Lucien Le Moine is the Beaune micro-negociant run by Mounir Saouma, who built a cult reputation not by farming but by mastering elevage, the art of raising wine in barrel. He buys already-fermented wines made by hand, then ages them in oak with a famously deft, hands-off touch that draws out perfume and depth. Lavaux Saint-Jacques is one of Gevrey-Chambertin's finest premier crus, and Saouma's restrained style lets its cool fruit and complex mid-palate sing rather than over-extracting it. This 2005, from a great Burgundy vintage, is mature and complex.

"Red-ruby. Wild aromas of raspberry, coffee, game and animal fur. Suave, smooth and mouthfilling, with dark fruit flavors complicated by violet and game; this is a step up over the foregoing samples in concentration and breadth. The wild character carries through on the palate. Finishes with palate-staining length." —Stephen Tanzer

"What texture. Rich and silky, until the tannins show up at the party, this red features blackberry, raspberry, red currant and spice flavors. Has purity, with a well-integrated structure to match and a fine, fresh finish."
