As is usually the case this is much earthier and more sauvage with its more deeply pitched aromas of various dark berry fruit, plum, floral and discreet humus nuances. There is notably more size, weight and power present to the markedly rich big-bodied flavors that are at once seductive yet quite serious on the clearly built-to-age finish. Bin: 4201

Domaine Bernard Gripa, Cerise Rouge | 2016

This is actually listed as a non-vintage wine and also carries the humble "Vin de France" moniker but it comes all from the exceptional 2016 vintage. It's even printed on the cork. Because the wine comes from vines in St Joseph BUT is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon (a no-no for St Joseph) and 50% Syrah, you have a wine that doesn't fit in the appellation system. Who CARES? This stuff is flat-out delicious. Bin: 2407

Domaine Dufouleur, Nuits Saint Georges Cuvée du Château | 2018

Nuits-Saint-George is crossed by the Combe de la Serrée which divides the terroir of this appellation into two very different parts. If in the south, the rocky soils give birth to robust and sometimes a little austere wines in their youth, in the north, the clay silts and alluviums of Meuzin give more delicate and fleshy wines. The different village-level climats cultivated on the estate, located on both sides, come together harmoniously in a "cuvée ronde", thus seeking rather balance than the expression of their respective singularities which are sometimes too marked. Bin: 3109

Domaine George Mugneret-Gibourg, Vosne-Romanée | 2016

After fermentation is completed in stainless, the wines are moved to the cellar for aging in old, wooden tonneau barrels. The Fleurie has a piquant raspberry fruit and very soft, dusty tannins. Bin: 2404

Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru | 2013

"The King's Plot" vineyard became Louis XI's property when the last Duke of Burgundy died. It's considered mid-slope and sits just above Bressandes. Often called the "red side" of the hill, Clos du Roi sticks-out with its darker soils and rock debris. To me, Clos du Roi is a bit broader and more gentleman than lady Bressandes. Darker black fruits are tucked underneath the red fruits with an ashy black tea and umami perfume. Bin: 2208

$170

Domaine du Gros Nore, Bandol Rouge | 2016

Gorgeously full-bodied, the 2016 erupts from the glass with black fruit, wild herbs, and striking depth and purity.

A dusting of red sandstone covers the chalky mother rock. Yields are very low at 45hl/ha. Spontaneous fermentation in open containers is followed by aging in 500L barrels.

Stein has some of the oldest Pinot Noir vines in the Mosel. Different grape, but the same steep, slate slopes you’d expect.
