“From a tiny parcel of old vines in Monts Luisants, the 2019 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru opens in the glass with aromas of sweet berries, raw cocoa, cassis, orange rind, spices and petals. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, it’s serious and tightly wound, with lively acids and considerable reserves of fine, chalky tannins. Long and mineral, this will be well worth seeking out.” 93-95 pts., William Kelley, robertparker.com

The miniature holding of two ouvrées has provided just one 350 litre barrel, new wood, which was bottled by hand just a few days before I tasted. A very pleasing purple with huge density in the centre. The barrel is making little if any impact. It is ripe though, hedonistic strawberries with quite a punch to finish. Superb length though, and very good tensile strength, with a range of deep red to blue fruits.

2020 Domaine Henri Magnien, Gevrey-Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes 6x75cl
Aromatic, floral with notes of spearmint lifting the core of black cherry liqueur and winter spice, this boasts a wonderfully seductive texture and fruit-coated structure. 15% whole bunch really... opens up the nose. On the palate, very precise and harmonious already, long on the finish, this is an approachable Villages bottling, yet it will age beautifully for the best part of the 15 years to come.

2019 Aurelien Verdet, Morey-Saint-Denis 6x75cl
"From the Pierre Virant vineyard at the top of the slope. Lively bright purple with a very classy nose. Rich fruit in perfect balance, filling the mouth with a coherence superior to the Chambolle. Fine boned yet with all the fruit you need. This is one to look out for." Jasper Morris MW, 91pts. 03/21

2021 Claudie Jobard, Pommard Premier Cru, Les Charmots 6x75cl
A remarkable terroir, oriented south/south-east and planted with very old vines (dating back to 1919), producing a tender, rich, concentrated, age-worthy pinot noir.

2021 Domaine Taupenot-Merme, Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 6x75cl
"Already well-knitted together, Romain's Charmes-Chambertin is the epitome of Grand Cru balance and elegance. Gorgeous velvety texture, powerful and long, it will be fabulous once it has the time to develop its bouquet, with 2 to 3 years in the bottle." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2020 Domaine Anne-Francoise Gros, Savigny-les-Beaune Premier Cru, Aux Guettes 6x75cl
The wedding of Vosne-Romanée's Anne-Françoise Gros to Pommard's François Parent led to the establishment in 1988 of this superb domaine, with excellent holdings across both the Côte de Beaune and... the Côte de Nuits. With the help of their children Caroline and Mathieu, they produce generous wines of power and depth, with gentle extraction and cool maceration giving the wines a beautifully seductive velvety texture. The bottlings' labels are all adorned with a different female head, inspired by Anne-Françoise and the artist's interpretation of the vineyard's style.
Well-made reds from Savigny have performed outstandingly in this vintage, and as one would expect from a producer of this quality, the fact is fully demonstrated in this lovely wine. From the premier cru vineyard adjacent to the Bois de Chenôve there is a warm, sun-kissed bouquet of ripe red fruit here, followed by a juicy, supple, medium-full mouthful of loveliness. With plenty of structure here to take it the distance, there is no hurry, but this will be delightful in just a few years - and indeed long after.

2020 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Champonnet 6x75cl
A powerful yet delicate, beautifully balanced ripe cherry nose leads you to a perfectly crafted juicy and slightly spicy palate with gentle hints of a freshly lit “Romeo y Julieta” wafting through. This is a serious wine with great class and finesse. Be sure to let alone a while before drinking and reward your patience beyond all expection.

2018 Joseph Roty, Gevrey-Chambertin 6x75cl
"Bursting with aromas of blackberries, plums, cassis, rich forest floor and black truffle, Roty's 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village is medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with rich... structuring tannins and a generous core of fruit. Lively and penetrating, if this vintage is overall a rather long-haul proposition chez Roty, this is one cuvée that's unusually approachable young." 90 pts., William Kelley, robertparker.com

2020 Domaine Joseph Voillot, Pommard Premier Cru, Les Epenots 6x75cl
Domaine Joseph Voillot holds 10 hectares of vineyards spanning the communes of Volnay and Pommard. Jean Pierre Charlot’s wines offer understatement and elegance, and in 2020 they have also... delivered fruit richness and an intensity rarely captured in Volnay and Pommard. These wines are impossible to ignore, showing modern classicism whilst perfectly expressing the wine’s unique terroirs. These are wines which speak so eloquently of their individual sites and are the essence of pinot noir. For buyers keen to experience the purity and poise of Volnay and Pommard in a great vintage, look no further than Domaine Joseph Voillot.

2021 Domaine Anne et Herve Sigaut, Chambolle-Musigny 6x75cl
"This is a model of elegance and finesse at village level. An inviting and generous nose of raspberries and violets leads to delightfully flavourful sweet fruit with refined tannins and a polished finish. This is a truly lovely wine punching well above its weight." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Claudie Jobard, Beaune Premier Cru, Les Epenotes 6x75cl
The continuation into Beaune of Les Epenots, one of two vineyards in Pommard considered for promotion to Grand Cru status. With the added mid-palate fat and ripeness in Beaune here is a cuvée that delivers superb structure and power, and will age gracefully for a couple of decades. (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)
