Richebourg 2011                                

2021+

Tasting note: A spicy, wonderfully fresh and cool nose is comprised of notes of plum, violets, anise, cinnamon, sandalwood and red pinot fruit liqueur scents. There is an opulent mouth feel to the velvety yet distinctly powerful broad-shouldered flavors that possess excellent volume before culminating in a balanced, impressively long and mouth coating finish. As classic examples of Richebourg go, this should drink well somewhat earlier yet will still require the better part of a decade to be enjoyable.

Echezeaux   2011                                

2019+

Tasting note: A discreet but not invisible touch of wood toast surrounds the ripe and fresh dark berry fruit liqueur and broad range of spice scents that give way to supple, round and quite seductively textured medium weight plus flavors where there is so much extract that they seem rather forward and accessible. The finish however tightens up sufficiently to suggest that 8 to 10 years of cellar time will be required. Note however that in contrast to some of the wines in the range, this will probably be approachable relatively young.

Chambolle Musigny 2011                        

2018+

Tasting note: An exuberantly spicy and quite fresh nose of wild red cherries, mineral nuances and a top note of violets introduce textured and attractively intense middle weight flavors that possess plenty of verve on the delicious finish that is shaped by firm but not hard tannins that are well-integrated. This will require a few years of patience.

Savigny Les Beaune Clos des Guettes 1er 2011      

2017+

Tasting note: An exceptionally fresh nose offers up notes of game, earth, red currants and plenty of Savigny style pungent earth aromas. There is an enticing touch of minerality to the delicious, supple and attractively well-detailed flavors that possess a lovely sense of vibrancy as well as a refreshing saline character on the solidly persistent and complex finish. Good stuff.

Pommard Les Pezerolles 2011                      

The predominance of rather clayey, chalky soil creates a very different cru. Deep garnet, intense black currant bouquet, blackberry and musk; lasting tannins and a profound acidity. The mellowness only becomes apparent after a few years of maturation… then one can appreciate savage aromas with a scent of underwood and sweet spices.

Vosne Romanee Clos de la Fontaine 2011            

2015+

Tasting note: A spicy, very fresh and markedly more complex nose of spice elements along with violet, red currant and plum scents combines with supple, round and almost soft medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a saline-infused finish of moderate depth and length. This is very forward and clearly meant for early drinking.

Bourgogne Haut Cotes de Nuits 2011                

2014+

Tasting note: A slightly fresher if more sauvage nose of pungent earth and wild dark currants gives way to vibrant, well-detailed and lightly mineral-inflected middle weight flavors that are shaped by ripe and relatively soft tannins on the focused and balanced finish. There is a bit more underlying material though this too could easily be appreciated now.
