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
"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
"Strong sulfur renders the nose almost unreadable and about all that can be discerned is that the underlying fruit appears ripe. There is good volume to the rich, mouth coating and delicious medium weight flavors that offer outstanding intensity along with excellent length. If this can add depth in..

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

A generous, large-scaled wine, the Charmes flows with tons of textural richness and body all the way through to the seamless finish. The Charmes is easily one of the more..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Elegant acacia blossom, lemon zest, stone and pain grille suffused nose... excellent intensity... lovely depth on the mouth coating and impressively persistent finish... a wine of class and grace."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Moderate reduction knocks the nose down and renders it difficult to properly evaluate though there are no such issues with the rich, generous and solidly voluminous middle weight flavors that possess plenty of mid-palate sap before ending in a delicious and lightly mineral-infused finish. This..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is aromatically less refined but more complex with its expressive and rather pungent nose of hazelnut, green fruit, herbal, pear and just a hint of wood. There is excellent volume to the extract rich, powerful and solidly well-concentrated medium weight flavors that possess excellent..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Bold, direct and voluptuous. Nectarines, honey, flowers and spices all wrap around the palate in this big generous Charmes. A vein of minerality runs through the fruit, giving the wine its sense of energy and proportion. In 2010, the Charmes is especially rich, layered and unctuous." WA
