Vinous (94)
Good dark red. Expressive, high-toned nose shows a leesy complexity to the aromas of cherry, flowers, soil and what Patrick Landanger called blood peach. The palate offers uncanny energy and perfume, with sweet fruit lifted by spices and flowers. Lovely juiciness and class here. A wonderful Corton grand cru. Landanger did a much better job timing the harvest here than he did in 2012.Inc. GSTSG$2,211.39 -

(6x75cl) 2017Vinous (91-93)
The 2017 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru offers more red fruit than the Bonnes-Mares, although at the moment this does not quite deliver the same nuance and comeliness. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, quite linear and strict (especially for this vineyard), but with a welcome pinch of white pepper and sage towards the persistent finish. Afford it several years in bottle.Inc. GSTSG$2,846.51 -
(6x150cl) 2015Vinous (93-95)
(two of the four barrels were new; the production here was just 25 hectoliters per hectare, according to Landanger): Bright ruby. Sexy perfume of black raspberry, minerals, brown spices, licorice pastille and underbrush. Plush, sweet and smooth, offering superb concentration, energy and balance. Utterly seamless wine with terrific inner-mouth floral lift. The wine's strong fruit blows past the firm, late-arriving tannins on the juicy, gripping, very long finish.Inc. GSTSG$4,494.03 -
Wine Advocate (96)
The 2014 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, from 0.32 hectares of vines planted in 1950 and 1951, has a much more generous bouquet compared to the Chambolle-Amoureuses, tensile red cherry and raspberry coulis scents, wet limestone and just a hint of cassis in the background. It is very Clos de la Roche, to put it prosaically. The palate is very harmonious, silky smooth and elegant. There is fine weight in the mouth, though this is more about tension and elegance, with a gorgeous, sensual, satin-like touch to the finish. This could become one of the best wines from this vineyard.Inc. GSTSG$2,159.81 -
Vinous (94)
Dark red with ruby highlights. Very ripe but discreet aromas of dark cherry liqueur, wild berries and licorice, plus a note of sweet spices (cumin?). Dense, bright and savory; silky and soil-driven, with saline minerality complicating the berry and spice flavors. Finishes very long and perfumed, with excellent energy for the year. This is one address where I preferred the 2011s to the 2012s.Inc. GSTSG$1,887.31 -

Vinous (84-86)
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Villages, matures in 20% new oak, has a light, slightly rustic, ferrous bouquet. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, a little pinched at the moment with an angular finish.Inc. GSTSG$800.50 -
Inc. GSTSG$2,325.84 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Groseilles 1er Cru shakes off a touch of reduction to reveal and attractive, floral bouquet with scents of mandarin that infuse the black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a rounded opening, quite fleshy underneath that carapace of tannin, grippy with a slightly tarry finish. Broody at the moment, it deserves four or five years in bottle, by then it should drink well.Inc. GSTSG$2,778.19 -
Vinous (87-90)
Bright ruby-red. Wild, musky aromas of dark berries and spices come across as a bit dull. Juicy and moderately deep but rather closed today, showing more saline minerality than primary fruit. This very backward wine finishes with slightly tough tannins and a lingering salty character.Inc. GSTSG$2,194.13 -

Vinous (91-93)
The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet, a little earthier than Pousse d’Or’s other Chambolle Premier Crus, slightly ferrous with orange rind and a slight steely scent. The palate is sweet on the entry with tart black cherry fruit, quite saline with fine mineralité towards the finish that lingers in the mouth. Excellent.Inc. GSTSG$2,543.84 -
(12x75cl) 2014Wine Advocate (91-93)
The 2014 Chambolle Musigny les Charmes 1er Cru has one of the most exotic bouquets from La Pousse d'Or: macerated red cherries, orange peel and dried fig, nicely defined and just a little heady! The palate is succulent on the entry with supple, fine tannin. Here, there is a mixture of red and black fruit, whereas other cuvées lean towards the latter. It feels more harmonious in the mouth, perhaps more approachable with a persuasive, silky texture on the finish. This is very well crafted.Inc. GSTSG$2,919.89 -
Vinous (91-94)
Moderately saturated medium red. Aromas of raspberry, minerals and dried flowers complicated by torrefaction notes of mocha and coffee. Round on entry, then sappy in the middle, showing terrific crushed raspberry intensity along with saline, mocha, spice and earth notes. This very taut, energetic wine is even more backward than the Amoureuses. Really saturates the palate on the back end, finishing with outstanding smoky persistence.Inc. GSTSG$2,231.67 -

(6x75cl) 2011The Potinet Ampeau Meursault 1er Cru Charmes 2011 is a captivating white wine crafted in Burgundy's esteemed Meursault region.

(1x75cl) 2015Wine Advocate (88)
The 2015 Saint-Romain Cuvée de la Mésange is very pretty, wafting from the glass with notes of honey, white flowers and orchard fruit. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with a glossy attack and fresh acids, finishing with good grip. William Ponsot originated in Saint-Romain, and this bottling nods to that heritage.Inc. GSTSG$152.49 -
Burghound (90)
(from vines replanted in 2005 in the villages portion of Monts Luisants). A ripe but fresh and elegant nose combines notes of black raspberry, cassis, anise and violet. The lilting and delicious medium-bodied flavors possess excellent delineation and a subtle minerality that adds a sense of lift to the youthfully austere, sneaky long and well-balanced finale. Lovely and very Monts Luisants in character.Inc. GSTSG$858.27 -
Vinous (89-91)
The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Cuvée des Grives comes from shallow soils, the vines here are 16 years old. This possesses much more complexity and terroir expression on the nose than the Gevrey, sous-bois and truffle permeate the red fruit, with good vigour. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fresh and smooth with lightly spiced dark cherry and orange zest notes on the finish. Lovely.Inc. GSTSG$508.70 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis Village Cuvée des Grives comes from just below the woods above the village. It has a clean, precise bouquet of pastille-like blackberry and bilberry fruit, tightly wound at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, quite focused and very well balanced. This is an unassuming but effective Morey Village with a wonderful saline finish. Superb.Inc. GSTSG$665.34 -
Wine Advocate (90)
The 2015 Morey-Saint-Denis Cuvée des Grives is very pretty this vintage, offering up lovely aromas of sweet red cherry, strawberry and peony. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, fine-grained and silky textured, with an expansive attack and notable structural amplitude. This is classic Ponsot.Inc. GSTSG$824.48
