A broad, spicy wine, ripe with plenty of sweet mango and peach fruits to go with the green fruit acidity. It is already delicious but will develop further over the next 2–3 years.

This is solid, borderline burly, a big wine that boasts some good dense tannins over the delicious red fruits. If it has weight, it also has fresh berry, sweet acidity and a touch of currant juice. Cleanly made, but there is just a hint of funky rusticity to give good complexity.

Owned by the Devillard family, Château de Chamirey produces firmly textured wines. This Mercurey is on the dry side, while not losing sight of fresh red-berry fruits and bright acidity.

A deliciously sweet, warm wine, coming from pear juice and white peach fleshiness. It is ripe, balanced with rounded acidity, with spice enlivening the creamy feel. The toast and edge of tight structure promise 3–4 years’ aging. Imported by Frederick Wildman & Sons, Ltd.

This fairly rich Chardonnay is a fine introduction to white Burgundy, boasting plump pear and pineapple fruit yet blending in enough mineral and hazelnut nuance to mark it as something different.

A deliciously refreshing wine that bursts with citrus freshness, rounded out by white currant and pear flavors. The wood hints are attractively subtle, giving a wine of poise, elegance. Age for six months for it to show at its best. Imported by Frederick Wildman & Sons, Ltd.

A real strawberry-flavored wine, full of soft sweetness and pure fresh flavors. The wine bursts with fruit, the tannins just enough but in definite second place. Obviously not a wine for aging, but a pleasure to drink now. Imported by Frederick Wildman & Sons, Ltd.
