Burghound (89-92)
There is just enough reduction present to blur the distinctions between the various fruit and floral elements. The seductive yet reasonably well-delineated medium-bodied flavors possess a really lovely mouth feel thanks primarily to the abundant level of dry extract that coats the palate on the lightly mineral and citrus-tinged finish. This is one of those wines that is so exuberantly delicious that it will be hard to resist young.Inc. GSTSG$1,682.37 -

Tasted blind, the 2015 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanée from Domaine Paul Pillot performed very well, wafting from the glass with a classy bouquet of green orchard fruit, wheat toast and iodine. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, glossy and layered, with considerable concentration at the core and chewy structuring extract. Understated and pure in profile, it's a terrific rendition of one of Chassagne-Montrachet's finest premiers crus.Inc. GSTSG$3,977.85 -

Tasted blind, this was also a very strong showing for Pillot's 2015 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets. Aromas of lemon oil, mandarin and nutmeg mingle with hints of petrol and crushed chalk in a complex bouquet, introducing a medium-bodied, tense and stony wine with racy acids and a mouthwatering, unmistakably stony finish.Inc.

Citrusy and fresh green apple and floral aromas serve as a pretty introduction to the racy, intense and stony middle weight flavors that deliver fine length on the bitter lemon-infused finish. This is a somewhat atypical 2015 in that it's both racier and drier than most examples.Inc. GSTSG$367.96 -

The 2015 Chapelle-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru was more expressive and vibrant on the nose compared to the Griotte Chambertin at this early stage with vivacious blackberry, bergamot, mulberry and violets aromas that come bounding from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple and very fine tannin, a keen line of acidity and a sense of composure and harmony that I found wanting in the Griotte. It gently caresses the senses and leaves a residue of spice on the tongue after it has departed. This is a superb offering from Christophe Perrot-Minot.Inc. GSTSG$861.73 -

(just one new barrel out of seven): Dark red with ruby tones. Essence-of-Burgundy perfume of raspberry, white pepper, cardamom, Cuban tobacco, coffee and underbrush. Outrageously dense and intense on entry, then brilliantly delineated, penetrating and sweet in the middle palate, with its tangy red berry and earth flavors enlivened by building notes of menthol, rose petal and Oriental spices. With its uncanny energy and complexity and its unflagging finishing thickness, this noble, electric wine has all the elements for greatness. (And I could drink it today for its perfect balance and digestibility!)Inc. GSTSG$8,394.61 -

Dark red with ruby tones. Deeper, darker and earthier than the Clos de Bèze, conveying aromas of dark raspberry, spices and rare steak but less of the high-pitched mineral and floral notes of its sibling. Large-scaled, brooding and backward, but still more red fruits than black in style, with its density and power leavened by electric acidity. Combines incredible thickness and volume without a light touch, thanks to penetrating soil-driven minerality. Finishes with an uncanny impression of solidity but no excess weight. This brilliant Chambertin is built for a very long life in bottle.Inc. GSTSG$9,124.91 -
Burghound (89-92)
A ripe and fresh but markedly more restrained nose speaks of liqueur-like red cherry aromas that display added breadth in the form of anise, lavender and rose petal. The middle weight flavors possess a caressing mouth feel before terminating in a lacy, detailed and highly complex finale. The significant amount of 1er juice is evident and this is lovely and very Chambolle-esque in character.Inc. GSTSG$1,266.01 -
Vinous (95)
Full dark red. Pungent scents of raspberry, crushed rock and rose petal. At once silky, sappy and savory, conveying a captivating light touch and terrific inner-mouth tension to its sharply delineated red raspberry, pomegranate and crushed-rock flavors. Finishes with compelling mounting perfume and saliva-inducing briskness. Not at all a fleshpot for the vintage, this classy Charmes-Chambertin struck me as rather Chambolle-like.Inc. GSTSG$1,044.39 -

The 2015 Mazoyères-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has the most vivacious and intense bouquet amongst Christophe's 2015s, billowing red and dark cherries, creme de cassis, crushed violets and blood orange. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and extremely well-judged acidity. As such, there is outstanding focus here and a sense of precision running all the way through to the finish. This is a seriously fine Mazoyères-Chambertin that must rank as one of the best this domaine has produced.Inc. GSTSG$1,948.00 -

Good medium red. Raspberry, strawberry and spice aromas were initially a bit dulled by oak, but aeration brought some of the floral high notes shown by the other Pacalet '15s. Then juicy, spicy and herbal on the palate, showing modest flesh and restrained sweetness and a youthfully medicinal quality. A distinctly peppery, dry Nuits-Saint-Georges with a firm dusting of tannins and good length. A bit austere in the context of this collection but with no shortage of cherry and dark berry intensity. This needs a good three or four more years of cellaring.Inc. GSTSG$3,070.44 -

Dullish medium red. Lovely spicy lift to the aromas of red berries and menthol. Juicy and energetic, offering good cut to the flavors of red fruits, spices and peppery herbs. As much a whole-cluster wine as a Nuits-Saint-Georges but juicy and fun to drink, and with no shortage of texture or material.

The 2015 Chapelle Chambertin Grand Cru has a very elegant bouquet. Usually I find Damoy's wines a little too extracted for my personal taste, although here there is admirable Pinot Noir expression. An omen for the future? The palate is medium-bodied with black pepper-tinged red berry fruit, a slight dustiness developing towards the finish, but there is respectable concentration and persistence on the finish.Inc.

Pale, bright yellow. Pure, backward nose is more precise and higher pitched than the Bâtard, offering scents of tangerine zest, crushed rock and silex minerality. Boasts an uncommon combination of thickness with verve. Not heavy but incredibly opulent in the mouth, with its citrus and fresh herb flavors supported by bracing minerality. A wonderfully intense, seamless wine of terroir, and a step above the other 2015s I tasted at this address. Really superb palate-staining length.Inc. GSTSG$2,287.81 -
Vinous (94)
Very pale color. Very expressive aromas of pineapple, menthol, crushed stone and white flowers; more open than the Meursault Les Genevrières. Opulent, thick, tactile wine with unexpected sucrosité as well as near-painful intensity to its citrus fruit, peach and floral flavors. Sharply delineated but with plenty of baby fat to buffer its underlying minerality. Colin told me he normally prefers his Genevrières in very warm vintages like 2015, but admits that this wine is surprisingly open today. Will it shut down in bottle?Inc. GSTSG$3,002.62 -

A notably ripe yet attractively fresh nose speaks of both red and dark berries along with soft earth nuances. There is fine volume to the relatively full-bodied flavors that possess a lovely mid-plate texture before concluding in a mildly rustic and warm finish.

This too is notably ripe but even more restrained with its layered array of earthy dark berry fruit aromas and subtle spice notes. There is terrific concentration to the muscular and surprisingly sleek full-bodied flavors that are delicious and also possess excellent mid-palate density that drenches the palate in sappy dry extract that also completely buffers the robust tannic spine on the explosive, rustic and hugely long finish. This is an imposingly powerful effort that is also going to need a very long snooze in a cool cellar. Textbook Clos de Vougeot.Inc. GSTSG$5,006.87 -

The 2015 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru is excellent, opening in the glass with notes of golden orchard fruit, spring flowers, orange zest and hazelnut cream, gently framed by new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied with a glossy attack, superb concentration and an almost chewy sense of extract, its taut structural elements asserting themselves on the grippy finish. While this is marked by the warmth of the vintage it has the necessary energy and freshness to retain its balance.Inc. GSTSG$615.75 -
Burghound (92-95)
A wonderfully spicy, elegant and fresh nose blends notes of red and dark cherry with those of cassis, plum, violet and discreet earth nuances. The intense and tautly muscular middle weight plus flavors are even more refined if perhaps not quite as mineral-driven while delivering superb length on the balanced but markedly austere finish where a touch of cherry pit emerges. This is also very clearly built-to-age and I wouldn't dream of touching a bottle for at least 10 years and it should easily reward 20.Inc. GSTSG$3,243.23

We found the wines in 2015 very easy and forward to taste, with as much focus on freshness as concentration, so there wasn’t a complete break from the 2014s in that sense. The hope is that as the wines mature they will continue to show the balance and classicism they displayed from the barrel. Our expectation is that they will do so and the best wines will live for a very long time with a genuinely satisfying pattern of maturation throughout their life.
