* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Powerful, ripe wine, plump and structured. There are fresh black cherries and plums and structure that promises some aging.

This wine combines both the richness of 2005 with the minerality of the terroir, a balance that works well. It is certainly full but never overblown, restrained by a streak of steel and by the green apple flavors.

Soft, ripe and generous, this is a delicious, spicy wine with a backbone of great tannins. The aftertaste shows layers of acidity and fresh red berry fruits.

Very Pommard, very structured, this is a dense and dark wine that shows big black fruits over dry tannins. It’s big, firm, muscular, a powerhouse of firmness and richness.

Floral and aromatic, this wine is the opposite of the typical tannic Nuits-St.-Georges. It is lively, with vibrant red fruits, great rich black cherry flavors, with a light layer of tannin providing structure.

This monopole (wholly-owned vineyard) is in the heart of the village of Aloxe-Corton. The 2005 is structured and wood-dominated at this stage; the dense fruit and the sweet, ripe, red berry acidity are waiting to develop into a wine that will be rich, smooth and velvety. Give it 6 years at least.

A wide-open, creamy wine, with flavors of ripe apples. It is round, generous, full-bodied, only just touched by minerality and edged with wood. Drink over the next 2–3 years.

Firm, rustic and earthy initially, then showing red cherries and ripe fruits. The freshness comes through this soft, delicate wine, which lacks concentration.
