2011  Les Hautes Mazieres

Les Hautes Mazieres - "An attractively fresh and ripe nose of mostly red berry fruit liqueur aromas is nuanced by notes of violet and rose petal. The palate impression of the medium-bodied flavors is energetic, detailed and concentrated before concluding in a supple, round and delicious finish that displays a lovely vibrancy along with a touch of youthful austerity. A lovely villages." - BH Outstanding

2014  Pre Berceau

Pre Berceau - "The wines of Domaine Lorenzon make you rethink Mercurey. They convey a sense of terroir that is seldom shown so vividly in this realm of Burgundy. A third-generation winegrower of his family's estate in the old part of Mercurey (before the expansion of the AOC), Bruno Lorenzon took over the reins in 1997. In an often-overlooked region and a village that lacks any Grand Cru vineyards, 90% of his 11 acres are 1er Cru, including seven acres of the top 1er Cru vineyard, Champs Martin. All his vineyards have southern exposures and are riddled with the familiar limestone and clay of the Côte. Quite simply, Domaine Lorenzon transcends its terroir. The focused, intense Bruno produces focused, intense wines, tending to his farm as though he is manicuring a garden. Miniscule yields, organic farming and minimal intervention in the cellar are the norm here. Bruno's experience working for the Tonnellerie de Mercurey allows him to select and age his own wood, then build and toast his own barrels based on the characteristics of each cuvée and each vintage. His philosophy is that the oak, or any other component, should never stand out in the wine. The results are extremely elegant wines, with intensity and personality, light in color, yet rich with dry extract. The reds have silky tannins and bright, fresh fruit flavors mingling with savory character, while the whites have astonishing mineral length. Bruno's exacting attention to detail and excellence earned him a Winemaker of the Year Award in Burgundy from the highly respected Bourgogne Aujourd'hui."

2016  Les Tessons

"Markedly floral-inflected aromas include notes of honeysuckle, citrus and a pretty array of white orchard fruit scents. The medium-bodied flavors possess a really lovely mouth feel thanks to the abundant dry extract that coats the palate on the even more complex and ultra-saline finish. This is terrific for its level and highly recommended." - 91pts/Outstanding BH

2015  Savigny-les-Beaune Vieilles Vignes

"A wonderfully fresh nose combines a variety of red berry aromas with those of earth, violet and a hint of anise. The vibrant, rich and beautifully intense medium-bodied flavors possess fine mid-palate concentration as well as slightly better length on the more complex and well-balanced finale." - "Outstanding" from the Burghound

2015  Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru

"This also displays wood and menthol nuances on the spicy and attractively floral nose of plum and dark currant. The energetic middle weight flavors possess a sleek mouth feel with enough dry extract to both coat the palate and buffer the decidedly firm but not hard tannic spine shaping the balanced and impressively long finish. This is clearly built-to-age and will need at least 5 to 7 years of cellaring to resolve at least some of the structure to render the finish more pliable." - 91pts/Outstanding Burghound
