(6x75cl) 2016Wine Advocate (94+)
The 2016 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Ruchottes is superb, wafting from the glass with aromas of Anjou pear, iodine, tangerine oil and wet stones, subtly framed by a delicate touch of new wood. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with excellent concentration, incisive acids and a long, precise finish. This is more old-fashioned than the 2014 rendition, and if that wine resembles the domaine's 2010, this has more affinities with the 2008.Inc. TAX€5,044.38 -
(1x75cl) 2017Burghound (93)
Outstanding There is a vaguely phenolic character (think olive oil nuances) to the ripe mix of both white and yellow orchard fruit, soft wood and pretty spice wisps. There is excellent volume and particularly so for the vintage to the medium-bodied and exceptionally rich flavors that are at once caressing yet powerful while delivering fine length and outstanding complexity on the clean and markedly dry finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This youthfully austere effort is clearly built-to-age and in contrast to some of the prior wines, I would not be inclined to drink this young.Inc. TAX€567.08 -

(Outstanding) Smoky and nicely fresh aromas speak mainly of petrol, citrus blossom, spice and a discreet hint of wood influence. There is fine energy to the fluid, round and delicious middle weight flavors that possess average density but excellent punch and power before terminating in a markedly bitter lemon rind and noticeably warm finale. This is very 2018 in style as one can "feel" the sunshine and a wine that is going to need at least some bottle age to better harmonize as it seems somewhat awkward at present. With that said, the track record of this wine is so good that I wouldn't care to bet against it rounding into form with a few years of keeping.Inc. TAX€3,794.92 -

Here too there is just enough reduction to push the underlying fruit to the background but it's not so heavy as to obscure the fact that it's ripe with white fleshed fruit and just a touch of oak. The super-sleek, delicious and vibrant flavors are presently relatively compact on the agreeably dry finish that flashes a touch of warmth. The oak does reappear, and this is mildly awkward today so I would suggest allowing this at least a few years to integrate its wood and better harmonize.Inc. TAX€2,278.38 -

(6x75cl) 2017Vinous (89-92)
Captivating nose combines white fruits, mint and menthol, lifted by powdered stone and a floral topnote. More saline than the foregoing samples, conveying a dry but round umami character and notes of minerals and menthol. Less open than the Boudriotte, with its substantial alcohol supported by flavor intensity. (13.7% alcohol)Inc. TAX€3,187.68 -

White Burgundy offers a lot to wine lovers. Its numerous appellations and winemakers really exhibit the breadth and quality of styles that Chardonnay can achieve; from Puligny-Montrachet with its gentle floral beauty and style to Meursault's rich, buttery and savory character. You can return to Burgundy vintage after vintage and still learn and explore.
