Clos de la Vieille Eglise, the tiny property estate of Jean-Louis and Benoît Trocard, has an opulent bouquet with layers of ripe cassis and blueberry fruit, just showing a little more alcohol than its Pomerol peers. The palate is ripe and generous on the entry. I was expecting it to spill over into something overdone... but no. It is actually very elegant and harmonious with great depth and very fine persistence.
Bernard Magrez Les Pensées de la Tour Carnet Haut-Médoc 2016 is a captivating Bordeaux red wine that embodies finesse and depth. Offering layers of ripe blackcurrant, plum, and gentle spice, it reveals a velvety texture and well-balanced structure.
The 2021 Échézeaux Grand Cru has turned out beautifully in bottle, bursting with aromas of wild strawberries, spruce, baking spices and orange zest, followed by a full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping palate that's taken on appreciable mid-palate fat and dimension since I tasted it from barrel last year.
Chateau Francs-Bories offers remarkable color, bouquet, and a enjoyably, fine sap. It is the perfect accompaniment to red and white meat and cheese. Produced by Consorts Roux-A. Arnuad.
The excellent 2016 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Cras Vieilles Vignes Cuvée Claude Denogent offers up aromas of ripe pears, confit citrus, vanilla pod and mint, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered palate that's deep and powerful but more structured than the voluptuous Clos Reyssié, built around ripe acids and chalky dry extract.
The climate here is perfect for ripening the fruit while maintaining plenty of zingy acidity, so it’s no wonder why rows of Sauvignon extend as far as the eye can see, interrupted only by the Loire Valley’s splendid châteaux and the meandering river itself.
65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 10% Petit Verdot.The family estate launch in 1946 by Jean-Claude Ballet's grandfather, Cyprien Furt, with only 5 ha, has been take over 16 years after by his grandson and now by Nathalie and Bruno. Today, the estate coves 57 ha of vines and produces 2 wines Chateau Haut Branda and Chateau La Caussade.
The finest rendition of this cuvée to date, Santenay Les Vignes Denses derives from high-density plantings in lieu-dit Les Prarons. Unwinding in the glass with notions of crisp Anjou pear, lemon oil, vanilla pod and crushed chalk, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and complete, with a deep core of fruit that's framed by chalky dry extract and racy acids. This is worth a special effort to seek out.
2022 is an outstanding Burgundy vintage: a warm and dry year that has produced wines with very high levels of ripeness and power, but which remain beautifully balanced and fresh-tasting too. The quality of the grapes was as good as many growers had ever seen.
Revisited in bottle, the 2021 Santenay Rouge Gravité has fulfilled all the potential it displayed from barrel. Mingling aromas of blackberries and cassis with hints of menthol, orange oil and exotic spices, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and velvety, with a fleshy, strikingly concentrated core of fruit that's framed by supple tannins, concluding with a long, saline finish.
Domaine Lucien Boillot & Fils Volnay Clos des Angles 1er Cru 2021 is a refined Burgundy showcasing the elegance of Volnay. This wine offers delicate aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and rose petals, with a silky texture and vibrant acidity.
This great wine is the result of demanding vinification and aging processes, as well as the quality of our Syrah and Grenache parcels located at the foot of the famous Mont Ventoux.
