Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Corton Clos du Roi graces the palate with exquisite depth and sheer purity. Layers of seamless fruit emerge from this sublime, totally refined wine. De Montille used two-thirds whole clusters and 50% new oak barrels, but none of that stands out. It is the superb depth and purity of the..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is quite ripe as there is a discreet hint of exotic fruit to the otherwise more typical aromas of pure citrus, acacia blossom and wet stone scents. The ultra-precise and intense middle weight flavors seem extracted directly from liquid stone and when coupled with the wonderful sense of..

"Remoissenet’s 2010 Corton-Charlemagne is strikingly beautiful. It is at first quite understated, with intense floral notes that dominate its balance. With time in the glass the fruit begins to emerge. An exotic tapestry of ripe – at times tropical – fruit layers into hints of smoke, slate and..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Clos des Lambrays is striking. Dark cherries, plums, wild berries, spices and licorice are woven together beautifully in this highly expressive, singular wine. A cool vein of minerality is a common thread as the wine continues to take shape in the glass. There is a beguiling, mysterious..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The 2010 Clos de Tart is still a work in progress, but this early tasting is fascinating. Layers of deep, dark fruit nearly jump from the glass in this exotic, full-bodied Clos de Tart. Crushed flowers, violets and spices develop over time as the wine gains its easy upper register. The tannins are..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A spicy, ripe, elegant and admirably pure nose offers up notes of anise, sandalwood and clove that add breadth to the floral, earth and stone-suffused aromas. There is the same superb breadth to the rich, intense and tension-filled full-bodied flavors that possess excellent power and drive on the..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is completely different and trades elegance for notably more aromatic complexity as here the nose is impressively broad-ranging with its panoply of ripe orchard fruit, rose, lavender and white flower nuances coupled with notes of citrus peel, stone and spices. There is a discreet touch of..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Background notes of wood are discernible but stop short of being invasive as they still allow the restrained, cool and pure dark berry fruit and black cherry aromas to shine. Interestingly this is less overtly spicy as the Amoureuses at present though there is a genuinely gorgeous inner mouth..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"An exuberantly spicy, fresh and ripe nose speaks of red berry fruit liqueur, plum, anise and clove plus discreet mineral nuances. The powerful and sleekly muscular flavors are quite firm yet there is a certain generosity present that finesses any sense of toughness...."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
BH:"Not unexpectedly, here the brooding and somber nose is completely different with a much greater emphasis on earth and smoked tea nuances on the darker hued fruit that includes cassis and black raspberry. The rich, powerful and impressively concentrated large-scaled flavors exhibit a..
