100 points James Suckling: "This is very structured and framed with an almost red sensibility. Very phenolic. Full-bodied in a tightly wound ball with so much going on. Very pinot like. Mineral and stone. Shell and stone. Iodine. Vinous. The bubbles just fade into the finish of the wine, which goes on for minutes. Turns to toffee and salted caramel with time in the glass. One for the cellar. Great length. Blend of 53% Pinot Noir, 25% Pinot Meunier, 22% Chardonnay. Disgorged in beginning of 2020. " (11/2021) 99 points Decanter: "Just at the beginning of...

2008 Billecart-Salmon "Cuvée Nicolas François Billecart" NFB Brut Champagne
Top Pick!
98 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Based on 60% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, with 17% raised in barrels, the 2008 Champagne Nicolas François spent more than 150 months on its lees, with 2.9 grams per liter dosage. It pours a rich straw hue and is layered and long with aromas of truffle, apricot, croissant, floral orange blossoms, and marmalade. Full-bodied, it’s supple in texture, with a rounded mousse, and has a long-lasting, mouthwatering finish. Exceptionally well-balanced, it comes together seamlessly on the finish. This will be a wine to enjoy over the ...

96 points Decanter: "Starting to really come into its own, this is packed full of savoury blackberry, redcurrant and blueberry fruit with layers of liquorice, black chocolate, grilled cedar and a gentle lick of salinity through the finish. Excellent quality, and now starting to open - it was a baby at the 10 years on tasting but has inched open over the past three years. Harvest from October 2-15, with relatively low yields of 34hl/ha. (JA)" (02/2021) 96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2008 Mouton Rothschild checks in as a blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon and ...

95 points Decanter: "Montrose always takes its time, and this is still very much young and austere but with a commanding presence. It's a classically structured Montrose showing crushed slate, tobacco and bilberry and there's no question that it has plenty of life ahead of it. The tannins are among the most chewy on display so far, the fruit tucked in between the layers of acidity, the overall feel one of subdued power. Give it another few years before opening then settle in for the long haul. (JA)" (12/2017) 95 points James Suckling: "The purity and p...

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "The aromas of smoky new wood follow through to the wood flavors on the palate. However, it's the powerful sweet black cherry and red berry fruit flavors, layered with fruit tannins and acidity, that are driving this impressive wine. For aging at least six years. (RV)" (07/2011) 93 points Wine & Spirits: "2008 Beaune Clos des Mouches Drouhin has the largest holding (about 35 acres) in this walled vineyard neighboring Pommard; they have farmed it under biodynamics since the 1990s. The tannins give the wine a huge personality, ...

92 points John Gilman: "The 2008 Clos de la Maréchale was showing outstanding potential at the time of my visit. The really lovely and classic bouquet offers up a superb mélange of red and black cherries, a touch of game, a stunningly pure base of soil, a bit of new leather, woodsmoke and fresh herbs in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very, very suave on the attack, with sappy core of fruit, ripe tannins, excellent focus and balance and a very long, tangy and youthful finish. The inherent elegance of the 2008 vin...

91 points John Gilman: "The 2008 Mugnier Chambolle AC was showing even better out of bottle than it did at the time of my November visit a year before to taste the wines out of barrel. The bouquet offers up a beautiful and very pure mélange of strawberries, cherries, blood orange, a touch of cocoa and a superb base of chalky minerality. On the palate the wine is medium-full, deep and intensely flavored, with great purity and focus, fine mid-palate depth and a very long, tangy and modestly tannic finish. A classic Chambolle AC this year! " (01/2011) Int...

91-93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Barrel sample: Smoky aromas, considerable new wood, spice and blackcurrant stalkiness. There is a definite amount of fruit, but the wood does dominate. The final texture is dark and dry. (RV)" (12/2009) 92 points Jeb Dunnuck: "I loved the 2008 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut Brion, and it’s one hell of a second wine. Upfront notes of dried tobacco, blackcurrants, loamy earth, and cedary spice all emerge from the glass, and the wine is medium to full-bodied, with sweet tannins and gorgeous purity of fruit. It’s a satisfying...

Rich and structured. A truly great blanc de blancs. Such intensity and power. Drink or hold. (JS)" (07/2022) 94 points Wine Enthusiast: "The Chardonnay in this mature Champagne has developed nutty characteristics allied to a creamy texture that is totally ready to drink. This is a very fine wine from a great vintage. Drink now. (RV)" (10/2021) 91 points Jeb Du...

96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Unquestionably one of the gems in the vintage is the 2008 Pontet-Canet, which reminds me of the 2005 with its concentrated, deep, powerful style. Beautiful dark fruits, graphite, obvious minerality, and classic Pauillac lead pencil notes all emerge from this still youthful, full-bodied, and pure 2008 that’s 4-5 years away from maturity and will keep for 30+ years. Hats off to Alfred Tesseron for another awesome wine that ranks up with the crème de la crème of the vintage." (02/2019) 96 points Wine Advocate: "A candidate for the ...

95 points James Suckling: "Lots of strawberry and lemon aromas with some stone undertones, following through to a full body with a dense, layered palate with medium bubbles that give the wine form and tension. Very vinous and intense. Comes across dry and structured. Drinkable now, but better in a year or two. (JS)" (07/2022) 94 points Wine Enthusiast: "Now properly mature, this ripe wine has great toastiness as well as a tight texture and minerality. Dominated by Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs, the blend is taut, with beautiful acidity and elegan...

96 points Wine Advocate: "A candidate for the wine of the vintage, Pontet Canet’s 2008 boasts an opaque purple color as well as copious aromas of sweet blueberries, blackberries and black currant fruit intertwined with lead pencil shavings, subtle barbecue smoke and a hint of forest floor. Full-bodied, with fabulous richness, texture and tremendous freshness, this first-growth-like effort is more developed than the uber-powerful 2010. Give it 5-8 years of cellaring and drink it over the following three decades. Bravo! (RP)" (05/2011) 95 points Wine Ent...

97 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Possibly the wine of the vintage, the 2008 Pavie has the elegance of the Pavie Decesse and the power of the Mondotte. It’s a brilliant, sexy beauty loaded with notions of crème de cassis, blackberries, spice box, and licorice, with a classic Saint-Emilion-like liquid rock minerality. This all carries to a full-bodied Saint-Emilion that offers loads of fruit and texture, yet remains fabulous polished, elegant, and balanced. It’s a wine that builds incrementally on the palate, with beautiful depth of fruit and ripe tannins. Bravo to...

93 points Wine Spectator: "A lovely traditional style, with macerated black currant and cherry fruit liberally laced with black tea, sandalwood, incense and mulled spice notes. Very stylish, with mineral and shiso leaf notes gliding through the peppery yet silky finish. (JM)" (10/2010) 92 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2008 Tardieu-Laurent Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Spéciale is100% Grenache, from 80-100 year old vines and sandy soils, that’s aged all in new oak casks, It’s meaty and round, displaying ripe aromas of smoked meats, lavender, wild herbs, and blac...

93 points Wine Enthusiast: "Big, fruity, mature wine, showing a petrol character as well as a rounded texture and a shot of minerality. The wine is both chewy and generous, packed with fruit skins and green bean-acidity. It is ready to drink, very fresh. *Cellar Selection* (RV)" (10/2013) 91 points Wine Spectator: "Racy and distinctive, with lovely Jonagold apple, chamomile, quince and persimmon notes coursing along, while a mouthwatering mineral edge adds spine on the finish. Nice tension and length. (JM)" (11/2012)

2008 Domaine Trapet Chambertin Grand Cru (Pre-Arrival) (Pre-Arrival)
New!
96 points John Gilman: "The 2008 Trapet Chambertin is a magical bottle of wine. The celestial bouquet soars from the glass in a mélange of red and black cherries, plums, grilled meat, coffee bean, woodsmoke, a touch of fresh herbs and a profound base of soil. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very intensely flavored, with great focus and length, a rock solid core of pure fruit and a very long, ripely tannic and utterly seamless finish. A profound Chambertin. (Drink between 2018-2050)" (12/2009) 94 points Wine Advocate: "The 2008 Cha...

James Suckling: "Very attractive aromas of incense and blueberries. Medium to full body, very fine tannins and a pretty integration of fruit. Well done for the vintage. Drink now or hold." (03/2015) Wine Enthusiast: "In the far north of the Haut-Médoc, Château Coufran is under the same ownership as Verdigan. It has perhaps a more austere character than its stablemate, with also more potential for aging. The fruit is structured and solid, a very textured wine.

Better in 2020 but beautiful now. Decant before serving." (06/2016) 95 points Wine Advocate: "One of the superstars of the vintage, this classic Montrose is not as showy or opulent as the 2010, 2009 or 2003, but it offers a dense purple color followed by gorgeously sweet black raspberry and black currant fruit intermixed with loamy, earthy, forest floor notes, a fl...

Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2008 Dom Pérignon Brut Champagne (98DC, 98JD, 98JH, 98JS, 98VN, 96JG, 96RP, 96WS). Vinous: "The 2008 Dom Pérignon is a huge, powerful Champagne and also clearly one of the wines of the vintage. This is one of the most reticent bottles I have tasted. So much so that I am thinking about holding off opening any more bottles! The 2008 has always offered a striking interplay of fruit and structure. Today, the richness of the fruit is especially evident. Readers who own the 2008 should be thrilled, but patience is a must. (AG)" (11/2021)

95 points Wine Advocate: "One of the top successes of the vintage, this blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot was harvested between October 8 and 24. The late harvest ensured perfect ripeness as evidenced by the sweet bouquet of black cherries, lead pencil shavings, cassis and subtle barbecue smoke. Well-balanced with good acidity, ripe tannins, medium to full body and a layered mouthfeel, this excellent 2008 can be drunk now and over the next 15+ years.

Jeb Dunnuck: "A gem from the Left Bank is the 2008 Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, which comes from just one-third of the total production and is 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot. This brilliant Saint-Julien boasts a still vivid ruby/purple color as well as a head-turning bouquet of crème de cassis, high-class smoke tobacco, truffle, and some gravelly, rocky minerality.

The palate is medium-bodied with fine but quite rounded tannin that frame the pure blackberry and raspberry fruit. There are touches of white pepper and clove towards the finish, completing quite a superb Margaux from Thomas Duroux. Equal with Château Margaux? It might even be better... (NM)" (02/2018)
