Pale in colour, with notes of stone fruit on the nose. On the palate, lemon, grapefruit and white fruit. What pleases us most about this wine is that it has that classic Chablis minerality of crushed oyster shells and flint with a beautiful acid line which seems to be getting harder and harder to find. To us this is really a great quality Chablis with the price tag of Petit Chablis. SublimePale in colour, with notes of stone fruit on … more

From 5 parcels of vines planted between the 1960s and 1990s with an average age of 35 years old. Chambolle Musigny gets its reputation for perfume and elegance and this is textbook Chambolle yet also with admirable intensity and generosity. Very fine tannins and flows beautifully on the palate - very harmonious.

The Clos de Vougeot cultivated by Laurent Roumier is admirably placed in the famous grand cru terroir. More structured and tannic than Chambolle, Clos Vougeot owes its strength to its deeper and richer soils. Laurent Roumier’s vines from this cuvée are situated on the upper part of the Clos, on just over half a hectare. A longer ageing of 18 months in new barrels for half, improves the character of this well-balanced wine.

Like the rest of the 2015 Lignier-Michelot lineup, the Clos de la Roche combines beautiful soaring aromatics with beautiful pure fruit, and a savory sense of earthiness. The nose is explosively perfumed with beguiling aromas of ripe black cherry, red plum, violets, exotic spices, and roasted game. Supple palate shows impressive concentration, with dark fruit flavors, and layers of minerality on a long, driving finish. This has a all the elements to age effortlessly and should reward 10-15 years in … more

Louis Boillot Vieilles Vignes Moulin a Vent is made from the grapes of vines that are 50-60 year old vines. The fruit is an blend of four parcels from sites close together. On the nose it has impressive weight and structure more in the style of a red Burgundy.The palate is dense, pure and palate coating with nuances of raspberries and red cherries. It has great volume and tannic structure, as is often the case with Moulin-a-Vent.

"There is a lovely perfumed quality to the very fresh red currant and newly turned earth scents where a trace of the sauvage creeps in. I very much like the texture of the medium-bodied and lightly stony flavors that possess very good mid-palate density where a mild hint of rusticity creeps in on the compact, linear and impressively persistent finish. This is definitely Pommard in character but a relatively refined one.". 90-93, Outstanding. Burghound Issue #73

"Now that grandpère is 95 years old it is Louis who does this vineyard work here. Rich mid purple. The nose is clearly riper than Champonnets. It is really beautiful though, the age of the vines (planted 1912) has held it all together and there is an excellent natural acidity behind the complex sweet cherry fruit. Very long perfumed finish, adorable. Long silky finish." (93-95) Jasper Morris

"Very dense vibrant purple black, bristling with energy. Lively raspberry and fresh blackberry, still with this all-pervading sense of energy. The richest and densest Evocelles I have tasted but all kept perfectly in proportion and a very long fresh finish." (92-94). Jasper Morris

Burghound 'Louis Boillot's views are consistent with those of his wife Ghislaine Barthod.... I would add only that Boillot noted that he began the harvest on the 2nd of September in Volnay. As the scores and commentaries confirm, Boillot did fabulously well in 2015, indeed I would go so far as to say that they are among the best wines that I have ever seen from him. Moreover Beaujolais lovers should not ignore those wines either as all three are … more

'A surprisingly high-toned nose freely displays notes of cranberry, red raspberry, earth and a hint of anise character. There is excellent volume and richness to the bigger and more powerful flavors that are less refined but equally persistent on the youthfully austere and dusty but not rustic finale. This very firm effort is also clearly constituted for the long haul.' 91-93pts Burghound.

"A restrained and intensely floral-suffused nose is reticent to the point of being brooding and only
grudgingly provides glimpses of fresh dark berries and spice whiffs. The precise, highly energetic and
super-fine middleweight flavors also exude evident minerality on the moderately austere and equally long finale. I almost always prefer the d'Angerville Taillepieds to their Champans but that could well change in 2022 as this is outstanding."
