Gerard Julien & Fils Nuits-St-Georges Aux Saints Juliens 2020
$175.00From a vineyard to the north of Nuits, close to Vosne-Romanee. This is a huge wine, dark in colour and dark in flavour. Despite the vineyards proximity to Vosne-Romanee this is very much a Nuits. Blackberry, blackcurrant, mulberry, blood plum, wood spice and flowers. Full bodied, immensely powerful, with a sort of granite like quality; […]

Thierry Glantenay Pommard 1er Cru Saussilles 2019
$225.00The latest rendition of a cuvée that goes from strength to strength, Glantenay‘s old vine 2019 Pommard 1er Cru Les Saussilles offers up notions of Griotte cherries, cassis, potpourri and dark chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, racy and concentrated, with superb depth at the core and a saline finish, it’s well worth seeking out. As I’ve written […]

Thierry Glantenay Volnay 1er Cru Santenots 2019
$210.00The 2019 Volnay 1er Cru Les Santenots was the last wine in the cellar to finish its malolactic fermentation, and its bouquet of smoky blackberries and cherries was still comparatively unformed. Medium to full-bodied, layered and lively, its bright acids and powdery tannins mark it out as a particular success this year. 91-93+ Points – William Kelley, […]

Henri Germain Meursault Clos des Mouches Rouge 2021
$225.00This should not be confused with the Beaune Premier Cru of the same name. Meursault’s Clos des Mouches is a tiny monopole belonging to Henri Germain and devoted to Pinot Noir. It could be labelled as Volnay, as most reds from Meursault are, but Germain chooses to call a Meursault a Meursault. The half-hectare site lies near the Volnay border, due south […]

Gembrook Hill JKM Pinot Noir 2022
$95.00Two barrels only, about a third whole bunches. The DNA of the estate in overdrive. Sweet and tangy red fruits of raspberry, English strawberry, plum, cranberry, dark cherry and rhubarb. Lovely succulent palate of incredible textural complexity. Cashmere and slick, yet the finish is bookended by firm skinsy tannins. The fruit is abundant, but what […]

Chantereves Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Tuyaux 2021
$200.00The Chanterêves team has been purchasing fruit from Les Tuyaux since 2019. This small plot of 60-year-old vines is located at the northern end of the appellation, next to Aux Herbues on the border between Vosne-Romanee and Nuits-Saint-Georges. Soils are relatively deep, stony and light in colour. Chanterêves’ Nuits-Saint-Georges wines always look more Vosne in […]

Mac Forbes Gladysdale Village Pinot Noir 2022
$65.00The roundest, spiciest and most opulent of the village wines. Licorice, black cherry, chocolate, cassis and bay leaf lead onto a rich and succulent palate. Plenty of tang to be sure, amongst all the sweet dark fruit, and spice, loads of Christmas spice, lavender wood and tobacco. Great tension of elements, the flesh of fruit, […]

Nicole Lamarche Vosne-Romanee 2020
$210.00“Mid pink-purple in colour, notably reduced nose. Too much to blow off. Very pretty elegant pure red fruit on the palate, with good concentration, plenty of oak and the slight firmness from the reduction. That apart, this is excellent, and very long. Scored on the basis that the reduction will depart.” 89-92 points, Jasper Morris MW, […]

Francois Millet et Fils Chambolle-Musigny Les Foucheres 2020
$400.00A cool vineyard just 50 metres south of Musigny where Francois perfected his craft at Comte de Vogue. It’s a cool site, facing northeast with sparse soils of limestone and gravel. A vineyard of great expression and high toned intensity, yielding wines of great concentration, yet pretty and elegant. The 2020 is incredibly expressive with […]

David Moreau Santenay Rouge 1er Cru Beaurepaire 2021
$145.00The 2021 Santenay Beaurepaire 1er Cru has a clean and pure bouquet with precise and pure red cherry and strawberry fruit, wilted rose petal and light violet aromas percolating through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip, a little foursquare in style. A small amount of chalkiness towards the finish is detailed, though […]

Thierry Glantenay Pommard Riottes 2020
$200.00Aromas of raspberries and cherries mingled with hints of forest floor and raw cocoa introduce the 2020 Pommard Les Riottes, a medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated wine that concludes with a long, mineral finish. The vines in this site are suffering, yielding only a single barrel this year. (89-91/100) – William Kelley, The Wine […]

Benjamin Leroux Pommard 2019
$168.00Natural cork. With both this cuvée and the wonderful Rugiens-Hauts, Leroux is back in Pommard with a bang. The 2019 is a blend of Les Vaumuriens (high on the slope) and Les Cras (on the lower slope), both vineyards lying on the Volnay side of the village. Leroux notes the cooler, hillside fruit from Les Vaumuriens brings freshness and balance to the blend. […]
