Burgundy 2024 En Primeur

Apples and pears, citrus, white flowers, and a hint of peach on the nose. There is good weight, a pleasing richness, and a lovely mineral quality that gives excellent length. A charmer that never disappoints and drinks well on release.

Full of gorgeously ripe and fleshy white orchard fruits, citrus and peach that leans into the generosity of the vintage but with super energy and freshness too. Ample, rounded, lifted and long.

Also one of the higher vineyards, Bussières has magnificent views down the bucolic Crosne valley. It is always an elegant cuvée with a mineral edge, but maturation in large oval, wooden foudres gives a beautiful soft roundness.

Wonderfully concentrated and intense, offering peach and yellow fruits, and a steeliness typical of the vineyard. A compelling alternative to the grander names of the C?te de Beaune.

Such a stylish and poised wine - a ripe mix of citrus, white fruits, and peach fuzz but with a tantalising coolness, lively acidity and a lacy minerality. Great definition and drive.

The ripeness of the vintage shines here, offering rich and aromatic stone fruits, and juicy citrus that goes beyond lime and lemon. Weighty but structured and nicely balanced, with superb length of flavour. Delicious!

Produced from 50-year-old vines on the top of the Le Clos plateau, the Petit is a super value entry level estate wine. Fermented and aged in stainless steel, this is all about freshness and purity. Bright with notes of citrus, fresh apple and a hint of salinity on the finish, it pairs up very nicely with seafood or simply delicious on its own! 0-3 years. "This is from a plot just above Les Clos, and it punches well above its weight. Lively, bright, stony and mineral with good texture and weight. This shows depth and vitality. Very fine." 94/100 (Jamie Goode)

Probably one of the best village Chablis's out there, the grapes are sourced from the Pargues, Montmains and Montée de Tonnerre vineyards. 100% fermented and aged in stainless steel, the village oozes purity and delivers aromas of nectarine, crisp apple and oyster shell. A little lees ageing adds a pleasing texture. Classically mineral driven in character, with fresh acidity it has a lovely tension and finishes bone-dry. Your go to Chablis! 0- 5 years. "Stony, precise and mineral with nice intensity of limey fruit. Really vivid with nice acidity. Chiselled." 94/100 (Jamie Goode)

Fermented in 100 % stainless steel, there's evident notes of lime, tropical fruit and wet stone. This is one for the purists. With its classic steely structure, it delivers signature Chablis minerality, saline notes and that flintiness that is hard not to like. It softens with a little more time in the glass but it's always going to be on the more austere side. 5-15 years. "There is a linear quality to this, but also a bit of depth. Hints of cream. Bright, linear acidity with lime and crystalline lemon. Nice tension." 95/100 (Jamie Goode)

With 20% fermented in barrel and the remaining 80% in stainless steel, the Tonnerre gives up alluring notes of stone fruit, a little white peach and a hint of aniseed. On the palate it possesses delicious creamy mouthfeel, with prominent leesy weight and texture but bright, zingy acidity. A superbly balanced wine, whilst delicious now, will need further cellar time to really show its class. 5-15 years. "This has some exotic peach and pear character as well as crystalline citrus fruit, with a nice liquid mineral character. Fine, fresh and detailed with nice purity and harmony. It’s ripe but it stays really balanced." 94/100 (Jamie Goode).

The Bougros vineyard is the most western of the seven Grand Cru climats. Samuel chooses to vinify the grapes in a 50/50 blend of barrel aged and stainless steel, the resulting wine is superbly balanced wine with signature acidity, evident minerality and saline notes. Sitting atop this structure lies a wealth of apple, lime, ginger, citrus and even starbursts! A treat, this will age gracefully for years to come. 5-15 years. "50% raised in 500 litre barrels. This has incredible concentration and weight with bold citrus and pineapple and pear fruit with amazing vitality and intensity. There’s a spicy, mineral character. Really powerful with a slight hint of cabbage and gunsmoke adding complexity. This is a striking wine showing real weight." 97/100 (Jamie Goode).
