France Burgundy

96 pts. James Suckling A very classic Corton-Charlemagne that’s very powerful, but very cool and fresh with a super mineral personality. Concentrated but finely etched palate with great acidity that drives the very long, stony finish. Better from 2021.

This 100% domaine wine comes from the Macon village of Uchizy in southern Burgundy. It is a fresh and juicy unoaked Chardonnay, with layers of apple, citrus and earth. Crisp and clean with a refreshing finish and a touch of mineral. Outstanding White Burgundy value!

90 points - Natalie MacClean Lively aromatics of gala apple, honeydew and lingering white floral blossoms. Flavours repeat on the palate with apple and notes of freshly cut pear and melon with a saline infused finish repeating with delicate granite stone minerality. Light bodied with a crisp, dry finish. This would pair nicely with fresh oysters alongside a delicate mignonette and soft creamy...

Winemaker Notes Domaine du Colombier Chablis Petit Chablis comes from Chardonnay grapes grown in the AOC Chablis vineyards, with south-south east exposure; the wine during vinification sees only steel. This is a bright, crisp wine with a pretty lemon, limestone and slightly floral nose. The palate is citrusy, mostly lemon backed up with some peach, green apple and more minerality. Good developing...

90 points Wilifred Wong The 2018 Domaine Faiveley Mercurey is enticing and bright. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with pleasing aromas and flavors of ripe red fruit and mineral notes. Pair it with lightly-spiced, grilled lamb chops.

Pinot Blanc, a very aromatic grape, gives pronounced floral and fruity notes to this wine while the Chardonnay brings a touch of finesse. The 20% of the final cuvée that was oak aged contributes great texture and complexity to the final wine.

Winemaker Notes Clean pale yellow color and green reflections. A nice brilliance. The nose is fresh and fruity, ripe and round with discrete vanilla and brioche scents. On the mouth, the wine is dense and rich, fresh and subtle with a good length and finesse. Overall, the wine is nicely balanced, fresh, elegant and with a long finish.

Winemaker Notes Bright ruby red color. Intense aromas of wild strawberries and raspberry, slightly peppery notes. A juicy wine with silky tannins. From a very respected French/American negociant.

Description & Tasting : The color is gold with fairly deep hints of green, Macon-Vinzelles wine is dry, full bodied and warm as well as fruity with a floral and vegetal nose. It retains all its charm if drunk within two or three years of being harvested.

Grand Ardèche has a brilliant straw-yellow hue. It reveals an intense nose with aromas of toast, vanilla and acacia flower. The mouth is round, powerful with a fresh almond finish. Nice persistence.

Year in/ year out this wine represents impeccable quality and unsurpassed value in the Bourgogne wine category. Why is this one so much better than the rest you ask? Well as a matter of fact it is because the grape source is Puligny Montrachet and Meursault. Typically this quality from Burgundy will set you back $50 bottle minimum and most times much more. Under the supervision of renowned...

90 points Wine Enthusiast. The minerality typical of this appellation appears strongly in this rich wine. With vanilla and spice flavors and tight citrus as well as white stone fruits, this wine is still young. It will be at its best from 2022.
