Introducing the inimitable Benedicte & Stephane Tissot Arbois Chardonnay Mailloche 2018. This esteemed wine originates from the Arbois region of Jura, France, renowned for its mineral-rich limestone and fossil-infused marl soils; a unique terroir that imparts distinct characteristics to the grapes. Each vineyard parcel is vinified separately, following biodynamic principles - an approach that Benedicte & Stephane Tissot uphold to retain the purest expression of Chardonnay, emulating the nature's rhythm. After a meticulous manual harvest, the wine is matured for two years in old oak barrels to develop levels of complexity, retaining its intrinsic acidity while adding smoothness to the palate. The result is an extraordinarily balanced offering, with a rich bouquet of honeysuckle, ripe quince, and nuanced mineral notes. Perfectly embodying its terroir, Benedicte & Stephane Tissot Arbois Chardonnay Mailloche 2018 is indisputably a wine of great stature for discerning connoisseurs. |

Vinous (93-95)(not racked; from a single parcel of vines on pure white soil on the Morey-Saint-Denis side of the cru, which was barely touched by frost according to Leroux): Healthy dark red. Captivating lift to the sappy aromas of maraschino cherry, licorice and exotic herbs. Dense, vigorous wine with terrific medicinal reserve and punch to its dark fruit, licorice and mineral flavors. Youthfully imploded in a classic Bonnes-Mares manner but not rigid or hard. A wine with outstanding finishing energy and length, built for a slow evolution in bottle--and a classic expression of its terroir. (Incidentally, Leroux is looking to supplement this fruit source with another piece of Bonnes-Mares.) |

Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet, with a mixture of red and black fruit, undergrowth and dried leaves. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins. It's quite linear for a Bonnes-Mares and has a welcome, bitter edge on the finish. Fine, but a bit gawky. |

Vinous (91-94)Spicy nose is going through a slightly oxidative phase (this wine is lower in total sulfur today than the Abbaye de Morgeot and Les Baudines). Very rich and pliant but salty and hard to assess today, with its peachy yellow fruits in the background. This densely packed, nutty wine finishes with terrific grip, excellent length and a powerful impression of dry extract. These vines are 50 to 60 years of age and struggling, Leroux told me. There's barely 20 centimeters of topsoil here and the vines don't look healthy but they produce very concentrated grapes, added Leroux, who refers to this wine as his baby grand cru. (13% alcohol) |

Vinous (96)The 2015 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru has an immediately seductive, extremely pure bouquet of bright red fruit, strawberry and cranberry; hints of blueberry surface with aeration. The oak is very well integrated, and with continued aeration in the glass, the raspberry component becomes more expressive. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit encased by grippy, slightly firm tannins. This is a very serious Grand Cru, extraordinarily focused and full of tension; the mouth still tingles 60 seconds after it has exited. A consummate expression of a great Burgundy vintage. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. |

Vinous (90-93)(Leroux lost one-third of the crop here but noted that the wall around Clos Vougeot gave his vines some protection): Dark red. Inviting ripe perfume of cherry, raspberry and licorice. Distinctly fatter and sweeter in the mouth than the Echézeaux, conveying a more pliant texture and lovely perfume as well as a strong mineral character. Then tougher on the back end, finishing with substantial chewy, tongue-dusting tannins and an impression of medicinal reserve. |
