Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90-93)Deep red-ruby. Explosive, rather wild aromas of raspberry, smoke and earth. Lush, sweet and thick; voluptuous for this cuvee but with terrific sap. Really resounds on the back end, which features broad tannins and an impressively rich flavor of crushed raspberry. A superb showing. |

Vinous (92+)Good full red. Complex nose melds wild raspberry, tobacco and earth. Suave and fine-grained but youthfully subdued, with ripe balancing acidity giving the broad red fruit and soil flavors a sappy quality and very good snap. Best today on the rising finish, where the tannins are firm but fine and arrive late. A powerful wine but not hard. |

Vinous (90-92)Good medium red. Lovely floral lift to the sweet red cherry, berry, mineral and orange skin aromas. Very suave, pure and scented wine with the minerality and lift of a top Vosne-Romanee. Finishes long and gripping, with firm but supple tannins. A superb showing, and very much in the style of the best '06s. |

Vinous (93)Good full red. Complex nose offers black cherry, brown spices, minerals, rose petal and menthol. Silky-sweet and perfumed, with a captivating spicy perfume in the mouth. Quite elegantly styled, and yet there's power here too. Insidious spreading, sweet finish really saturates the palate and sticks around for a while. |

Wine Advocate (93)Smoky black tea, beef bouillon, raw venison, biter cherry pit and ripe blackberry make for a striking nose to Liger-Belair's 2009 Nuits-St.-Georges Les St.-Georges. Firm in feel, and with its dense meat and bitter-edged black fruit underlain by a sensation of crushed stone, this manages to avoid austerity – and, more remarkably, opacity – thanks to its primary juicy freshness; sweet, high-toned inner-mouth esters suggestive of distilled fruits; and to a wealth of mineral nuances (marine, crustacean, peaty) that manage to shine through in a penetrating and resplendent finish. I would not plan to revisit it for a couple of years, and expect it will be worth following for at least 8-10. |

Burgundy | 2 | 92 (VN) |
Inc. GST
SG$5,035.15 |
|||||
Vinous (92)Moderately saturated medium red with a faint brick aspect. Musky aromas of red raspberry and mocha began a bit earthy and low-toned but gained in freshness with aeration. Silky and rather generous in the context of its vintage, conveying a strong spice character to its flavors of cherry, red berries and earth. The wine's fruit and tannins reveal a slight dry edge but this very savory Chambertin also boasts a subtle, sexy sweetness. The tannins turn a bit dusty with air, and I wonder if they will ever be fully integrated. (13.2% alcohol; 3.45 pH, 3.6 g/l acidity; 38 h/h) |

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.
