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.
Bordering Meursault, the cool and late-ripening ” Les Lurets” vineyard provides the excellent, perfumed and delicately structured fruit for this cuvée. Elegant and perfect with 5 years’ ageing.

2020 Domaine Morey Coffinet, Chassagne-Montrachet, Les Chaumees 6x75cl
We discovered the wines of this Chassagne-Montrachet rising star (established in its current form "only" 30 years ago, although the family cellars date from the 16th century) for the first time in... 2020, and although we were immediately impressed by the portfolio of great vineyards the Morey family cultivate, it was upon tasting the wines with Thibault Morey that we fell in love with them. The estate is run according to biodynamic principles throughout. Thibault is one of the new generation of winemakers who, through precise, rigorous work and an open mind not only to traditional and modern techniques but also to different expressions of the Burgundy terroirs, produce truly exciting wines. These are wines that combine richness and power with complexity and elegance effortlessly, and they come highly recommended.
For a Villages Chassagne, Thibault's Chaumes displays a lovely depth of fruit; on the mid-palate we are greeted with ripe, juicy black cherry, yet there is an excellent energy and move toward fresher flavours on the finish. The fine, gently firm and fruit-coated tannin structure makes for a wine that will drink beautifully from 3 years in bottle all the way to 8 years. Another excellent example of the consistency from this Domaine.

2018 Domaine Michel Magnien, Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru, Climats Or 6x75cl
"Fréderic Magnien is the fifth generation to run this biodynamic family estate in Morey-Saint-Denis. This is one of the finest estates in the region with wines of extraordinary aroma, purity of... fruit and elegance partnering the trademark Magnien richness and depth, with subtle use of new oak. Under any normal circumstances these are burgundies to make you sit up and take notice." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2020 Aurelien Verdet, Morey-Saint-Denis 6x75cl
From his modest winery hidden off the beaten track in the little village of Arcenant in the Hautes Côtes de Nuits, Aurélien Verdet crafts wines of astonishing purity and precision. A highly... talented young winemaker whose following is growing steadily every year, Aurélien is no exception to the adage that “Great wine is created in the vineyard”. Indeed, he lavishes great care and attention on his 5.5 ha of vines, which he farms organically to produce fruit of superb quality. The winemaking is then all about respecting that fruit to bring the terroir through, which he does with great aplomb. A rising star to watch!
Wonderfully expressive with notes of violets and white pepper, Aurélien's is a characterful, full-bodied and powerful Morey Villages. The warm conditions yielded a lovely opulence to the fruit, and it shows the typical spicy element one can expect of this commune's wines, with added aromatic flourish courtesy of Aurélien's careful winemaking. A very fine villages cuvée.

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.

2020 Claudie Jobard, Bourgogne Côte d’Or Milliane 12x75cl
Sourced from 70-to 80-year-old vines from around the Pommard area, this is an outstanding example of the relatively new “superior” Bourgogne rouge appellation of Côte d’Or. It is big and... forward with powerful toasted cherry fruit, yet with an underlying delicate structure of real class. Undoubtedly a heavyweight in lightweight territory. Not to be missed.
