An exciting new addition to our offer a couple of years ago, and continuing on good form in 2020, Domaine Du Pavillon is located south of Pommard in the Côte de Beaune. Just as at Domaine du Clos Frantin in Nuits-Saint-Georges, they practice organic viticulture with an ongoing respect for the complex equilibrium found in nature. The winery was modernized in 2016, allowing the vinification of more of the Côte de Beaune’s star single vineyard wines. From the 2019 vintage, all the wines from the estate have borne the certified “organic wine” label.

“The 2020 Meursault Les Charmes 1er Cru, mostly from Charmes-Dessus, has a well-defined bouquet with touches of orange pith and white peach, a hint of almond. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening, a fine line of acidity… Fine. Closure: Diam”

2020 Domaine Gerard Thomas, Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, Les Murgers des Dents de Chien 12x75cl
The piles of stones that give this vineyard its name are less common these days but can still be found on this imposing hillside adjacent to some of the best vineyards in neighbouring Puligny.
From a... vineyard a stone’s throw from Le Montrachet, this is richly textured with a great purity of fruit that manages to balance a precise lemon freshness on the nose with a creamy mineral finish on the palate. It is both hugely satisfying and eminently elegant.

2020 Domaine des Malandes, Chablis 12x75cl
"The 2020 Chablis wafts from the glass with scents of peach, white flowers, crisp orchard fruit and pastry. Medium to full-bodied, bright and incisive, with a fleshy core of fruit and a nicely defined finish, it's testament to the progress being made at this address." 88 pts., William Kelley, robertparker.com

2020 Domaine William Fevre, Chablis Grand Cru, Cote Bouguerots 6x75cl
“The 2020 Chablis Bougros Côte Bouguerots Grand Cru comes from two south-facing parcels on steep, sunny inclines. Proximity to the river keeps nighttime temperatures lower, maintaining acidity.... The intense nose features lemon thyme, crushed pebbles and sea spray scents. The palate sports a minor reduction, but there is fine depth here along with a keen line of acidity. Touches of white peach and nectarine emerge toward the minerally finish. Very fine.” Drink 2024-2042, 92-94 pts. Neal Martin, www.vinous.com

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.

2020 Dominique Lafon, Bourgogne, Blanc 12x75cl
Already responsible for some of the very finest white wines in the world at his family Domaine in Meursault, and for some of the best value the world of wine has to offer in their Maconnais outfit;... Dominique Lafon has also been making his own wines for 11 years now, from vineyards he either owns or manages. The Dominique Lafon wines, produced at the Château de Bligny winery, are superb, showing the value of Dominique’s talent, experience and meticulous attention to detail. Simply, these are wines produced by one of the worlds greatest vinous talents.
This blend of fruit from powerful Meursault and lifted, highly toned Puligny has been a firm favourite here in recent years. A classy Côte d'Or white crafted by one of the most celebrated names in the region, and at a sensationally attractive price point. Here’s a wine of stunning value -- one not to be missed.

2020 Benjamin Leroux, Auxey-Duresses, Blanc 6x75cl
Benjamin has been a good friend of ours since his days at Comte Armand, and his powerful, impressive winemaking style shines through in 2020 where concentration meets with backbone and guile in the... Volnay commune. He remembers his first ever visit to the UK back in 1999 where he spent some time staying with Richard Wheeler (Johnny's father, sadly passed away last year), memorable not least for the friendly dispute regarding the relative merits of local Mersea native Oysters versus their French counterparts! Benjamin’s Volnay 1er Cru Les Mitans reflects the greatest attributes of this excellent vintage. Density, richness and structure are all to the fore in a cuvée which gets better with every passing vintage.
With demand (and therefore prices) for St Aubin skyrocketing in recent years, Auxey-Duresses has replaced it as one of the best sources of value whites with more than a passing resemblance to the hallowed communes on the other side of the hill. Once again, Benjamin's hand is plain to see through this wonderfully fresh white of great textural interest - one to drink over the next 3 to 5 years, and a brilliant alternative to the classic styles.

2020 Domaine William Fevre, Chablis Premier Cru, Fourchaume 6x75cl
“An abundance of Chablis typicity is present on the aromas of mineral reduction, white orchard fruit, citrus zest and tidal pool. There is again very good volume and density to the medium-bodied... flavors that are unusually powerful for Fourchaume, all wrapped in a lemony and almost salty finish. This is quite promising and particularly so for a négociant offering... Outstanding," (Burghound)

2020 Laurent Cognard, Montagny Premier Cru, Le Vieux Chateau 6x75cl
This monopole Clos vineyard, right at the top of the hill, yields fruit of rare intensity and power, with excellent balancing acidity; deservedly given a little more new oak than the rest of the... range it delivers a sublime mix of creamy citrus curd and chalky notes on the long and clean, fresh finish. Breathtaking power and elegance in this cuvee from a producer redefining expectations for a whole appellation… What a wine!
