Michel Gros 2004 Chardonnay (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- $28
Light, fresh and delicate, this is an excellently balanced wine that punches above its station in terms of appellation. There are flavors of lemon zest, new wood and delicate vanilla and walnut tastes. It’s a great, ready-to-drink Chardonnay.

Domaine Jayer-Gilles 2006 Chardonnay (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- $52
An intriguingly perfumed wine that brings out highly spicy wood as well as ripe yellow fruits. This is light and ready to drink, and already enjoyable for its ripeness combined with a fresh, toasty finish.

Domaine Jayer-Gilles 2006 Pinot Noir (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- $59
A beautifully perfumed wine, not powerful, but delicate and delicious. The fruit, as with all of Gilles Jayer’s wines, is very pure, its raspberry flavors piercing through the tight tannins and prominent acidity. This is a fine expression of elegant, fresh Pinot Noir.

Manuel Olivier 2007 Chardonnay (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- Editors' Choice
- $20
A wine that is all about crispness, structure and bright fruits. The creamy texture from lees aging gives a rounder dimension, but the main thrust here is minerality coupled with delicious acidity.

Domaine Anne Gros 2006 Pinot Noir (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
This is initially rich, but it does have a distinct level of acidity that gives the wine fruit flavors that are more towards currants than stone fruit. The structure is all there, and the wine finishes with tight acidity.
— R.V.

Domaine Moillard 2005 Pinot Noir (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- $24
Delicious fresh Pinot Noir, this is a full of strawberries, smoky wood and juicy tannins. It is not a wine for aging, but makes the most of sheer pleasurable drinkability.
— R.V.

Domaine Emmanuel Giboulot 2009 Sous le Mont Pinot Noir (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- $45
In the 2009 vintage, the wines of the Hautes-Côtes have an extra richness and warmth. This wine has flavors of cherries, raspberries that give fine acidity, as well as fruitiness. The tannins are already well integrated, finishing a wine that is deliciously juicy.

Domaine Jayer-Gilles 2007 Chardonnay (Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits)
- $45
There is an edge of minerality, a tight texture. But that lies on a wine that has some weight and richness, white fruits giving a broad swathe of ripeness, just brought into line by the taut acidity.
— R.V.
