After the Bourgogne, there is a sweeter hit up front and lighter feel. More sleek. More uplifting. Fruit is delicate and has good pep to the red berry middle. Some weight builds some breadth, but this is elegant and prec...(read more)

Côte d'Or Burgundy France

Red
Pinot Noir.
Includes 40% 1er Cru Combe d’Orveau. Very pretty. Lifted and aerien. Fruit is on the quite dark red spectrum and not so sweet as some we have tasted. A nice measured more rhubarb and rooty edge. But then a sleeker, round...(read more)

Côte d'Or Burgundy France

Red
Pinot Noir.
A very stony and mineral vineyard. Lovely nose - bright and pure with a ruby-like clarity to the top-note, it's slimline, focused, with 'enough' concentration and weight. Very linear and pure.

‘Vignes Centenaires’ this was known as the Cuvée Ultra until 2011. (But to avoid any confusion Christophe keeps the word Ultra on the back label). Wow. Straight out of the blocks this is like a masterclass. Perfec...(read more)
