Red Burgundy

Joël has absolutely nailed it once again with this. It smells youthful, but the palate is impressively intense. The fruit is nice, pretty, 'just' well-ripened. Red berries. Good lick of acid...(more info)

This is fine toned. More red berries, with a sherberty fizz, followed by darker fruit. Really jolly with a lot of pep and energy. More elegant than the Chorey, really fun to drink. Balanced.

From Petits Puits. Mostly on hard limestone - 'calcaire d'entroques'. Really quite expressive, the limestone seems to reflect a brightness of tone in the fruit, a good level of richness and a cer...(more info)

Ripe and grand, at once betraying it's origin 'on the Côte' (it is from Corgoloin, just south of Nuits). A underpinning of hard stone giving a brightening support and vivacity. Rich and sup...(more info)

A south-facing plot which is sunnier and ripens earlier and easily, and always seems to be a distinctive black fruit character. Silkier and finer than the Échezots for now, attractive with...(more info)

Deep nose with more black fruit in the depths. This vineyard faces due south, on limestone, so it has a good combination of a very sunny expostion and always ripens well. A sunny black fruit aspe...(more info)

From vines ten kilometres west of Nuits, on white marl and limestone. Quite a rich and fleshy nose, with more weight than the other Hautes Côtes cuvées. Vines that face straight sout...(more info)

From two separate parcels with differing soils, each brings its own personality with a fresh fruitness undercut with some complexing oak and a certain earthiness. Lovely mouthful of dark cherry a...(more info)
