Lea & Sandeman review
From two parcels of vines in Corgoloin, south of Nuits. One has thirty-five year old vines, the others are over sixty years old. While this may not have the sweet juice of the 09, it is a lovely drink with satisfyingly dry tannins which compliment food so well.
Mixed Cases
Charles has unearthed an absolute gem from the Nuits St Georges hinterland. A wonderful estate run by Belgian Burgundy enthusiasts - father and son, Mark and Gilles Moustie - who went from family holidays spent among the vines to tending some vines of their own. Whenever we've shown these wines just lately they have met with excited praise.
This case contains a trio of the awesome 2009's that drew us to the estate in the first place, along with a slightly more measured 2008 for contrast.
