Moderately saturated medium red. Medicinal aromas of red cherry, fresh herbs, licorice and exotic spices. Offers lovely sweetness and intensity of flavor, with a firm tannic spine giving it structure and grip. This boasts good breadth but shows some slightly bitter medicinal austerity and is evolving very slowly. Marie-Blanche says the family owns parcels at the top, middle and bottom of this huge grand cru vineyard.Inc. VAT£1,812.41 -

(bottled one month ago) Subtly complex nose combines peach, apple, pear, minerals, hazelnut and smoke. Explosively fruity in the mouth, with firm acidity and brisk citrus flavors giving the mid-palate terrific focus and lift. As rich as this is, it conveys a lovely light touch. Finishes firmly structured, vibrant and very long. A very good year for this style.Inc. VAT£915.20 -

The 2006 Puligny-Montrachet Folatières from Leflaive was layered, rich and weighty, with tons of character, while Sauzet’s 2006 Puligny-Montrachet Referts showed more of a flinty, mineral-driven personality. Both were beautiful.Inc. VAT£3,243.95 -

Good medium red. Highly nuanced, soil-driven aromas of strawberry, flinty minerality, roasted herbs and crushed rocks. Powerful and stunningly pure, with explosive fruit framed and complicated by pungent minerality and high notes of pepper and spice. This extremely primary wine boasts outstanding precision but is almost brutal today. The tannins reach the incisors on the extremely long and tactile finish.Inc. VAT£8,111.60 -
(3x75cl) 2006Burghound (95)
This is quite ripe though not surmature, featuring a fresh array of distinctly earthy and ever so slightly rustic red and blue fruit aromas that are in perfect keeping with the robust, muscled and powerful full-bodied flavors underpinned by mouth coating tannins and superb concentration on the strikingly long finish. As impressive as this is, and it's very impressive, after the fireworks provided by the RSV and the Riche, it doesn't quite have the game to fully match up. Still, I hope to have the pleasure of trying a glass or two when it finally reaches full maturity.Inc. VAT£18,751.15 -

Medium red. Deeply pitched aromas of black cherry, mocha, smoke and earth. Fat on entry, then very ripe, concentrated and full, but with harmonious acidity giving lift to the saline, earth and mineral flavors. The substantial dusty tannins arrive late, but this very young wine is still hiding more than it's showing.Inc. VAT£13,739.52 -
(1x75cl) 2006Vinous (92+)
Bright red. Aromas of red berries, violet, smoke, truffle and earth. Sweet and lush in the mouth; very rich but less expressive today than on the nose. This will age more on its strong but even tannins than on its acids. Doesn't offer quite the snap of the Beaux-Monts though.Inc. VAT£6,955.45 -
(6x75cl) 2006Wine Spectator (93)
Dark and lush, revealing black cherry, blackberry and chocolate, but also mineral flavors. Ripe and fresh, this is underscored by fine-grained tannins. The finish echoes black currant and spice notes. Very supple. Best from 2011 through 2023. -BSInc. VAT£1,199.60 -

Good deep red. Subdued nose hints at musky minerality and exotic herbs. The stone, spice and herbal flavors show terrific lift from calcaire; this is rather like sucking on rocks today. A very stony expression of Chambolle that displays excellent energy without any impression of weight. Purist's wine.Inc. VAT£208.67 -
(6x75cl) 2006Wine Spectator (92)
Still reserved, showing cherry, wild strawberry, mineral and spice aromas and flavors that gain steam on the palate as this builds to a long finish. The tannins still have a firm grip, so be patient. Best from 2012 through 2025. -BSInc. VAT£816.80 -
Vinous (91-95)
Good deep red. Pungent aromas of blueberry, smoke, minerals and game. Lush, sexy and deep, with powerful extract and sappiness to its deep core of fruit. A metallic, iodiney quality and a saline element communicate a strong impression of the soil. This firmly structured wine coats the entire palate on the aftertaste, finishing with serious tannins and a note of coffee. Saouma noted that this grand cru was vinified with about one-third of its stems and underwent a long maceration; he planned to bottle most of it in magnums.Inc. VAT£1,857.12 -
(6x75cl) 2006Vinous (92+)
Deep, dark red. Reserved nose offers medicinal black cherry and minerals. Powerful, tactile and penetrating, with sappy black cherry, menthol and mineral flavors that really saturate the palate. Finishes long and gripping, with building ripe tannins. Strong and serious wine. These top 2006s call for seven or eight years of patience.Inc. VAT£2,735.60 -

At age 11, the 2006 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Cros Parantoux is beginning to show some evolution, offering up a complex and quite ripe nose of sweet red plum, grilled squab, candied peel and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, deep and concentrated, structured around a bright vertical line of acidity that lends superb energy and definition.Inc. VAT£30,855.49 -
Vinous (94)
Very good deep red. Black fruits, licorice, dark chocolate and sweet oak on the very ripe nose. Large-scaled and compellingly sweet, with wonderfully ripe, sappy dark berry flavors conveying a chewy impression of solidity. A very ripe 2006 whose solid tannic backbone and excellent persistence suggest that it will evolve slowly. If you can't wait to taste this, give it time in a decanter first.Inc. VAT£1,103.33 -

A graphite accent introduces this pure cherry- and rose-flavored red. There's some serious yet ripe tannins underneath, and despite its balance, this needs time to come together. Best from 2011 through 2020. 320 cases made. -BSInc. VAT£1,750.18 -

Good full red. Musky red fruits on the nose. Sweet, supple and rather suave, with raspberry and cherry flavors lifted by spice. Today I don't find the mineral cut of the best vintages, but this rather fat wine finishes with smooth tannins and very good length.Inc. VAT£7,705.78 -

Deep red. Wild, complex nose melds raspberry, leather and game. Silky and round but with lively mineral pungency giving definition and grip to the flavors of raspberry and gibier Finishes with substantial tannic power, a subtle saline character and superb length. This is all real Charmes, notes Potel, who told me that he made 100 barrels of grand cru red wine in 2006.Inc. VAT£258.53 -
Vinous (91-94)
Red-ruby. Reticent aromas of redcurrant, dried flowers, iron, smoke, rocks and gingery spice. Bright and sappy on the palate, with insidious sweetness and intensity to its dark fruit flavors. Very stylish wine, finishing pure, spicy and long, with firm but very fine tannins.Inc. VAT£508.13 -
Vinous (88-90)
(this, the Gevrey and the Charmes-Chambertin were the only 2006s that had been racked as of early November) Good full red. Sappy raspberry and cherry aromas show a slightly liqueur-like aspect. Fat and dry, with a red raspberry flavor complicated by notes of iron, smoke and meat. A concentrated, soil-driven wine that's a bit heavy and lacking in high notes for Chambolle. (There's no Morey villages in 2006 as the vines were replaced after the 2005 harvest.)Inc. VAT£878.00 -

Sweetly ripe black fruits in the nose of the Ponsot 2006 Clos de La Roche Cuvee Vieilles Vignes prepare the way for a more succulently, generously sweet fruit, plush texture, and generally sunny disposition than that presented by the corresponding Clos St.-Denis. Ripe cherry and red currant flood the creamy, silken palate with sweetness, while some of the same notes of citrus oil, floral perfume (here iris), and peat as exhibited in the Clos St.-Denis swirl about, too. Saline, chalky suggestions help offer contrast and a sounding board to the fruit, and this finishes with exhilarating lift, riveting interplay, and phenomenal length. Here is a combination of textural allure and backbone for which velvet gloves and iron fists seem inappropriately mundane – not merely archaic – metaphors. Blind – I must confess (and did, to Ponsot) – that I would more likely have guessed this to be Musigny than Clos de la Roche. In an extreme instance of a phenomenon shared by many of the best 2006s, I find this irresistible now; find it hard to imagine its having ornery or sulking phases; yet expect it will be worth following for 20 years.Inc.

From Ponsot's monopole Clos des Mont Luisants (virtually surrounded by grand crus, and which, he opines, represents as steep a slope as exists in the Cote de Nuits), the 2006 Morey-St.-Denis 1er Cru Cuvee des Alouettes exhibits a healthy, deep color; a nose of well-hung game, cassis, blackberry, and dark chocolate; a creamy richness rare in this vintage; and a low-toned finish in which the wine's abundance of tannins becomes evident as a fine, subtly-abrasive though relatively well fruit-covered spread. The more this opened to the air, though, the more game-like notes dominated, so one should probably treat that as an omen for the wine's future rather than a temporary manifestation of reduction which would in any case be rare at Ponsot where the wines are not sulfured.Inc.

2006 was a marvellous year for white Burgundy. The wines excellent structure and more forward aromas than the 2005’s. They can be enjoyed young or considerable aged with is often the mark of a great wine. 2006 red Burgundy’s development has impressed and surprised. This was a vintage which allowed winemakers to really make their stylistic impressions on the wine. An interesting year for Burgundy enthusiasts.
