FRANCE: CHAMPAGNE - NON-VINTAGE CUVEE
Size750MLVintage2014SKU4041
This is a terrific Champagne with great balance, flavor, and style, and it is a real value. Pale yellow in color, the wine has a lovely perfume with hints of peach and citrus and faint floral nuances accented by a kiss of vanilla. Creamy and very flavorful, this is a Champagne that is very harmonious showing subtle hints of peach, citrus, and spice.

This is a wellbalanced wine with powerful tannins and equally ripe black fruits. Richness and concentration are showing well, with acidity and the fruits partnering with the structure.Domaine Lignier-Michelot Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes

This is also notably ripe with darker fruit aromas of plum, cassis and black cherry. There is excellent phenolic maturity to the velvety and solidly well-concentrated flavors that possess an opulent mouth feel before terminating in a sappy and relatively finely detailed finish.

Serene on the palate with the suppleness brought by the80% Meunier, and the breed of Chardonnay which brings tension and liveliness. It's a very greedy profile and it is drunk like whey, the fruit is omnipresent with the pear in particular, all with a very good balance. Intense finish where chardonnay takes over with beautiful bitters, over a correct length.Domaine Georges Lombriere Chateaneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Marie

A chocolate and lightly spicy aroma. An elegant wine with nice freshness and a dynamic structure when in the mouth, were Grenache dominates but is supported by Syrah and Mourvedre. Mature wine, spicy without relying on alcohol, light aromas of black fruit and pepper. Mellow tannins give CuvFrancois Seconde Champagne Grand Cru Brut

Toasty pear, melon and nectarine aromas are complemented by yellow rose and sweet butter. Chewy and broad on entry, then tighter in the mid-palate, offering pear skin and pit fruit flavors and a hint of ginger. Closes smoky and very long, with lingering spiciness and a hint of redcurrant.Georges Chicotot Nuits St Georges 1er Cru "Les Charmottes
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - NUITS-SAINT-GEORGES
Size750MLVintage2018SKU28602
Lifted aromas of raspberry and red fruits, overlaying a rich but delicate palette of earth, coffee & cinnamon. Very elegant. On the palate, this is quite racy and fresh; perhaps a touch thin in places, reflecting the vintage. A lovely wine overall, should benefit from a few more years in bottle, and I suspect this would be a knockout in warmer vintages.Les Tourelles de Longueville

The density and beauty to this second wine are superb with a rich palate and round and velvety tannins. Lots of blackberries and blackcurrants. Wow. 95pts James SucklingDomaine Georges Lignier Morey St Denis 1er Cru "Clos des Ormes

Positioned between Gevrey and Chambolle, Morey Saint Denis produces delicious, long lived wines of complexity and length. None more so than this, its top Premier Cru, crafted by a fine family estate. Well structured with earthy, leafy, cherry notes.Domaine Chezeaux Nuits-St.-Georges Charbonnieres VV
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - POMMARD
Size750MLVintage2017SKU26104
The nose is rich, with a mix of crushed strawberry, perfumed florals, dark soil tones and hints of oak. On the palate, soft textures, showing pure red fruits with energetic acidity adding lift. This is very pretty and remarkably balanced for the vintage.Jehan Emonin Beaune Greves1er Cru
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - BEAUNE
Size750MLVintage2020SKU25022
A slightly fresher nose is composed of liqueur-like aromas of black raspberry, lilac, violet and whisper of warm earth. There is a better sense of verve to the detailed and relatively powerful medium-bodied flavors that possess fine mid-palate concentration while delivering better length and balance on the mouth coating finale. I very much like the palate impression as it's at once generous yet serious.

Massively complex with wild aromas of stone fruit, peaches and apricots, as well as apple and pear notes. The palate has good correspondence to the nose with a stony structure and a deep rich finish.Domaine Bertrand et Axelle Machard de Gramont Nuits-St.-Georges "Aux Allots

Notes of pepper, earth and red berry fruit liqueur combine with a pretty floral hint. There is fine intensity to the utterly delicious medium weight flavors that possess a lovely sense of underlying tension before terminating in a clean, focused and lingering finish that flashes only a touch of rusticity.Marie Courtin Champagne Resonance Extra Brut
FRANCE: CHAMPAGNE - NON-VINTAGE CUVEE
Size750MLVintage2019SKU29221
Rich and ample on the palate, with terrific freshness and verve, the Resonance is another gorgeous and deeply expressive Champagne from Dominique Moreau. The orchard fruit, crushed stone and floral notes are beautifully focused throughout. The saline-drenched finish only adds to the wine's considerable appeal. 92pts Antonio GalloniAlain Voge Cornas Vieilles Vignes

Ripe and compact, with a coiled-up core of blackberry and bitter cherry fruit that should unwind fully with time. Racy iron, savory and plum pit notes on the finish add cut and length. Lovely purity. 97pts Jeb DunnuckChateau Brane Cantenac Margaux
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - RED - OTHER
Size750MLVintage2019SKU28346
Matured entirely in new oak, it is in possession of an almost pixelated bouquet with beguiling blackberry, bilberry and crushed limestone aromas. I find this less austere than some vintages of Brane-Cantenac at this prenatal stage. The palate is silky smooth on the entry with filigree tannins, very harmonious, not a deep or powerful Margaux, yet very delineated. 97pts Meal Martin-Vinous MediaChateau Grand-Puy Lacoste Pauillac
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - RED - PAUILLAC
Size750MLVintage2019SKU28359
Initially the bouquet is tight and so I left my sample for 15-20 minutes to open. It rewards patience with a beguiling melange of pure blackberry, raspberry, crushed violet and pencil shavings, very focused and mineral-driven. The palate is medium-bodied with finely chiseled tannins. Compared to the robust, tannic GPL's of old, this is much more lithe and approachable, yet it still bears the DNA of this Pauillac estate. 97pts Vinous MediaDomaine Alain Burguet Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Favorites
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - GEVREY-CHAMBERTIN
Size750MLVintage2019SKU28655
A softly oaked nose consists of cool aromas of red currant, newly turned earth, humus and a whiff of the sauvage. There is a bit more volume and mid-palate concentration to the more mineral-inflected flavors that deliver depth and persistence on the balanced finale. This is a very good Gevrey villages that is well worth considering. Allen MeadowsDomaine Chezeaux Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru "Rue de Chaux
FRANCE: BURGUNDY - RED - POMMARD

This is a dark, powerful wine loaded with generous yet cool, inward fruit. It reveals superb length and an exciting, viscerally thrilling personality. The radiance of the fruit shines on the expressive finish. This is a beautifully complete, harmonious wine from Chezeaux.Ferraton Hermitage Rouge "Les Miaux

Size750MLVintage2015SKU24612
A blend from two communes; the alluvial Dionnieres and the pebbly Meal, (think Chapoutier) this wine has been treated to an extended maceration then 14 months in barrel. Notes of blueberry and creme de cassis dominate this powerful and fleshy wine; profound in texture and profoundly satisfying. 94pts Wine Enthusiast
