Bright red cranberry brims with freshness and aroma on the nose of this wine. The palate also presents fresh-faced fruitiness, but here the berry notes are riper, juicier and more reminiscent of berry compote. Firm, fine...

A delicate 2017, this is bright and spicy with a cool, earthen bitterness that almost feels old-fashioned in the context of more recent vintages. Pretty strawberry and notes of rhubarb layer over the tannins, their smoke...

Showing a combination of suppleness and power, this red strikes a balance between the dense structure and expressive cherry and raspberry flavors. Built to age, this is fresh on the long, mineral-laced finish. Best from...

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru is very perfumed on the nose, offering confit-like red berry fruit, blood orange and raspberry jam. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine delineation, nice...

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques Vieilles Vignes 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet of mixed red and black fruit and a faint touch of tomato vine. It becomes more floral with aeration. The palate has fine...
