Beaune 1er Cru Les Tuvilains - 2002
Red | Beaune (Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France) |
17.00 - 24.99 €
|
|
Simple divine |
|
| Ambroise is one of the top winemakers of his generation, and his distinctive reds wring every nuance of flavour out of the grapes. 2002 was an exceptional red burgundy year, and this mature, powerful, herby, truffley, meaty beaune with a fine leafy finish is ready for drinking now, but will also cope with the first game dishes later on in the summer. | |

Explosive |
|
| Gérard Mouton’s pinot noirs have burst out of Burgundy like a rocket, with last week’s village givry now joined by this single-vineyard offering. This burgundy from the most important Côte Chalonnaise red wine village after Mercurey punches above its weight. Plenty of fine, fleshy, strawberry-charged spice with a gorgeous gamey finish. | |

Fancy |
|
| Burgundian rising star, Anne-Sophie Debavelaere, is clearly as talented a maker of red wines as white – this fancy beaune is a delight. Astonishingly, Debavelaere has reached this degree of competence without any formal training. What I loved most was its fine, silky texture and elegant, ripe, strawberry and rose-scented palate | |

Comte de Vogüé - 2001
Red | Chambolle-musigny (Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France) |
| 75.00 - 104.99 € | |
|
Spicy |
|
| Quite a complex nose, with a high-toned, spicy, earthy edge. Fresh and perfumed with a savoury seriousness to it. This wine has a bit of a split personality: it’s perfumed and inviting on the one hand, yet on the other it is spicy, savoury and assertive. The palate is fresh, savoury and quite structured with great balance. | |

Morgon, La Voûte St Vincent - 2006
Red | Morgon (Beaujolais, France) |
|
8.00 - 11.99 €

|
Pizzazz |
|
| No point celebrating summer without a good beaujolais, and this superior village or cru beaulolais stands out from the pack. Morgon is the second largest of the ten crus beaujolais and the second boldest after Moulin à Vent, renowned for its firm, chunky wines. This is a well-made, elegant, fleshy, plummy beaujolais with real pizzazz. | |

Domaine Blain-Gagnard - 2006
Red | Chassagne-montrachet (Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France) |
|
8.00 - 11.99 €
|
|
|
Pour BBQ |
|
| There was no denying the star quality of this pinot noir from the 2006 vintage. Domaine Blain-Gagnard is tiny, like most Burgundy estates, but this has oodles of seductive, light, spicy, beefy, truffley fruit, complete with an elegant, long, sweet, earthy finish. At this price you will want to snap up plenty of it. See you in the queue. | |

Fattoria Ormanni Chianti Classico - 2004
Red | Chianti Classico DOCG (Toscana, Italy) |
|
8.00 - 11.99 €
|
|
Good VFM |
|
| Chianti is a good summer standby red as its cherry-styled, violet-scented, faintly bitter fruit goes down well with al fresco summer meals that feature strong meats and cheeses. This hand-picked, part oak-aged Ormanni is predominantly sangiovese, but with 10 per cent cabernet sauvignon; expect lots of rich, leathery, savoury, spicy, chocolatey fruit. | |

a legend... |
|
| When Martine saw a barrow load of bottles wheeled into the kitchen, she stood still. She touched the bottles and lifted one up. “What is there in this bottle, Babette?” she asked in a low voice. “Not wine?” “Wine, Madame!” Babette answered “No, Madame. It is a Clos de Vougeot 1846!”. Karen Blixen, in Babette’s Feast, has captured the essence of Clos de Vougeot. It is not just a wine, but an emotion, a presence, an event... Not the 1846 - but the 2004 does live up to expectations | |
