Decanter-logo

Several of our preferred winemakers have been singled out by Decanter magazine for their 2014 vintages!

 

Domaine d’Henri, Heritage, Fourchaume 1er Cru-93pts

“Bright citrus aroma and palate with some floral notes too. A lively texture with a mineral finish. Drink 2016-2020.”

 

Domaine Pierre Naigeon, Bonnes Mares Grand Cru-94pts

“Lovely nose of red fruit and spices, silky texture and savoury finish. A classy wine: elegant and not heavy. Drink 2018-2030.”

 

Clos de Tart, Grand Cru Monopole-96pts

“Vibrant, ripe blackberry plus delicate notes of rose, a gorgeous silky texture and sweet-spice finish. I tasted the seven parcels that make up this final wine and it’s clear there’s a sensational synergy in the blending. Drink 2022-2032.”

 

Domaine Chevalier Pere et Fils, Le Rognet et Corton, Corton Grand Cru-93pts

“Lush, black-fruit nose: dense and assertive. Rich, full-bodied, powerful and compact palate of bold, spicy cherry fruit. Shows complexity and heft, but needs time. Long. Drink 2018-2030.”

 

Domaine du Celliers aux Moines, Givry-90pts

“Oaky, very ripe cherry fruit. Lush, rounded, full-bodied and concentrated—tannic and structured. A serious Givry with weight and persistence. Long. Drink 2016-2022.”
