Tasted before racking, showing beautifully, lots of body and richness, a little point of sweetness, lots of energy and an engaging juicy spice. L&S (Jan 2014)

An ultra-fresh nose offers up cool and airy aromas of citrus, white peach, pear and acacia blossom. There is good concentration to the appealingly textured middle weight flavors that are built on a base of firm minerality, all wrapped in a solidly persistent and more complex finish. This is a lovely effort and worth a look. 2018+ Rating: 88-91 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jun 2014)

Domaine Henri Germain

Jean-François Germain was joined in 2018 by his daughter Lucie - who is now helping to run this small (7ha) domaine.

The Chassagne vineyards came through his mother, a Pillot, and Jean-François is married to François Jobard's daughter, so they are quite intertwined with some of our other producers. The Poruzots comes from the rows next to Remi Jobard's. In terms of winemaking the Germains are always happy to let nature take its course, and in the vineyards they follow as natural a system of viticulture as possible (organic, not certified).

These are concentrated, tightly wound wines from one of Burgundy's coldest cellars. Alcoholic fermentations can take months and the malolactics are often late, so they have always gone for long élevage in old barrels, always for two winters, and the Premiers Crus usually for 22 months. Slow to develop, they show wonderful crystalline purity. New wood is used very sparingly, just to replace barrels sold when they get to ten years old.
