2023 La Chablisiènne Collaboration Petit Chablis "Cuvee Centenaire" ($19.99)

Wine Advocate's Neal Martin writes: "La Chablisienne is one of Chablis’ most high-profile cooperatives and a great success story. Founded back in 1923 and still going strong, it is said that they oversee approximately one-quarter of the region’s production, around 300 individual growers. Therefore, just like Georges Duboeuf in Beaujolais or Louis Jadot in the Cote d’Or, it is important that they maintain standards irrespective of high volumes, since their size ensures that they have an ambassadorial role for Chablis, for ordinary punters perhaps seeking to broaden their horizons."

We've long admired the wines of La Chablisienne for their consistency and quality along with their exceptional price point. While Petit Chablis can be on the leaner side, that's not the case with this generous Chardonnay. It offers up ripe citrus fruit with notes of mineral and honey and plenty of stuffing. This is an awesome value Chablis.

Aaron Hughes | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 06, 2026

So cool that we have another private label wine, and even better that I like it this much. The nose opens generously, just a little touch of something tropical that almost seems to blow away before coming in with a lot more classic apple/pear with citrus behind it. The palate is decidedly fresh and vibrant, dancing across the palate this great line of acidity with a chalky wake behind it pushes inexorably through until the finish. There's this richness on the palate that is just really so inviting and keeps making me go back for another sip, there's a weight and gravitas to this that I don't expect from a Petit Chablis, and this will be an incredibly easy bottle to put into people's hands.

Gary Westby | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 06, 2026

What an incredible value in Chablis! Alex Pross did an incredible job in selecting the right partner and the right lots for this exceptional Petit Chablis, and I was impressed with just how much texture, vivacity and length this bottle delivered for under $20. If you are looking for a great, clean bottle of white wine for a very fair price, look no further!

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: December 23, 2025

Thank God for Petit Chablis! Its the source of delicious, under-$20 Chablis that consistently flows from Burgundys northernmost appellation. The 2023 La Chablisienne K&L Collaboration Petit Chablis is absolutely brilliant, with beautiful notes of sea breeze, flint, citrus zest, and white flowers. On the palate, its bright and zippy, with flavors of lime, pear, and other citrus notes, all perfectly balanced against the crisp acidity. This gives the wine great length, complexity, and persistenceremarkable for a humble Petit Chablis. Its a stellar offering and a wonderful introduction to Chablis at an incredibly affordable price.

Whether you're interested in trying a white Burgundy for the first time or simply looking for serious value, this is an outstanding choice. It's an expressive and refined wine with a pleasing texture, fresh acidity and wonderful length. It would be difficult to find a better Chablis at this price.

Scott Beckerley | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 16, 2026

I'll admit it. Chablis is one of my very favorite white wines. I generally prefer Sauvignon Blanc but, when Chardonnay is clean, crisp and pure, I love it. That is definitely the case with this bottling. Such beautiful apple and pear fruit buoyed up by soft citrus and clean minerals. A very fine edge of acidity adds additional interest. This is also a great selection if you are trying to experiment with Chardonnay from France that is eminently affordable. In fact, this bottling tastes much further up the dollar scale! Chablis of this caliber and price is not going stay in inventory very long!

Aaron Hughes | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 06, 2026

The nose is really classic, but I mean this in the best of ways. It's got a real sense of familiarity when you stick your nose in, the brain clicks and goes oh yes, I know this particular creature, in fact we've met before. Well, I guess it's a wine not a creature, but the whole sentiment still stands. Really pretty ripe apple, a little bit of warm pear, and then some pithy citrus zest and white flowers. The palate has this beautiful depth to it that you could almost fall into, and then once you get there it has a bit more weight on the palate, really giving me what I'm looking for here. I absolutely love this bottle and I can already tell I'm going to be taking a few home for sure. I think I'm going to try it with sushi first, I don't know if that's a controversial choice or not but there's a savory note that lingers on the finish that is giving me some strong umami vibes.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: December 23, 2025

Great Chablis doesnt have to break the bank, and the 2023 La Chablisienne Collaboration Estate Chablis Cuvée Centenaire is a stunning value! Pithy notes of orchard fruits, citrus accents, flint, and crushed seashells leap from the glass, while the palate unfolds with vibrant iodine, citrus, and orchard fruit flavors on a sleek, layered texture. This wine is smooth and vibrant, with excellent acidity and balance. Its so good, it feels more like a 1er Cru than a village-level offering. Enjoyability here is off the chartsdefinitely a solid 10 out of 10.

2024 Domaine Paul Pernot Bourgogne Aligoté ($23.99)

Cary Herrman | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 14, 2026

Bright and precise, this Aligote makes a compelling case for Bugundy's most underestimated white grape. Fresh lemon zest and green apple set the tone, accented by white florals and a touch of crushed stone. The palate is brisk and linear, driven by lively acidity and just enough texture to keep balanced. Clean, mineral, and refreshingly direct for the finish, this is a wine that does it's job exceptionally well - and then politely asks for another pour.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 09, 2026

Aligote has definitely benefited from the warmer vintages and the 2024 Paul Pernot Aligote is wonderful. Cool white fruit deftly mixes against savory notes of Thyme and menthol. This Aligote is so distinctive while retaining that classic freshness, acidity and verve. Lovers of Aligote would be well served to grab a few of these bottles!

2024 Domaine Paul Pernot Côte d'Or Bourgogne Blanc ($32.99)

In the case of Domaine Paul Pernot, the vigneron tradition runs back about 200 years. Although Paul Pernot founded the domaine in 1959, the family had been growing and making wine long before that—mostly for the Drouhin family. Now the third generation of Pauls is learning the classic, careful farming and winemaking that makes this domaine such a success. Based in Puligny-Montrachet, the Pernots touch some of the best Chardonnay vines on earth. But the care used on their high end wines extends all the way down through to their Bourgogne Blanc (still largely Puligny). As a general rule, the Pernots employ a very transparent winemaking style, designed to highlight the purity of fruit, and its natural expression. The Pernots use well-made French oak barrels, a small percentage of which are new, a little batonnage, and light filtration and fining, bottling just prior to the next year’s harvest—all the methods that have come to come to be traditional in Burgundy, but all in moderation, with a good sense of what the fruit requires.

Cary Herrman | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 14, 2026

Elegant without being showy, this Bourgogne Blanc delivers classic Cote d'Or character in a very approachable frame. Ripe pear and yellow apple are layered with subtle citrus, toasted almond, and a whisper of wet stone. The palate is supple yet focused, with well-integrated acidity carrying a gentle creaminess through the mid-palate. The finish is polished, mineral tinged, and persistent. A refined expression of Chardonnay that proves restraint can still be deeply satisfying.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 09, 2026

The consistent improvement in quality of Bourgogne blanc across the board in Burgundy is admirable and it is clearly evident here as well. Bright and fresh with notes of orchard fruits, flint and wet stone this feels a bit like a baby Puligny Montrachet. Tough tot beat this wine when it comes to quality-to-ptice-ratio.

2024 Domaine Paul Pernot Puligny-Montrachet ($79.99)

Cary Herrman | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 14, 2026

Focused and refined, this Puligny-Montrachet captures the village's tension and clarity. Notes of lemon oil, ripe orchard fruit, and white blossom unfold alongside a distinct chalky minerality. The palate is poised and precise, with bright acidity framing a subtle, savory richness through the mid-palate. The finish is long, clean, and unmistakably Puligny. A classic expression that manages to be both serious and dangerously drinkable.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 09, 2026

This wine literally knocked my socks off..it is that good! So pure, fresh and chiseled this wine literally jumps from the glass with intoxicating aromas of Orchard fruits and wets stone. These aromas are translated perfectly to the palate where they shimmer thanks to the ample acidity which gives the palate a chiseled feel.

The 2024 Domaine Paul Pernot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières radiates honeyed pear and soft chamomile notes, with a subtle whisper of vanilla bean on the finish. Though definitely dry, a flash of candied lemon peel brings lift and energy, playing beautifully against its mouthwatering minerality. Simply put, this is a gorgeous white Burgundy to enjoy now or lay down in the cellar ideally, you can do both.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 09, 2026

Paul Pernot is the largest single landowner in the Les Folatieres 1er Cru site and they make one of the most distinguished offerings. This wine is mind-blowing from the first sniff of the glass throwing off intense aromatics of white peach, nectarine and flint. The purity of fruit juxtaposed against fresh Alpine water of stone sensation makes this wine irresistible.

2024 Domaine Paul Pernot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Clos de la Garenne" ($129.99)

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 09, 2026

Garenne is one of the more underrated vineyard sites in Puligny Montrachet. It consistently produces wines of wonderful depth and complexity and in 2024 in the hands of Paul Pernot the result is wonderous. The fruit here bends more towards pear and apple while retaining that tell-tale verve and cut the 2024s will be known for.

2024 Domaine Paul Pernot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Chalumaux" ($129.99)

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 09, 2026

Chalumaux is another often overlooked 1er Cru site and in 2024 it has definitely delivered the goods. Tons of yellow orchard fruits spill out of the glass with sexy aromas of spice and flint mixing into a palate awash in pure orchard fruit flavors and subtle hints of oak. The drive and energy here really sets it apart and delivers a classic Puligny Montrachet experience.

2024 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau Bourgogne Aligoté ($22.99)

2024 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau St-Aubin ($44.99)

John Downing | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 26, 2026

After sampling this at a recent staff tasting, I was immediately reminded not only how excellent the wines of Langoureau are but also why we've continue to import them. This wonderful Chardonnay offers soft, ripe lemon fruit and mineral, fresh acidity and exceptional overall balance. Considering the elevated prices of Burgundy, this is an impressive value.

2024 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau St-Aubin 1er Cru "En Remilly" ($59.99)

While Domaine Sylvain Langoureau may not be a household name, we anticipate it will become a go-to producer for those who enjoy artfully crafted wines. This family-run estate does everything by hand, is committed to low yields, and focuses on conveying each site's distinctive terroir. Producer notes from Allen Meadows for Burghound: "Sylvain Langoureau has been directing this 9 ha domaine since 1989 which he says is now farmed entirely organically." (06/2020)

John Downing | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 26, 2026

"En Remilly" reflects the best of St-Aubin as it's the finest vineyard within the zone. This was featured at our recent staff and consumer tastings and was met with near universal approval. It really stood out in a very serious line-up of white Burgundies for it's richness, depth and overall complexity and value. If you appreciate great white Burgundy, look no further.

2024 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau St-Aubin 1er Cru "Les Frionnes" ($59.99)

2024 Château de la Charrière Chassagne-Montrachet "Les Champs Morjot" ($59.99)

Château de la Charrière is one of our most popular direct import producers and a label that easily represents the best bang for your buck we carry in Burgundy. Formerly run by Yves Girardin, the business is now run by his young son Benoit, who has modernized the winemaking since his first vintage in 2011.

Kerry Kennell | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 20, 2026

The 2024 Château de la Charrière Chassagne-Montrachet Les Champs Morjot is the kind of wine that says all the right things right off the get-goplease, thank you, those are great glasses, nice work todaywhile holding the door open with a smile. Everything is right where it should be: notions of apple tarte tatin with a light, flaky crust, bright lemon zest with a touch of pith, and a subtle apple finish. Savory notes of flint and Marcona almond add poise and balance, keeping the experience polite and even a little bit flirty. Its a fantastic value for such a handsome, thoroughly pleasing sipequally enjoyable on its own or alongside a roast chicken dinner, or at brunch with a mushroom and spinach quiche.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 19, 2026

One of my perennial favorite values the Chateau de la Charriere Chassagne Montrachet "Les Champs Morjot" in 2024 may be the greatest rendition I have ever tasted from the winery. 2024 has produced amazing white Burgundy that rivals past great vintages like 2014 and 2017 with wines of admirable cut, verve, precision as well as beautifully fruited. The 2024 Chateau de la Charriere Chassagne Montrachet is not only fantastic but it represents the best value we currently are carrying in Chassagne Montrachet by $20 a bottle and it easily stacks up against wines double the price from Chassagne Montrachet. The aromas here are spot on with subtle notes of orchard fruit and citrus zest with hints of spice and wet stone while the palate is electric with bursts of spicy citrus and tangerine oil. Textured and complex with racy acidity throughout this is a delicious white Burgundy that punches far above its price-point.

2023 Domaine Gérard Tremblay Chablis "Vieilles Vignes" ($24.99)

Gerard Tremblay is officially en retrait, although his retirement is like that of many growers in that he continues to work, both in the vineyards and the cellar. His son Vincent Tremblay has now taken over the reins. They farm an impressive 35 hectares (about 90 acres) of vines, in appellations from Petite Chablis to Grand Cru Vaudesirs. The wines are terrific and extremely well-priced. Tremblay’s style is to press very carefully and slowly, to avoid extracting harsh or green tannins from the seeds. Then after a 24-hour settling, the wine is racked gently off the gross lees into temperature controlled tanks for a slow fermentation. He uses a small amount of old oak on some of his better wines, for texture rather than for flavor.

John Downing | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 26, 2026

In addition to the Petit Chablis, we are also taken with the outstanding "VV" cuvee. This showcases the depth and character of older vines and offers greater concentration and length. Tremblay uses minimal new oak so the fruit truly shines. Impressive.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 04, 2026

I am always a huge fan of old vines when it comes to Burgundy because I believe they help to create a wine of deeper concentration of both flavors and aromas. This is definitely the case for the 2023 Gerard Tremblay Chablis Vieilles Vignes which is an astonishingly good wine. A step up from the Petit Chablis the Vieilles Vignes bursts from the glass with aromas of wet stone, flint, crushed rock and lemon Verbena. The palate has remarkable depth, precision and verve with mineral and citrus zest flowing across the palate from the moment it hits your lips all the way to the fine, long finish. This is a brilliant Chablis value.

This is a classic. Aged entirely in stainless steel, it is a bright, minerally Chardonnay that offers surprising depth and freshness for a wine at this price. Tremblay makes some of the finest value Chablis we've come across and we think fans of this category will truly appreciate this impressive entry level wine.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 04, 2026

The seemingly more difficult task annually is trying to find a great everyday Burgundy for under $20, luckily the 2023 Gerard Tremblay Petit Chablis has arrived! This is a stellar value that jumps out of the gate with beautiful aromas of sea breeze, crushed oyster shells and citrus zest while the palate is a lovely blend of flint and lemon/lime flavors. The cut and balance here is admirable and this wine is in its ideal drinking window for fans of young, zesty Chablis.

Cote de Lechet is a rather large vineyard that is perfectly exposed to the south-east. Here the fruit ripens early and produces wines of intense white fruit with floral hints . The 2023 Domaine Gerard Tremblay is a great example of why Cote de Lechet is so sought after with white flowers, flint and hints of lemon and grapefruit while the palate is bursting with rich citrus notes and subtle hints of flint and stone. This is a ready to drink, full-bodied Chablis bursting with pretty fruit that is impossible to ignore.

The vineyard of Beauroy shares many similarities with that of Cote de Lechet as far as exposure and ripening which imbues it with rich fruit and power. Beauroy may lack some of the finesse and cut that Cote de Lechet has but it makes up for it with deeper core of fruit and power. Bursting at the seams with citrus and stone notes with hints of orchard fruits the 2023 Gerard Tremblay is a great crossover for the California Chardonnay drinker.

This is definitely the most complex and minerally of the Tremblay line-up. It's a dynamic wine with loads of personality and flavor, especially on the finish. It over delivers at the price. Try with seafood, white meats and vegetable dishes.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 04, 2026

The vineyard of Montmains is large and produces notably complex Chablis that ages extremely well. The 2023 Gerard Tremblay Chablis 1er Cru "Montmains" is a great example of the depth and complexity that this vineyard can deliver under a masterful winemaker such as Vincent Tremblay. The wine is rich with notes of white flowers, hazelnut, flint and citrus notes while the palate is bright and lively with hits of citrus and orchard fruits that seamlessly run from the front palate all the way to the finish. A classic example of a great Chablis vineyard.

2023 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé ($32.99)

88-91 points Burghound: "Note: mostly from Fuissé fruit with the addition of a small percentage from Vergisson; 60% wood aging. Here the wood treatment is more apparent though by no means invasive on the pretty, even elegant, nose of white flowers, pear, apple and crushed fennel. I very much like the texture of the notably finer medium-bodied flavors that possess good vibrancy, all wrapped in a clean and attractively dry finale that could also stand to develop more complexity." (10/2024)

90 points Jasper Morris: "Pale lemon yellow, with a touch of coconut. This has impressive weight for the blended Pouilly Fuissé, orchard fruit, fully integrated oak, adequate structure and length. Drink from 2027-2031. Tasted Jun 2025." (02/2026)

Vinous: "The 2023 Pouilly-Fuissé is the flagship cuvée from the estate and comes from 12 of the 19 hectares of vine. This has a very pure bouquet, quite perfumed with yellow plum and light lanolin aromas. It is a "sunny" nose. The palate is well balanced with a touch of reduction, just a patina of wood to be subsumed. A little creaminess on the finish from the 10% new oaksimpatico with the concentration. (NM)" (06/2025)

2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Les Crays" ($59.99)

Exquisite on the palate, all white fruit, the right trace of acidity across the palate and very long indeed. Les Crays was made but never sold before 2020. Drink from 2027-2035. Tasted Mar 2024." (04/2024)

91-93 points Burghound: "More moderate, though by no means discreet, wood influence suffuses the nose of essence of pear-apple and pretty floral wisps. There is excellent richness and mid-palate volume to the vibrant medium weight plus flavors that culminate in a clean, agreeably dry and citrus-inflected finale. This is presently quite compact and a wine that should have no trouble progressively integrating the wood. Worth considering. *Burghound Sweet Spot!*" (10/2023)

92 points Vinous: "There are just two casks of the 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Crays 1er Cru, which is one more than the previous vintage. It has a beautiful and pure nose, showing orange pith, yellow plum and light slate-like aromas that are very well-defined. The palate is taut and fresh with fine acidity, elegant and poised with a mineral-driven finish. Excellent.(NM)" (08/2024)

Scott Beckerley | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

The nose on this release is an interesting combo of clean minerals, iodine, white pear and white apple fruit pulp. On the palate, though clean, there is a distinct creaminess, with caramel cream, mellow lemon and orange flavors. The long finish is citrusy, with minerals and lingering tartness. Pretty much the best two worlds of mouthfeel that is moderately rich with bracing cleanliness.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

The "Les Crays" vineyard is tucked underneath the crag of Vergisson which allows it to get plenty of sunlight coupled with cool, long evening shade. The resulting wine is fantastic with hints of flint, wet stone and citrus essence on the nose. The palate is dense and energetic with an oily texture and citrus flavors throughout nicely buffered by hints of flinty minerality. Wonderful density and complexity give this wine and powerful feel reminiscent of a 1er Cru Meursault.

2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Les Vignes Blanche" ($42.99)

90-93 points Burghound: "Pretty and more elegant aromas include those of the hallmark floral scents that are nuanced by hints of essence of pear, star anise and markedly more moderate wood influence. The dense and unusually powerful and even opulent larger-bodied flavors exude evident minerality on the sappy, refined, agreeably dry and youthfully austere finale. This is classy and sophisticated and worth checking out." (08/2023)

92 points Jasper Morris: "Glowing lemon and lime colour. A very elegant bouquet for Pouilly-Fuissé, with the little sandalwood touch from the oak. Nicely balanced between evidently ripe fruit and the acidity behind. A little touch of exoticism to finish, long and fine. Accessible and agreeable, this has come a long way since last year's slightly awkward barrel tasting." (04/2024)

90 points Vinous: "The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Vignes Blanches 1er Cru comes from 1.2 hectares of vines on brown clayey soil over marl. It has an attractive bouquet with orchard fruit, chamomile and a touch of toffee apple. Fine delineation. The palate is well-balanced with fine weight and good tension. It is not the most complex of Burrier's Premier Crus, but there is a pleasing length. Fine.(NM)" (08/2024)

Matthew Landau Hassan | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

Fresh, classic, and beautifully composed, Les Vignes Blanches showcases the pure, elegant side of Mâconnais Chardonnay. The nose is lifted with green apple, lemon blossom, and chalk. The palate is crisp and energetic with bright citrus, subtle creaminess, and saline minerality. The finish is clean and refreshing, making this an excellent choice for both casual sipping and refined food pairings

Scott Beckerley | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

With a little airing, the nose of the Les Vignes Blanche was coaxed out to play. It certainly did and the reward was scents of stone fruits, a little beeswax, and subdued yellow fruits. On the palate, the texture is rather mouth-coating with poached pears, a nice bit of cooked caramel and nectarine. This one, for me, was the most mouth-filling of the series.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 10, 2025

The "Les Vignes Blanche" 1er Cru vineyard is on the slope above the 1er Cru vineyard "Les Clos" resting on soil similia in composition to soils found in Cote de Nuits like Vosne Romanee Les Reignots. This unique soil creates a wine of elegance with wight, length and a sense of harmony rarely found in a white Burgundy under $40. The 2022 Chateau de Beauregard Pouilly Fuisse 1er Cru "Les Vignes Blanche" has a beautiful bouquet of pithy kumquat, nectarine and peach aromas while the palate is striking in its purity and substance with flavors of orange marmalade, fresh apricot and pear flavors. The complexity and layers here are perfectly intertwined with the intense fruit and bright acidity all of which makes this wine a terrific find!

2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Les Menetrieres" ($54.99)

94 points Tim Atkin: "This is a high-wire act of balance between pitch-perfect ripe fruit and a waterfall ofscintillating, crispy acidity. The nose pushes out of the glass with dried floral notescombining with peach fuzz and scented nectarine pit. Nuances of fresh bread crumbs givea gentle suggestion of light lees and oak influence. This will easily show well for five or sixyears and likely more. " (01/2024)

90-93 points Burghound: "Here too there is ample floral influence to the white orchard fruit, citrus confit, spice and oak trimmed nose. As one would reasonably expect, there is excellent volume, power and concentration to the broad-shouldered flavors that possess a less refined texture on the balanced and impressively long finale that also exhibits a touch of bitter lemon character. Blind, this could easily pass for a smaller scaled Bâtard-Montrachet." (08/2023)

93 points Jasper Morris: "A lovely green and yellow colour. The beautifully noble nose is enhanced by its exuberance. Full and round yet with this superb backbone. So much complexity and holds itself very well. There is a huge amount of wine here, but worn lightly. Drink from 2026-2035. Tasted Mar 2024." (03/2024)

92 points Vinous: "The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Ménétrières 1er Cru comes from a vineyard with a southerly exposure. This has a powerful and generous bouquet compared to the Vignes Blanches. It's delineated and poised. The palate is well-balanced and intense. This is one of Burrier's most complex wines with a touch of chamomile and pear on the finish. The 2022 is an absolutely delicious Pouilly-Fuissé.(NM)" (08/2024)

If you're looking for a white burgundy to pair with poultry or fish, look no further than Chateau de Beauregard's Pouilly Fuisse "Les Menetrieres". Rich and complex, this wine has notes of orchard fruits (predominately apple and pear), lemon curd, and a hint of spice. The clay and limestone this wine is grown in give it a nice minerality that, balanced with a touch of oak, give this Burgundy impressive depth.

Kerry Kennell | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 22, 2026

The 2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Les Menetrieres" is round and mouth-fillinggenerous yet balanced. Apple and lemon curd melds beautifully with ginger, delicate oak spice, and alluring sparks of flint. Lovely, lengthy finish of baked apple and toasted briochepure satisfaction. Mmmm!

Scott Beckerley | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

The great thing about the Beauregard Pouilly Fuisse lineup is that they are all so different! The Les Menetrieres has its own unique nose of white orchard fruits, lemon cream and light flint. On the palate, very, very complex with apple and pear fruit. The apple dominates a little more. There is background tart and clean wood with some citrus and stone fruit. As I said, very complex and it tastes far more expensive than it is!

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

Arguably the greatest vineyard site in all of Pouilly Fuisse the vineyard "Menetrieres" produces wines of stunning complexity and depth. The 2022 is a flat-out rockstar wine that oozes aromas of lemon chiffon, flint and wet stone while the palate is awash in pure citrus and orchard fruit flavors as well as notes of flint and stony minerality. The complexity and wealth of fruit and raw material here is impressive and this is a regal Pouilly Fuisse that definitely deserves its 1er Cru elevation.

2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Vers Cras" ($42.99)

95 points Jasper Morris: "Another gleaming green and gold. The nose is growing on me, all about the fruit and not the oak. Crunchy oyster shells! Very vertical, to employ a current buzzword. Absolutely superb! Stands alone in style, because of its terroir. I think it is the clarity of the finish and the lack of sucrosity which really impresses. Drink from 2026-2035." (04/2024)

90-93 points Burghound: "Pungent aromas of reduction and wood toast introduce beautifully textured and stony medium-bodied flavors that can't match the concentration or the power of the prior two wines but they do exhibit more finesse on the clean and dry finale that could also use better depth. Lovely and more understated in style." (08/2023)

Vinous: "The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé Vers Cras 1er Cru, which Burrier described as the most regular cuvée in terms of yield, is more citrus-fresh on the nose, with scents of orange zest and nectarine. Light floral aromas emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine linearity and crispness. It tapers in slightly towards the finish, so afford this time. (NM)" (06/2024)

Matthew Landau Hassan | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

Bright, precise, and terroir-forward, Les Crays shows the cooler, more mineral side of Pouilly-Fuissé. Aromas of citrus peel, white peach, crushed stone, and fresh herbs lead into a tightly focused palate with racy acidity and chalky texture. The wine finishes clean and linear with excellent tension and lift. This bottling is ideal for lovers of Chablis-like structure and high-definition minerality.

Scott Beckerley | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

Absolutely delicious! It starts out with tart citrus fruit and seaside scents. The palate mirrors this but, it then fleshes out pretty quickly to bring forth delicate lemon cream, understated pear and crisp orange flavors. Of the entire line of these wines, I find this one to be the most delicate and clean. It is also very complex. it just screams to be served with shellfish!

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 06, 2026

The flagship wine of the estate, the 2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "Vers Cras" is an absolute stunner. Layers of beautiful orchard fruits seamlessly mingle with hints of wet stone while the palate is a lively blend of pure fruit, earth, and bright acidity. Full-bodied and complex, this is a wonderful 1er cru white Burgundy for under $45 and is a great insight into the terrific wines being made at Château de Beauregard by the Joseph Burrier family.

2022 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé 1er Cru "La Maréchaude" ($42.99)

92 points Jasper Morris: "Glowing yellow. It may be Vergisson but the sun is shining in this south facing vineyard with the cliff behind. Sauvignon touch from the buis (in the past). Now on the palate more of a honeysuckle note, but then the chiselled freshness returns." (04/2024)

91 points Vinous: "The 2022 Pouilly-Fuissé La Maréchaude 1er Cru has one of the most precise aromatics, the most mineral-driven with lemon verbena, wet limestone and touches of white flower. The palate is taut, vibrant, linear and chalky, with hints of white peach, almond, and kiwi fruit emerging with time. Burrier said there are similarities with a ripe Sauvignon Blanc, and I can see that. Very fine.(NM)" (08/2024)

88-91 points Burghound: "There is a curious hint of sauvignon blanc-like character on the moderately oaked aromas of mostly white orchard fruit. The sleek, delicious and seductively textured flavors exude evident minerality on the lingering if borderline sweet finale. This is presently somewhat awkward and almost odd though my projected range offers the benefit of the doubt that it will clean up once it's rack and prepared for bottling." (08/2023)

Scott Beckerley | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 21, 2026

This is probably the prettiest nose of the whole line of these wines. Oranges, white pear fruit, floral citrus. Just a pleasure to take it all in! On the palate, it is rather tart with some evident clean wood flavors. These are joined by stone fruits and a nice touch of green apple skin. The mouthfeel starts very smoothly and finishes quite cleanly.

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: January 10, 2025

"La Marechaude" means hot tide because it sits just below 1er Cru Les Crays vineyard at the entrance into the valley which shields it from the wind creating a warm vineyard site. The 2022 Chateau de Beauregard Pouilly Fuisse 1er Cru "La Marechaude" has a salty, citrus-laced nose suggestive of white flowers in full bloom while the palate is a complex mixture of beautiful orchard fruits tilting towards peach and nectarine with a silky smooth mouthfeel. Harmonious and sumptuous this offering oozes beautiful fruit that goes until the long finish fades from the back of your tongue.

2015 Château de Beauregard Pouilly-Fuissé "Grand Beauregard" ($69.99)

95 points John Gilman: "A selection made each year of the 12 best barrels aged for two years in wood, one year in tank, then released after seven years in bottle. Yellow to pale gold. Really a gorgeous nose, ripe and mature, a waxy note, also a touch saline. Such a complete wine. The oak works well with this degree of majesty, and the finish treads lightly despite the obvious opulence. The 2015 defies time like a 1947 or 1959, suggests Frédéric. What a great way to finish the tasting. Drink from 2025-2035. Tasted Jun 2025." (02/2026)

93 points Vinous: "The 2015 Pouilly-Fuissé Grand Beauregard Hommage à Joseph Burrier is a special cuvée, a selection of the best dozen or so casks, aged two years in cask, one year in stainless steel and seven years in bottle. It has a lucid green-gold hue and a very Côte d'Or-like bouquet that you might liken to a Chassagne-Montrachetvery well defined with scents of lime, yellow flowers and later a touch of clear honey. The palate is lightly spiced on the entry with a dab of stem ginger, tangy with marmalade and sour lemon. Slightly petrolly towards the finish like a mature Riesling with noble reduction, this is a fascinating late-release that will give pleasure over many years.(NM)" (08/2025)

93 points Burghound: "(this is only released after 10 years of bottle aging). A fully mature, exotic and somewhat honeyed nose displays full-on secondary aromas of spice and ripe white-fleshed fruit but no sous-bois. The delicious, rich and full-bodied flavors are a combination of succulence and power while displaying excellent length on the clean, dry and complex finale. This is exceptionally good and especially so for the vintage." (10/2025)

John Majeski | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: December 17, 2025

An essential player in any fine wine is Time, and given the elaboration of years that this bottle experienced it is hardly surprising to find it drinking beautifully today. A worthy tribute to Joseph Burrier, who deeply understood the limestone and alkaline clay soils of Pouilly Fuisse and the generous quality of the fruit from that region of the Maconnais, delivering an unforgettable wine carefully nurtured in cask, tank and bottle for ten years! Aromatic layers of yellow apple, lemon curd and nutmeats flow into a palate evocative of brioche, creme brulee and honey. Pair with a platter of raw oysters or parmesan crusted seabass for a truly memorable feast.

Rachael Ryan | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: December 16, 2025

Its not every day that you get to taste perfectly matured white Burgundy under $100, and this wine really impresses with its intense concentration and long finish. Bright lemon yellow in the glass, there are some subtle oxidative aromas that you might expect for a ten-year-old wine marzipan, toasted cashews, crème fraiche but theyre balanced by lingering lemon oil and golden apple notes. The acidity on this wine is worth mentioning, too. The warmth of the vintage is apparent in the densely packed fruit notes and sheer extract, but the mouthfeel remains fresh and snappy. A fantastic wine deserving of a great meal!

Alex Pross | K&L Staff Member | Review Date: December 16, 2025

I loved this wine when I first tasted it on my annual Burgundy trip in April 2025, and having just cracked open a bottle that arrived in the shop a few days ago, I am even more impressed today than I was eight months earlier.Aged for ten years on sitetwo years in cask, one year in stainless steel tank, and the remaining seven years in bottlethis is a unique and deeply intriguing wine. Crafted from the best parcels of Premier Cru vineyards and then further selected from the finest casks after fermentation, Grand Beauregard is truly exceptional and clearly intended as the tête de cuvée of Pouilly-Fuissé.Aromas of spicy orchard fruit, racy citrus, and toasted almond lead seamlessly into a palate driven by vibrant acidity, framing early oxidative notes, lemon oil, ripe orchard fruit, and crushed rock minerality. The wine is remarkably complex, with an insanely long finish, offering a superb demonstration of just how beautifully top-tier Pouilly-Fuissé can age.This is a wine meant for the table and would shine alongside classic roast chicken or rich fish and seafood dishes.

2023 Domaine Comte de Vogüé Musigny Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes Price: Hidden

97-99 points Vinous: "I tasted the 2023 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru both as components from the seven different cuvées that make the final blend and as an approximation of the final blend itself. This has exquisite delineation on the nose: blackberry, raspberry, crushed stone and touches of undergrowthvery harmonious. The palate is medium-bodied, tightly wound and linear, with a sense of symmetry on the entry. But of all the Musigny tasted from barrel in 2023, this has perhaps the most nascent freshness, tension and complexity on the finish. A sense of completeness. Outstanding.(NM)" (01/2025)

95-98 points Jasper Morris: "I asked for the blend rather than tackling the individual components. A fine bright rich purple. An exquisite bouquet, still a baby but you can feel that there is a multitude of detail to follow. The fruit flows exquisitely across the palate. There is some barely ripe redcurrant fruit, a wealth of fresh raspberry and strawberry, then some darker fruit, a perfect poise and balance with tannin and acidity, and exquisite length. This is growing on me in steady stages. Resonance is the word, thinks Jean Lupatelli. Drink from 2033-2048. Tasted Nov 2024." (01/2025)

95-97 points Burghound: "Note: from an incredible 6.46 ha parcel, which doesn't include the .67 ha section planted to chardonnay. A more restrained if just as pretty and equally perfumed nose displays a similar array of red and dark cherry, exotic jasmine tea and dried orange peel along with a hint of sandalwood. On the palate the broad-shouldered and even more concentrated flavors manage the trick of being more powerful but also more refined with an almost aggressive minerality that seems to build in intensity on the compact, youthfully austere and massively long finale. This is however exceptionally firm and is very much a 'buy and forget you own it' wine. In a word, superb.*Burghound Don't Miss!*" (01/2025)

97 points Tim Atkin: "Cuvée Vieilles VignesDeeply colored, the flavors and structure are just as imposing. The richness of the year is clearly imprinted on the wine, as is the winemaking know-how. Black cherry and blueberry compote, incense, woodsy spice and musk drive this impressive aromatic dimension. The tannins are firm, brooding and somewhat strapping, and they are nicely matched by vivacious, bustling acidity. Crafted with the utmost precision, Jean always separates out seven parcels and usually has one or two of mixed vines. This simply needs time, as the wines of this cellar typically do." (01/2025)

95-96 points Wine Advocate: "The 2023 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru, which we tasted from a variety of sub-parcels, is very promising, mingling aromas of dark berries and cherries with notions of orange zest, rose petals, incense and iris. Medium to full-bodied, cool and layered, with a rich core of fruit framed by ultra-refined tannins, it's suave and harmonious, with a long, fragrant finish. This accomplished Musigny only confirms that de Vogüé is performing on a high level today.The renaissance at Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé continues, underlined by a beautifully sensual and perfumed 2023 portfolio. As I wrote last year, Jean Lupatelli took the reins at Comte de Vogüé with the 2021 vintage. Under the previous direction, which began with the 1986 vintage, the de Vogüé wines could often be chunky and unyielding. Lupatelli has changed all that, revising every aspect of the winemaking process. The management of harvest itself seems to be a critical step, and in 2021, he abandoned the use of large gondolas to transport the grapes from the vineyard to the winery, replacing them with small cases. There's not a new sorting table, but the domaine's must pump has been banished in favor of filling tanks by gravity. All this means that the fruit is being handled much more gently. Cooperage choices are being refined, and a new racking tank has been acquired to permit proper blending before bottling so that there is one, consistent cuvée; and of course, the details of the bottling process itself are (WK)" (01/2025)

96 points John Gilman: "The inherent sappiness of the best red wines of 2023 is still very much on display in the Musigny Vieilles Vignes here, as the wine remains still in barrel. The bouquet is pure, complex and utterly refined, wafting from the glass in a mix of red and black plums, black cherries, gamebird, coffee bean, chalky minerality, iron, woodsmoke, cedary oak and a lovely, complex floral topnote redolent of both roses and peonies. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and suavely structured, with a beautiful sappy core of fruit, great soil signature and grip, ripe, buried tannins, good acids and a very, very long, pure and complex finish. A superb bottle of Musigny in the making. 2040-2100." (02/2025)

Jancis Robinson: "De Vogüé have a substantial 70% of this 10.85-ha (26.8-acre) grand cru. Average vine age is 65 years, with a range from 25 to 90 years old.Mid ruby. Very floral with medium body and an intensely graceful character. A nose of cherries, strawberries and raspberry is complexed by wafts of woodsmoke. There is a cool intensity to the rich fruit. Everything is understated and fine. Medium body, balanced crisp acidity and barely apparent, gossamer tannins. The epitome of Chambolle-Musigny. There is, however, substantial length and depth. 18+/20 points (MH)" (11/2024)

2022 Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Volnay 1er Cru "Frémiets" ($219.99)

95 points Decanter: "Although the vines for this Fremiets are very close to those for the Clos des Angles bottling, the style is very different it is much more mineral, almost salty, with bright black fruit, notes of violets and spice, and a texture with abundant tannic grip and an almost chewy feel. The domaine farms nearly 1.6 hectares on the steeper slopes with shallow soils. Although it is not as reserved as the Clos des Ducs, this would benefit from five years of age before opening. (CC)" (01/2024)

91-94 points Jasper Morris: "Mid crimson purple. The vineyard is just above Clos des Angles, and bears some similarity on the nose. However, the fruit is a little deeper, and darker on the palate, good acidity here, just a little more structure all round. Drink from 2030-2037." (01/2024)

94 points Tim Atkin: "These vines are on the steepest slope the domaine owns, so it's not surprising that there is little, brown clay topsoil here. Such vines typically stress in heat and drought, but this wine seems to be more approachable than usual at this stage. Black plums are joined by woodsy spice on the silky and long palate with a vaguely saline finish. The wine does feel a bit square and compact, but there is a very generous fruitiness, too." (02/2024)

92-94 points Vinous: "The 2022 Volnay Fremiet 1er Cru has more complexity and nuance on the nose compared to the Clos des Angles. Well-defined with discrete use of oak (10 to 15% new), gaining intensity in the glass but never fully letting go. The palate is medium-bodied with edgy, slightly chalky tannins on the entry, lending this Volnay tension. This has a fine bead of acidity and a dash of cracked black pepper mixed with sous-bois towards the finish. Give this a few years in bottle - very fine.(NM)" (01/2024)

92-94 points Burghound: "Note: from a 1.57 ha parcel. Aromas of kirsch, black raspberry, anise and plenty of spice nuances are trimmed in just enough oak to notice. The suave, palate coating and solidly concentrated flavors possess a richer and more generous mouthfeel where equally fine-grained tannins shape the less mineral-driven but slightly longer finish. In the context of what is typical, this is a relatively powerful Frémiets that is very much built to repay extended keeping.*Burghound Sweet Spot Outstanding!*" (04/2024)

91-93 points Wine Advocate: "Offering up aromas of raspberries, plums, sweet spices and petals, the 2022 Volnay 1er Cru Fremiet is medium to full-bodied, pure and lively, with refined, powdery tannins and a fine-boned, elegant profile.Guillaume d'Angerville and technical director François Duvivier once again opted to pick early in 2022, beginning harvest on August 23 to produce a crop of pure, fine-boned, perfumed reds that will delight Burgundy purists. As I've written before, followers of d'Angerville will be familiar with the protocol here: biodynamic farming, destemmed grapes, classical macerations and élevage in barrelsof which some 20% are new, with older barrels generally being retained for five vintages. These have always been seriously long-lived wines, but contemporary d'Angerville isn't quite as backward and slow to evolve as the wines were in the days of Guillaume d'Angerville's father. The use of barrels with a somewhat younger average ageeven if percentages of new wood remain very modestgives them a slightly glossier patina, especially in their youth. (WK)" (01/2024)

2023 Domaine Michel Gros Richebourg Grand Cru - 11 available ($999.99)

94-96 points Jasper Morris: "An even bright ruby purple. In its youth, the 100% new oak shows a little, though well married with the fruit. There is darker fruit in the mouth, unexpectedly and perhaps a higher octane feel at 14.5%, with plums as well as berries in the fruit profile. There is definitely potential for further positive development here. Drink from 2033-2040. Tasted Mar 2025." (01/2025)

91-94 points Vinous: "The 2023 Richebourg Grand Cru takes time to unfold on the nose and never quite reaches the heights of the previous vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with another toasty entry from the 100% new oak. This has fine weight and quite a lot of wood tannins, but it's difficult to discern the vineyard. This is a difficult Richebourg to read at the moment.(NM)" (01/2025)

91-93 points Burghound: "Note: from a .41 ha holding in the climat of Les Verroilles. This possesses the spiciest nose in the range with a wonderfully broad-ranging array of red and dark cherry, exotic Asian-style tea and a similar whiff of oak toast. The rich, powerful and quite serious larger-bodied flavors exude evident minerality on the powerful, muscular and lingering finale where touches of acid tang and warmth appear. I suspect that the acid tang will eventually dissipate as the high level of gas is regulated when the wine is racked for the bottling." (01/2025)

2022 Domaine Ponsot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes - 11 available Price: Hidden

96-99 points Jasper Morris: "32 barrels made, which is equal to half the red wine cellar! A bright even purple. A slightly nutty note to the otherwise reticent bouquet. Then follows a vast volume of fruit right across the piece, a density which is in a different league to the Chapelle. Absolutely swamps the palate and with the characteristic precision of the vintage. Excellent fresh feel to the finish. I think this is a wine which could explode in volume from here, with so much of the fruit expression currently being held back by the tension. Drink from 2035. Tasted Nov 2023." (01/2024)

95-97 points Vinous: "The 2022 Clos de la Roche Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has the finest bouquet from Domaine Ponsot this year: ebullient black cherries and violets on the beautifully-defined nose. Very flamboyant with losing sight of its terroir. The medium-bodied palate is very tensile and energetic with finely-knit tannins and a deftly crafted, sorbet-fresh finish. This is a superb Clos de la Roche that should age with style.(NM)" (01/2024)

94-96 points Wine Advocate: "The 2022 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Cuvée Vieilles Vignes is a powerful wine, though comparatively speaking only a middleweight in the context of years such as 2018, 2019 and 2020, and it's more suave and integrated out of the gates than those vintages. Offering up deep aromas of ripe berry fruit mingled with baking spices, rose petals, orange zest and vine smoke, it's full-bodied, layered and velvety, with a fleshy core of fruit, supple tannins and a nicely cohesive finish.Domaine Ponsot began picking red grapes on September 6, a comparatively early start for this historically late-harvesting domaine, producing a crop of powerful but charming wines that are less overtly broad shouldered than their 2018, 2019 and 2020 counterparts. As ever, complete destemming, minimal sulfites, and élevage in used barrels are the order of the day. The range also includes a Corton Grand Cru Cuvée du Bourdon that had just concluded a late malolactic when I visited and was consequently not entirely put together, and a Cuvée Hypolite, from the domaine's oldest vines planted in 1950s in their original historic parcel of Clos de la Roche, which is more brooding and deeper pitched than the regular cuvée.(NM)" (01/2024)

96 points Tim Atkin: "The majority of these vines were replanted in 1954 with another bit planted 28 years ago. This is dramatically scented with Lapsang Souchong tea, dried mulberries and spice cake. Resounding acidity plows through the dense palate as the broad but creamy tannins take to the sidelines. This often strikes me as rather regal, but it feels more approachable than usual this year." (01/2024)

96 points Burghound: "Note: the aggregate size of this holding is a whopping 3.4 ha and Ponsot is by far the largest holder in Clos de la Roche. A restrained, spicy and broad-ranging liqueur-like nose features a plenitude of spice elements on the ripe, fresh and layered nose of both red and dark currant, earth and a whiff of the sauvage. Once again there is a caressing yet powerful mouthfeel to the beautifully concentrated and strikingly textured big-bodied flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract on the hugely long, firm and very much built-to-age finish. This is extremely impressive and in particular I like the fruit-acid-tannin balance." (01/2025)

96 points Decanter: "Although Ponsot's Clos de la Roche is a bit closed at this stage, it is a monumental wine with abundant plum and black cherry fruit aromas, pepper, earth, and olive. The texture is rich and dense, with firm but not forbidding tannins and a silky and elegant finish. This wine will still stay in the cask for another winter, at least. Wait at least five years before opening, ten if possible; this age-worthy beauty should last 40 or 50 years.(CC)" (01/2024)

K&L Notes: Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "1/3 from the lower part of Monts Luisants – and the rest from the original climate of Clos de la Roche – totalling 3.3 ha – from 16.8 (originally 4.5) A shy nose but a very silky one – with the impression of super depth. Hmm, much as I loved the Chapelle – here is more open fluidity despite the impressive scale of the wine. A little chalky finishing today. Showing a little less fruit than the Chapelle today but what a beautifully shaped wine – and I’m even more impressed – but I’d be drinking Chapelle today!"(01/2024)

2023 Domaine Geantet-Pansiot Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru Price: Hidden

95 points James Suckling: "Quite woody at the moment, but there is excellent depth hidden beneath. Expect dark fruit, from ripe black cherries to almost blackberries. Hazelnut waffle and spices as well. Full-bodied for pinot with fine, powdery tannins that melt with the fruit. Long and spicy in the end. Do give it two or three years in bottle to let the pinot elegance shine through. (ZS)" (05/2025)

Jancis Robinson: "Leafy, autumnal nose. Fragrant, fine, soaring. Dark cherries and sweetness. Already feels complete and you might not have to wait too long for this. (TC) (Drink between 2028-2040) 17/20 points" (01/2025)

2023 Domaine Bachelet-Monnot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Folatières" - 6 available ($249.99)

93-96 points Jasper Morris: "Pale lemon yellow, with a lightly reductive nose. More of a chiselled than a heady Folatières, though with all the necessary weight of fruit further back on the palate. This is less extrovert than Les Referts but perhaps shows a classier intensity at the finish. Drink from 2027-2035. Tasted Nov 2024." (01/2025)

93-95 points Vinous: "The 2023 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru has more vigor on the nose compared to the Les Referts, more mineral-driven with yellow flowers and a touch of lemon verbena. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, a lovely caressing texture and hints of chamomile infusing the orchard fruit toward the finish. The acidity keeps this tight and focuseda beautifully sculpted Puligny.(NM)" (01/2025)

90-93 points Burghound: "Note: from a parcel in Ez Folatières near Truffières. A suggestion of the exotic is present on the slightly riper aromas of white peach, spiced tea and passion fruit. The rich, succulent and opulent medium weight flavors possess slightly better mid-palate density though not quite the same precision on the lingering finale that could also use better depth.*Burghound Outstanding!*" (06/2025)

2023 Domaine Parent Corton Blanc Grand Cru ($249.99)

92-95 points Jasper Morris: "From Rognet et Corton, not racked. Pale in colour, rather elegant, despite 100% new wood in 350 litre barrels from Taransaud and Millard. Fresh plums, gracious and long, now the oak comes into play a little bit more, with stone fruit behind, and a bit of orange blossom. Not the stony side of Corton Charlemagne but impressive harmony as well as weight." (11/2024)

90-92 points Vinous: "The 2023 Corton Grand Cru Blanc had not been racked and was matured in 100% new oak. It has a fresh nose that handles the wood well, displaying finely delineated touches of yellow fruit and candied orange peel The palate is well balanced with a creamy-textured entry, although here, the oak is more present and lends butteriness that defines the finish.

2022 Domaine Ramonet Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru "Morgeot" - 12 available ($299.99)

Allen Meadows of Burghound writes: "Pierre Ramonet arrived in Burgundy in the late 1920s and began to earn money by buying and vinifying grapes. Land values were low at the time, and he began to accumulate vineyard plots with his first purchase within the Ruchottes vineyard in 1934. The crown jewel of his acquisitions would occur in 1978 when he purchased a plot of Montrachet. He passed the reins shortly thereafter to his son André, who died in 2011, and subsequently to his grandchildren, who are the current owners, Noël and Jean-Claude who have tended the vineyards since 1984. They produce 24 appellation wines from 16.2 ha, located primarily in Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet."
