Chablis William Fevre (12 x 75cl)
Score: 88/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"A very clean, fresh, bright and airy nose that offers good Chablis character on the white flower and green fruit nose that introduces energetic and mineral-infused flavors that are both delicious and deliver fine finishing volume. Good quality at this level." Allen Meadows, Burghound

Chablis William Fevre (6 x Magnums)
Score: 88/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"A very clean, fresh, bright and airy nose that offers good Chablis character on the white flower and green fruit nose that introduces energetic and mineral-infused flavors that are both delicious and deliver fine finishing volume. Good quality at this level." Allen Meadows, Burghound

Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons William Fevre (12 x 75cl)
Score: 88-91/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"An overtly spicy nose that is a mix of floral, green fruit and sea breeze merges into big, rich and intense flavors that are not especially fine though there is admirable concentration and dry extract. This is round and attractive but less persistent than the best of these 1ers." Allen Meadows, Burghound
£160
Chablis 1er Cru Montmains William Fevre (12 x 75cl)
Score: 89-92/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"(From Foret, Butteaux and Montmains proper in roughly equal amounts). An airy and intensely floral nose nuanced by hints of salt water and iodine is much more elegant than that of the Beauroy and merges into the balanced, precise and detailed middle weight flavors, all wrapped in a long finish replete with plenty of oyster shell character. This is a lovely wine in every respect plus it will age." Allen Meadows, Burghound
£160
Chablis 1er Cru Montee de Tonnerre William Fevre (12 x 75cl)
Score: 91-93/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"(From 1/3 Pied d'Aloup and the rest from Chapelot). A wonderfully expressive pure, elegant and airy nose of white flowers and oyster shell notes gives way to round yet precise and palate staining medium full flavors that possess both power and weight yet deliver them with grace and refinement. This wine impressed me to no end for sense of balance and harmony." Allen Meadows, Burghound
£190
Chablis Grand Cru Bougros Cote Bougerots William Fevre (6 x 75cl)
Score: 91-94/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"As it always is, this is more elegant and refined than the regular cuvee of Bougros with high-toned citrus, stone and sea breeze aromas dissolving into powerful, focused and pure flavors that are precise and wonderfully intense plus offering the same impressive level of dry extract and an almost aggressively mineral and hugely long finish. I have always very much liked the character of this wine as it manages to pull off blending raw power with elegance and not losing either element in the bargain." Allen Meadows, Burghound
£180
Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos William Fevre (6 x 75cl)
Score: 92-95/100, Burghound Commune: Chablis
"An airy, expressive and ultra refined and pure nose of white flower, quinine, saline, minerals and seashore nuances trimmed in discrete wood gives way to rich and robust, indeed huge flavors that are perhaps a bit less refined than those of the Valmur or Preuses but there is another dimension here of depth that more than compensates. A great wine with a long future that should develop slowly yet because of all the mid-palate fat, be enjoyable young." Allen Meadows, Burghound

Bourgogne Rouge Domaine Ghislaine Barthod (12 x 75cl)
Score: 16/20, Bibendum Commune: Chambolle-Musigny
Very attractive, typically Barthod nose. Firm but fresh with crunchy red fruit, this shames many village wines from elsewhere.

Chassagne-Montrachet Les Houillieres Domaine Morey-Coffinet (12 x 75cl)
Score: 16.5/20, Bibendum Commune: Chassagne-Montrachet
Very fragrant peachy nose and great texture and balance on the palate too. Ripe, savoury, mineral finish.
£175
Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Romanee Domaine Morey-Coffinet (12 x 75cl)
Score: 17/20, Bibendum Commune: Chassagne-Montrachet
Subtler, more complex nose than the others with tight minerality and acidity and just a scraping of the butter knife on the finish. Very long.
£270

Score: 17/20, Bibendum Commune: Chassagne-Montrachet
Crisp and mineral with lovely purity and elegance. Good freshness and length on the finish.

Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru Domaine Morey-Coffinet (12 x 75cl)
Score: 18/20, Bibendum Commune: Chassagne-Montrachet
Rather closed at present, but the intensity and length of the finish indicate this will blossom into a beauty.
£780
Bourgogne Blanc Domaine Tollot-Beaut (6 x 75cl)
Score: 15.5/20, Bibendum Commune: Chorey-les-Beaune
Lovely weight and richness of Chardonnay fruit. Freshness too. A very good buy.
