Tasting Note – The Wine Gang

“Distinctive on the nose, this premier cru domaine dry white Burgundy is traditional in style with the restrained, appley fruit flavours of the Chardonnay grape, an attractive richness and creaminess of texture, and an underlying note of minerality from its Chablis terroir: good overall balance and classic bone dry finish.”

Rating: 91 Points (Richard Jennings – Wine Critic)

“Medium dark golden color with 1 millimeter clear meniscus; sunflower oil, fino sherry, savory, VA nose; rich, oily textured, cashew, cashew butter, tart peach, apricot palate; long finish (would pair well with blue cheese, gorgonzola and marconi almonds).”

Rating: 90 Points (Wine Spectator)

Winemaker Notes: “Red wines from Beaune tend to show red fruit character that can range from fine and delicate to plump and succulent, depending on the location of the vineyard. Les Toussaints often shows more black fruit and riper flavors with accents of smoke, violets and spice.”

Rating: 90 Points (James Suckling)

A red with plenty of blueberry and blackcurrant character on the nose and palate. Full body, fine tannins and a pretty integration of fruit, acidity and tannins. Better in 2016 but delicious already. Second wine of Rauzan-Ségla.

Rating: 90 Points (Robert M. Parker, Jr.)

“Lots of underlying iron and earth notes dominate this dense ruby/purple wine, which also has plenty of cassis, black cherry and spice. It is chunky, masculine, medium to full-bodies and robust. It should benefit from several years of bottle age and last 15 or more.”

Product Description: "Aged for 16 months in large oak barrels. Bursting with red fruit, spices and earthiness, this is
supple and velvety, elegant and seamless with fine tannins and a great length."

Tasting Note: Veronique Boss-Drouhin

“A refined wine, well appreciated in the whole world. A beautiful golden colour and a great aromatic palette: honey, linden flower (“tilleul”), hazelnut butter, sometimes even chamomile or hawthorn. On the palate, a silky roundness. Long on the aftertaste, with flavours of yellow plum and gingerbread”.

Rating: 94 Points (James Suckling)

“Beautiful aromas of plums and filtered coffee follow through to a full body. Firm and silky tannins and a flavorful finish. Bright acidity and spice character. Tight and focused. Needs two or three years to open.” (2/2018)
