Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (88)Lovely stuff, clean and pale, with a lean linear approach. More expressive juicy apple fruit on the palate, with a clearcut and somewhat saline finish. Very good. Drink from 2024-2026. Tasted Jul 2024. |

The Rolet Arbois Tradition 2018 is a luxurious expression of Jura's wine craftsmanship. Born in France's scenic Jura region, this vintage is crafted by esteemed winemakers Rolet Père et Fils, who've been adorning fine wine collections since 1942. The wine is a harmonious blend of three delectable grapes: Poulsard, Trousseau, and Pinot Noir. From meticulous cultivation to being aged in large oak foudres, every intricate step lends a distinct character to each bottle. The result? A complex yet balanced wine that delivers an enigmatic bouquet of baked red fruits, subtle spices and earthy undertones. The palate is medium-bodied, the tannins well-integrated, finishing with a tantalisingly persistent finish. In essence, the Rolet Arbois Tradition 2018 merges heritage and artisanal winemaking, enhancing any dinner table with its refined elegance, capturing the essence of Jura's terroir in every sip. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (88)The 2015 Rolland de By has come together nicely since I tasted it from barrel. There is plenty of both depth and definition to the dark cherry, tobacco and grilled herb flavors. Pliant, supple and inviting, the 2015 will drink nicely for at least the next handful of years. |

Tim Atkin MW (96)Made with 50% whole bunches in 2012, this has notes of pepper and clove spice on the nose and palate. There's plenty of sweet vanilla oak too, with chalky minerality and a hint of reduction on the palate. The wine was picked earlier and shows charming red fruits that complement the savoury undertones. |

Vinous (89-92)Good full red. Darker but less perfumed on the nose than the Latricières, offering aromas of black raspberry and licorice complicated by smoke and cocoa powder and perked up by peppery spices. Silky-sweet in the mouth; clearly the plushest and densest of these 2014s to this point. There's more mid-palate stuffing here to support the slightly dusty, late-arriving tannins. This is always a dense wine, notes David Rossignol--closer to Chambertin in style than to Griottes, for example. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2017 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru comes from two plots, apparently from 2019 the domaine plans two separate cuvées, one from the lieu-dit of Les Gemeaux. It has an understated, beautifully defined bouquet that gradually unfurls in the glass: brambly red berry fruit, autumn leaves and hints of tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin. This is born with a pitch perfect line of acidity that imparts an engaging sense of harmony, very pure with a dash of spice on the finish. Superb. |

Vinous (95)The 2018 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru has a more feminine and elegant bouquet than the Latricières, offering pure red berry fruit, pressed rose petals and light sous-bois notes, all very precise. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a superb line of acidity, good cohesion and more precision than the Latricières toward the wonderfully persistent finish. This should age with style. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (93)The 2021 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru has a slightly bricking hue, presumably due to whole bunch addition. The nose delivers on that, overtly stemmy to the point that it masks the red berry fruit and used tea leaf scents behind it. Thankfully, they do seem to be assimilated with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, again quite stemmy and brittle. There is plenty of freshness here but if you don't like whole cluster Burgundy, avoid. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (89-92)Mid purple, the bouquet perhaps a fraction less than fresh though just taken. There is clearly more volume here of a dark fruit with some blueberry, a few more tannins, more solid than the regular village wine. Needs freshening up at which point should merit a higher score. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted Nov 2024. |

Burghound (89-91)A completely different nose is brooding and exceptionally earthy with both red and dark berry aromas that are cut with floral top notes. The sleek and tautly muscular flavors possess notably more weight and drive while being shaped by much firmer tannins on the youthfully austere finale. At least some patience will be required. |

The most prevalent and recognised or 'international grape' varieties in the world are mostly of French origin. The enduring popularity and respect of French wine has meant that Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvingon, Merlot and many others have been exported and experimented with around the world.
