Bertrand Bachelet Meursault Clos du Cromin 2020
Meursault Clos du Cromin takes its name from the village “Le Cromin”, situated in the north-east of the appellation, close to the Volnay vineyard, in rich, clay soil. Ageing takes place in oak barrels, of which 25% are new, for about twelve months. The wine reveals a beautifully transparent and brilliant color, a subtle nose of citrus fruits, butter and honey, and a long finish.

Bruno Lorenzon Montagny Le Mont Laurent 1er Cru 2020
The 2020 Montagny 1er Cru Le Mont Laurent is very good, mingling aromas of crisp orchard fruit, freshly baked bread, clear honey, dried white flowers and nutmeg in an inviting bouquet, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and muscular palate that’s rich but incisive, with terrific tension, tangy acids and a penetrating finish. This bottling derives from a two-hectare, high-altitude monopole characterized by mauve Triassic clays.

Jean Claude Bessin Chablis La Fourchaume La Piece au Comte 1er Cru 2020
A brilliant wine from the best part of Bessin’s holdings in this premier cru, the 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume La Pice Au Comte exhibits aromas of citrus zest, crisp green apple, freshly baked bread, pastry cream and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless, it’s deep and complete, with racy structuring acids and a long, saline finish.

Nicolas Morin Monthelie Les Riottes 1er Cru 2018
Coming from a career in barrel making, Nicolas Morin has crafted this velvety, complex Pinot Noir with intense focus on sourcing the best organic fruit and combining with meticulous vinification. Les Riottes hosts 70+ year old vines and produces deep and sensual wines.

Henri Jouan Morey Saint Denis 2018
“The estate is tiny, only 3 hectares split over 10 parcels for the 5 crus produced. Phillippe Jouan farms vines between 45 70 years old. He applies a short cuvaison of 12-14 days with gentle extraction, then an early malolactic followed by a year in barrel with 25 -40% new oak from Franois Frres.

Domaine Glantenay Volnay Les Brouillards 1er Cru 2019
The vines date back to 1950 (0.83ha) and 1999 (0.27ha). Clear bright purple. The nose is especially heady, actually the most interesting of the three Volnay 1ers crus. Les Brouillards ripens later than its neighbours Les Angles and Fremiers. Superbly succulent, with a beautiful juicy deep black and red fruit. Good length.
