Alain Geoffroy's estate produces this old vine premier cru from the Beauroy vineyard, accepted as one of the region's best. This is a very classic style, with aromas of white flowers, tinged with honey and lemon and a rich, rounded palate with those benchmark flinty notes.

Red Declicious apple come clothed in a berryish, fruity guise. The smooth, rounded palate also homes in on Red Delicious ripeness, layering rich fruit onto berry charm and citrus brightness. This wine is easy, generous, bold and fruity, with a dry finish. Anne Krebiehl MW 90/100

Alain Geoffroy's estate produces this old vine premier cru from the Vau Ligneau vineyard in the cooler far west of Chablis, accepted as one of the region's best examples of this vineyard. The vines are on Kimmeridgian soils, rich in minerals and oyster fossils. Crunchy green apple on the palate. Plenty of acidity to keep the palate fresh with a stony character on the finish. Appealing and ready now, perhaps best to drink this over the next two to three years. Geoffroy recommends pairing the wine with cooked oysters, fine poultry, veal escalope or cheese.

Domaine René Bouvier is widely regarded as one of the producers that has transformed the reputation of Marsannay from an overlooked appellation into one of Burgundy's most exciting sources of Pinot Noir. "En Ouzeloy" is a single-vineyard Pinot Noir from one of the lesser-known but highly regarded lieux-dits of Marsannay, at the northern end of Burgundy's Côte de Nuits. We recommend drinking this wine during its dynamic first 5 years, but it can be kept for longer. It may be necessary to decant certain vintages in their first few years. Depending on the vintage, the estate uses 50% whole-bunch fermentation. The wine is aged for about 12 months in barrels (with 15% of new barrels) and 6 months in stainless steel tanks. Bright ruby in colour, with expressive aromas of red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry, layered with hints of violet, liquorice, gentle spice and flinty minerality. The palate is elegant and finely structured, offering vibrant acidity, silky tannins and impressive purity of fruit. A subtle earthy complexity emerges with time in the glass, leading to a long, fresh finish that reflects the limestone soils of Marsannay.

100% Chardonnay grown on limestone slopes in the best areas of the Macon. Made by the excellent Buxy cooperative, in stainless steel tanks then bottled after several months on lees. Floral and citrus notes, mouthwatering acidity and lovely long flavour. A superb introduction to White Burgundy this overdelivers for its price.

This excellent white Burgundy comes from the intermediate clay/limestone slopes in the commune of Montagny. Very complex aromas on the nose, with successive fruity, floral and mineral hints, with particular menthol and lemon overtones. A full-bodied and rich wine with amazing finesse and delicate aromas.

Morgon is one of the ten 'Crus' of Beaujolais, the name for special wines allowed to carry the name of the viillage around which the vineyards are planted. Morgon offers a fuller expression of Beaujolais and takes on Pinot Noir-like maturity with a few years bottle age, even though it is made from 100% Gamay. A palate of juicy red fruit is introduced with floral aromas on the nose of rose and peony with flecks of cracked black peppercorns. The mouthfeel is fleshy with velvety tannins. Try with barbequed sausages or a fruity Moroccan tagine.

Aged for 2 years this Pinot based Cremant has Berry fruit and toasty aromas. The palate shows yeasty biscuit, very champagne like. Fantastic value.
