Côte De Nuits-Villages, Domaine Jean Tardy et Fils, (Magnum) 2021
Blink and you’d literally miss Domaine Jean Tardy, an envelope-sized sign by a driveway off the RN74 just outside Vosne Romanée the only indication that you are in the right place. Unprepossessing as this domaine looks, the wines continue to show plenty of personality and Guillaume does a particularly impressive line in vieilles vignes lieu dits (old vine, single vineyards), which allow him to “ avoid making a bad marriage between the wrong parcels ”. The results are always seductive and digestible and compete with premier crus for quality and complexity. Guillaume's Côte de Nuits-Villages 2021 is designed for relatively early consumption but has the potential to develop further complexity with a few years of aging. Proper cellaring will enhance its evolution and longevity.
Volnay Premier Cru 'Les Brouillards', Domaine de Montille 2023
The 2023 vintage reflects a year of moderate warmth with consistent sunshine, leading to steady, well-paced ripening. Although temperatures weren’t extreme, the shift to warmer nights and milder days contributed to extended growing periods. This translated into wines that are strikingly fresh, with lower alcohol levels, vivid acidity, and vibrant character—brighter and more approachable compared to recent years. Both red and white wines achieved impressive yields, the largest ever recorded for the estate, with terroir expression and balance shining through. For reds, comparisons to the 2017 vintage are apt, showcasing elegance and precision. The domaine features as one of the Top 10 Côte de Beaune Red Wine, and White Wine Producers in Tim Atkin's Burgundy 2023 Special Report.
