Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This sports what is perhaps the most complex nose of any of the villages level wines in the extensive Jadot portfolio. A dense and beautifully layered nose features a variety of black fruit aromas along with notes of earth, spice and game. The mouth feel is unusually sophisticated and refined with..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"In contrast to a number of the preceding wines, this is almost devoid of wood influence which allows the ripe and very earthy cassis and black raspberry aromas to enjoy center stage. The rich, full-bodied and enveloping middle weight plus flavors possess a suave, even silky mouth feel though the..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Volnay bursts from the glass with bright red fruit, flowers, mint and spices. There is a nervous energy to the Volnay that is incredibly appealing. Beautifully articulated saline notes contribute briskness on the finish. This is a flat-out delicious Volnay."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Moderate wood influence fights just a bit with the otherwise very fresh and pretty aromas that display a significant floral component along with ripe scents of plum, cassis and earth. There is fine mid-palate density and excellent phenolic maturity to the large-scaled yet refined flavors that..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Here the very toasty oak aromas presently dominate the otherwise ripe underlying fruit. There is good freshness and verve to the exceptionally rich, powerful and concentrated broad-shouldered flavors that exude a finer minerality that continues onto the gorgeously long finish. There is so much..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Less prominent oak fights less with the very fresh red pinot fruit and stone aromas. There is excellent verve to the well-detailed and soil-inflected medium-bodied flavors that possess controlled power on the balanced and impressively long finish. The supporting tannins are fine-grained and an apt..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Nuits St. Georges Les Charmois is gorgeous. High-toned floral notes open up beautifully in the glass, followed by expressive red berries, licorice and spices. The 2010 possesses striking inner perfume, layers of supple fruit and the silkiest of tannins."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Bruno Clair’s 2009 Savigny-les-Beaune La Dominode is fabulous in this vintage. The warmth of the year has filled out the wine beautifully. The 2009 is ripe, exotic and flashy. I especially admire the juxtaposition of fleshiness and insistent minerality." (Antonio Galloni)

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"... wood combines with notes of menthol and extract of red berry fruit, earth, underbrush and game hints. There is a bit more verve to the suave and seductively textured mineral-driven flavors that offer fine depth and excellent persistence..." — Allen Meadows

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Relatively strong wood influence fights somewhat with the otherwise expressive nose that is comprised of spice, earth, menthol and cassis aromas. There is fine intensity to the attractively, even seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that possess focused power and punch on the balanced and..
