She's brought renewed energy, refined techniques, and a passion for organic viticulture. The Clerget wines were always classical, terroir-transparent, old school red Burgundy; Justine has maintained this spirit but added polish and class.
Clerget’s vines in the "En Orveaux" section of Echezeaux were planted in 1947, and the resulting wine is every bit a Grand Cru, worthy of reverence and some patience. Particularly in 2022 this is big, powerful wine, with smooth inky fruit resting on broad shoulders. Jasper Morris (93-95 points) called it “a charming and graceful Echezeaux;” Neal Martin suggested a drinking window of 2028-2045, finding it “beautifully defined, with lifted brambly red fruit, sous bois, and incense.” Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

Cheron has combined his properties under a new name, the Domaine du Couvent.
It is unquestionably a wine of Grand Cru density and intensity, if in a charming, elegant way rather than bold and muscular. Dark fruit and oak come through the nose along with an earthy minerality. Neal Martin praised its “lovely, very well defined bouquet of dark cherries, sous-bois and dark chocolate scents.” Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

For special occasions, we bring out the Grassl Cru or Grassl 1855 models. These are works of art – impossibly elegant, beautifully crafted stemware. At under 4 oz they weight less than your average corkscrew. They make you pause as you use them, which is kind of the point – they elevate their contents like little else we know. But our everyday glass is the Grassl Versatile. This is our weeknight glass, and we don't know what we'd do without it.
This set of 6 hand-blown, lead-free crystal glasses is designed to enhance all wine types – we serve literally every wine in it. Lightweight and elegant, they offer perfect clarity, balance, and comfort in every sip. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

(The wine may be labeled either “Mazoyères Grand Cru” or “Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru” at the producer’s election. Jasper Morris described it as having “immediate weight à la Charmes, but with a density and minerality which is more Mazoyeres”). Morris found “an enormous volume of fine dark fruit here,” praising its “excellent concentration” and its “long and sensual finish.” We found it beautiful, with dark briary blackberry fruit mixing with gingerbread and warm earth. We think Morris’s 95-97 rating is well deserved. If you have the budget and patience, this will be magnificent. Less (-) Free US Shipping |
