Domaine Emmanuel Giboulot 2009 La Grand Chatelaine Chardonnay (Côte de Beaune)
- $55
A rounded wine, although still young. It has ripe fruit, creamed apples and fresh acidity. The wood flavors give an extra smoothness as well as a more complex long-lasting finish.

Domaine Emmanuel Giboulot 2009 Les Pierres Blanches Chardonnay (Côte de Beaune)
A soft wine, favoring warm fruit, pear and peach flavors, the minerality coming later. The wine is crisp and fresh, with an intensity of acidity rare in 2009. That suggests it will age, although it is already fruity and refreshing.

Joseph Drouhin 2009 Pinot Noir (Côte de Beaune)
- $34
One of the classic wines from Drouhin, this concentrated and ripe wine has rich tannins, certainly laced with wood. Plum and red-fruit flavors are a delicious presence to go with the firm, solid structure. Age for 3–4 years.

Domaine Emmanuel Giboulot 2009 La Combe d’Eve Chardonnay (Côte de Beaune)
- $75
A very perfumed ripe wine. The fruit flavors range from mango through peach to a taut citric finish. With just a hint of wood, this is a bright and fruity wine, delicious to drink now.

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2003 Côte de Beaune les Pierres Blanches Chardonnay (Côte de Beaune)
- $45
Planted directly onto a chalk substrate, this wine shows a great mineral character that complements flavors of white currants on the palate. Imported by Boisset America.

Joseph Drouhin 2001 Pinot Noir (Côte de Beaune)
- Online Exclusive
- $23
Lean and tart but nicely textured, this lightweight Pinot offers understated cherry and leather aromas and flavors. Picks up some chocolate and a layered texture on the finish.

Chateau de Mercey 2001 Vignes en Lyre Chardonnay (Côte de Beaune)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
Starts off promising, with pretty aromas of smoke, green apples and limes, but by the finish, the amount of charred oak distracts from the plump fruit flavors that form the core of this wine.
