2015 Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet 92 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Puligny-Montrachet
Pale straw. Fresh, limey, floral with lovely restrained white fruit. Beautifully elegant with a nicely reductive gun flint undertone. Quite lean and elegant for the vintage. This restores faith. Classic Leflaive hazelnut nose develops with air. Really very lovely. Village weight and length, but top villages. ****

2012 Buisson-Charles Meursault Vieilles Vignes 83 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Meursault
Light mid to old gold. Gives the impression of being quite evolved. Rich nose, a touch of aldehyde but mainly about the beurre noisette initially. Rich and chewy in an almost visceral style. Similar to previous bottles but not given the chance to clean up and open up. Should have opened yesterday, but ultimately the wrong bottle for the occasion. ** only on the night.

2009 Domaine Michel Lafarge Volnay Vendanges Sélectionnées 89 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Volnay
Mid ruby. Just starting to hint at garnet. Similar familial nose to the 05 but with more red fruit and lift. A slightly meaty edge to the developing sous bois with some redcurrant and cherry. A nod to redder fruit, definition and more line here. Peony on the nose with air. Rustic would be harsh, but not a suave and sophisticated number, maybe lacking a little generosity of spirit. ***

2005 Domaine Michel Lafarge Volnay Vendanges Sélectionnées 87 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Volnay
Ever so slightly cloudy mid garnet. A touch high toned. Some sous bois. The acidity feels a little prominent. Quite floral with time against the farmyardy backdrop. Still a sense of tannin on the finish. Somewhat discombobulated currently. ***

2016 Domaine Ponsot Morey St. Denis Cuvée des Grives 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Morey St. Denis
Mid ruby. Lovely nose. A whiff of smoke and sense of early evolution. Really quiet together. Feels quite approachable for a 16, but strong familial resemblance to the 01. Really very attractive. ****

2001 Domaine Ponsot Morey St. Denis Cuvée des Grives 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Morey St. Denis
True to form. All sous bois and autumnal decay with mushrooms sprouting forth. Core of sweet fruit with a pinch of caramel. Joyous. ****

2017 Domaine Robert Chevillon Nuits St. Georges Vieilles Vignes 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges
Mid to full ruby. Lovely meaty Nuits nose. Mellow, meaty, nicely fresh. A hint of caramel. Some interest here. Does what it says on the label. Convincingly. ****

2017 Francois Confuron-Gindre Nuits St. Georges 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges
A little fuller in colour, mid to dark ruby. Darker fruited. A touch high toned. Some spice. Dense but with a sense of fragility. ***1/2

2017 Domaine Duroché Gevrey-Chambertin 90 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
Dense ruby. A touch high toned. Nicely ripe with some density and a savoury edge. Getting more savoury as it ages and it has now lost some of its attractive youthful gloss. Note quite as together as previously. A little here and there, though for my palate better than some would suggest.***1/2

2010 Domaine Denis Bachelet Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin
Dense ruby. Attractive nose. Some Gevrey character but also a squeeze of citrus in the vein of old Rioja. Attractive in a savoury rather than flashily fruited sense. Measured and ever so slightly two toned. ****

2018 Sylvain Cathiard Vosne-Romanée 91 Points
France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée
Dense ruby. Plush and rich. Dense velvet. Spicy nose. Less expressive than the MG. A density, in some ways understated.. 18 shows. Needs a decade. Promising. ***(*)

NV Deutz Champagne Brut Classic 88 Points
France, Champagne
Three to four years extra cellaring. Mid gold. Quite rich and broad on the nose. Mellow. Some edge on the finish. Decent, and better than previous examples of this. ***
