Wine
Elodie Roy 2020 Maranges Le Goty
Perfumed and floral, with darker cherry fruit and a discreet oak note. The palate has real flavour authority, combining freshness and concentration with fine energy and a graceful, sculpted shape. Tannins are present but smooth-grained, carrying the wine to a savoury, gently dry finish with excellent focus and length.
Remoissenet 2019 Beaune Premier Cru Les Marconnets
Black and red cherry mingle with red plum, earth and a restrained savoury note. The palate is layered and well structured, with firm, slightly meaty tannins surrounding a clear fruit core. Freshness keeps the wine composed through a long, grounded finish. Decant briefly and pair with duck, roast lamb or mushroom dishes.
Fauvin 2019 Chenas Cuvee Selene Magnum
Redcurrant, vanilla and peony meet in an intense, silky red with enough structure to carry its generous fruit. Partial ageing in new oak brings polish and complexity without obscuring the freshness of Gamay. Drink now or hold for several years, and serve with pigeon, feathered game, roast duck, mushroom dishes or a red-fruit tart for a more unexpected pairing.
Melinon 2017 Morgon
A vibrant Morgon with ripe red cherry, blackberry and violet on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied and smooth, balancing juicy red fruit with soft tannins, bright acidity and subtle earthy, mineral undertones. Fresh and structured through the finish, it is versatile at the table and works well with charcuterie, roast poultry, mushrooms or grilled pork.
Robert Perroud 2020 Pollen Brouilly
Blackberry and spice lead a rich yet composed red, with the structure already well integrated into its dark fruit. The palate is generous but not heavy, shaped by fresh acidity and a savoury mineral line that carries through the finish. Serve slightly cool with roast chicken, pork tenderloin, grilled sausages, charcuterie, lentil dishes, mushrooms or hard cheese.
Boudier 2018 Savigny-Les-Beaunes
Medium ruby in colour, with delicate floral aromas opening into rose petal, red cherry, raspberry and soft spice. The palate is light on its feet, shaped by fresh acidity and fine tannins rather than weight. A poised, fragrant Pinot Noir with a clean, savoury finish and understated Burgundian character.
Famille Dutraive 2021 Fleurie Les Déduits
Initially restrained on the nose, it opens with a broad aromatic shape and quietly deep fruit. The palate is lively and energetic, with a fine vibration of freshness carrying the flavour through a clean, poised finish. Elegant rather than showy, it suits roast chicken, charcuterie or mushroom dishes.
Jadot 2016 Clos St Denis Gc
Pure and finely focused, with smoke-tinged blackberry, raspberry and a growing mineral note. The palate is medium-bodied and precise, its dusky red fruit drawn across delicate, filigree tannins. Graphite and quiet savoury detail bring definition to the finish, giving this refined red a graceful balance of depth, freshness and poise.
Jean-Claude Lapalu 2022 Brouilly La Croix des Rameaux
Dark fruit sits behind a clear, mouth-filling palate, with fine-grained tannin giving the wine an architectural sense of shape. The texture is firm but never coarse, and a slow, mouth-watering finish brings freshness to the structure. Distinctive and composed, it suits roast chicken, charcuterie or grilled mushrooms.
Roches Bleues 2019 Cote Brouilly Foudre
On the nose you'll find delightful aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherry, raspberry, and strawberry, characteristic of Gamay, the grape variety used in Beaujolais wines. Light floral notes of violet and iris add complexity to the aromatic profile. Subtle hints of spice, such as white pepper or clove, may also be present, contributing to the wine's aromatic allure. The palate is marked by a juicy and lively acidity that gives the wine its refreshing quality. Expect a burst of red fruit flavors, with ripe cherry and raspberry dominating the forefront.
Remoissenet Pere et Fils 1959 Richebourg Grand Cru
Still remarkably vital for its age, with dried fruit, hay, flowers and savoury spice unfolding around a distinctly saline, sea-brine note. The palate can show firm, forward tannins and surprising lift, though bottle condition matters: some examples remain energetic and youthful, while others fade in the glass. Stand upright, open carefully and follow closely after pouring.
Remoissenet Pere et Fils 1985 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru
Mature red cherry and floral notes meet mushroom, wet leaves, earth and a quiet umami edge. The palate retains a rich core of fruit, with fine acidity and softened structure giving it more life than the evolved nose suggests. Savoury woodland detail carries the finish. Bottle variation is pronounced at this age, so stand upright and decant gently only as needed.
Remoissenet Pere et Fils 1989 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru
Honeyed and marmalade-like at first, with apricot, stewed red fruit and herbal tea developing into dried black fruit, fallen leaves, potting soil and a faint tobacco note. The palate is medium-bodied and elegant, with softened tannins, gentle acidity and exceptional length. Give it time in the glass for initial muskiness to lift, then serve with duck or earthy mushroom dishes.
Remoissenet Pere et Fils 1969 Pommard
Dried cherry and darker fruit meet mushroom, spice, iron and a quiet mineral note on the nose. Soft and smooth on the palate, the wine carries integrated acidity, faint dusty tannins and enough remaining fruit to feel balanced rather than fragile. The finish is savoury and gently spicy. Stand the bottle upright before service and decant carefully, stopping if sediment begins to move.
Jean Foillard 2023 Morgon Côte du Py
Dried cherry and prune lead a soft, unctuous palate, with concentrated fruit carried by a supple texture. There is seriousness beneath the generosity, but the wine remains composed and flowing rather than dense. Its pure, generous shape makes it a natural partner for charcuterie, roast chicken or goat cheese, while the fruit remains clear enough to enjoy on its own.
Remoissenet Pere & Fils 1989 Chambolle-Musigny 12 L
Cherry, iron and dried herbs lead into savoury beef-broth notes. The palate remains richly textured and impressively long, with bright acidity carrying the mature fruit and keeping the finish energetic. The profile is evolved but still clear and composed. Bottle variation is expected at this age; stand upright before opening and decant gently around any sediment.
Roches Bleues 2016 Des Lyz Cote Brouilly
A mature Gamay with blackberry, plum and black cherry, followed by cedar, tobacco and a light forest-floor note. Gentle oak spice adds depth without obscuring the fruit, while fresh acidity keeps the palate lively. Savoury and settled on the finish, it is a thoughtful match for roast poultry, mushrooms, pork or a simple plate of charcuterie.
Coquard 2019 Fleurie
An elegant cru Beaujolais with violet, peony, ripe strawberry and raspberry, accented by white pepper and cinnamon. The palate is light-bodied and silky, with bright cherry and cranberry held in balance by refreshing acidity and soft tannins. Floral detail returns on the smooth, lingering finish, making it a versatile partner for charcuterie, roast poultry, grilled pork or mushrooms.
Jane Eyre 2020 Savigny-les-Beaune 1er Cru Aux Vergelesses
Bright ruby in colour, opening with pure violet, fresh red cherry and a quiet touch of forest floor. The palate is graceful and mid-weight, with supple tannins, lively tension and subtle whole-bunch spice. Silky texture and poised acidity keep the fruit precise before a clean, persistent finish of violet and fine mineral detail.
Remoissenet 2016 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru
Black cherry and raspberry are set against earth, spice and a measured oak note. Dense and powerful, the palate has notable texture and resonance, yet the fruit remains pure and clearly defined. Firm tannins carry the wine through a long, savoury finish. Give it generous air and serve with roast duck or beef.
