秘密のセラー

Middle shoulder level. Bottle sticky. Stain on the label clear and brown color

The 2016 Puligny-Montrachet Village is wafting from the glass with aromas of waxy citrus rind, smoke and white flowers. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, pure and racy, with bright acids, elegantly glossy texture and a nicely defined finish.

The 2015 Saint-Véran 1er Jus is excellent, offering up a bright bouquet of citrus zest, crisp melon and wheat toast. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, pure and tensile, with a bright line of acidity and a cool profile that belies the vintage. This is one of the more elegant wines in Jean-Marie Guffens' portfolio in 2015.

The 2012 Pouilly-Fuissé “Extremis” has a very well-defined bouquet with scents of white peach, apricot blossom and granite, muted at first, but unfolding superbly in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with a harmonious, Meursault-like opening, a fine line of acidity and plenty of spice-tinged honeyed fruit toward the convincing finish. There is a sense of completeness to this Pouilly-Fuissé – a cut above the rest in 2012.

This brilliant white Hermitage from the top of the granite dome of this appellation offers notes of roasted hazelnuts, nectarine oil, citrus, quince and crushed rocks. Astonishingly full-bodied and rich, particularly in view of the vintage conditions

The 2008 Corton Blanc flows with mint, flowers, light honey and pears. It is a classy, understated wine that impresses for its balance and polish. Bright, floral notes reappear on the finish, adding brightness and lift.

Possessing sensational purity and freshness, yet with tons of richness and depth, the 2014 Condrieu Coteaux de Vernon sports a medium-gold color as well as killer notes of orange marmalade, flower oil, toasted bread, brioche and crushed rock-like minerality. It's a big wine, yet stays gorgeously pure, fresh and focused, and is a quintessential Condrieu.

The 2008 Ermitage le Meal Blanc is a serious, full-bodied, ripe and textured beauty that has lively acidity in its honeyed fruits, buttered-citrus and caramel aromas and flavors. Defying the vintage stereotype and possessing ample ripeness and depth

The Meal 2007 has stunning concentration, density, depth and texture. Still light/medium gold in color, it offers classic crushed-rock-like minerality, licorice, charcoal and sautéed peach characteristics to go with a lively, fresh, yet full-bore and decadent profile on the palate.

The 2016 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes has a clean and precise bouquet with cold stone and flint aromas, great articulation of the terroir here with underlying hints of orange pith and pink grapefruit. The palate is well balanced with a fine thread of acidity, waxy in texture with a fine sense of drive.

Trimbach's iconic Clos Sainte Hune comes from a 1.67 hectare plot on the Grand Cru Rosacker but is sold as Clos Ste Hune since 1919. The densely planted vines are pretty old (more than 50 years on average), with the oldest planted in the 1940s and the youngest in the 1980s. The 2013 Riesling Clos Ste Hune shows a very clear and deep, dusty/smoky, mineral nose which impressively reflects the Muschelkalk terroir. Rich, precise and pure also on the nobly textured and highly elegant palate this expressive and full-bodied Riesling is penetrating mineral and piquant but also very juicy. The finish is extremely long and complex.

The 2016 Meursault 1er Cru Sous le Dos d'Ane offers up a pretty bouquet of crisp Anjou pear, white flowers, hazelnut cream and wet stones. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, delicately textural and incisive, with brisk acids, a tight-knit but nicely concentrated core and a precise, racy finish.

The 2015 Meursault 1er Cru les Grand Charrons from Boisson-Vadot has an attractive bouquet with shaved almond and orange blossom scents that gently unfurl from the glass. The palate is well balanced with a twist of dried orange peel on the entry, sagging a little on the mid-palate but returning with a poised, ginger-infused finish.

This is a serious and complicated bottle with a multi-dimensional presentation of dark fruits, spice, floral notes, scorched earth and minerals. There's something incredibly charming about the wine's honesty and gulpability.

Red cherry, sweet herbs, earth throughout with roasted meat hints. Light and elegant style for Gevrey with slightly rugged middle, then a brighter finish. Ready to drink.

Undoubtedly one of the best Châteauneufs of the vintage. Full-bodied but wonderfully silky with age, it shows developing aromas and flavors of tree bark, cola, dried spices, red cherries and white button mushrooms. No hurry but this may be at its peak.

A refined, dark bouquet of black cherries, blackberries and some black plums, also spices and nascent dark florals. On palate, a rich, sweet-seeming entry. A little oxidation, earthy, showing sous bois and some porcini and black truffle. Still, black fruited and quite persistent. Some dried and freshly cut herbs. Refined tannins with refreshing acidity. Drinking at peak, but will hold.

The 2009 Pommard Les Epenots is a huge, powerful wine imbued with the essence of dark fruit, smoke, tar and licorice. This massively structured tannic wine appears to have a brilliant future ahead of it once it settles down in bottle.

Showing the sunny, supple and perfumed nature of the vintage, the 2011 Ermitage Les Greffieux gives up sweet red currants, blueberry, violets, graphite and spice in its medium to full-bodied, sexy style. Hard to resist now, it will evolve gracefully through 2026.

Le Moine 2007 Pommard Rugiens smells of ginger bread, mace, resin, and roasted red meats. Deeply marrow-rich, sirloin juice, spice-tinged flavors inform a palate surprisingly plush and texturally seductive for the vintage, leading to a long finish in which a sense of dark berry sucrosity as well as of freshness merges with smoke and crushed stone elements to complement the wine's uncanny sense of carnality.

The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les St Georges has a well defined bouquet, reserved at first but unfurling with wild strawberry and redcurrant fruit infused with minerals. The palate is medium-bodied and strict, and there is a touch of spice.

Includes some 1er cru fruit and averages over 60 year old vines.Very powerful and brooding. Easily could pass for an great 1er cru with depth, black fruit, tarry/roasted notes. Great energy and balancing structure. Drinking wonderfully.

Made in a lighter style, but still a full-bodied, powerful wine, the dark purple-hued 2007 Ermitage Le Pavillon reveals aromas of creme de cassis, black truffles, cold steel, and crushed rocks. Dense and tannic, with good acidity, resounding richness, and a substantial finish, it is a top-notch effort that should evolve for three decades.

Le Moine 2007 Vosne-Romanee Les Petits Monts are strikingly redolent of pink grapefruit and blood orange, along with bittersweet, iris-like floral perfume, fresh black fruits, and intimations of forest floor. This displays white wine-like vivacity and refreshment, its tannins entirely subsumed under a torrent of sheer fresh fruit and finishes with exhilarating impingement of citrus oils, brown spices, chalk, salt, and fresh berries.

Made from 50% whole cluster grapes. Elegant, very mineral with abundant dark fruit, bramble, cassis, and raspberry. Good structure. Accessible now but will improve with 2-5 years in cellar. Spectacular now but has the chance to be a very special wine.

Very delicate nose of green notes, stems, herbaceous, fine tobacco. On the palate classic Cabernet Franc: Herbaceous, green pepper, fine red fruit, some barn notes. Good grip, very elegant, very good balance, lean, juicy. Wonderful silky texture. Long finish with fine red fruit and garden herbs.

Le Moine 2007 Echezeaux smells of ripe plum, brown spices and wood smoke; offers ample, juicy, and invigoratingly tart-edged fruit and marrowy meatiness on the palate; and finishes with its tannins a bit awkwardly to the fore.

Le Moine 2007 Clos De La Roche is redolent of smoked meats, ripe red fruits, leather, and pungent spices including black pepper, all reminding of Saouma’s comment that this site can render Pinot a bit Northern Rhone Syrah-like. It finishes with sappy plum and red fruit persistence underlain by chalk and meat stock. The abundant tannins here are fine-grained and finely distributed.

Very good condition label. middle shoulder level. Small damage on the capsule. cork slightly pushed inside 0,5mm

bottom shoulder level. Some damage on the label. Good color bright and steel deep.

The 2012 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has an exquisite bouquet with fragrant wild strawberry, bergamot and forest floor that simmers with tension, subtle touches of cassis unfolding in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, slightly chalky tannins, over a layer of effervescent candied fruit – mandarin and apricot enriching the finish.
