Burgundy | 9 | 92 (IB) | HK$2,520.00 | |||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92)Pale lemon colour. Just a little bit smoky yet pleasingly marine as well. Very crunchy saline finish, 2022 is more classic for Vaillons than 2023. White fruit with the lightest of saline lemon rinses. Drink from 2026-2032. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Burgundy | 1 | 89 (VN (ST)) | HK$635.00 | |||||
Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89)Bright, pale, green-tinged yellow. Ripe aromas of mirabelle and nectarine, with an element of exotic spices. Fat, ripe and sweet, with an almost glyceral texture to the nectarine and pink grapefruit flavors. A fat, spicy wine with lowish acidity. This hail-affected parcel was picked at the beginning of the harvest owing to the more fragile grape skins, noted Bernard Billaud. Will make a fat and agreeable chardonnay, although with limited vineyard typicity. |

Burgundy | 3 | 91 (BH) | HK$2,355.00 | |||||
Burghound (91)(from 4 different parcels of 35+ year old vines). Here the wood is subtle though easily perceptible on the mildly exotic aromas of white and yellow peach, orange peel and moderate Chablis elements. On the palate the larger-bodied and more concentrated flavors are also generously proportioned while concluding in a balanced, dry and powerful finish. This could use more depth so a few years of keeping should again prove beneficial. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94)5 Star Wine. An even lemon yellow. The concentrated warmth of Montée de Tonnerre is showing here in a very attractive way, a little more compelling than Mont de Milieu. Less flamboyant up front then the 2023 but if anything offering greater intensity behind with really well harnessed marine minerals. Beautiful persistence. Drink from 2027-2034. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Burgundy | 1 | 90-92 (VN) | HK$2,690.00 | |||||
Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Chablis Vaulorent 1er Cru replaces the Vaillons this year and Billaud's supplier could not deliver - only two barrels-worth. It has a taut and crisp bouquet with green apple and light wild peach aromas. The palate is firm with nice acidity; it's linear and correct with hints of white peach and pear towards the pretty finish. Very fine. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90)Pale lemon yellow, with a delicious. This is proper classical Chablis and is already good to drink, though will keep nicely. An oyster shell salinity features notably and the wine is properly persistent for a straight Chablis. Drink from 2024-2028. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Vinous (90-93)(tasted from a smaller stainless steel tank; this had previously been aging in barriques Very ripe aromas of peach and vanilla. Sweet, fat and fine-grained, with a distinctly silky texture to the apricot and almond flavors. Rather muscular and quite classically dry, and yet there's a suggestion of exotic ripeness throughout. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95)5 Star Wine. Mid lemon yellow. Immediately the nose has an extra lift over and above the Clos, the Preuses is powerful and spicy but also with a purity and elegant energy as well. There is a stunning intensity of fruit here with such a lift of energy. Fabulous dry extract and real length. Drink from 2029-2040. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Burgundy | 5 | 94 (IB) | HK$4,655.00 | |||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94)Lemony colour. A touch of the wet wool reduction, more usual on a wine with greater age, but not in itself suggesting evolution. This wet wool aromatic is really just a sulphur compound, I believe. Then very spicy behind with a raft of white fruit energy and good acidity. Hangs on in well, plenty of latent concentration, just closed at the moment. Drink from 2028-2038. Tasted Jul 2024. |

Burgundy | 2 | 88 (VN) | HK$1,800.00 | |||||
Vinous (88)The 2020 Chablis Tête d'Or derives only domaine fruit, and unlike the regular Chablis, it is aged a little longer with 25-30% barrels, mixed used and new with some 500-litre casks. It offers orchard fruit, touches of pressed white flowers on the nose and fine presence, but it's just missing a little personality. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, green apples with a touch of pear and a nice steely finish, albeit just missing a little length. |

Burgundy | 9 | 89 (BH) | HK$1,885.00 | |||||
Burghound (89)(from 2 parcels situated in the village of Bas de Chapelot raised in 25 to 30% five+ year old wood). A discreet dollop of wood sets off a similar set of aromas that offer a hint of wet stone. The mouthfeel of the medium weight flavors is also sleek and vibrant with a slightly finer texture that carries over to the balanced, youthfully austere and slightly more compact finale. This is very good for its level and worth considering. |

James Suckling (94)"This sees some time in wood and that adds a very attractive, savory edge to the typically vibrant Billecart attitude. There’s such intense blood-orange, lemon and fresh, zesty citrus fruit on offer here that really sings. The palate is scintillatingly fresh and has an extra layer of velvet at the edge. Drink or hold." |

Champagne | 1 | 97 (DC) | HK$4,510.00 | |||||
Decanter (97)A blend of 65% Pinot Noir consisting of Premier and Grand Crus from the Montagne de Reims and the Vallee de la Marne and 35% Chardonnay from the Cote des Blancs. Significantly, this has nine years ageing on its lees (longer than some Prestige Cuvees), the 2008 was first released onto the global market back in March 2019. With an Extra Brut dosage of 4g/l, this is a highly expressive, confident and convincing interpretation of the vintage. Right now, it is youthfully sharp and focused with fine salinity, depth, acidity and balance, and as such is already extremely approachable. The flavour spectrum encompasses toast, oyster shell, citrus, cream and a flinty, mineral depth. There’s supreme balance and elegance here, combined with a hidden underlying power that will continue to emerge and broaden with time. The finish is dry and long. |

There is a wealth of great French wine outside the ‘Big 4’ (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and Rhone). The Languedoc Roussillon with it’s herby, robust Mediterranean reds, Provence with its pale, vinous roses, Loire with its flinty Sauvignons, crunchy Cabernet Francs, and endlessly fascinating Chenins, Jura with its old fashioned curiosities… the list goes on. Tradition and terroir are the veins running through them all, making French wines still the most emulated in the world.
