Red wines from Burgundy

Aromatic, juicy Gamay with good acidity and aromas of ripe, peppery fruit with maybe a touch of leather.

Unfined and unfiltered, like all the estate's wines, this is a light but rewarding red with attractive berry fruit that—although not made from Pinot Noir—is a true expression of the racy elegance of Burgundy.

Frédéric Roblot is the latest generation of a family that has worked the land at Chambolle-Musigny since 1910.

He has turned the focus of the business towards estate bottled wines meant for relatively early drinking, and for drinking pleasure.

This poised and supple Bourgogne introduces his red range, and offers attractive red fruit character that develops earthier notes as it ages, structured by smooth tannins.

The Géantet-Pansiot style keeps rounded, intense fruit to the fore, and even in this expression of the tricky, small-berried Pinot Fin grape (an ancestor of Pinot Noir) there's a ripe, brambly, herbal nose full of nuance.

In the mouth there's fine focus and freshness, leaner than the generous aromas might indicate, but the wine is juicy and natural and deliciously delicate.

Intense red fruit in a supple, inviting Pinot Noir from biodynamic vineyards.

There is good, buoyant body, in typical Pommard fashion, as this rich and harmonious wine leads with tangy, sweetly spicy redcurrant and cranberry fruit followed by 'forest floor' complexity and hints of tobacco and leather.

It's a fine match for game, goose or lamb.

This Demeter certified Pinot Noir offers very good quality at the price and a true taste of Burgundy.

There's plenty of fruit apparent on the nose, strawberry and cherry aromas mingling with tealeaf brightness and warm spice notes.

This is a medium-bodied and beautifully balanced wine, with fresh acidity and complementary tannins shaping earthy red and black fruit flavours. Frédéric Rossignol doesn't filter his red wines, and frequent tastings and gentle treatment in the cellar keep them supple and rounded.

Aged in twenty per cent new barrels, this beautifully balanced Pinot Noir offers both red and black fruit character, veiled in spice and with no little power.

At its best between five and eight years of age, it's a magnificent choice for a rich poultry dish or a selection of riper cheeses.

From the southern tip of the Aloxe-Corton appellation on limestone-clay soils, this is a deeply coloured and firmly flavoured wine.

Its concentrated raspberry and black cherry aromas introduce a firm, structured mouthful, with assertive but ripe fruit freshness and plush, silky tannins.

There's a hint of blackcurrant in the red fruit aromas, borne out in a juicy, elegant freshness in the mouth.

This is a silky, juicy Pinot Noir to drink now, with roasts, steaks and more richly flavoured dishes.

Attractive, invitingly earthy redcurrant and blackcurrant aromas and more complex riches on the palate in a classic Pinot Noir.

All elegance and freshness, this is a perfect partner for roasts or poultry and will keep for up to ten years, thanks to fine tannins and typical assertive acidity.

From biodynamically managed vines overlooking the village of Pommard, this is an inviting and expressive Pinot Noir.

Frédéric Rossignol assesses the grapes from each parcel in each vintage before deciding on how to proceed in the cellar. The red wines of the estate are not filtered, and gentle blending of the juice with the cap means that supple, elegant tannins are a feature of his winemaking style.

Aromas of raspberries and roses with hints of leather introduce darker flavours of cherries and blueberries borne up by fresh acidity and polished tannins.

Earthy flavours at the table will suit this fine bottle well.>

Just six hundred bottles or so are made of this rare treat, which expresses the Clos Rousseau climat in a still more intense and refined red than the estate's village Santenay.

Deep crimson colour and punchy red fruit character evolve to reveal darker tones of woodland flora and even liquorice that linger along with fine, shaping tannins.

This is an ideal match for strong, gamy flavours—not necessarily those of game, but of any rich savoury dish.

A rich and subtle red from limestone soils, with deep, purplish colour and fresh red fruit character that develops into spicy, darker notes of chocolate and leather with age.

Lots of soft red fruit in a a structured but rounded wine that suits all kinds of food.

Only a couple of thousand bottles are made of this straightforward and tasty Pinot Noir from the north of the Côte de Beaune. Though it's delicious young, it will keep for up to five years.

Aromatic, juicy Gamay with good acidity and aromas of ripe, peppery fruit with maybe a touch of leather.

Unfined and unfiltered, like all the estate's wines, this is a light but rewarding red with attractive berry fruit that—although not made from Pinot Noir—is a true expression of the racy elegance of Burgundy.

A thrilling marriage of power and elegance, with Vincent Géantet's house style of uninhibited fruit and delicious, evocative aromatic complexity.

Smooth, silky cherry and raspberry character blend with gamy and more chalky, mineral notes to give a balanced and persistent premier cru Pinot Noir experience.

An utterly beguiling wine, with an almost incomparable fragrance of complex, subtle spice and deep, exhilarating fruit intensity.

The impressive power of this wine is delivered with ethereal, effortless grace. Sumptuous dark cherry and strawberry fruit with mineral, herbal length.

This is a Clos de Vougeot of the highest order, and though already seductive, it will certainly repay keeping for five years and much longer.

Even while it's young, there's an exhilarating spiciness and depth to its complex red fruit. The subtle intricacies of the palate are woven over an intense and satisfying body that develops new flavours of herbs and earth all the way into the very long finish.

The relatively shallow, well drained soils of the 'Les Champs Traversins' climat at the top of the Echezeaux slope give refinement and elegance to this powerful grand cru Burgundy.

Firm, structuring tannins and good acidity make this a wine to drink in its maturity. After a few years, its intense cherry and raspberry fruit take on complementary elements of earth, undergrowth and hints of the florist's—maybe even a little honey—and call for relatively full-flavoured dishes such as roast lamb or game, or maybe a richly creamy, mushroomy soft cheese.

Delicate and complex wine that blends typical red fruit character with floral notes, and takes on layers of darker, woodland hints as it ages.

Frédéric Roblot represents the fourth generation to work the family vines, which now extend to more than eight hectares.

Finesse and power are hand in hand in this magnificent Pommard from the premier cru section of the La Chanière vineyard, north-west of the village.

Intense deep red colour typical of the appellation is matched by profound aromas of dark fruits and cedar. The spice and fruit continue in the mouth, where pure, assertive flavours of brambles and berries are contained by elegant tannins before a long, polished finish.

This is a wine that will continue to impress as it evolves for six to eight years from the vintage—perhaps even longer.
