This exceptional Grand Cru is a reflection of the limestone-rich soils of Montrachet, revealing depth of flavour that persistently engages the palate with elegant notes of citrus peels, sliced apples, flowers and creamy oak.

Aged in French oak barrels and bottled carefully with minimal filtration, this gem of a product stands as one of the exemplary expressions of the revered Montrachet appellation.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-97)The Domaine has two plots of Montrachet, lucky people, the one on the Chassagne side being planted in 1945. A fair proportion is sold in bulk to certain regular customers but a few barrels are kept for their own use. There is one new barrel from each of their five tonneliers (plus a couple in older wood) and we had great fun tasting each of the new barrels. There were some taste differences: a touch of coconut from Cadus, sweeter fruit from Séguin Moreau, elegance from Tremeaux, more exotic from Rousseau and perhaps more fascinating was where the fruit sat on the palate: in the middle from Cadus, evenly spread from Rousseau and with a surge to the back from Chassin, which offered the most complete experience of the five. Talking of complete, here is the note on the combined blend, including the older wood: Fresh pale yellow gold colour with a light green inflection. This is followed by a delicious complex and balanced nose, with many layers, a clear sense of distinction, a burst of sunshine fruit at the front of the palate which is then maintained through to an even finish. Balanced and juicy with a long, perfumed aftertaste. |

Wine Advocate (92)An impressive Chardonnay from the limestone soils of Limoux, the 2016 Grand Vin Blanc could rival a decent Meursault. It's buttery and toasty up front, but it backs those oaky notes with plenty of plump pear and melon fruit. Medium-bodied, it's intense, concentrated and long, finishing with bright citrus and a lingering note of pencil shavings. |

Barone di Villagrande, Contrada Villagrande, Etna Rosso 2018 exemplifies the pinnacle of Etna’s volcanic terroir. Crafted by the esteemed Barone di Villagrande, this wine originates from the Contrada Villagrande vineyard nestled on Mount Etna’s fertile slopes.

Following a careful hand-harvest, the grapes undergo gentle fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve their vibrant flavours. The wine is then aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, imparting subtle complexity and a refined structure. On the palate, it reveals enticing aromas of red cherries, raspberries, and a hint of smoky earthiness, culminating in a balanced and elegant finish.

Vinous (88)Freshly cut flowers, sweet spices and dark red cherries are all woven together in the 2011 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Castello di Brolio. Layered and silky on the palate, the 2011 offers good balance, even if the oak is a bit pronounced. Overall, this is a solid, if not particularly exciting wine. The Gran Selezione designation appears only on the back label, which strikes me as a curious choice. |
