The 2005 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Réserve des Célestins opens with a spice-driven bouquet layered with dried red fruits, caramel, dates and savory undertones. On the palate, it is full-bodied and deeply concentrated, its richness carried by chalky tannins that structure the wine without overwhelming it. The finish is long and infused with a lingering spiciness.

The 2009 Châteauneuf Du Pape Reserve Des Celestins is certainly mature, yet it still has at least another decade of prime drinking followed by a gradual decline thereafter. A semi-opaque ruby hue with just a kiss of bricking at the rim, it has an essence of Provence-like perfume of sweet black cherries, roasted garrigue, licorice, and herbes de Provence. With full-bodied richness, a supple, layered, seamless mouthfeel, integrated tannins, and beautiful overall balance, it's not in the massive, concentrated style of the 2010 and shows the sun-kissed, complex, incredibly seductive style of the 2009 vintage beautifully. I followed this bottle over the course of an evening, and it needs about an hour of air to show at its best. Drink: 2025-2039.Inc. GSTSG$8,195.49 -

Schedule to be bottled next week (I suspect it will be in bottle by the time you read this), the 2010 Châteauneuf du Pape Reserve des Celestins is a sensational effort. Deeper, richer and more concentrated than the Marie Beurrier, it reveals an unusually inky ruby/purple color to go with overflowing notes of kirsch liqueur, roasted meats, crushed flowers, garrigue and just about every other Provençal spice you could name. Full-bodied, beautifully concentrated, layered and a blockbuster-styled effort, it should surpass the 2007 and possibly rival the 1990. This is a tour de force in Châteauneuf du Pape!Inc.

Reminding me of the 2005 (as well as the 1989) with its rich, powerful, muscular style, the 2015 Châteauneuf Du Pape Réserve Des Célestins reveals a deep, almost opaque ruby/purple hue as well as a great nose of blackcurrant and plum-like fruits intermixed with notions of smoked meats, chocolate, Asian hoisin sauce, and roasted garrigue. This full-bodied, concentrated Châteauneuf has building yet ripe tannins, flawless balance, and a meaty, bloody character that develops with air. It's not as ripe or exotic as the 2016, but its tannins are much riper and more polished than past vintages, and this is just loaded with potential. It needs to be forgotten for just 3-4 years, but it will be a 30-year wine.Inc. GSTSG$6,396.99 -

Good bright, deep red. Blackberry, minerals and crushed stone on the nose. Densely packed and concentrated, with savory dark berry, floral and licorice flavors leading to a youthfully powerful if rather strict finish.

The 2015 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Porrets Saint Georges is—like the Vaucrains—already beginning to shut down, gradually unfurling in the glass with aromas of cassis, currant leaf, rich spice and raw cocoa.

The 1996 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Porrets Saint-Georges 1er Cru has a broody and herbaceous nose, and a little green around the edges, becoming pastille-like with aeration. The palate is fresh with pointed, sharp acidity, gentle in terms of grip but this fades alarmingly on the finish. This suggests it is running out of puff so drink up! Tasted at the Gouges retrospective at La Cabotte.In BondSG$2,910.00 -

The 2011 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Porrets Saint-Georges 1er Cru has a fragrant bouquet with redcurrant and cranberry, a subtle seawater scent that emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, packed full of blackcurrant and cranberry. There is a trademark leafiness that develops towards the firm, structured finish with traces of black tea on the aftertaste. Give this another two or three years in bottle.

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90-92)
Good bright, deep red. Blackberry, minerals and crushed stone on the nose. Densely packed and concentrated, with savory dark berry, floral and licorice flavors leading to a youthfully powerful if rather strict finish. Classic sturdy Nuits-Saint-Georges but with lovely energy and finesse to its fruit. The big tannins spread out on the back end, yet the wine maintains a light touch.In BondSG$1,255.00 -
Jancis Robinson (16.5+)
Light cherry red with a suggestion of vegetal undergrowth on the nose. Lively and refined. Cool impression with very refined tannins. Absolutely nothing like the rather stodgy, austere style of yesteryear. Not long term but very charming.In BondSG$138.00 -
Wine Advocate (93+)
The 2015 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Porrets Saint Georges is—like the Vaucrains—already beginning to shut down, gradually unfurling in the glass with aromas of cassis, currant leaf, rich spice and raw cocoa. On the palate, the wine's fine-grained tannins take center stage for the moment, but its depth, concentration and energy are all very promising: the only missing ingredient is time.In BondSG$179.00
