2021 La Fiorita Brunello di Montalcino The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a rich blend of crushed blackberries and plums, complicated by mentholated herbs and stone dust. Silken and weighty yet still energetic, it offers depths of ripe red and black fruits enhanced by a bitter tinge of dark chocolate and citrus. It resonates with tension, leaving sweet tannins and a balsamic twang that pinches at the cheeks and keeps the palate salivating for more. Well done. Vinous 94 2025-11-24
2021 Elia Palazzesi Collelceto Brunello di Montalcino The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is darkly floral and inward. Nuances of grilled herbs and crushed rocks give way to dried strawberries. It's surprisingly lifted, soft and round, with bright cherry-berry fruits guided by juicy acidity. This 2021 leaves a gentle tug of fine tannins and mineral resonances as pretty inner florals fade slowly. Vinous 92 2025-11-24
2008 Jean Laurent Blanc de Blancs Brut 'La Griffe de l'Ource' From a producer based in the southern Aube region, this pure Chardonnay is soft and fruity yet with a mineral texture. It's a balanced, ripe wine, now mature and hinting at toastiness. Drink now. Wine Enthusiast 93 2025-11-18
2024 Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon 'La Roche' The 2024 Morgon La Roche (formerly Corcelette) has a perfumed rose petal-tinged bouquet with wonderful transparency. The palate is very balanced—again, quite linear in style. It does not have the depth of the 2022 or 2023 on the finish but it is clean and poised. Let's see what it offers in 12 months' time.

2009 Jean Laurent Brut Blanc de Blancs 'La Griffe de l'Ource' Produced from vines over 50 years old, the wine is still tight and textured. Its fine acidity is impressive, with white fruit and layers of citrus still very present. Drink this Champagne now. Wine Enthusiast 93 2025-11-18
NV Bailly Lapierre Cremant de Bourgogne 'Reserve' Enticing aromas of bread dough, brioche, and apple tart flatter white peach, orange blossom, and white flower on the nose. The palate presents fresh fruit, green apple, and lemon zest that play with chalky acidity on the finish. Wine Enthusiast 91 2025-11-17
NV Bailly Lapierre Cremant de Bourgogne Rose Alluring aromas of brioche, cherry tart, and orange peel are accented by lilac and white blossom.

2022 Domaine Michel Goubard et Fils Rouge 'Mont-Avril' Cote Chalonnaise This wine deserves an evening of contemplation. Elegant aromas of raspberry, black cherry, and black plum entrance the nose, buttressed by black tea, dried hay, forest floor, and field grass. Deft concentration enlivens the palate, with modulated fruit that wears a jacket of relaxed tannins. Wine Enthusiast 91 2025-11-17
2022 Chono Carmenere 'Single Vineyard' Colchagua Valley A balanced bouquet reveals aromas of eucalyptus and a sweet note of ripe cherries. Firm tannins and good acidity provide structure, supporting notes of green bell pepper and red fruit. Best Buy. Wine Enthusiast 90 2025-11-17
