Gorgeous pinot purity on the nose, giving crushed strawberry, rose petal and a wisp of vanilla. Rounded on the palate, medium-bodied, with marmalade notes tinging the dark berry fruit. Deliciously bitter red/dark cherry finishing up. Superb.

2020 Domaine Anne-Francoise Gros, Vosne-Romanee, Les Chalandins 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.
Berry fruits and cherries pervade this wonderful expression of single climat Vosne-Romanée. It has a delightfully soft mouthfeel with silky tannins and a hint of toasty oak in the background. An outstandingly well-made wine at this level.

2021 Aurelien Verdet, Morey-Saint-Denis 6x75cl
"A deeply expressive Morey Villages giving notes of violets and white pepper in a comparatively powerful pinot that is full of character. Wonderfully spicy element so typical of the commune's wines and here one with added aromatic flourish. Quite superb." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

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, Vieilles Vignes 6x75cl
"The care and effort that goes into assembling this village Gevrey is second to none. Wines from ten or more small parcels are carefully woven together, with each complimenting the other. Light stony... soils bring a subtle elegance, body and robustness comes from a selection of clay-based vines and complexity and fine structure from fruit taken from land abutting the grands crus. This year is again masterful displaying a powerful and robust ripe cherry nose that unfolds in the mouth to give a spicy elegant expression of pure pinot fruit. The tannic ramparts bode well for excellent medium-term ageing, and all together this is genuinely a true pleasure." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2020 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Marsannay 6x75cl
A new find for Mr.Wheeler in the 2018 vintage and one we are pleased to follow since then; Domaine Livera is widely considered the “next Burgundian star” tellingly both by consumers of their... exceptional wines together with their winemaking contemporaries. The Livera family have been settled on the Domaine for almost 100 years, but Damien, who has been in charge for 13 years now, has taken the wines to a different level altogether. His style is one of purity, precision of fruit and impressive depth, quite reminiscent of the wines produced by Arnaud Mortet (who is a close friend and advisor). This is an up-and-coming address and very much one to watch.

2021 Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet, Bourgogne, Les Prielles 6x75cl
"Gorgeous, supreme-value Bourgogne Rouge giving a pretty nose of red berry fruit and savoury wisps of soil and baking chocolate. Medium-bodied, open, tangy acidity and a delightful core of pure fruit. Utterly charming red burgundy." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

2021 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos Village 6x75cl
Darker, more savoury, explosive and spicy, much more muscular and structured than the previous cuvées - we are getting into 1er Cru territory here yet retaining the precision and purity of fruit cosseted in fleshy, juicy texture that is, in my opinion, the hallmark of the estate. (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)

2021 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Fixin, Rouge 6x75cl
This has been one of the best “punches above its weight” cuvée of our portfolio for a few years now, and the 2021 continues the trend - stunning fruit, silkily-textured yet with a spicy edge, superb energy, really expressive and perfumed, with a glorious finish. 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 Philippe Livera (Tilleuls), Cote de Nuits-Villages 6x75cl
Crafted from fruit grown mostly in Brochon, a commune that, apart from Côtes de Nuits Village, can also produce Gevrey, Fixin and Bourgogne rouge - everything bar its own appellation! What does this one tastes like? Glorious! Dark, rich, juicy, mouth-filling with a beautifully-judged, delicately grippy structure. Superb.

2019 Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Champonnet 6x75cl
"Delicious gorgeous purple. 100% whole bunch but smothered by the fruit. A balanced headiness if you like, and beautifully attractive. The stems add a little structure, almost some muscle to the back, which I think is valuable in these richer years." 92-95 pts., Jasper Morris MW
