Côte de Beaune

Again the bight fruit, ripe but still floral on the nose, good weight of silky body on the palate. Very attractively pure and straight.

There is a joyful and perky, redder line to the fruit -than the Chorey and a higher toned feel. Always more refined and elegant in the glass. This is a beauty. Classic lines and grace- but that house injection of joy kee...(read more)

New Wine this year. Between Beaune and Pommard (nearer Pommard) Just opposite Terre Rondes and Epenottes but on the plain. Good in warmer years - as does not dry out here. Firmer but clean and bright profile. Beaune real...(read more)

This replaces the 'Comme Dessus' cuvee in the line-up this year at that vineyard was frosted 100%. A supple and rounded wine with old vines ripeness and it will be an easy wine to drink young.

Well rounded. Elegant. Still quite ripe but well balanced. Strawberry, raspberries. Sweet spice. Juicy with ripe tannins. Finishes well.

Super nose and attack. Very charming sweep of red fruits and floral notes. Delicious but more serious a tad tighter without being too hefty - just a bit leaner for now - will open and be a real charmer. Planted in 1983.

Very purple, with a smokier nose. Good pert fruit on the palate, with a lovely smoky, savoury backbone. Firm but gentle tannins. Lovely.

That slightly broader, sweeter richness of Pommard, sweet dense fruit picked up with lovely acidity - gorgeous, lots of punch and character.

Tasted when racked but not yet bottled. Not as dark or rich as the Pommard Tavannes but yet again this is a big wine with plenty of red & black fruits. Sweet spice. Lots of tannic structure. Ripe, rich but well balanced.

This is a cuvée mostly of young vines which have just come into production, and which Nico told us he was reluctant to blend with the old vines fruit which is in the 'origines' cuvée, making the final decis...(read more)
