WS 89 (7/2018): Smoky cherry and berry fruit marks this juicy red. Vibrant and sleek, with a moderately long finish echoing smoke and spice details. Drink now through 2020. 830 cases made.
VM 88 (1/2017): (bottled in mid-August; vinified with 80% whole clusters): Lovely spicy Pinot aromas and flavors of raspberry, minerals, flowers and dark chocolate. A very fresh, juicy Bourgogne Rouge with terrific gulpability. Stephen Tanzer.
BH 88 (1/2017): (from 60+ year old vines based on the original pinot fin strain that is so highly regarded today.) A cool, pretty and pure nose reflects notes of various red berries, floral and a hint of earth. There is terrific energy and fine detail to the utterly delicious flavors that possess outstanding depth and length for a regional wine. Recommended. Drink 2018+. Outstanding Top Value! |

Chambolle Musigny |

WA 89 (6/2010): Smoky Latakia tobacco and bittersweet herbs accent the bright, fresh red berry fruit of Lachaux’s 2008 Chambolle-Musigny, with the decadent side of this appellation revealing itself in suggestions of forest floor, well-hung game, and faded lily inner-mouth perfume. Refined tannins underlie a finish tinged with smoke, fruit pit bitterness, and considerable intrigue for a village-level wine. I would expect this to provide admirable satisfaction for at least a half dozen years.
BH 87-89 (1/2010): Very mild reduction cannot suppress the otherwise lightly spiced high-toned and cool red pinot fruit that gives way to supple but precise flavors that possess ample verve and a touch of minerality on the dusty, long and linear finish. I very much like the mouth feel here and this has the potential to be a very good villages. Drink 2014+.
VM 87 (3/2011): Good medium red. Pure aromas of blackberry and blueberry lifted by mint and menthol. Juicy and supple, with moderate intensity and ripe, harmonious acidity. Nicely balanced wine with a savory finish featuring slightly dry tannins. Pascal Lachaux believes that 2009 will be a "mid-term vintage," while the 2008s "will be good early and late" and may never shut down. |

Latricieres Chambertin Grand Cru Very Lightly Bin-Soiled Label |
$2,800 |

|
| |
| BH 92-95 (1/2020): This too is very floral in character with its cool essence of red cherry with hints of the sauvage and earth lurking in the background. The super-sleek and lacy middle weight flavors appear to be built on a base of pungent minerality before terminating in a firm, serious and youthfully austere finale. This is a classic Latricières that will require extended patience if you wish to enjoy it at its peak. Drink 2033+. |

| BH 90-92 (1/2020): This too is quite firmly reduced and aromatically unreadable at present. More interesting are the sleek, vibrant and delineated middle weight flavors that display good salinity on the firm but balanced finale that betrays only a touch of rusticity. Drink 2028+. |

WA 90 (6/2010): Like most of the premier crus in this collection, 50% new wood was employed here and it’s a tribute to the wine, Lachaux, or tonnelier Stephane Chassin – perhaps to all collectively – that there isn’t any overt woodiness in evidence. The deeper, more clay-rich soils in this site vis-a-vis most of his others is, opines Lachaux’s, the reason for a slightly more rustic tanninity in his 2008 Vosne Romanee Les Chaumes. Ripe purple plum and blackberry are allied to alkaline and overtly chalky elements and shadowed by their distilled counterparts. Despite this wine’s prominent tannins, an unexpected sweetness and mouth-watering savor wells-up in its seriously sustained finish, convincing me that this will be worth cellaring for a few years and is likely to deliver fascination up to at least age 8. That said, one will need to bear in mind the tannins and overt minerality in pairing it, and those not enamored of Pinot’s dark side or of unapologetic tannins will be less impressed than am I.
VM 90 (4/2011): Deep red with ruby tones. Complex aromas of dark berries, flowers and spices, complemented by sweet oak and lifted by a peppery nuance. Not a fleshy wine but juicy, firm and aromatic, with lovely balancing acidity giving the wine vibrancy. Not the last word in concentration but finishes with sweet tannins and very good length. Pascal Lachaux noted that in most of his premier and grand crus, he made more wine in 2008 than in either 2009 or 2007.
BH 89-92 (1/2010): A more complex and, not surprisingly, notably spicier nose of layered red and blue pinot fruit with plum and violet nuances that complement well the rich, full and concentrated medium-bodied flavors that are on the somber side today before culminating in a firmer and more obviously structured finish that delivers excellent length. This should improve for up to a decade. Drink 2016+. Sweet Spot Outstanding! |
