"Cuvée Corcelette" Morgon Gamay 2016

Complex aromas of raspberries, red cherries, cedar and a hint of leather. Clean, high acidity and long finish. Peak beaujolais, really wish I had more Corcelette in the cellar. — 18 days ago

Domaine François Raveneau

Butteaux Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2013

A typical tale of Raveneau. Best after 3 hours in the decanter. I really do love Raveneau’s 13’s. It’s an early drinking vintage (by Raveneau standards) while you wait for the surrounding ones. There’s immense richness and depth of waxy yellow fruit and stony minerals on the palate with créme fraîche, spices and a touch of botrytis influenced saffron in its layered aromatics. Superb cut and racy lemony acids provide a seamless balance to its power and richness. No surprise, beautiful wine. — 10 days ago
