2007 - ARRIVAL SPRING 2010
Domaine Marc Morey
St Aubin 1er Cru Charmois 2007, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 9 195.00 N/A 2010-2013 N/A
Domaine Guy Roulot
Meursault Meix Chavaux 2007, Domaine Roulot CASE12 4 395.00 N/A 2010-2016 N/A
"...fresh, cool and airy aromas of ripe lemon, acacia blossom and herbal hints that introduce intense, detailed and delicious middle weight flavors that culminate in a racy, vibrant and persistent finish. This is lovely with plenty of minerality." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Meursault Tessons Clos Mon Plaisir 2007, Domaine Roulot CASE6 2 275.00 N/A 2011-2018 N/A
"An expressive nose of lemon, lime, white peach, spice hints and ripe pear gives way to richer and fuller-bodied flavors that possess excellent intensity and detail on the powerful, focused, chiseled and moderately austere finish that displays a beguiling mouth feel. As good as the Tillets is, there is another dimension present here." Allen Meadows, Burghound
2006 - ARRIVAL SPRING 2009
Domaine Simon Bize
Bourgogne Blanc Les Perrieres 2006, Domaine Simon Bize CASE12 1 103.35 141.00 2009-2011 N/A
"An extremely discreet hint of wood frames fruity but more elegant and typical aromas of chardonnay fruit and citrus that introduces nicely focused barely middle weight flavors that possess a very subtle mineral hint and good if not truly special length." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Domaine Darviot-Perrin
Bourgogne Blanc 2006, Domaine Darviot-Perrin CASE12 4 110.00 148.65 2009-2012 84-86 BH
"A slightly atypical nose of straw, melon and floral notes leads to citrus-infused light to barely middle weight flavors that possess good detail and an attractive finishing mineral streak." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Meursault 1er Cru Charmes 2006, Domaine Darviot-Perrin  CASE12 3 440.00 528.15 2009-2015 90-92 BH
"An expressive and beautifully layered nose of citrus, yellow orchard fruits and a hint of roasted nuts is set off by a subtle wood toast note that is also picked up by the rich, full and generous flavors that possess an attractively textured finish that delivers simply superb intensity and persistence. The depth here is seriously impressive and this is worth a look." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Meursault 1er Cru Genevrieres 2006, Domaine Darviot-Perrin  CASE12 3 440.00 528.15 2009-2015 90-92 BH
"Mild reduction knocks down the nose yet the natural spicy seductiveness of a class Genevrières is still visible if less evident than usual at present. The flavors however suffer no such handicap as they are pure, refined and also marvelously delineated with lovely depth on the mouth coating and textured finish that is classy and long if not quite as intense. Still, this is also very much worth a look." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard
Chassagne Montrachet Blanc 2006, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard CASE12 3 210.00 263.65 2009-2014 88 BH
"A pungent nose of herb, resin and orange peel notes complements rich, full, forward and generous flavors that possess good mid-palate fat and enough extract to confer a seductive mouth feel on the otherwise straight forward and frank finish. This is delicious and if not elegant, it's not rustic either." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Boudriotte 2006, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard CASE12 12 255.00 315.40 2009-2015 88 BH
"Mild reduction cannot hide the ripe peach, apricot and crushed herb aromas that complement well the rich, full, naturally sweet and very forward, indeed even plump flavors that possess a textured mouth feel and enough extract that the is an almost chewy quality to the frank, direct and punchy finish. Decant first." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanee 2006, Dom Fontaine-Gagnard CASE12 1 350.00 424.65 2009-2015 92 BH
"A lightly exotic nose of peach, pear, spice and mango merges into very rich and notably full-bodied flavors brimming with dry extract as well as a fine mineral streak that adds lift to the deep, powerful and mouth coating finish that is wonderfully pure. This is a lovely wine and while it normally doesn't trump the Caillerets at this address, it does so in 2006." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Domaine Marc Morey
St Aubin 1er Cru Charmois 2006, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 13 189.43 240.00 2009-2012 89 BH
"A slightly riper nose of white flowers, white peach and lightly spiced pear gives way to attractively textured, forward and slightly sweet medium-bodied flavors that possess sufficiently buffering acidity that the impressively persistent finish comes across as quite dry and minerally. Worth a look as there is good quality here." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Puligny Montrachet 2006, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 4 230.00 286.65 2009-2013 N/A
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Virondot 2006, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 8 320.00 390.15 2009-2014 91 BH
"This is unusually ripe for this cru as the elevated placement of the vineyard typically makes for very cool and reserved wines when young. A green fruit, citrus and pear nose merges gracefully into refined, pure and focused flavors that are also a bit more powerful than usual though there is plenty of the hallmark minerality and vibrancy on the impressively long and fine finish. Lovely juice." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Pucelles 2006, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 2 420.00 505.15 2009-2016 92 BH
"A high-toned, pure and ripe nose that is dominated by honeysuckle and acacia blossom that are also picked up by the refined, naturally sweet and sappy flavors that are round, rich and supple yet remarkably intense and the intrinsic style and sophistication of the vineyard are very much on display. This is not the most concentrated example among this group of 1ers but it is perhaps the classiest. A great effort for such young vines." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Domaine Guy Roulot
Meursault Meix Chavaux 2006, Domaine Roulot CASE12 1 375.00 453.40 2009-2015 90-91 WA
"An attractively ripe nose features mostly orchard fruit aromas with apricot and yellow peach nuances and a touch of rose petal that can also be found on the round, rich, naturally sweet and generous medium-bodied flavors that are vibrant and I particularly like the fine acid/fruit balance on the sappy finish. Pretty if not deep." Allen Meadows, Burghound
2005
Domaine Marc Morey
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Vergers 2005, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 6 275.00 338.40 2009-2016 N/A
2004
Domaine Fontaine Gagnard
Batard Montrachet Grand Cru 2004, Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard CASE6 1 600.00 701.07 Now-2019 N/A
"I usually prefer Fontaine's Bâtard to his Criots but even though this is more aromatically elegant with its spicy white flower and peach aromas, it's no bigger, richer or more complex, at least not at present. Like the Criots though, this is more focused and precise than usual and I particularly like the beautiful convergence of impressive concentration with no loss of transparency or definition. In short, this is beautiful juice and it will benefit from at least 7 to 8 years in the cellar." Allen Meadows, Burghound
Domaine Marc Morey
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Vergers 2004, Domaine Marc Morey  CASE12 1 260.00 321.15 Now-2015 N/A
"A noticeably riper nose with hints of pain grillé and exotic fruit aromas plus strong citrus traces merge into detailed, complex, intense and beautifully balanced medium-bodied plus flavors that culminate in a rich, full and powerful finish. This is a complete wine with good upside potential." Allen Meadows, Burghound
2003
Domaine Marc Morey
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Virondot 2003, Domaine Marc Morey CASE12 1 260.00 321.15 Now-2010 89 BH
"This is always one of my favorite wines chez Morey and so it is again as it's clearly the best of these 1ers in 2003 as it has the most classically styled nose of elegant and very pure green apple and peach aromas that perfectly complement the fresh, elegant and very refined medium full flavors that are given lift and firmness by the obvious finishing minerality. This is lovely stuff and possesses excellent balance and persistence. " Allen Meadows, Burghound
Domaine Roulot
Meursault 1er Cru Perrieres 2003, Domaine Roulot CASE6 1 750.00 873.57 Now-2015 90 BH
"This is slightly but definitely fresher and brighter with a more discreet oak influence that complements the round but detailed and solidly if not brilliantly precise flavors that display lovely balance though not the sheer power and richness of the bigger wines in this range. In particular, the finish benefits from the pungent minerality as it adds both lift and firmness. In short, this is a fine if not genuinely great example of what is vintage in and vintage out usually a terrific wine." Allen Meadows, Burghound
