Burghound (95)This is initially quite fragrant and expressive but the longer that the wine sat in the glass the more it progressively shut down and a great deal of swirling was necessary to liberate the mostly red berry fruit aromas that are liberally laced with a broad range of spice and floral elements, in particular rose petal. The broad-shouldered flavors possess a beguiling texture even though the supporting structure makes itself felt very quickly on the firm but not hard finish that goes on and on. While this is still clearly extremely young, 2006 is one of the few vintages of the DRC Richebourg with less than 20 years of age that could be reasonably approached now, though I stress that there is still considerable upside development potential remaining. In a word, terrific. Tasted five times in the several years with consistent results. |

Wine Spectator (96)Seductive and open from barrel about a year ago, this is more reticent now, especially aromatically. Nonetheless, there's richness and a slow buildup of berry and cherry flavors, which turn more refined and satiny as this lingers on the finish. |

Wine Spectator (95)A touch of a vegetal element to the sweet cherry and woodsy spice flavors and a sinewy texture mark this red. It seems closed down now, with the structure dominating, but there's a smoldering intensity and energy that powers the long aftertaste. Offers both elegance and depth. Be patient. Best from 2014 through 2028. 110 cases imported. -BS |

Vinous (93)The 2006 Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses 1er Cru is a vintage that I have not encountered previously. There is certainly fine intensity on the nose with raspberry and Morello cherry scents, appearing later crushed stone and rose petal notes. That Amoureuses sensuality really comes through. The palate is smooth and velvety with fine tannins. It is not the most complex Les Amoureuses that Christophe Roumier has ever produced, but certainly one of the most drinkable (however banal that reads.) Wonderful, though I would be inclined to drink it in the near future. Tasted at Xmas lunch at Trinity restaurant. |

Vinous (90)Moderately saturated medium red. Brown spices and oak on the nose. Then pure, dense and complex on the palate, with spicy red fruit flavors and a rather silky texture for the vintage and for this bottling. Comes across as more vivid than the Combottes. This dense, sweet wine has the stuffing to buffer its tannins. Classy, vivid Morey-easier to taste today than the 2007 version. Excellent for this cuvee |

2006 was a marvellous year for white Burgundy. The wines excellent structure and more forward aromas than the 2005’s. They can be enjoyed young or considerable aged with is often the mark of a great wine. 2006 red Burgundy’s development has impressed and surprised. This was a vintage which allowed winemakers to really make their stylistic impressions on the wine. An interesting year for Burgundy enthusiasts.
