Albert Morot 2006 Toussaints Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Beaune)
- Cellar Selection
- $75
Very mineral and structured, this is a wine that needs aging. The tannins at this stage are firm, dry, dense, forming a solid core. Around this floats the red cherry and red currant fruit flavors, just sweet and lifted by acidity, Give it at least five years.

Albert Morot 2006 Beaune Teurons Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Beaune)
- $75
Intensely fruity initially, with red cherry and raspberry fruit flavors, this wine then opens into more secondary flavors. There is a definite barnyard, smoky edge, followed by dark, dry tannins and a mineral edge. It is worth aging for 3–4 years.

Albert Morot 2006 Beaune Aigrots Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Beaune)
- Editors' Choice
- $75
Poised between a rich, soft Pinot Noir and one with structure, this wine from a lesser-known premier cru is delicious. The fruits are restrained, but there is exuberance from the acidity, the fine tannins and the jammy finish. A wine that is evolving already, but will also age well.

Albert Morot 2006 Beaune Bressandes Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Beaune)
- $75
Finely balanced, this wine brings together rich, red fruits, a core of dry tannins and a delicious fresh acidity in a harmonious whole. Maybe that means its aging period will be short, but for drinking over the next 2–3 years, this is already very attractive.

Albert Morot 2006 Beaune Cent-Vignes Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Beaune)
- $75
In an immediately attractive soft cushioned, perfumed style, this is ripe, buoyed with fresh strawberry juice and balancing fresh, almost sweet, acidity. The wine is smooth, layering the light tannins with the intense fruits.

Albert Morot 2006 La Bataillère aux Vergelesses Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Savigny-lès-Beaune)
- $61
A dark, black-fruited style of wine, toughened by tannins, but showing good black plum juice flavors. There is a sinewy edge here that promises some aging. Allied to the sweet acidity, this is a complex, flavorsome wine.
