Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 89
"Good full red. Superripe, perfumed aromas of raspberry, redcurrant, coffee and smoke, along with hints of confiture and game. Ripe and mouthfilling, but sound acidity frames and carries the fruit. Finishes quite long, with substantial but rather elegant tannins." -Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

RP 92
"Aged in 33% new oak barrels, the medium-to-dark ruby-colored 1997 Volnay Clos des Chenes offers red and black cherry aromas. This velvety-textured, elegant, beautifully fashioned wine is replete with sweet cherries and oak spices. It offers liquid satin with syrupy fresh fruit. A delight to drink today, it should easily hold for 6-7 years." - Pierre Rovani

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!
