Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Good deep red-ruby. Black cherry, licorice and violet on the nose; smells deep. Very ripe and sweet, with firm spine to the flavors of black fruits and violet. The substantial sweet, fine tannins really melt into the finish. Conveys an almost chocolatey ripeness while maintaining excellent..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"An elegant and distinctly cool and restrained nose features a pretty array of floral and stone notes on the wonderfully complex and layered red berry fruit and plum aromas. The same sense of refinement inculcates the intense and highly energetic medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
The Clos Saint Jacques vineyard is located at the beginning of the valley called Combe de lavaux. It is very nicely South-East oriented. There are only five owners of this prestigious Clos, which may have deserved the Grand Cru Appellation when the first official classification was decided. The..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A very toasty nose evidences a hint of tar on the mentholated nose both red and dark berry fruit and pungent earth aromas. There is good volume to the unusually supple, suave and smooth middle weight flavors that possess an opulent mouth feel as there is a plenitude of palate coating dry extract...

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Domaine Michel Gros Clos des Reas Vosne-Romanee Premier Cru 2010 is distinctly toasty with very spicy and seriously ripe aromas of cassis, black berry and red currant. It is medium-bodied and has a velvety mouthfeel on the long and sweet finish.

" An extremely pretty nose exhibits a well-layered aromatic profile of liqueur of red berry fruit, earth and soft spice scents that is trimmed in just enough wood toast to notice. There is a seductive consistency to the solidly well-concentrated medium-bodied flavors that ooze a fine dry extract..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
A serious wine from a serious winemaker and vineyard! Chantal Tortochot is an "old school" wine maker with a modern touch, with a welcome bias toward letting the greatness of the wine speak for itself. The 2010 Clos Vougeot displays classic power of the vineyard site. The fruit is rich and..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
The exceptional freshness of the 2010 vintage is more than apparent here with a restrained and cool nose of intensely earthy red and dark berry fruit aromas that also display forest floor and humus notes. There is outstanding concentration to the extract-rich broad-shouldered flavors that display..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Christian Serafin's 2010 Morey St. Denis Les Millandes is a brawny red Burgundy, endowed with complex fruit and spice aromas and flavors -- black cherries, leather and tobacco. Terrific balance and depth on the finish.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Generous wood presently fights somewhat with the otherwise notably ripe aromas of earth, smoke, dark berry fruit and a touch of the sauvage. The impressive concentrated, rich and mouth coating big-bodied flavors possess excellent depth on the dusty, intense and driving finish..."
