Duluc de Branaire-Ducru 2018
Duluc de Branaire-Ducru 2018 is the second wine of Château Branaire-Ducru, A cornerstone of Saint-Julien that crafts wines of depth and complexity. It is enjoyable in its youth, offering a well-rounded and accessible expression of Saint-Julien. However, it will continue to develop and integrate over the next several years. Medium to full-bodied with a well-structured profile, the Duluc is ideal together with grilled beef tenderloin, rack of lamb, or aged Cheddar and Gruyère cheese.
Hautes-Côtes De Nuits, Pierre Meurgey 2021
Pierre Meurgey is a fourth generation winemaker now bottling some incredibly wines under his own name and is only now being discovered (his recent 2020s were very well regarded by Jasper Morris). His father Henri was a courtier and oenologue in the Cote d’Or and was indeed very highly respected by all growers - Pierre is also one to watch, with the 2018 Savigny Les Bas Lairds getting a terrific four-star review from Jasper, whilst the Pernand Vergelesses 2019 is 1er Cru is also a stunner.
