2010 Vintage. Slight sprits on opening. Probably, a low sulphur wine. However, once decanted the wine delivered. The nose is complex. Dark cherry, raspberry and orange rind intermingle with hints of charred chorizo, mushroom consume, coffee and spice. The palate is juicy and generous balanced with supple long tannins. Dark cherry, charcuterie,mushroom and spice intermingle. Finish savoury and compelling. Yum — 10 years ago

This is a stunner with an amazing mid-palate, where ripe dark berries intermingle with milk chocolate, spicy oak, roasted herbs and sexy, sweet tannins. Positive development adds partially dried plums and figs; all balanced by a lowish but pure streak of acididy. — 10 years ago

An intense, bright, golden yellow, this Chardonnay has aroma notes of citrus and quince with tropical fruits, such as banana and pineapple, that intermingle with fine hint of toast that lend complexity. On the palate, this wine is well-rounded and lush with tremendous balance and acidity that refreshes the palate from beginning to end. This Chardonnay culminates in a long and elegant fruity finish. — 10 years ago

Very concentrated and intense fruit with dense cherry and spiced blackberry aromas and some smoke and leather on the nose intermingle with some camphor and pepper. The palate shows great intensity of fruit with spiced raspberry, blackberry, and pressed currant with a dose of pepper and firm tannins. Finish shows more dark and red fruits when some Christmas spice. I love this wine! — 10 years ago

Amazing depth and clarity of fruit from nose to palate. Smells range from coffee-tar to mushroom mulch and black cherry au jus. Lovely cherry blossom notes intermingle with rose water. The tannins are big initially, but harmonize rapidly in the glass. The drying sensation in no way detracts from the fruit which is bright plum and melange of cherries including bing finishing with aloft raspberry pillow. The balance is there, the stony, schisty minerality, and the oak is perfect, allowing the wine to speak in all its elegant Chiantese! Muscle for the money!! Feed this beauty something earthy, beefy or both! — 10 years ago

2008 absolutely shocked at the PQR for this wine. A textbook example of what a fine Burgundy should bring to the table. And thats without ruining your budget. Crisp and ripe red cherries, raspberries, sloe berries intermingle with a delicate steminess, almost a little peppery. Well polished tannins that make you salivate longing for more. In its own league its an A + — 10 years ago

Pours dark. Herbal and savory, would remind me of Nebbiolo if it had some tar and roses. Fresh and bright without being a fruit-bomb, and with some sophistication lent by the herbs. Rosemary, mint, and some grassy notes intermingle. This is a biodynamic wine, grown by Marie Belevier. 85% Merlot, 15% Cab Franc, aged in 50% new oak for 15 months. Unfiltered. — 9 years ago

Massive aromas of black raspberry, cherry and plum with just a hint of stone. Juicy and a bit spicy on the palate with lots of bright acidity. Rich, lush fruit flavors intermingle with soft, round tannins and a nice amount of earth. The finish is long and drying with bright acidity. — 10 years ago

Dark perfumed aromas of blueberry jam combine with cocoa, vanilla cream, and tobacco. The palate is bold, complex and fruitful. Loganberry and blackberry intermingle with dark chocolate, and are seamlessly brought together with perceptible tannins that sustain a long and youthful finish.

Really cool Spätburgunder-like Pinot. Pretty florals, tomato leaf and earthiness intermingle on the nose leading into a lean mid-palate before finishing with a rush of saline acidity framed by superfine tannins. Well done. — 10 years ago
