Louis Max 2010 Les Rochelles Chardonnay (Mercurey)
- Online Exclusive

At this stage, this is a taut, minerally wine that’s dominated by tight acidity. Pears and green plums are the lead flavors, with a touch of wood and a zing of crispness on the finish. Age for two years to round it out.

Louis Max 2010 Vieilles Vignes Chardonnay (Pouilly-Fuissé)
- Online Exclusive
- $21
A wine with some concentration and a full, fruity character, this balances a light structure with a generous, wood-laced fruit flavor. While it’s drinkable now, this shows potential to age.

Louis Max 2001 Les Lièvres Pinot Noir (Nuits-St.-Georges)
- $46
It’s good to see a more mature red Burgundy still available, and the extra maturity has allowed this wine to develop some of the classic gamy character of Pinot Noir. It is in a traditional style, here a positive charactertistic, giving weight but also showing delicious ripeness.

Louis Max 2004 Pinot Noir (Gevrey-Chambertin)
- $46
A ripe, structured wine with plenty of the robust, generous character of Gevrey-Chambertin. On top of the solid tannins are black plums, some spices and a coating of delicious, juicy acidity. Ready to drink, but it should age well over the next few years.

Louis Max 2009 Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

Serious and structured, this has dark, smoky flavors, with red-fruit acidity. The wine has good potential, with its jammy fruit heart surrounded by tannins that will soften.
