2015  Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos du Fonteny

Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos du Fonteny - "A deeply pitched yet wonderfully elegant nose is comprised by densely fruited aromas of red cherry, cassis, earth, violet and sandalwood. There is a terrific sense of underlying vibrancy to the refined, cool and restrained flavors that possess a taut muscularity on the impressively persistent, well-balanced and mildly austere finale. This is definitely built-to-age and will require at least 6 to 8 years but reward up to 15 or so. In a word, excellent." - 90-93pts/Outstanding Burghound

2014  

Deep, almost-inky garnet core, with purple reflections at the rim. The aromatics, too, reflect a riper vintage, with notes of black cherry, black plum, wet violets, a hint of licorice, black pepper, and forest floor. Nearly full-bodied and quite seductive to sip now, it remains well-framed by a smoky, stony mineral quality and balancing acidity.

2013  1er Cru Santenay Gravieres

"A more elegant nose offers notes of ripe yet cool red currant that display both earth and floral nuances. Here too there is a lovely mouth-feel to the finer middle weight flavors that exhibit a hint of minerality that carries over to the balanced, complex and lingering finish where a hint of rusticity appears just at the end." - Burghound

2016  L'Empreinte

L'Empreinte -- A harmonious blend of the Joblot's 1er Cru vineyards in the ampitheatre of Givry, average vine age of 35 years.

2015  1er Cru Les Rugiens Bas

"There is just enough wood present to mention, framing the cool, pure and beautifully complex dark currant, red cherry, spice and whiff of the sauvage. As is usually the case with Rugiens, the big-bodied flavors still manage to be finer than those of a typical Chaponnières and notably more mineral-inflected while delivering superb depth and length. I very much like the mouth feel and this is both classy and stylish." - Burghound "Outstanding"

2015  Raisins Dores

Raisins Dores -- "An exuberantly fresh, ripe and spicy nose introduces fleshy, even juicy, flavors that possess good volume on the clean, delicious and nicely dry finish. This should drink well almost immediately." - 86-88pts Burghound

2017  Les Epenots

Les Epenots -- "Once again there are ample wood and menthol notes surrounding the more elegant nose of ripe red berries, spice and warm earth nuances. The caressing and delicious flavors are not as dense but they're definitely more refined and I particularly like the texture of the impressively persistent finish. This needs to add depth but it seems like a relatively sure bet that it will. Lovely." - 91-93pts/Sweet Spot Burghound

2015  Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts

Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts -- "This too is notably ripe yet manages to remain wonderfully fresh with its super-spicy aromas of red currant, cherry, raspberry and lavender. There is terrific verve and power to the big-bodied, mineral-driven and concentrated flavors that deliver superb depth and length on the almost painfully intense finale. However despite all of the concentration and overt muscularity this very, very firmly structured effort remains faultlessly well-balanced though note well that this is going to require an extended snooze in a cool cellar. This is reference standard Malconsorts." - 95pts/Outstanding from the Burghound

2015  Romanee Saint-Vivant Grand Cru

Romanee Saint-Vivant Grand Cru -- "An overtly floral, elegant and airy nose displays a huge array of spice elements on the red currant, cherry, tea, hoisin and lavender scents. The super-refined middle weight flavors possess a gorgeously sophisticated mouth feel that is at once silky yet packing plenty of punch that continues onto the harmonious finish where the persistence lasts for several minutes. I was knocked out by the palate impression because when RSV is "on", the finesse is unmatched by any of the other grands crus in Burgundy. This is quite simply a 'wow' wine." - 94-97pts/Don't Miss! from the Burghound
