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.
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.

Made with 46% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Cabernet Franc. Château Mayne Turon Bordeaux is a luxurious red wine that embodies the rich winemaking traditions of the Bordeaux region. This wine offers deep and complex flavors of ripe dark berries, plum, and a touch of oak, complemented by smooth tannins and a long, elegant finish.
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 wine is something really special, Château Haut Perdrias is a Grand Vin de Bordeaux, which comes with lots of uniqueness, it takes its outstanding qualities from a unique terroir which is located in Cotes de Blayes.
The cellar in which Eric Jeanneteau raises his single wine, a beautiful red Saint-Émilion grand cru, is an unadorned building on the family estate in Saint-Étienne de Lisse. Jeanneteau varies his vinification quite a bit depending on each vintage’s conditions, and the results can be fascinating, even startling, like hearing the same symphony interpreted by different conductors.
Until the 1980s the wines of Languedoc-Roussillon were mostly rustic, roasted, and dirt-cheap--of little interest to export markets. Smells like strawberries, raspberries and white flowers.
