Gracious and satisfying, this comes from Jadot's holdings in Bouzeron, the only AOC in Burgundy dedicated solely to the oft-forgotten aligote. Its supple texture will get along well with crispy roast chicken and root vegetables, the wine is open and approachable in its balance of richness and delicacy.

Ethereal rose scents open into substantially darker cherry flavors that integrate into the mineral notes with air, adding a sweet fruit edge to the gracious tannins. Enticing and complex.

Tempranillo makes up only ten percent of this blend with cabernet and carmenere, syrah another 30, but together they point it in a Mediterranean direction. The wine's fragrant red fruit and herbal scents turn Colchagua's warmth towards freshness.

Toasty oak on the nose of this wine is smoky and aromatic, lending richness to the cherry notions. The palate comes in with freshness and red, ripe cherry fruit that has an energy all of its own. Flowing with juiciness, the palate holds everything in a fine web of tannin. The finish is bright and resonant.

Ripe, red-cherry notes combine seamlessly with subtle oak toast on the nose of this wine, while an overtone of Morello hovers. That Morello gets full rein on the juicy, bright palate, where its purity becomes apparent. Fine-boned tannins lend structure and are a little drying. The fresh finish is mouthwatering, appetizing and balanced.

— Anne Krebiehl

This wine opens with a subtle blend of black and Morello cherry on the nose, surrounded by slight smokiness. Ripeness is evident in the black cherry note and also manifests itself on the juicy but firm palate. A hint of chocolate and an edge of tar back the dark intensity of the fruit that is bedded in dense, ripe tannins. It's an elegant, full-bodied wine with gorgeous aroma and a promising future.

A distinct whiff of Amarena fleets across this wine's nose before senses fill with the ripeness of black cherry. Cherry richness, sometimes with an overtone of chocolate, fills the generous but defined palate where velvety tannins are firm underneath their supple surface. They still crackle but reveal ample freshness and verve on the rich, muscular and toned body. Aromatic tenderness returns on the finish.

— Anne Krebiehl

A rounded note of vanilla surrounds hints of red cherry on the nose of this wine, while overtones of nutmeg shimmer. The palate also displays this creamy, rich seam of vanilla and baking spice, but it serves as a backdrop for the red-cherry fruit. Freshness frames it all while fine tannins brush gently.

Stephanie Jacobs, who was promoted to winemaker in 2017, found a way to charm the fierce Howell Mountain tannins of this wine into a luscious texture that's completely enveloping. Along with the dark-plum flavors, there's a superripe note of yellow apricot and an earthy gingerroot spice to the acidity. Remarkably accessible for a Howell Mountain cabernet.
