VM 89 (1/2018): Bright medium red. Lively perfume of raspberry, blood orange and flowers. Very pretty, leanish wine with excellent intensity and definition to its flavors of red fruits and flowers. This delightful Bourgogne includes a lot of Beaune villages and premier cru fruit, as production in these vineyards was too tiny to merit separate bottlings. Leroux made 10,000 bottles of this wine, and it's one to seek out.
WA 88 (12/2017): The 2016 Bourgogne Rouge was aged in wooden tank, bottled mid-October and includes a potpourri of vineyards from here, there and everywhere that had been frosted. This has a delightful bouquet with vivid red cherry and strawberry fruit that is well defined and probably more like a village cru. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh red berry fruit mixed with bay leaf and a touch of black tea. I was smitten by this modest generic red and I bet it will be good value for money.
BH 87 (4/2018): A pretty and very fresh nose is composed by notes of both red and dark berries and soft earth wisps. The sleek and delicious middle weight flavors possess good volume and a relatively refined mouth feel before concluding in a mildly austere and lingering finale. This is really quite good and worth considering. (Drink starting 2020). |

Batard Montrachet Grand Cru |

WA 90 (10/2017): Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, Leroux's 2014 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a powerful nose with much more tropical scents than I would expect from this vintage: mango and passion fruit, a touch of orange rind with time. The palate is rich on the entry with that mango/passion fruit theme continuing and the wood nicely integrated, but it just does not quite deliver the mineralité or tension you would expect. Not bad at all, but here it was surpassed by some of its peers.
BH 93-95 (6/2016): Relatively heavy reduction again renders the nose tough to judge. On the plus side there is terrific volume and mid-palate concentration to the big-bodied flavors that possess unusually good refinement in the context of what is typical for Bâtard and this is particularly so for the racy and tightly wound finale. Like the CC this beauty is going to require extended bottle aging but should very much be worth the wait. (Drink starting 2026).
VM 92-95 (9/2015): Healthy pale yellow. Very ripe, deeply pitched aromas of apricot and subtle spices. Highly concentrated and plush, offering a high-wire act of sweet fruit and brisk acidity. This rather powerful Batard is going to require time in bottle to harmonize fully. Stephen Tanzer. |
