Grand Crus of Morey St-Denis Jan 26, 2021

Show notes

13 August 2020: Time to take a good look at the very best of Morey St Denis. Two wines from Clos de la Roche will face two from Clos St Denis: will producer or terroir lead the way? The two grand crus are intertwined but typically show quite different characters. Just as fascinating is the rivalry between Clos de Tart and Clos des Lambrays. For all these, I will be evaluating what role the winemaker plays and what we can attribute to the vineyard.

Wine Samples:

2009 Domaine des Lambrays, Clos des Lambrays, Grand Cru
2009 Domaine du Clos de Tart ‘Clos de Tart’ Grand Cru, Monopole
2009 Domaine Hubert Lignier, Clos de la Roche, Grand Cru
2010 Domaine Coquard Loison-Fleurot, Clos de la Roche, Grand Cru
2009 Clos St. Denis, Grand Cru, Domaine Gagey, Louis Jadot
2009 Domaine Ponsot, Clos St. Denis, Grand Cru

This initiative was set up by the wonderful 67 Pall Mall Club.

2014 White Horizontal Jan 26, 2021

Show notes

24 August 2020: Once in a while a vintage comes along which stands out just that little bit more. It is not always so obvious for white Burgundy, but a clear favourite for the vintage of the last decade in white must be: 2014! Modest (plus) in red but magical in white, 2014 has already provided much enjoyment, and the best whites have much more still to offer.

Wine Samples:

2014 Domaine de Montille Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières
2014 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé Grand Beauregard
2014 Domaine Coffinet-Duvernay Les Caillerets, Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru
2014 Domaine Thomas Morey Puligny-Montrachet La Truffiere Premier Cru
2014 Jean-Paul & Benoit Droin Montee de Tonnerre, Chablis Premier Cru
2014 Domaine Faiveley Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru

Pouilly-Fuissé Jan 19, 2021

Show notes

6 August 2020: The most dynamic white wine appellation in Burgundy at the moment is Pouilly-Fuissé. There has been a surge in the number of top flight producers at work, perhaps encouraged by the up-coming classification of 1ers crus. I take us through the characteristics of the different villages, which make up the appellation, outline which vineyards are about to be ranked 1er cru and illustrate just why Pouilly-Fuissé deserves to be back in the limelight.

Wine Samples:

2016 Joseph Burrier Château de Beauregard, Vers Cras
2017 Domaine J.A. Ferret, Hors Classe Les Ménétrieres
2017 Château des Quarts, Clos des Quarts
2017 Château des Rontets, Clos Varambon
2017 Eric Forest, Les Crays
2017 Domaine Barraud, En Buland

This initiative was set up by the wonderful 67 Pall Mall Club.

Top White Burgundy – Montrachet & friends Jan 19, 2021

Show notes

30 July 2020: I lead us through each of the different Montrachet grands crus, each with its own character as decided by its place on the slope and what is going on below the ground.

We delve into the detail of vintage and vigneron distinctions to complete this overview of White Burgundy’s finest hillside. The session is rounded out by a taste of one of the great vintages of Bonneau du Martray’s Corton-Charlemagne, a vintage which was not shown during the zoom dedicated to the domaine.

Wine Samples:

2005 Domaine Bonneau du Martray, Corton-Charlemagne
2015 Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard, Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet
2015 Domaine de la Vougeraie, Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet

Gevrey Clos St-Jacques in 2017 Jan 19, 2021

Show notes

23 July 2020: Whenever the question is asked:

Which 1er Cru vineyards in Burgundy might be promoted to Grand Cru? Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St-Jacques is always cited among the very first names due for promotion.

What makes it even more intriguing is that there are just 5 producers, and their holdings all run up and down the slope parallel to each other. It is rare to be able to sample all five from the same vintage at the same time to admire and contrast the different style of wine-making.

Join Jasper Morris MW for this in-depth view of Clos St-Jacques through the lens of the attractive and accessible 2017 vintage.

Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St-Jacques, Wine Samples:

2017 Domaine Armand Rousseau
2017 Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
2017 Domaine Bruno Clair
2017 Domaine Fourrier
2017 Domaine Louis Jadot
