  • 2002 Domaine de Montille Volnay 1er Cru Les Brouillards 90 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Volnay 1er Cru

    Light bright garnet. Nicely mellow sous bois. Some talk of corniness but I don’t think so — maybe a bit mute cf previous bottles but served a little warm and the glasses don’t help. A point and nicely relaxed. Sweetens with air and the fruit strengthens. One better contemplated than speed-dated. Not the best bottle of this but enough interest if you look. ***1/2

  • 2002 Domaine de Montille Volnay 1er Cru Taillepieds 93 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Volnay 1er Cru

    A little more stuffing here. A density of fruit. Redder fruited and with a mineral line, spine without austerity. More poise and breeding here. Polished. ****

  • 2002 Simon Bize Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Vergelesses 90 Points

    France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru

    Full garnet. Again, that characteristic hint of coal tar that I seem to get with abide regardless of vintage. Good density of fruit, dark and savoury, but a little herby. Not my style.***1/2
