“A Pinot-dominated cuvee, full-bodied and powerful, hinting at red berry, citrus and honey notes. It starts out elegantly, gaining grip and intensity, with appealing flavors and a persistent finish.&#8221.

“Ripe and rich yet balanced, with lingering flavors of lemon, flowers and chalk.”

“Bernadotte’s well-made 2004 exhibits a deep ruby/plum/purple color as well as elegant cranberry, black cherry, and currant notes, good acidity, and a spicy, fresh, invigorating finish. Not a big wine, it displays a style completely different from the 2003. Drink it during its first decade of life.” —Robert Parker

The fruit for this Bourgogne rouge comes from sites within Chassagne and from Chagny and Remigny, on a mix of of clay and chalk soils, from vines averaging 35 years of age. The grapes are hand picked and fully destemmed before being fermented and aged on lees in a mix of small stainless steel vats and barrel for 12 months. This is a bright, tangy red Burgundy with lovely fruit and plenty of energy. Outstanding quality and value.

Daniel has been kind enough to send Sherry-Lehmann a small allocation to share with our clientele.
Another outstanding selection from Daniel Boulud & Daniel Johnnes.

Enticing red currant and red fruit notes with a little Rhone black pepper in the finish. A lovely blend of 60% grenache and 40% syrah showing wonderful fruit and earth flavors plus the typical spiciness from the syrah.

The 35–60 year-old vines that supply this 90/10 blend of Grenache and Syrah are high in elevation and south-facing, ensuring a decidedly Mediterranean influence — which means more structure and darker flavors (think black currant and really dark cherries) than most Rhônes. Grenache is dominant, but with a concentration level surpassed only by some Châteauneuf-du-Papes. Stunning value from the excellent 2009 vintage.

“Year after year, Lamothe de Haux produces enticing Bordeaux blanc blends….It has become a cult white in New York…[serve] lightly chilled, with a Cobb salad and, as the Bordelais do, with langoustines and smoked salmon.”

A very nice blend of the Bordeaux varietals, semillon, sauvignon blanc and muscadelle, making for an aromatic nose with a crisp fruit-filled taste.

The appellation of Montagny lies south of Beaune in the rolling vales and hills of the southern part of the Cote Chalonnaise. It is a 100% white wine appellation controllee originating solely from Chardonnay.

Louis Latour selects only those wines from grapes with a high natural sugar content which constitutes the most reliable indicator of maturity, and therefore quality. Once purchased, the wine is nurtured by the cellarmen at Maison Louis Latour who carefully rack the young Montagny off its lees just before bottling. This, as for every Latour wine, contributes the guarantee of typicity and quality of Latour Montagny.

The “Our Picks” each month is becoming one of our most popular selections each month and February’s collection will continue this trend.

Beautiful, dark ruby color. The nose develops well in the glass, and it possesses an intense aromatic bouquet, reminiscent of spices, blackcurrant and other red and black berries. A caressing texture and a long flavorful finish. A lovely, elegant wine.
Cloudline is made under the careful eye of consulting winemaker Veronique Drouhin-Boss.

Medium yellow with green hues. Lifted lemon, grapefruit and passionfruit with hints of grassy, dried herb aromas. Considerable fruit weight and intensity combine with a fresh, lively and focused acid giving a full balanced palate with good length.

COLOUR:
Vibrant, deep rich red

BOUQUET:
A nose of ripe cherries, plums, dark chocolate and Christmas cake spice.

PALATE:
A middle palate of vibrant, dark berry fruit is supported by clearly defined yet elegant tannin framework and some balanced acidity to provide structure and length.
A very highly regarded and recognized producer from one of Australia’s top regions for shiraz.
