Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90)
Pale lemon colour. A lean and crisp style of Puligny in 2021. Rather lovely on the palate, some citrus some riper fruit, more floral than the Meursault, with a clean poised and balanced finish. Drink from 2025-2028. Tasted: November 2022Inc. GSTSG$1,082.81 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-98)
Glowing fresh crimson colour. The nose shows fresh fruit without detail as yet. I am impressed by the weight and energy of this very promising Clos Vougeot There is plenty up front, muscular, but enough behind too. A beautiful finish as pure class peeps throughout. Very happy with this! Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted: October 2023.Inc. GSTSG$1,917.75 -

The 2022 Pernand-Vergelesses Clos de la Croix de Pierre has more detail and terroir expression than the Combottes: well-defined with crushed stone and dried yellow flowers complementing the citrus fruit. The palate is well-balanced with a waxy texture. A dash of white pepper enlivens this Pernand, which fans out nicely on the finish. One of my picks from Jadot's whites this year.Inc. GSTSG$483.31 -

Phenolic and pithy again, like the Blanchot. Quite stylised for Chablis – partly ‘naturalistic’, partly oxidative! It works though, and there's a bit of oak in the mix too. Not archetypal Chablis, but still impressive.Inc. GSTSG$906.23 -
Jancis Robinson (16.5)
Tangy, open-knit, fine apple fruit and broad texture. Much more conventional than their Vaudésir and Blanchot – and perhaps less interesting therefore?Inc. GSTSG$906.23 -
Burghound (93-96)
Ripe aromas include those of plum, dark cherry, warm earth and a whisper of the sauvage. The supple, delicious and dense big-bodied flavors flash enormous power and drive that really builds from the mid-palate to the explosively long and sappy finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. Note that this is very firmly structured and in need of at least a decade of keeping and should reward almost two.Inc. GSTSG$5,486.45 -
Burghound (93-95)
This too is firmly reduced. There is almost painful intensity to the beautifully delineated and mineral-driven broad-shouldered flavors that possess a highly refined textured before culminating in an almost crisp, moderately austere and wonderfully persistent finale that is quite firmly structured. This is a bit atypical but no less attractive for it and a Bèze that should amply reward a decade plus of cellaring. Lovely.Inc. GSTSG$4,755.02 -
Burghound (91-93)
Once again firm reduction buries the fruit and its nuances. There is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the quite full-bodied flavors that possess almost as refined a texture though the underlying muscle seems more obvious on the sappy, austere and built-to-age finale. This is very Baudes in character with its robust yet reasonably refined delivering.Inc. GSTSG$1,694.30 -
Burghound (92-95)
Reduction masks the underlying fruit though there is a really lovely inner mouth perfume to the punchy and gorgeously textured middle weight flavors that brim with minerality on the sappy and wonderfully complex finale that flashes first-rate length. This firm effort is presently quite compact and a wine that is going to need at least some bottle aging to further flesh out, though it is already very classy.Inc. GSTSG$4,523.98 -

Burghound (92-95)
A highly restrained and ultra-pure nose reflects notes of the essence of both red and dark currant, forest floor and a more discreet whiff of the sauvage. The mouthfeel is unusually rich for young Latricières though there is ample minerality adding a sense of lift to the impressively persistent, markedly firm, austere and wInc. GSTSG$3,149.45 -
Burghound (92-94)
Notably ripe yet nicely fresh and even cool aromas of poached plum and dark berry fruit coulis are trimmed in hints of earth and the sauvage. The palate impression of the big-bodied and powerful flavors is one of contrasts as the mid-palate is actually nicely refined if dense whereas the wonderfully persistent finish is robust, muscular and borderline rustic, as well as exceptionally firm. Once again, I would recommend not touching a bottle for at least a decade and this beauty should repay almost two.Inc. GSTSG$1,258.30 -
Burghound (90-93)
Pungent aromas of wood and reduction lead to almost painfully intense middle weight flavors that also possess an appealing texture that is at once rich and nicely detailed, all wrapped in lingering finish that is appealingly complex. This is very pretty and while it will likely need 12-ish years to arrive at its apogee, it should be approachable after only 5 to 7.Inc. GSTSG$2,353.75 -
Burghound (91-94)
"Outstanding" An exuberantly spicy and very Vosne nose of plum, dark fruit coulis, exotic tea and sandalwood aromas beautifully complement the sleek and detailed if not especially dense flavors that still possess good richness on the dusty, very firm and youthfully austere finale. This too is absolutely going to require at least some forbearance.Inc. GSTSG$2,124.85 -
Burghound (90-92)
Here too the reduction is dense enough to hide the fruit. Otherwise, there is a caressing but punchy mouthfeel to the detailed and refined middle weight flavors that exude plenty of minerality on the mildly austere, firm and sneaky long finale. This is very Petits Vougeot in character with its elegant and understated style.Inc. GSTSG$1,574.40 -
Wine Advocate (93-94)
The Potel 2005 Vosne-Romanee Les Gaudichots offers a nose of cherry, red raspberry and spice box. Cinnamon and white pepper are among those that hitch a ride on the creamy palate, where intensely ripe, sweet red fruits, raw meat, and suggestions of caramelized root vegetables expand to fill all recesses of the mouth. Concentrated and complex manifestations of meat, roasted root vegetables, and mineral along with distilled red fruit suggestions inform the superbly long, multi-registered finish. Amazingly, there are three whole barrels of this.Inc. GSTSG$11,040.02 -
Jancis Robinson (17.5)
Nicolas Potel's négociant wine. 'No chaptalisation and no filtration therefore the most natural wines we've made for years. Some winemakers make a comparison with 2003 – but there were more than 100 days between flowering and picking in 2007 and 2008. 2007 was less delicate than we thought; I was tempted to bottle in September but found the wines were not ready.' Much more delicate than the Clos St-Denis. Wild strawberry fruit aromas plus delicate spice, and then more marked spice on the palate. All in a restrained and scented style and leading to a lingering finish and very fine tannins.Inc. GSTSG$5,411.20 -
Wine Advocate (95-97)
The 2013 Clos de la Roche Cuvée Vieilles Vignes, from vines planted in 1905, has an inviting, delineated bouquet with vibrant wild strawberry, raspberry preserve and mineral notes. The palate has great tension – so suave and poised with superb symmetry and an effortless finish that I don’t think the Clos Saint Denis has at the moment. Laurent Ponsot did not disguise his enthusiasm for this Grand Cru and I could understand why.Inc. GSTSG$4,009.52 -
Wine Advocate (97)
The 2016 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Cuvée Vieilles Vignes is superb, bursting from the glass with aromas of juicy cherries, peonies, blood orange, licorice, raw cocoa and espresso roast. On the palate, it's full-bodied, deep and succulent, with a concentrated, layered mid-palate, satiny structuring tannins and vibrant underlying acidity, concluding with a long finish. Harvested on October 7 at a comparatively high yield by Ponsot's standards of 38 hectoliters per hectare, this year seems to have been perfectly adapted to Ponsot's style. Vibrant, elegant and expressive, the 2016 is quite different from the richer, more powerful 2015, but in the fullness of time, I wouldn't be surprised to see it surpassing its brawnier elder sibling.Inc. GSTSG$4,002.94 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-95)
Pale colour with green tints, very fresh, there is even a little bit of noble reduction. The 2018 Forêts delivers an absolutely scintillating, crystalline purity. There is impressive weight on the palate, balanced by a refreshing greener element to the fruit.Inc. GSTSG$3,773.01 -
Wine Advocate (95)
The 2018 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur is brilliant, unwinding in the glass with notes of crisp green apple, white flowers, fresh bread, iodine and oyster shell. Full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, with chalky extract and tangy acids, it's one of the cooler, more tensile wines in the range and stands out as a particular highlight.Inc. GSTSG$8,656.21 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (96)
(5-Star Wine) From 60+ year old vines on the plateau part of Les Preuses. A pale lemon colour. The immediately joyous nose is making me smile. A little bit of wood then starts to come up. This has a thick texture but without the simplicity of Bougros, and a screaming kimmeridgian tension at the back. Seemingly endless at the finish. Drink from 2028-2040.Inc. GSTSG$1,367.30 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (87-88)
Medium to light crimson. A beautiful pure pinot fruit. Really classy on the palate, with the domaine’s signature oak at the back. Perfect acid balance. Looking forward to seeing this in bottle. Drink from 2024-2026. Tasted: October 2022Inc. GSTSG$475.68
