Dark medium red. Ineffable nose combines tight, wild red berries, musky animal nuances and a hint of torrefaction, enlivened by hint notes of wild mint and white pepper. Densely packed and chewy; a distinctly masculine wine with outstanding intensity and underlying structure. And yet the texture is silky too. This utterly palate-saturating wine finishes with explosive rising notes of red berries, game, licorice, pepper, mint and saline minerality and great perfumed persistence. The crop level from these old vines and small berries was between 30 and 35 hectoliters per hectare, as Bernstein routinely does multiple green harvests here to ensure that the clusters finish at roughly the same level of potential alcohol. Incidentally, Bernstein attempted to ensure freshness in his 2015s by using 80% whole clusters to balance the ripeness of the fruit.Inc. GSTSG$5,130.34 -

The 2012 Bonnes-Mares is one of the most reticent wines among the Grand Crus. Here it is the wine's inner tension and pure sense of energy that stand out most. Violets, crushed rocks, graphite and plums are all layered into the powerful, imposing finish. The 2012 was fermented with 80% whole clusters, and it still needs time to fully come together. Still, from time to time glimpses of brilliance come through, suggesting what lies ahead.Inc. GSTSG$5,168.21 -
Vinous (95)
Medium red. Aromas and flavors of raspberry, blueberry, smoky minerality and exotic spices, with complementary oak tones. Wonderfully pliant and smooth but with peppery and saline elements restraining its sweetness and contributing to an impression of inner-mouth perfume and lift. A superb, tactile midweight with very suave tannins and outstanding juicy persistence. Very silky and not at all austere.Inc. GSTSG$3,822.06 -

The 2018 Chambertin Grand Cru is a dense, powerful wine that is going to need the better part of a decade to soften. Tannic and brooding, the 2018 is in no mood to show all its cards today. There is good depth and tons of intensity, but the tannins are overpowering at this stage.Inc. GSTSG$2,539.48 -
Jancis Robinson (18.5)
Very dark crimson. Heady and intense. Very rich and magnificent. Truly a noble, ambitious wine even if not the subtlest. With lift and majesty. Some sweetness but not excessively so. Just still a little dry/bitter on the finish but the Bernstein style is evident, uncompromising and ambitious.Inc. GSTSG$3,407.06 -
(3x75cl) 2015Vinous (97)
Bright, dark red; a bit more saturated than the Mazis. Knockout, slightly liqueur-like aromas and flavors of dark raspberry, boysenberry, rose petal, licorice and mint, complicated by musky soil tones. Pure silk on the palate but with its uncanny thickness of texture leavened by energy. This wonderfully tactile, savory wine saturates every square millimeter of the palate and finishes with powerful medicinal reserve and incredible building length. And yet there's no impression of weightiness here. This could be enjoyed right now with the right piece of meat, but I'd rather lay it down for eight or ten years.Inc. GSTSG$3,724.24 -
Vinous (94-97)
Dark red-ruby. Knockout nose combines raspberry, cherry, game and saline underbrush, plus a whiff of torrefaction. At once fully ripe and delicate; in a distinctly more feminine style than the Mazis. The plush, rich yet elegant flavors of medicinal dark fruits, spices and exotic flowers are complicated by salty minerality. Less sweet in the early going than the Mazis, finishing precise, classic and extremely long, with serious but fully buffered tannins that melt into the palate.Inc. GSTSG$2,955.79 -

Serious savour and earthiness on the nose here – much less rich than the other stablemates tasted so far. Very sweet on the palate though with great impact and tightness – though some dryness on the end. These are wines very much built to last.Inc. GSTSG$4,933.06 -

Olivier Bernstein's 2011 Charmes-Chambertin is made from parcels in both Mazoyeres and Charmes proper. Dark red stone fruits, spices, new leather and licorice grace the palate in a beautiful, supple Charmes built on pure texture and resonance. The 2011 is just as pretty in bottle as it was in barrel.Inc. GSTSG$2,145.62 -
(6x75cl) 2015Vinous (94)
Moderately saturated bright red. Subtler on the nose than the Champeaux, showing a penetrating perfume to the aromas of raspberry liqueur and flowers. Plush, sweet and stuffed with red berries, spices and dried flowers, offering outstanding volume while maintaining its shape and avoiding any impression of heaviness. Quite spherical in the middle palate, then suave on the back end, finishing with late-arriving fine-grained tannins and resounding length. (This is a blend of Charmes and Mazoyères, from two different owners.)Inc. GSTSG$2,750.57 -
Vinous (94)
The 2010 Clos de La Roche captures the essence of this site in its blue/blackish fruit, vibrant mineral notes, crushed rocks, mint and violets. Intense, aromatic overtones appear later, adding lift and finesse. This is a fabulous showing from Olivier Bernstein. A few years of cellaring will do the 2011 a world of good.Inc. GSTSG$2,821.42 -
Vinous (93-96)
Bright, dark red. A sexy note of flinty reduction to the aromas of raspberry, mocha, brown spices, smoke and underbrush. Silky and fine-grained but with terrific energy and lift to its sappy flavors of raspberry, minerals and spices. This penetrating, vibrant wine finishes with a firm tannic spine and terrific palate-stimulating length and grip.Inc. GSTSG$3,726.12 -

Iron, crushed rocks and rose petals meld into expressive red fruits in the 2012 Clos Vougeot. At once layered but also deeply expressive, the 2012 impresses for its balance and sense of harmony. The 2012 is a bit tense and compact, but all the elements are in the right place. This should be a fabulous bottle once the elements meld together a little more fully.Inc. GSTSG$1,079.91 -
