At the heart of Burgundy's prestige lie its renowned vineyards, which have garnered global acclaim for their exceptional wines. The names that resonate in the world of Burgundy are Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, Domaine Armand Rousseau, and Domaine Georges Roumier. These vineyards have become synonymous with greatness, crafting wines that define elegance, complexity, and longevity.
Burgundy's most esteemed wines are crafted from two noble grape varieties: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Vineyards like Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne, and Meursault showcase the full potential of this noble grape, producing wines of unparalleled richness, depth, and complexity. These whites epitomize the artistry of winemaking, with each sip revealing layers of flavors and a harmonious balance between fruit, minerality, and oak.

Vinous (90-92)
Moderately saturated ruby-red. Blackberry, cassis and menthol aromas are lifted by a mineral element. Juicy, saline and youthfully tight, even a bit clenched, but with harmonious bright acidity giving verve to the wine's dark berry flavors. Serious building tannins saturate the entire palate on the rather suave, fine-grained finish.Inc. GSTSG$1,318.25 -
(6x75cl) 2019Vinous (91-93)
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Craipillot 1er Cru is slightly diffuse on the nose, those fragrant red fruit and rose petal notes just need something to bind them together to gain more focus. The palate is sweet and candied on the entry, fine grip and tannins, nicely structured towards the finish that fans out with a sense of breezy confidence. This is a lilting, charming Gevrey-Chambertin that will be difficult to resist in its youth.Inc. GSTSG$1,405.45 -
Vinous (89-92)
Medium red. Aromas of plum and licorice are a bit deeper-pitched and less precise than Confuron's premier crus from Gevrey-Chambertin. Creamy, dry and classic in the mouth, showing excellent ripeness and breadth. Tightens up on the finish, showing a rather clenched mineral character and serious, youthfully dry tannins.Inc. GSTSG$826.66 -
Vinous (88-90)
The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vignes Rondes has a perfumed, floral bouquet, a mixture of red cherries, cranberry and rose petal that open nicely with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy red berry fruit and chalky textured with a stern and rather rigid finish. It is just a little too dry on the end but maybe it will gain some flesh with bottle age?Inc. GSTSG$1,465.40 -
Inc. GSTSG$384.31 -
Vinous (93)
Deep red-ruby. Tight but tangy scents of black fruits, crushed stone, minerals and licorice, plus an exotic suggestion of white stone fruits. Wonderfully sappy, precise and energetic, conveying an impression of density without weight. This silky, refined wine is still a baby but its ripe, granular tannins and finishing juiciness suggest it will be a beauty with six or eight years of cellaring.Inc. GSTSG$240.43 -
Burghound (91-94)
Little else is discernible beyond strong reduction and wood toast. More positively is the lovely mid-palate mouthfeel to the medium weight flavors that display fine power and verve before culminating in a lingering if moderately strict and austere finale. This too is going to require extended bottle age as it's exceptionally firm, indeed even robust.Inc. GSTSG$1,233.31 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2019 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru has a gorgeous bouquet with perfumed black cherry and blueberry fruit, wilted iris petals and just a faint of lavender scent. The palate is rounded on the entry with juicy ripe red fruit laced with clove and white peppers, quite savory towards the finish that just lacks the sophistication of other Les Suchots that I tasted. Not a bad Vosne-Romanée by any means, but it needs more finesse in the final quarter.Inc. GSTSG$920.40 -

Vinous (89-91)
The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis Village comes from four climats scattered across the appellation and sees one-third new oak. Compared to the Chambolle Village, there is more fullness of fruit on the nose, which offers red cherries, crushed strawberry and rose petal aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, a fine bead of acidity, a little piquancy toward the finish and a bit of orange zest on the aftertaste. Excellent.Inc. GSTSG$604.38 -
Wine Advocate (88-90)
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Villages also comes from three vineyards and is matured in one-third new oak. This has an impressive bouquet like the Morey-Saint-Denis, with delineated red berry fruit and fine mineralité considering this is only a village cru. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin and well-judged acidity, dipping a little toward the finish but still equipped with fine detail and precision. Excellent, albeit maybe earlier drinking than the Morey-Saint-Denis.Inc. GSTSG$159.77 -

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Village comes from four sectors, 50% in the south and 50% in the north of the appellation, and was completely de-stemmed. This shows just a bit of reduction on the nose, although that will be resolved by bottling time. The medium-bodied palate is fresh and sorbet-like, displaying grainy tannin and kirsch and cassis notes toward the joyous finish. Expect a decade of drinking pleasure.Inc. GSTSG$516.09 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a perfumed, quite floral bouquet of dark cherries, raspberry and light tobacco aromas that gently unfold in the glass. The palate is very smooth and harmonious, with lightly spiced red fruit. Gains weight and grip toward the very finely detailed finish, which nudges Premier Cru in quality. Yeah... that good.Inc.

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village is predominantly red berry fruit on the nose, mixed with light rose petal aromas. The medium-bodied palate offers silky tannins and pure red fruit mixed with white pepper and sage. Very cohesive on the finish. It was a wise decision not to add any stems here – it doesn’t need them.Inc. GSTSG$163.76 -

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, which comes from three lieux-dits, has another intense bouquet with dark cherries, violet and touches of cassis fruit, a light sea spray scent in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with a spicy, quite pepper entry. Just a little disjointed towards the finish, nevertheless, it should cohere by the time of bottling and there is fine persistence.Inc.

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, reduced to four barrels this year, just feels a little enervated on the nose compared to the Morey, a tad shallow compared to other vintages. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, lively and fresh with orange sorbet towards its sweet and "playful" finish. The palate actually offers more than the aromatics.Inc. GSTSG$616.29 -

There are three barrels of the 2017 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru, two of them new. It has a very well-defined bouquet of blackberry, briar, raspberry and estuarine scents (think of cold marshland on a winter day.) The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin, beautifully integrated 100% whole bunch fruit, and fresh and very poised toward the persistent vintage. A superb Grands Echézeaux, and a seriously fine follow-up to the excellent 2016.Inc. GSTSG$4,238.42 -
Vinous (96-98)
The 2020 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru comprises of two and a half barrels this year. This has an unapologetically mineral-soaked bouquet: exquisite details and focus, plenty of dark fruit that seems to gain volume with time. The palate is medium-bodied with velvety tannins, blood orange infused red fruit with an elegant finish that knows there is no need to show off. Pure class.Inc. GSTSG$4,850.98 -
(1x75cl) 2021
Vinous (95-97)
The 2021 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru is backward and bashful on the nose despite coaxing, maybe a little overawed by the preceding Clos Saint-Denis? But if teasingly opens with time, ditto on the palate that delivers filigree tannins and an ethereal personality that defines the best Côtes de Nuits in this vintage. This is absolutely divine and is Collardot's greatest achievement in a difficult vintage.Inc. GSTSG$907.86 -

5 Star Wine. More of a crimson purple, raspberry seedless, taken a bit of oak, but superlative nonetheless and exceptionally long. Completely mouth filling with great charm, fills all the nooks and crannies. An excellent balance between the fruit acidity and tannins. Still going strong in my mouth several minutes later! Drink from 2032-2040.Inc. GSTSG$4,352.87 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)
No deeper in colour, and not the most expressive on the nose, with a softer strawberry fruit, which then emerges with full force on the palate. A softer style, a little less tension than my favourites in this cellar this year, though with some wood tannins to help build the structure. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. GSTSG$4,059.60
