Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The larger-scaled 2010 Crozes-Hermitage Le Rouvre offers a dense purple color followed by aromas of graphite, fruitcake, black currants and blackberries. This stunning, full-bodied, rich Crozes-Hermitage has a lot in common with the more serious wines from Hermitage...

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Ripe cherry and dark berries on the fragrant, smoky nose. At once rich and lively, offering intense bitter cherry and cassis flavors... Finishes on a note of smoky bacon fat, with good tangy persistence."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Fairly deep garnet-red. Distinctive fruity, spicy and vegetal nose. Round, robust and savory palate revealing more of the nose aromatics. Structure and freshness on the finish. A good wine that will appeal to lovers of classic Medoc.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Very appealing, ripe, fresh dark fruit with considerable elegance and intensity; lots of depth and great texture. Tremendous quality for the money.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 St. Aubin is gorgeous. Smoke, slate and spices frame an expressive core of yellow stone fruits. This is another textured, open 2010 from Jadot. Seemingly endless layers of fruit stain the palate as the wine opens up in the glass. Rich, textured and creamy, the 2010 can be enjoyed today or..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
The Santenay Clos de Malte Blanc is a rich and structured wine. It is elegant and fresh, giving off fruity aromas as well as lemon-scents and subtle hints of wood.
