A huge pinot noir and of a style that as far as i know, i have only tasted from Central Otago. Intense in every way. all the elements dialled up. Soaring aromatics of blackcurrant, blackberry, mulberry, sweet raspberry, licorice and dark chocolate. Dense, deep, concentrated and chewy, the fruit exuberant and glossy. Round and curvaceousness, with a very deep, baking spice laden core, the tannins ripe and juicy. Dripping in flavour and presence, not inelegant for all that, like a 3 day old Black Forest Gateau, with all the flavours and elements seeping into each other. Strap in folks! Waters Wine Co
Intense wine that is on the dark side with concentrated flavours that suggest black fruits, cacao powder, liquorice and anise supported by sweet, chewy tannins A wine of substance and of promise. Time will add new layers to an already tantalisingly complex wine. 97 Points – Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review
A rather smoky red on the nose with earthy, shiitake mushroom, lead pencil, dark cherry and strawberry aromas and flavors. Full-bodied and layered with lots of cloves and black pepper. Only the second bottling here. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. 96 Points – Jamessuckling.com

The palate, though, doesn’t need much coaxing, and this silken, sappy wine has excellent depth and persistence. Will be even better six to 12 months from now. 96 points – Philip […]
Add to cart Producer: Giant StepsThis is Mortet’s ‘super-Gevrey’, sourced from a clutch of five brilliantly placed plots that Denis Mortet chose for the quality of their terroir and plant material. All the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, which dictates the finesse. The vineyards include: En Motrot, situated between the church and Château de Gevrey-Chambertin, close to Clos Saint-Jacques; Au Vellé, […]

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. […]
