Made in a great village in the Côte de Beaune, this wine is produced in a unique environment - in that they only produce red wines. From the very beginnings of vinegrowing in Burgundy, Pommard was reputed and already qualified as the “flower of Beaune” during the Middle Ages. The vineyards extend across ancient and well-drained alluvial soils, where the concentration of iron oxide reddens the earth. This wine is a deep red colour with a very expressive nose. It offers an aromatic palate of well-

Les Gollardes is a plot located on the northern slopes of Savigny-lès-Beaune, a territory shared with the neighbouring commune of Pernand-Vergelesses. Facing south, extending from the Premier Crus, this earlier climate produces coloruful and substantial wines, balanced by a beautiful suppleness of body. Aromas of redcurrant, blackcurrant, and blackberry intertwined with undertones of undergrowth, mushrooms, and spices. 6 * Domaine Decelle & Fils Savigny Les Beaune Les Gollardes 2022 Taste A

This Chardonnay presents a wonderful contrast between liveliness and roundness, comfort and freshness. Situated on the heights of Savigny-lès-Beaune, the plot called "Les Champlains" is characterized by a poor and very stony soil. One can indeed see numerous "meurgers," these high piles of flat stones extracted from the vineyards over the centuries and piled into walls bordering the plots. The particularly generous sunlight of the plot benefits the grapes, which ripen well, resulting in a dense

Meursault, along with Puligny Montrachet and Chassagne Montrachet, forms the renowned "golden triangle," the core of the Côte de Beaune, renowned for its premier Chardonnay terroirs in Burgundy.

Drinking well now, it can age for up to 10 years in the cellar. 6 * Domaine Decelle & Fils Meursault 2022 Taste Bright straw yellow in colour, Meursault Decelle & Fils comes with notes

91 Points - Gilbert et Gaillard. The Sylvain Mosnier Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy 2021 is classic Chablis. The Beauroy site – the ‘climat’ – has Premier Cru status, and with its fine mix of limestone-rich soils, it gives wines that are fresh, clean and mineral-soaked. Sylvain Mosnier produces traditionally styled wines – no new oak here – that drink well young but which have the capacity to age and develop in bottle. 6 * Sylvain Mosnier Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy 2021 Wine Press Ratings 91 Points - Gilb

The first vintage was 1995 and is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Sangiovese. The wines are aged in French barriques for twelve months and are blended just before the bottling. A long period in bottle follows before the finished Solengo is released. Solengo, by the way, means solitary wild boar in Tuscan, and describes perfectly the regal, powerful,

Inspired by the world-renowned wines of the famed ‘Right Bank’ of Bordeaux’s Garonne River, the vision of De Toren Z originated, followed by the maiden vintage release in 2004. The exact same quality, precision and winemaking philosophy that De Toren is so well known for, would be used to craft an equal for the Left-Bank, De Toren Fusion V.
