Wimbledon Wine Cellar: The Best Selection of Fine Wine in London
90-92, Neal Martin, October 2023. The 2022 Pommard Les Epenots ler Cru is a blend of the separately fermented Petit and Grands Epenots, about 50/50, 40% whole bunches and raised in 50% new French oak. The wood is just covering some of the fruit at the moment, so it will require some time to assimilate fully.
90-92, Neal Martin, October 2023. The 2022 Ladoix La Corvee ler Cru, completely de-stemmed, has a perfumed, violet-tinged bouquet ith a spring in its step. The medium-bodied palate has supple, fine tannins. It is fresh and vibrant, with a keen thread of acidity and a precise finish.
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.
Wine Safari Score: 92-94+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A fabulous 2.12-hectare single Monopole site that yields 40 barrels in a good vintage like 2022.
Wine Safari Score: 93-94+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A serious expression from Clos de Vougeot using 100% new French oak, is packed full of graphite and smoky limestone minerality, picante bramble berry fruits and spicey black plum.
90-93, Allen Meadows, Burghound. Tasted: Jan 10, 2024. Tasting note: Ripe and pretty aromas include those of red and dark currant with background whiffs of earth and forest floor.
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.
*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.
96 points, Bob Campbell MW - Ranked: #1 of 30 2018 Pinot Noir from Martinborough
Anne harvests her gorgeous Pinot from vineyards that abut Pommard. Her style is classic yet modern. This is tip top plush Pinot Noir.
