Wimbledon Wine Cellar: The Best Selection of Fine Wine in London
*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.
Bruno Desaunay's style is classic, rich and fuller in style as this is very much declassified Vosne Romanee.

Incredible value Burgundy from one of the most talented winemakers in Burgundy - the ever talented Claire Naudin. Gorgeous to drink now. The red is perfect with white meat, ham and chicken. A great opportunity to try!

Incredible value Burgundy from one of the most talented winemakers in Burgundy - the ever talented Claire Naudin. Gorgeous to drink now. The white is perfect with smoked salmon and seafood and the red perfect with white meat, ham and chicken. A great opportunity to try both the rouge and blanc!

Anne harvests her gorgeous Pinot from vineyards that abut Pommard. Her style is classic yet modern. This is tip top plush Pinot Noir.

2020 duty paid
85-87, Neal Martin, October 2023. The 2022 Bourgogne Cote d'Or comes from Pommard and Volnay and is de-stemmed, aged in used 600-liter barrels. It offers redcurrant, cranberry and briar scents, well defined. The palate has a pleasing fleshy entry with mulberry and touches of dried herbs.
91-93, Neal Martin, November 2023. The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaliots comes from a single plot below Les Poirets. It opens with crushed strawberry and cranberry fruit, dried violets and touches of incense. It just needs a little more delineation.
Wine Safari Score: 91-92+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. Made from a blend of three separate plots, this Nuits is deep, dark and broody, a very serious offering with layers of savoury black fruits and a smoky graphite minerality.
Bordeaux... prepared like a Grand Cru. JAMES SUCKLING 93/100: "A delicious, savory red with blackcurrant, chocolate and cedar aromas and flavors. It's medium-bodied with fine, round tannins. Fresh and bright. It opens at the end and becomes chewy and intense."
A wine — structured, complex and delicious — to enjoy today
*All prices in bond* 88-90 pts, 3 stars, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy Brisk lively purple with a much more classy pinot bouquet. Raspberry with cherry in the background and this kicks on as it should, with a generous layer of red fruit at the back of the palate. Slightly dry finish nonetheless. Drink from 2027-2030.
*All prices in bond* 87 - 89 pts 3 stars Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy Mid crimson red and paler at the rim. Not much bouquet. The fruit reappears on the palate, but a little astringent behind. Fairly typical village Aloxe. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted: October 2023.
*DUTY PAID* Score: 88-90 points, Jasper Morris for Inside Burgundy and 89 - 91 Points, Neal Martin for Vinous.
