Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A highly spiced nose of cassis, red currant, plum and warm earth complements well the equally ripe and notably earthy medium weight flavors that possess a succulent palate impression as there is ample dry extract present. This is really quite powerful with fine focus and detail to the harmonious..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Though intense, this is elegant and vibrant, exhibiting pure cherry, raspberry and tobacco aromas and flavors. Its tannins are very well-integrated. The lingering aftertaste evokes coffee and mineral..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Corbeaux comes across as cool, inward and virile. It possesses stunning mid-palate presence and depth. Layers of black cherry, blackberry, spices and graphite emerge on the intense, palate-staining finish. Here, too, it is the energy and textural breadth that set the..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Shows fine density, even a slight astringency. Ripe apple and peach flavors are rich and persistent, with vanilla and mineral notes emerging on the finish. The long, expansive finish reveals its potential. Best from 2008 through 2018. 4,000 cases made. –BS"

Cellar/Tasting Notes
" Medium red-ruby. Expressive nose melds currant, cherry, tobacco leaf and fresh herbs. Supple and drinkable already, with a fragrant component of exotic smoky oak adding interest to the dark berry and herbal flavors. Finishes slightly tart, with a fine dusting of tannins."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2008 Barolo Cascina Francia is all understatement and class. Silky, impeccable tannins support expressive red berries, flowers, mint and sweet spices. The 2008 is an intensely perfumed Cascina Francia that impresses for the purity of its fruit and its phenomenal overall balance. Anticipated..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
It boasts an inky/purple color along with a gorgeous bouquet of mocha, chocolate, blackberry and cassis fruit, an unctuous texture, a full-bodied, viscous mouthfeel and a skyscraper-like, multilayered finish. This spectacular wine is nearly overwhelming in its richness, thickness and intensity.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Domaine Tortochot's 2010 Chambertin is a serious wine from a serious winemaker. Chantal Tortochot is an "old school" wine maker with a modern touch, who lets the greatness of the wine speak for itself. Dark fruits, violets, plum and truffle on the nose, followed by a mouth-coating blend of dark..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Good medium red. Red fruit aromas of cherry, redcurrant and raspberry lifted by a floral element. Supple and suave on entry, then seamless in the middle, with floral and mineral notes giving the wine excellent life in the mouth. A bit less obviously sweet toward the back, finishing with..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Very good ruby-red. Currant, tobacco, game and roasted nuts on the expressive nose. Full, supple and sweetly oaky. Also wears its oak more gracefully. Very long on the finish, with ripe, tongue-coating tannins."
