Beaune 1er Cru Bressandes  |
$69 |

|
| |
| WS 91 (6/2012): Though the cherry flavor is bright and pure, there's a woody component to this wine that lends a sweet spice note and dry tannins to the finish. Elegant and tight-grained. Best from 2015 through 2027. 170 cases imported. |

| BH 88 (6/2003): Light to medium ruby with subtle, beautifully complex aromas of damp earth, fresh pinot fruit and a touch of smoked bacon followed by flavors of excellent distinction and precision. This is crisp and bright in its flavor delivery with frank, round, ripe, ever so slightly rustic tannins yet manages to remain very pretty. In particular, the 2000 Clos des Couchereaux finishes with a satisfying and beguiling sweetness. Lovely effort for the vintage. Try from 2005+. |

Bonnes Mares Grand Cru (1.5 L) Slightly Depressed Cork |
$275 |

|

VM 93+ (4/2007): Deep red. Pure, highly nuanced nose melds dark cherry, dried rose, minerals, brown spices and a medicinal whiff of menthol. Wonderfully suave and ripe but in the cooler style of the year. But this very classy wine possesses a fine-grained texture and superb penetration of flavor. Finishes very long and youthfully medicinal, with substantial dusty tannins and superb grip. A wine like this is almost more impressive than a great Bonnes-Mares from an outstanding year.
WS 91 (5/2007): Intense and unevolved, with blackberry, earth and mineral flavors and a firm backbone. Almost impenetrable now, yet the finish is long and fresh. Best from 2009 through 2018. 170 cases made.
BH 90? (4/2007): Subtle wood spice frames elegant and very pretty aromas of red, black and violet notes nuanced by hints of crushed leaf, earth and underbrush that dissolve into relatively forward middle weight flavors underpinned by distinctly firm yet very fine tannins and acceptable if not distinguished length. While this does not lack for power, it's a relatively elegant and refined effort for this appellation but like several wines in the range, the finish is somewhat dry. |

WA 95 (4/2012): The 2009 Bonnes-Mares is another wine that is showing very little of its potential today. Black cherries, cassis, licorice, graphite and spices are some of the many notes that emerge from this powerful, super-intense Burgundy. The finish turns implosive and incredibly mineral. This, too, should be a jewel when it awakens from its current state of dormancy. The 2009 is at once sensual yet powerful. In other words, it captures the nuance, complexity and pedigree of this site to the maximum. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039.

This, too, should be a jewel when it awakens from its current state of dormancy. The 2009 is at once sensual yet powerful. In other words, it captures the nuance, complexity and pedigree of this site to the maximum. Antonio Galloni.
WS 93 (6/2012): An opulent, powerful red, permeated with cherry, strawberry and mineral flavors, all supported by dense tannins. It's the tannins that leave an impression on the finish, but not in a drying sense. An element of sweet fruit remains. Monolithic now. Best from 2016 through 2035. 80 cases imported.
BH 93 (4/2012): Here the notably ripe nose offers up liqueur-like dark berry fruit aromas that leads to big, rich and overtly bold and still compact large-scaled flavors that evidence obvious muscle and power before culminating in a very firm, intense, explosive and driving finish that delivers outstanding length. This is a formidable wine with dense and mouth coating tannins that will require at least 15 years to fully resolve and 20 would not surprise me. Note that unlike some of these '09s, this is very definitely not for early consumption as it is presently almost aggressively austere. Drink 2024+. |

Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru |
$195 |

|
| |
| BH 93-95 (4/2013): There is also enough oak influence to notice though not enough to materially detract from the high-toned and overtly spicy red currant, cherry and plum suffused nose. There is a lovely minerality to the supple, forward and refined middle weight plus flavors that possess a wonderfully refined mouth feel before culminating in a long, powerful, concentrated and palate drenching finish. While not truly a wine of finesse in the same sense as a fine Chambolle or Volnay, this is relatively subtle as the supporting tannins have the same fine grain as the best of these 2011s. Drink 2023+. Don't miss! |

VM 95+ (3/2017): Bright medium red. Reticent on the nose but already conveying exhilarating high tones to its aromas of raspberry liqueur, pomegranate, wild herbs, spices and game. Dense and seamless but also salty and penetrating, communicating a distinctly wild aspect to its flavors of cranberry, dark cherry, minerals and game. Aeration brought a compelling creaminess to the middle palate, but the wine's unflagging finish suggests that this powerful expression of soil will repay extended cellaring. Even today, the noble tannins are in perfect harmony with the wine's fruit. Stephen Tanzer.
WS 95 (5/2017): High-toned red berry fruit sets the pace for this tensile red, as sweet spice and a chalky undertone add depth. Turns firm and taut on the finish, merely hinting at the potential. Best from 2022 through 2040. 180 cases made.
BH 94 (4/2017): Discernible wood highlights the elegant, pure and highly spiced aromas of perfumed red pinot fruit that displays additional depth in the form of Gevrey style earth, floral and Asian-style tea notes. There is a softly exotic character to the mineral-driven big-bodied flavors that retain a fine sense of detail and intensity on the hugely long, complex and palate staining finish. This is a beautiful if firmly structured wine that is likely going to need between 12 and 15 years of cellar time to reveal its full, and considerable, potential. Drink 2026+. |

Chapelle Chambertin Grand Cru (1.5 L) |
$299 |

|
| |
| BH 93 (4/2013): ( from En Gémeaux; these are the oldest vines of the entire Jadot portfolio of owned vineyards.) This was quite reduced at first and required more than an hour of aeration to finally reveal fresh, cool and mineral-inflected red berry fruit, earth, game, humus and forest floor aromas. There is superb intensity to the almost aggressively stone and beautifully well-delineated large-scaled flavors that possess an extremely firm, mouth coating and driving finish. There is a real sense of underlying tension with an overt austerity to the very serious and stunningly long finish. The En Gémeaux character of pungent minerality is about as front and center as I have ever seen it. I repeat that this is at present one very, very austere wine and there is absolutely zero reason to open a bottle young. However, if you choose to commit wine infanticide of such an egregious nature, give it 4 to 6 hours in a decanter. I believe based on how the wine evolved over several days that it will in time be genuinely excellent as the underlying material is certainly present but this is most definitely a "bury in the back of the cellar and forget you own it" Chapelle. Drink 2030+. |

Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques ETA 90-120 Days (6x750ML) |
$1,007.99 |

WS 93 (4/2016): Intense and powerful, with plum, black cherry and spice flavors flowing before giving way to dense tannins. Finishes with tobacco and mineral elements. All the components are there, but this needs time to integrate. Best from 2018 through 2027. 200 cases imported.
WA 92-94 (12/2014): The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint Jacques has a very refined, you could almost say "mild-mannered" bouquet compared to the other Gevrey premier cru, with more mineral notes and more floral scents emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a sturdy and assertive entry: bold but ripe, supple tannin knitted with well-judged acidity that dovetail into a very focused finish. This is not as immediate as I believe the other Gevrey premier cru will be and will deserve several years in bottle.
BH 91-94 (4/2015): Here there is a bit more wood with the associated traces of menthol that surround the elegant floral and like the Estournelles, airy essence of red berry fruit liqueur and spice suffused aromas. There is a sophisticated mouth feel to the appealingly textured, intense and focused middle weight flavors that also display plenty of minerality that serves to add lift to the structured, serious and strikingly long finish. This is indisputably terrific though interestingly it doesn't seem to have quite as much separation between it and the other Gevrey 1ers in the range as I typically find chez Jadot. Still, this should be a really lovely effort though note well that this is a CSJ for the patient. Drink 2027+. Sweet Spot Outstanding! VM 90-93 (1/2015): (this fruit was harvested on October 10, following heavy rain on the 9th): Medium red. Lovely rose petal perfume dominates the nose. Juicy and pure but tight and youthfully unforgiving; showing less fat and volume than the Estournelles. Unless this is simply painfully backward, it's hard to imagine this wine ever delivering the satisfaction of the Estournelles. Stephen. Tanzer. |

| BH 93-95 (4/2013): (from 90+ year old vines in a parcel measuring .32 ha.) Background notes of wood are discernible but stop short of being invasive as they still allow the restrained, cool and pure dark berry fruit and black cherry aromas to shine. Interestingly this is less overtly spicy as the Amoureuses at present though there is a genuinely gorgeous inner mouth perfume to the suave, round and polished middle weight plus flavors that possess plenty of underlying muscle and power on the hugely long, balanced and impressively complex finish. While clearly firmly structured, this is somewhat more forward and approachable than is typical for this wine. Drink 2023+. Don't miss! |

Mazis Chambertin Grand Cru (3.0 L) Chipped Wax Capsule. |
$675 |
1 |
|
| |
BH 90-92 (4/2008): A very different nose presents itself here with fresh, cool and intensely feral notes on the otherwise pretty red berry and earth suffused aromas that lead to rich, full and sweet flavors that are delicious but serious, all wrapped in a minerally finish of excellent length. There isn't quite the depth of material here of the very best in the range but it's not far off and this should make for a very satisfying and classic Mazis in 8 to 10 years. Drink 2014+.
VM 90-93 (4/2008): Saturated, deep ruby-red. Musky, distinctly wild aromas of black fruits, mocha and smoked meat. Concentrated and rather powerful but juicy, with slightly reduced flavors of dark berries, minerals and game. As creamy as the Chapelle but not quite as sweet and lush on the finish. |
