Cellar/Tasting Notes
A discreet touch of wood sets off a ripe, fresh and completely classic Meursault nose of hazelnut, yellow orchard fruit and softly spiced pear aromas that give way to rich, full-bodied and opulent flavors that retain a fine sense of cut and plenty of energy on the agreeably dry, balanced and long..

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
"The wood treatment here is subtle to the point of being almost invisible, which permits the airy, cool and beautifully layered aromas of white fruit, floral, wet stone and sea shore nuances to really shine. The opulent and very rich medium weight plus flavors possess plenty of mouth coating..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Very generous wood marks the nose of raspberry liqueur and wet stone aromas. There is a lush, round and lavish mouth feel to the pleasantly textured medium-bodied flavors that possess fine volume on the firm if not especially vibrant flavors that offer very good depth and length..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Strong sulfur renders the nose almost unreadable and about all that can be discerned is that the underlying fruit appears ripe.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A nice contrast to the Macherelles, the 2010 Chassagne-Montrachet Maltroye is quite a bit brighter and more taut than its Chassagne sibling. There is an underlying salinity that gives the Maltroye its energy and focus. Floral notes add lift on the crystalline, articulate finish. This is a..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"More moderate though far from invisible wood frames distinctly spicy and sauvage aromas of menthol, earth, plum and smoked meat nuances. There is fine volume and solid ripeness to the very firm supporting tannins that shape the medium weight and quite suave flavors that possess a bit more punch..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2011 Pinot Noir Estate is fleshy, seductive and quite pretty. Freshly cut flowers, dark red cherries, mint and anise are nicely balanced. A vinous, inviting Pinot, the 2011 is best suited for drinking over the next few years. There is a tremendous amount of early appeal here."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2007 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Vigneto Sant-Urbano bursts onto the palate with notable intensity. There is a fairly immediate style, but there is nothing to fault in the wine's explosive personality and fabulous overall balance. Black cherries, plums, espresso and mocha flesh out on..
