Château De La Tour Grand Cru Clos Vougeot Cuvée Classique
The Cuvée Classique is drawn predominantly from the Domaine's vines on the mid-slope of the Clos but also plots on the lower and upper parts of the vineyard. While there's certainly more depth and fruit intensity here, there's also more detail and clarity and exceptionally fine, powdery tannins that coat the tongue and drive the very long finish.
Château De La Tour Grand Cru Clos Vougeot Vieilles Vignes
The Vieilles Vignes comes from a selection of the oldest vines in the Clos, mostly planted in 1910 and situated mid-slope, right in the heart of the vineyard. These ancient vines yield only two to three tiny bunches of grapes per vine in a good year. The net result is a Clos de Vougeot of unique intensity, breadth of flavour, complexity and structural power. Interestingly, there are a number of Pinot Beurot (Gris) vines inter-planted in these parcels which are harvested and vinified with the Pinot Noir.
Comte Armand Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru
Comte Armand is one of the leading and best estates in Pommard. This wine rivals Bordeaux in terms of intensity and concentration. To many it will always have an underlying elegance and class.
Domaine Pousse d'Or Chambolle Musigny Charmes 1er Cru
The Domaine de La Pousse d'Or is distinguished by its 5 grands crus, 11 premier crus including 3 monopolies, in Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits. Offering you the purest expression of exceptional terroirs has been the Domaine's obsession for centuries. Today, work in the vineyards in biodynamics, the long and gentle bio-controlled vinification, accompanied by aging on lees, contribute to the exceptional balance, finesse and richness, of the estate.
Charton & Trebuchet Vosne Romanee
This vineyard is located in the heart of the Côte de Nuits, just above the village of Vosne Romanee, which is responsible for some of the most sought after red wines in the world and arguably, the most sublime expressions of Pinot Noir can be found on this land.Traditional vinification, temperature controlled cold maceration lead to a long fermentation during which pigeages and pumping over are performed. Aged in oak barrels for 10 to 12 months, the resulting wine is complex, aromatic, exquisite. On the palate, this Pinot Noir is true to form: elegance, power, persistent lenght and ripe tannins. The wine is well-balanced and complex.Pair with poultry or game, moderate to strong cheeses or simply enjoy its full brilliance unaccompanied.
Chartron & Trebuchet Morey Saint Denis
The village of Morey-St-Denis lies between the villages of Chambolle-Musigny and Gevrey-Chambertin, and its wines are sometimes described as being firmer than Chambolle, lighter than Gevrey. Bright crimson with purple hues, with flavours of red cherries, blueberries, baking spices and a dusting of nutmeg from quality French oak. Well-structured on the palate, supported by chalky, rounded tannins. A wine of outstanding value from this highly regarded Cote de Nuits commune.
