Domaine des Lambrays was established in 1363 yet it was only in 1981 that this climat was finally promoted to Grand Cru. The estate was purchased in 1996 by the Freune family and since then dramatic changes have taken place, leading to an upsurge in quality. At 8.8 hectares, this is the largest Grand Cru…
Delicate blossom notes and a skein of sweet butter introduce this rich, lavishly textured Chardonnay. It’s ripe and voluminous, reflective of this intensely hot, dry vintage, but balanced smartly with a spine of acidity and lingering notes of steel and salt. Even in youth it’s drinking quite well but should improve through 2030 – Anna…
Dark and intense ruby red. Fine and precise with notes of dark berries (bilberry, blackberry), evolving with aeration into spicy and slightly leather/tobacco notes. Crunchy featuring dark berries and very slightly toasted notes on the mouth. Thick on the finish with dense, ripe and salivating tannins.
Romain Taupenot is the ninth generation to run this family domaine in Morey-Saint-Denis. The domaine’s diverse vineyard sites across both the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune can be traced back to this union of holdings from the Taupenot family, based in Saint-Romain, with those belonging to the Mermes, from Morey-Saint-Denis. Romain and his…
Les Preuses is probably taken from the word “Perreuse” (stone), the name given to the ancient Roman road which ran below the current vineyard. Made for ageing thanks to a dense, compact, clay-rich soil resting on a limestone bed. Domaine William Fevre Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses 2018 vintage has a floral nose, with fruity…
Much like the Vaulorent, the nose instantly confirms with conviction that this could be from nowhere else but Chablis with its airy array of citrus rind, sea breeze, quinine and smoky green fruit aromas. There is excellent size, weight and richness to the broad-shouldered yet sleek flavors if not nearly the same refinement on the…
With a geological structure similar to the Grands Crus and excellent exposure, this terroir is considered one of the best Premiers Crus. The wine is both full and rich yet can also show its mineral and floral characteristics. The 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre is a terrific success, unfurling in the glass…

The name of this 1er cru, a monopole from Domaine Faiveley, most probably originates from the English “My Land”, the name given to this area by an English dignitary. This clos produces a powerful, direct and well-balanced wine. 2020 is a solar vintage yet the wines show a lot of freshness and no flavours of…
Opening once in the glass, revealing aromas of dark berries, cassis, rich soil tones, grilled squab and baking chocolate. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with good concentration, tangy acids and a chassis of rich structuring tannin. Forget this beautifully balanced Santenay for five or six years.
