(6x75cl) 2023Wine Advocate (94)
The 2023 Mercurey 1er Cru Les Champs Martin is lovely, revealing aromas of crisp Anjou pear, clear honey, wet stones and white flowers. Medium- to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's dense and concentrated, with a cool core of fruit and a long, saline finish.د.إ1,462.00 -
(6x75cl) 2023Wine Advocate (92+)
Notes of sweet stone fruits, waxy citrus and fresh melon preface the 2023 Mercurey 1er Cru Clos des Barraults Blanc, a medium- to full-bodied, satiny and layered wine that marries rich, almost unctuous fruit with mouthwateringly mordant dry extract to deliver a wine built more like a red than a white.د.إ1,462.00 -
Wine Advocate (95)
The 2023 Mercurey 1er Cru Pièce 15 is an especially extrovert rendition of this cuvée, a bottling produced from 15 small, old-vine parcels growing on calcium-rich soils that Lorenzon considers his finest plots. Bursting with aromas of ripe citrus fruits, flowers, clear honey, buttery pastry and wet stones, it's medium- to full-bodied, rich and ample, with a fleshy, layered core and a long, expansive finish. Of course, it may shut down with some additional time in bottle, but for now, the 2023 is wide open.د.إ2,920.00 -
(12x75cl) 2022Burghound (90-93)
Sweet spot Outstanding. Here the wood treatment is more subtle on the very pretty and more floral-suffused nose of citrus, anise and white orchard fruit scents. There is a finer texture to the punchier medium weight flavors that culminate in a bone-dry, balanced and even more persistent finale. The underlying tension is palpable and overall, this chiseled effort is very good and a wine that should amply repay mid-term keeping.د.إ1,364.00 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-92)
5 Star Wine. Racked to tank but this has fallen clear. This has the most elegant bouquet of the three wines. This is beautiful also on the palate, with a delicious fruit throughout. Jean-Yves thinks that the 2022 is his best yet and because he has enough yield which gives greater finesse than years where the vine has struggled. This is fine-boned with perfectly judged ripeness, and will doubtless add further tension over the next few months – though otherwise seems most attractive to drink now. Very complementary oaking. Drink from 2025-2030.د.إ1,595.00
