Burghound 94 points " A highly expressive and very broad nose of superb aromatic complexity that includes earth, game, spice, red currant, plum, violets and a hint of the sauvage. The round and supple flavors possess outstanding detail and while the complexity doesn't quite match that of the exquisite nose, it's not far behind and this culminates in a beautifully balanced and harmonious finish that delivers striking persistence, a wine of finesse and refinement. In a word, beautiful."

 

Domaine des Lambrays’ 2010 Clos des Lambrays Grand Cru in magnum format comes from the historic monopole vineyard in Morey-Saint-Denis. The domaine, led by the Bordet and Fabre families, farms old‑vine Pinot Noir biodynamically on limestone-clay slopes and ferments with native yeasts.

Ageing occurred in a combination of new and one-year-old oak barrels, delivering refined structure, mature red fruit, forest-floor notes, and seamless balance. This flagship Grand Cru sits atop the domaine’s portfolio, showcasing fully developed Burgundian elegance in a prestigious format.

"A highly expressive and very broad nose of superb aromatic complexity that includes earth, game, spice, red currant, plum, violets and a hint of the sauvage. The round and supple flavors possess outstanding detail and while the complexity doesn't quite match that of the exquisite nose, it's not far behind and this culminates in a beautifully balanced and harmonious finish that delivers striking persistence. I also had a chance to retaste the 2009 and it is bigger, richer and more powerful while the 2010 is much more of a wine of finesse and refinement. In a word, beautiful."

"Bright pale-medium red. Higher-pitched but more reticent on the nose than the 2012, showing a distinctly floral aspect as well as a redder fruit quality; more delicate and pristine. Wonderfully sexy and complex if somewhat youthfully tight in the mouth, conveying an ineffable silkiness of texture rather than the sheer plushness of the '12. Less dark in its fruit character as well, offering flavors of red raspberry, cherry, brown spices and underbrush. Wonderfully tactile and delineated; this really glistens on the palate and on the very long, refined aftertaste. Here the tannins are suaver than those of the 2012. More about finesse than power, but this wine will nonetheless need time to express itself more fully. An essence of terroir and a wine of great verve." -Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

RP 94
"Thierry Brouin has crafted a sublime 2010 Clos des Lambrays that should age with grace and style. It has an intense bouquet of wild hedgerow, black cherries, crushed stone and dried flowers that demonstrates even greater delineation and focus than the impressive 2009. The palate has a core of fine tannins, plenty of fresh, red berry fruit and a delicate, focused, terroir-driven finish that has plenty of power and breadth, yet remains contained and never flashy. This is a beautiful Clos des Lambrays that deserves a decade in the cellar?if you can resist temptation!" -Neal Martin

"Seems even a little muted after the Cuvée des Loups! Well balanced but statesmen-like."

Decanter

D 96
"Brouin had me taste a barrel sample from grapes picked after the rains: full body and good sap. Another sample from grapes picked before the rains: more vivacity and intensity. The finished wine, tasted in June 2014: juicy red berry and cool blue fruit, grip and excellent freshness. Tannic, salty finish bodes well for ageing. If not as rich as either the 2009 or 2012, it has superior harmony, and at 25 hl/ha, good density."

Wine Spectator

WS 94
"A supple red, loaded with spice and berry flavors that lean toward cedar, sandalwood, currant and strawberry. Underscored by a fusion of earth and mineral accents, this is buoyed by the seamless structure. Fresh and delicate, but by no means easy, offering a long conclusion."

Focus On: Burgundy

Burgundy has long been the world's most famous wine region. But, underneath all the prestige, this region can be hard to get to know.

While Burgundy offers many great trophies from top producers in well-known villages like Vosne Romanee and Puligny Montrachet, it also offers excellent values to anyone willing to explore beyond the famous names. Our collection– one of the largest in the U.S. – has plenty of both!

From the very basics of Burgundy's regions and wines to the specific terroirs of individual single vineyards--
everything you need to know about Bourgogne is just a click away!
