Clos des Lambrays Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Fresh and meaty. Intense savory bright fruit. Floral notes and sappy gnarly fruit. Some inky tangy notes. From mag- still very vigorous. Very good.

Dec 21st, 2018Healthy dark red. Very sexy scents of plum, spices and cedar. Rich and silky but not a bit exotic--or even advanced, for that matter--with its seamless flavors of raspberry, spices and soil energized by salty minerality. Boasts terrific inner-mouth energy and tension, no doubt partly due to the stem element. Finishes saline and very long, with edge-free tannins and uncanny lift. At once seductively sweet and youthful, this wine should continue to evolve gracefully for another two decades. (Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, March 2018)

Apr 30th, 2015Always been partial to Morey St. Denis and the velvety finesse of these ethereal Pinots--surprisingly still quite firm from a 375ml, but '99s seem almost timeless and will continue to age for decades!
