Nuits-Saint-Georges

1er Cru Clos st Jean

A 2009 vintage Burgundy wine from Chassagne Montrachet.

89 points Allen Meadows - Burghound
"Outstanding! This is also notably ripe yet more elegant as the touch of minerality adds to the sense of refinement and it continues onto the rich, detailed and delicious medium-bodied flavors that possess good phenolic maturity to the supporting tannins on the solidly long finale. This is really quite pretty. " 2011

Mes Favorites, Vieilles Vignes, Alain Burguet

The 2008 Gevrey Chambertin is outstanding - a nice deep core that is now light at the edge, A notably ripe earthy dark berry fruit aromas and rich, stylish and sweet flavours that are even more complex and add the dimensions of power and punch to the remarkably long and explosive finish.

A traditionalist in every sense, Alain Burguet’s love of the ‘Great Outdoors’ sees him tirelessly work his vineyards during the growing season. As yet he is still quite an undiscovered grower, and therefore his prices are rather reasonable, mainly due to the fact he does not have plots in any of the “presitigious” vineyards. …

Echezeaux Grand cru Jean Tardy

This 2006 Echezeaux red wine is very fruity and shows the new oak, but the aromas are not nearly as wood-driven as you might expect from 100% new oak. This is a big and powerful wine. Very long finish and shows a lot of promise. The ebullient Jean Tardy, in partnership with his son Guillaume, is a perfectionist and huge enthusiast of the wines of Burgundy. A visit to his cellar, or a conducted tour of his disparate plots, will immediately confirm these facts. A tasting here is always enjoyable, certainly for the high quality of the wines, but also for the Tardys’ warmth. Powerful bouquets, rich pure flavours and good balance are the hallmarks here. …

Domaine Jean Chauvenet

Medium garnet core with a pale garnet rim. Developed aromas with earth and undergrowth to the fore, some underlying bilberry and raspberry fruit too. Medium- bodied with a nice mouthful of mulchy dark fruit on the initial attack, quite rich, earth notes, welcome fresh acidity but quite robust tannins which are particularly prominent on the medium length finish. Tasty, honest if a touch rustic.

Wine Society Label

Widely regarded as being Burgundy's most full-bodied and structured wine, the Gevrey Chambertin wines have a particular intensity of color, aroma and flavor about them, not to mention impressive longevity. Well-made examples can develop in the bottle for several decades. These qualities, combined with the village's solid reputation and relatively large production volumes, have earned Gevrey-Chambertin a reputation as the 'king' of Burgundy wines.

Aujoux,
