The 2022 Sancerre is a tender, rounded wine with delicate pineapple, floral and pear aromas. It's gentle with a fine line of ripe acidity, providing gentle refreshment. (Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, July 2023) — 9 months ago

2004. This is a great iteration of the esoteric Charmes-Chambertin. Tannins are yet unresolved and many years are left under this fine Burgundy! — 9 years ago

9.2

Beautiful deep purple color. Plush aromas of sour cherries, plum and kirsch with just a whiff of alcohol pushing through. Juicy and vibrant on the palate with fresh acidity and fine tannins. Flavors of cherry and blackberries lead to vibrant, focused acidity. The finish is lead by notes of blueberry and kirsch followed by graphite and a floral note that lingers for 30 seconds or more. Delicious! — 7 years ago

9.1

Lovely wine. Clear and bright with glimmering pale lemon colors and a fresh and crisp aroma of new basketballs and rubber hose like a good Riesling from Mosel along with honey and honeysuckle notes. Lively and good acidity on the palate it has a lot of expression and would go great with Asian or Indian cuisine. — 9 years ago

9.1

From a lieu dit surrounded by Gevrey. Definitely young but with a couple hour decant quite enjoyable and accessible. Tons of sweet cherry on the nose; aromatically really quite intense. Full on the palate, get more tannin than I was expecting, but very nicely balanced by a lot of acid. Enjoyed it with a roast chicken provencal but could have stood up to red meat too. Nice qpr at ~$30. Note this is not the “cuvee unique”, which apparently a 100% new oak bottling - this is the regular which is 85% old. — 4 years ago

Powerful and rich. Serious sap. Framed by good acidity on a mineral spine. And this was a mild leaker. — 10 years ago
