*All prices in bond* 89-9 Points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. The Dubreuil-Fontaine Pommard vines were slightly less damaged by the frost, especially the sector En Boeuf. A full crimson red colour. There is a weight and generosity of fruit on the nose which the lesser appellations slightly missed.
*All prices in bond* 87-88 Points Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Mid red, a little brighter. Some zest to the fresh red fruit. Still a little bit firm at the finish, but the fruit carries on
through. Some similarity to 2017 suggests Christine. The fruit returns prettily to finish. Drink from 2024-2027.
*All prices in bond* 86-87 Points Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Mid red. A pretty floral red fruit, elegant and with charm, in the style of typical Pernand. Attractively perfumed on the palate too, light tannins, an agreeable lighter red for summer drinking.
*All prices in bond* 89-91 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. A lighter purple colour with quite a refined floral pinot nose. This upper hillside vineyard stays fresh yet has added weight with global warming. The fresh limestone feel is well supported by red fruit, with attractive persistence.
*All prices in bond* 90-92 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. A good bright lighter purple crimson. There is a little more depth of fruit on the nose. More precision, fine structure, a return of high-class fruit at the finish. Not dramatic but fine boned and well made. Long fine finish.
*All prices in bond* 88-90 Points Jasper Morris inside Burgundy. Mid red crimson, the nose is altogether more rustic, being served after the Ile de Vergelesses. Rugby man shoulders to this but the tannins are not ugly and the wine finishes well.
*All prices in bond* 90-92 Points Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. A brisk crimson colour. The nose shows some juiciness of red fruits. Well balanced, not too tannic, though the
*All prices in bond* 89-92 Points Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. A mid crimson purple colour. The Epenots ripened well in 2021 and that shows in the nature of the fruit, discreet on the nose, but filling the mouth relatively well. Just slightly bitter tannins behind. Additional elevage may pay dividends here.
*All prices in bond* 91-93 Points Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. Mid crimson purple with a lovely raspberry seedless aspect. A little bit tighter on the palate, slightly more
concentration and though still entirely red fruit this has a darker profile. The tannins and acidity are in balance at the finish.
*All prices in bond* 90-93 Points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. Bright palish purple, with a vibrant juicy fresh red raspberry fruit. Some tannins behind but they are refined and
not bitter and the fruit is genial. Plenty to enjoy here in the appealing style of Bressandes. A long finish.

Ripe, fleshy, right-bank Bordeaux made from a one hectare plot of 40 year old vine Merlot situated in the commune of Montagne-Saint-Emilion. Aromas of sweet red berries, blackcurrant, liquorice and cedary-spices.
The 2018 Helichrysum received an abundance of praise, yielding from vineyards around the San Polino winery, in the southeast of Montalcino.
“Sour cherries, licorice, lemon verbena and balsamic on the nose. There’s lavender and sandalwood, too. So much pure sangiovese character with tangy acidity and juicy sour and savory hints carrying this wine long. Firm, grippy tannins that are at the forefront for now. Give it a few years.
San Polino’s classic and characteristically delicate Brunello di Montalcino is from 5 hectares in the northeast of the appellation, on deep clay soils.

This multi-vintage wine has a dark ruby red colour. The nose is elegant with a charming bouquet of juicy berries, dark cherries and plums. The toasty aromas following extended maturation in oak are well integrated. On the palate, the wine has a well-balanced tannic structure and a silky texture.
96 points Susan Hulme MW TWI “The 2017 Biondi Santi Brunello has a lightly fragrant oak nose with notes of cream and vanilla and cherry. The weight is beautifully ethereal with a little of that weightless quality that you find in very fine wines.
The fruit for the Riserva 2016 is sourced exclusively from Tenuta Greppo’s oldest vines. The Riserva 2016 was vinified entirely in a mixture of Slavonian oak barrels. The wine is aged for three years in Slavonian oak barrels and aged in bottle before release.
