BH 92-94 (1/2019): Interestingly, this possesses a similar nose to that of the Grande Complication save that it is more reserved. The middle weight and more mineral-inflected flavors are not as dense however though they do flash better power and driving on the youthfully austere, compact and very firm finale. This is very much of an introverted Riche at present and extended patience will be required if you wish to experience this at its peak. Drink starting 2032. |

Chambolle Musigny Vieilles Vignes  |
$69 |
8 |
|
|
WA 91-93 (12/2016): The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes has a very pure and elegant bouquet with blueberry and blackberry fruit, fine delineation and focus, the 20% new oak nicely integrated. The palate is very well balanced with fine acidity, a mixture of red and black fruit infusing with superb mineralité, sporting great precision on the finish. I think the decision not to use stems here really benefits this excellent, energetic wine. Check it out. Drink between 2018-2030. |

Gevrey Chambertin La Justice  |
$69 |
2 |
|
|
WA 87-89 (12/2015): The 2014 Gevrey-Chambertin la Justice, from 35-year-old vines and matured in 40% new oak, has a delectable, floral nose in the making -- very precise with strawberry pastille and a touch of orange zest. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, sappy red berry fruit. There is fine density here, quite "solid" in the mouth with a gentle grip towards the finish. This will benefit from three or four years in bottle in order to lose its sinew. |

Morey St. Denis En la Rue de Vergy  |
$69 |
5 |
|
|
WA 90-92 (12/2016): The 2015 Morey Saint Denis En La Rue de Vergy comes from an exchange of grapes with Virgile Lignier at Domaine Lignier-Michelot. It includes no whole bunch. It has a crisp, well-defined bouquet with blackberry, boysenberry and blood orange aromas, nicely defined and quite focused. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, fresh and vibrant with that blood orange note continuing, a gentle grip on the slightly confit finish with a dash of white pepper lending an edge. Very fine, especially for a village cru. Drink between 2018-2028. BH 88-90 (1/2017): The elevated position of the vineyard is evident as this is much cooler than any of the preceding wines with its super-fresh array of red and dark berries, spice and wet stone nuances. There is also excellent energy and a bit more obvious acidity to the racy and well-detailed flavors that possess a sleek mouth feel and ample minerality on the saline finish where hints of warmth and wood appear. Drink starting 2021. |

Vosne Romanee  |
$79 |
3 |
|
|
WA 85-87 (12/2015): The 2014 Vosne-Romanée Village has an elegant bouquet, very pure with wild strawberry and limestone scents percolating through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannin, fleshy red cherry and strawberry fruit, with vanilla extract towards the finish from the new oak (40%...perhaps here just a little too much?). There is just an unnecessary spearmint note on the aftertaste at the moment. |

|
|
VM 88 (1/2025): The 2017 Bourgogne Rouge Les Argillières is maturing nicely in bottle with open mulberry and raspberry fruit, loam and light tobacco scents. The palate is quite savory on the entry, nicely balanced with a touch of black pepper on the finish. Perfect to drink now. Drink between 2024-2026. Neal Martin. |

|
|
VM 88-90 (12/2021): The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Herbues, which was due to be bottled within several weeks, has a delightful bouquet with red cherries and crushed strawberry scents. The palate is a little reduced on the entry, fleshy with a bit of wood on the finish that will be subsumed with time. Drink between 2024-2034. Neal Martin. |

|
VM 90 (12/2021): The 2020 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Blanc La Corvée de Bully had been bottled, including 20% Pinot Blanc like the previous year. It has a lovely nose: rosewater, Clementine and honeysuckle. The palate is well balanced with a waxy texture, fine acidity, quite precise with a slightly candied, pear-tinged finish. Delicious. Drink between 2021-2025. Neal Martin. |

Coteaux Champenois Cuvee des Grands Cotes Vieilles Vignes Rouge Champagne Bin-Soiled Label; Slightly Depressed Cork |
$249 |
1 |
|
|
VM 91 (11/2016): From an old-vine parcel in Ambonnay, Egly's 2014 Coteaux Champenois Ambonnay Rouge is about as good as it gets for still Pinot Noir in Champagne. Sweet red cherry, tobacco, spice, licorice and leather all flesh out in the glass. A wine of notable concentration and depth, the 2014 sets the bar for what is possible with still Pinot in Champagne. The new oak has been beautifully integrated and all the elements are in the right place. Drink between 2016-2020. Antonio Galloni. |

La Closerie Extra Brut Les Beguines Champagne  |
$275 |
1 |
|
|
VM 93 (11/2021): The 2018 Extra-Brut Les Beguines is a gorgeous Champagne from Jérôme Prévost. In this release, the Beguines is a bit more ethereal than it can be. There is plenty of Meunier character, with dried orchard fruit, spice and hazelnut flavors that are nicely lifted. This edition is 90% 2018 plus 10% reserve wines, all done in the 600-liter casks that Prévost favors. What the 2018 lacks in depth it more than makes up for with its charm and accessibility. Dosage is 2.5 grams per liter. Antonio Galloni. |

Blanc de Noirs VV/R20 Champagne  |
$199 |

|
|
VM 93 (5/2022): The 2020 Blanc de Noirs Val Vilaine is pretty rich and heady. The Val Vilaine is typically pretty appealing in its youth; this is a rare vintage I would be tempted to cellar, such is its richness. Dried pear, spice, crushed flowers and chamomile are amplified. I don't think I have ever tasted a Val Vilaine with this much sheer density. What a wine! Disgorged: 2022. Drink between 2022-2032. Antonio Galloni. |

Barolo Castelletto  |
$325 |

|
|
WA 95+ (6/2022): Here's an exciting new addition to the growing Comm. G.B. Burlotto family of wines. The 2018 Barolo Castelletto opens to a soft and delicate inner core that is framed by wild cherry, licorice and rose. The wine is beautifully tapered and streamlined on the palate, with very polished and silky tannins. It is great taste to this effort by the "King of Verduno," (a.k.a. proprietor Fabio Alessandria) and the structured fruit from Monforte d'Alba. VM 94 (2/2022): The 2018 Barolo Castelletto is a new wine in this range from a parcel plant in 1973. It opens with soaring aromatics that then reappear on the palate in the wine's broad, ample feel. Sage, mint, leather, plum, lavender tobacco and espresso build in a sensual, aromatically beguiling Barolo that captures all of the pedigree of this Monforte site. Fabio Alessandria told me he was intrigued to try his hand making wine from a new site and village, hence the family's decision to buy this parcel in Monforte rather than bolstering their holdings closer to home. The debut vintage is certainly impressive. Antonio Galloni. |

Barolo Cannubi  |
$109 |

|
|
WA 91 (9/2018): From one of the best-performing vineyard sites in Barolo (especially in balanced years such as this), the 2013 Barolo Cannubi is my favorite expression among the three cru expressions I tasted from Borgogno this year. This wine is forthcoming and direct in terms of its aromatic performance. You still get some of those Indian or Asian spice nuances that I discovered in the other wines from this storied estate. Put this wine aside for the next ten years. Drink between 2020-2035. VM 85 (2/2018): The 2013 Barolo Cannubi is another wine in this range that lacks freshness, nuance or anything that resembles finesse. There is no Cannubi character whatsoever. Drink between 2018-2021. Antonio Galloni. |

Chianti Classico Riserva  |
$35 |
2 |
|
|
VM 92+ (2/2019): The 2015 Chianti Classico Riserva is bold, ample and powerful, with a real sense of breadth in this vintage. The tannins need time to soften, as the wine is a bit burly at this stage. This is another stellar release for a wine that routinely overachieves its peer group and price. Dense and packed, with tremendous structure, the 2015 has a lot to say. But readers will have to be patient, as it is very clearly early days for this wine. Drink between 2020-2035. Antonio Galloni. WA 90 (10/2018): The 2015 Chianti Classico Riserva opens to dark color richness and savory aromas. There is black fruit at the core of this wine, but the aromatic contours also embrace fleeting tones of smoked bacon, dark spice and garden potting soil. You feel the heat and exuberance of the vintage in the mouth, especially where soft fruit fiber is contrasted against the natural energy and acidic brightness of the Sangiovese grape (blended with 10% Canaiolo and Colorino in this case). Drink between 2018-2026. |

Barolo Marcenasco  |
$54 |

|
|
VM 92 (11/2019): Ratti's 2015 Barolo Marcenasco is very pretty in its 50th anniversary. Soft, pliant and inviting, the Marcenasco captures all the best the vintage has to offer. Pretty floral and spiced notes add nuance to a core of sweet red berry fruit. Medium in body and racy, with lovely persistence, the 2015 has so much to offer. This is one of the finer recent versions of the Marcenasco I can remember tasting. The 2015 is flat out delicious. Another year or two in bottle will help the tannins soften a bit further. Drink between 2020-2030. Antonio Galloni. WA 92 (6/2019): This is a beautifully fully and generous expression from a vineyard that has historically been farmed by the Ratti family of La Morra. The Marcenasco cru is located directly under the winery, and although it is not in the official list of MGA crus, the vineyard name is registered to this winery. In the 2015 Barolo Marcenasco, you get the full fruit and dark berry nuances of the vintage with pretty softness and approachable, supple tannins. This wine celebrated its 50th anniversary (1965-2015) with this vintage. Drink between 2020-2035. |
