst from the glass. The intense palate... is medium-bodied with supple tannins, blood-orange-infused red fruit and a touch of pain d’épices and black pepper toward the finish. Fine." 90-92, Neal Martin, www.vinous.com

2021 Laurent Cognard, Montagny Premier Cru, La RaRissime 6x75cl
"A wine of sublime concentration, impressive dry extract (which translates as great texture) and a lifting, nervy acidity peaking through the finish and carrying the whole as it lingers on. Amazingly intense, expressive and perfectly balanced - very special indeed." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Domaine Joseph Voillot, Pommard Premier Cru, Les Epenots 6x75cl
If the structure of Etienne's Volnay Caillerets is slightly reminiscent of Pommard, the poise and elegance of his Epenots gives a very definitive nod to Volnay. The power and tannic grip expected of... the Pommard terroir is here however - this will age for 20 years without any issues whatsoever. We have been very enthusiastic of the evolution of the Pommard style in the past decade or so, especially in the hands of winemakers with a light touch, like Etienne, and this is a great example of the transformation - it comes thoroughly recommended! (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Laurent Cognard, Montagny 1er Cru & Co 6x75cl
"One of our most popular white cuvées since its inclusion in our offer a couple of years ago, and it is very easy indeed to see why; the 2021 shows beautiful harmony, concentrated, rounded butttery... citrus fruit and expressive aromatics. Lauren't wines all have a lovely texture, and again it is perfectly exemplified here with very fine dry extract and lifted aromatics; a super white to rival the more hallowed names in the Côte de Beaune." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Domaine Albert Bichot (Long-Depaquit), Chablis Premier Cru, Les Lys 6x75cl
"Redolent of hawthorn and lime, with supreme structure and brisk acidity, once again Les Lys proves itself a great fit in our portfolio as an enticing source of delicately styled, perfumed 1er Cru Chablis. Quite exquisite." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2020 Sylvie Esmonin, Gevrey-Chambertin 6x75cl
Located in the old part of the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, at the foot of the legendary Clos Saint Jacques vineyard, since 1988 the scrupulous Sylvie cultivates 7 ha under her own name. Her deep... knowledge of the vines and meticulous vinification techniques result in wines of great maturity and intensity, capable of great ageing potential. As you'd expect, these wines are in very high demand and Mr.Wheeler are delighted to be offering a selection of Sylvie’s wines for the third vintage in a row. We urge you to snap up a case or two of these sensational wines, whilst you can.

2021 Domaine Rossignol-Trapet, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Petite Chapelle 6x75cl
"The four-hectare Petite Chapelle vineyard is one of the easternmost Premier Crus in Gevrey-Chambertin and lies just below the Chapelle-Chambertin grand cru itself. We loved this wine when we tasted... it at the Domaine in November. It has a very floral nose with hints of gentle and seductive oak, and wonderful sprightly acidity. The cherry and stone fruit palate has a spicy and powerful underbelly, and its saline minerality rounds things off to provide truly pleasurable experience." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Domaine Rossignol-Trapet, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Clos Prieur 6x75cl
"Delicate and refined, it provides the yin to the yang of its more robust neighbour, Petite Chapelle, giving us once again an open and aromatic style of Gevrey. There is a great weight of fruit with... plenty of tension and underlying power, but it is overlaid with a real elegance and subtly that sets it apart from its more muscular compatriots. Delightful."

2017 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Champonnet 6x75cl
With 30% new oak and 50% whole bunch fermentation, the domaine’s Gevrey-Chambertin 1er CruChamponnet offers intoxicating, powerful notes of cassis with red berry compote and spiced vanilla cream. ... On the palate the wine is classic Pinot Noir, with velvety purple berry fruit richness and silk-tinged intensity allied to fine minerality. The wine, complimented by fabulous underlying structure and great freshness is in outstanding form this year.
