Wimbledon Wine Cellar: The Best Selection of Fine Wine in London
Claire has continued to achieve international acclaim and demand globally for her wines is through the roof. One taste and it's so easy to see why. The wines easily stir emotions as do many of her peers in the Cotes de Nuits. Her minuscule quantities of Echezeaux, Ladoix 1er Cru and Aloxe Corton are reserved by many a year in advance. Claire is a grower that people just don't want to lose their allocation of. The wines age beautifully and are just so perfumed and finely balanced. There is something for everybody here. The Hautes Cotes range of red and white are incredible value and just so chiselled. The fruit is so healthy. It just wafts from the glass fulfilling all your senses...and for the price...just incredible. The Clematis is a revelation. Beautiful, sensuous wine that is easily worth double it's price. It easily puts many Meursault and Puligny wines at double the price to shame. With great ageing potential too. The reds are in a class of their own too. I adore them all, with the Echezeaux leading the way for many investors. It's rare to find an Echezeaux with so much poise and flair, unless you drink her partners'... Jean Yves Bizot.
We highly recommend Claire's 2022's. They are luscious, super gentle and the epitome of modern Burgundy. Just so pure.
Nestled in the beautiful countryside of the Hautes Cotes, this small and beautiful domaine is a gem. Lovingly looked after by Claire Naudin, it is the embodiment of "small is beautiful" and a visit to this producer is like a wonderful trip to yester-year. The family's warmth greats you as you enter the domaine. In a world where Burgundy is becoming increasingly sought after and expensive, Claire continues to produce small quantities of tip top red and whites.
We have been working with Claire Naudin for the past 12 vintages. Her wines need very little introduction. She is one of the world’s leading producers of wines with no sulphites. The wines have a wonderful elegance, are understated and silky with a luxurious elegance. Her perfect-score Echezeaux is an embodiment of fine fruit and finesse that is seldom seen in this appellation. Power is not evident in this super bottling. It is replaced by finesse and a ballerina-like aroma of charm and cherries. A “zen” wine. Whilst the Echezeaux has become a collectable commodity throughout the world of wine, the Aloxe Corton and the Ladoix are a must for Burgundy enthusiasts who seek top of the tree Pinot flavours at realistic prices. The Clematis is an absolute bargain for anybody that is a true fan of natural wines and exquisite white Burgundy reminiscent of a fine Meursault. Layers of super-fine Chardonnay waft from the glass and hint at what the wine will evolve to in 5 years time. The Ladoix is making a great name for itself and this is a wine to collect and keep in your cellar. It ages beautifully. We are delighted to say this has always been a firm favourite, and in the world of crazy pricing this is a true bargain. Just look at what Jasper Morris says:
This is a dream winery which deserves much more acclaim. Claire is from a long lie of magnificent growers who have run this family estate. Perched high in the hills of Hautes-Cotes, her entry level wines are a bargain. She is the partner of probably Burgundy’s most cult wine-maker Jean-Yves Bizot. This is a fabulous couple to have dinner with and the wines are just to die for. Claire’s wines are in a class of their own too, I simply adore them… and many other wine enthusiasts around the world adore them too. In the heady world of Burgundy prices they are a bargain. It is a domaine that we adore and whose wines should definitely be in your cellar.
As always, there is very limited allocation on these wines. Please contact us for limited Echezeaux and Magnum allocations.
