Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2008 Pinot Noir Private Stash is a bit more deeply colored, displays greater depth and concentration, and has enough structure to blossom for another 3-4 years. Mouth-filling and succulent..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Chablis Vaillons wraps around the palate with generous, deep layers of fruit. Here the warmth of the site comes through in fruit that tends towards yellow stone fruits and flowers. A rich, round core of fruit is supported by an inner sense of minerality. The Vaillons should drink well..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
" A very fresh and admirably pure nose offers up notes of white flower, spiced pear, wet stone and lemon hints that continue over to the intensely mineral-driven and beguilingly textured medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a citrusy, dry and solidly persistent finish. Lovely."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"More backward and concentrated, the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape exhibits a dark ruby/purple color as well as dense, black raspberry, black currant, garrigue, licorice and lavender characteristics. Full-bodied with undeniable elegance, minerality and precision, it needs 2-3 years of cellaring and..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is luscious and open, with peach, melon, ripe apple and grapefruit flavors. Not much oak here, but the alcohol is slightly elevated. A savory component adds a flourish on the finish..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A mildly exotic nose of pear and pineapple trimmed in very subtle wood nuances is followed by attractively well-detailed and seductively textured flavors that are blessed with plenty of mouth coating dry extract. The richness and very subtle sweetness of the mid-palate is completely offset by 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
"Deep ruby. Impressively pure raspberry and blackberry aromas are given an exotic twist by fresh violet, anise and graphite. Chewy dark fruit flavors boast remarkable concentration and clarity, with sweet mocha adding interest. Finishes with bright, mineral-accented cherry and cassis flavors and..
