Burgundy Rautt

92-95 30% whole bunch vinification, with three new barrels in twelve. Bright crimson purple, with the new wood showing at the moment on the nose. S...

93-96 A little darker purple. More plums in the bouquet along with dark raspberry. This is a fully satisfying wine with a deep rich fruit and just ...

2020, Chambolle-Musigny Borniques 1er Cru, 92-95 40% whole bunch but much less evident than for example the Godelles. More crimson than purple, wit...

93-95 More crimson than purple. An intriguing bouquet with some elegance, very detailed, as there seems to be more of a mineral thread here. This h...

  92 More crimson than purple. A little reductive on the nose. More in the brawny style with a certain funkiness, which is probably not bacteri...

2020, Corton Renardes Grand Cru, 89-91 One single barrel. Powerful deep purple. A very solid if super-ripe bouquet, liqueur raspberry and sun-dried...

89-91 A new appellation (Les Guetottes, not sure if it will be on the label) from purchased fruit, picked later than most. Pretty red fruit on the ...

2022, Chassagne-Montrachet Les Chaumes,  89-9260 year old vines, converted from cordon to guyot training for more finesse. A vigorous mid purple, w...

88-90 Compared to the Volnay, Romaric Chavy’s Pommard is noticeably deeper in colour. Darker fruit on the nose but less expressive. Juicy raspberry...

96 Deep dark magenta. The bouquet suggests immense power, combined with some well-chosen oak. Ravishingly charming if clearly very ripe aromatics...

91-94 Light to medium colour, not much nose is evident, discreet red fruit on the palate, perhaps over discreet for this cuvée, light fresh stra...

  91-93 Just Chatelots and Sentiers in the blend as there was nothing from Chabiots this year. Just one barrel instead of 3.5, and made with 100%...

2020, Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, 93-96 This cuvée arrived in grape form and has been vinified with two thirds whole bunches. Huge ripe rich purp...

91-93 A blend of Chabiots, Chatelots and Sentiers. A pretty pink to ruby colour with an exceptionally elegant nose, very charming red berry fruit. ...

89-91 The domaine always owned a small plot but now have taken back some more, to make nearly half a hectare, so there is enough for a cuvée this y...

87-90 A slightly deeper denser colour. The nose has a nutty note suggesting a light oxidation of the sample. There is a good density to the fruit, ...

  88-90 Ruby with a lighter rim. The nose needs freshening up. Pretty red raspberry fruit on the mouth, well integrated oak, very pretty on the...

94-96 A complete and pure purple colour. The Petits Monts is backward in its intensity, supple and sensual on the palate with immense density. Ther...

92 An opaque purple black. Just a little bit soupy. Thick textured, firm tannins, perhaps from hydric stress. Now the wine fills out much more in...

90-93 Still in barrel like the rest below. Concentrated purple. Succulent yet with perfume. There is a fine tension to the dark fruit which cannot ...
