Cellar/Tasting Notes
"A very pure nose of wet stone, spice and an elegant mix of various wild red berries. There is good richness to the mouth coating flavors that possess excellent volume and surprisingly good power, all wrapped in a mineral-driven finish that delivers excellent length. This is a big Chambolle and an..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Relatively strong reduction hides all but the spice and wood toast notes. By contrast there is good volume and mid-palate concentration to the well-delineated, intense and seductively textured flavors that are supported by firm and reasonably refined tannins on the dusty and moderately austere..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Pascale Doney" is a new label from Domaine Matrot, named for Thierry Matrot's wife, Pascale. Thierry is the family winemaker, and his 2009 Santentots displays the best of what red Cote de Beaune and Premier Cru Volnay can offer: roses, black cherries, and currants on the nose, and all that plus..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
A rich wine…black fruit and spice aromas, backed up by woody and smoky notes. Powerful. The beautiful structure and big rich aromas are the proof of good cellaring potential.

Cellar/Tasting Notes

It is a charming wine developing red berries and spices aromas evolving to truffles, undergrowth and animals notes. Very silky in the mouth, it is usually qualified as a..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This offers quite an interesting, and completely different, nose as it's quite floral with wild raspberry, currant and wet stone nuances combining with refined, detailed and very pinot flavors. There is an excellent depth, length and impeccable balance to the sappy and energetic finish. A really..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"In contrast to a number of the preceding wines, this is almost devoid of wood influence which allows the ripe and very earthy cassis and black raspberry aromas to enjoy center stage. The rich, full-bodied and enveloping middle weight plus flavors possess a suave, even silky mouth feel though the..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Here too there is moderate toasty influence on the notably ripe, indeed almost liqueur-like aromas of red and black raspberry, cassis, plum and soft spice notes. There is a textured mouth feel to the supple, round and delicious middle weight flavors that possess a bit more verve before culminating..
