Recent Press Reviews & Points

12 February 2018

We've recently had some great reviews and points from the press for Louis Latour, Vidal-Fleury, McHenry Hohnen, Wakefield and Viu Manent. 

 

Decanter “Vintage Preview: Burgundy 2016” February 2018

Louis Latour Chateau Corton Grancey Grand Cru 2016 – 93 points

“The pinnacle of Latour’s Corton range this year. Black fruit, forest floor, orange zest and cedary new oak. Chalky tannins are underpinned by fresh, tense acidity, the fruit revealing excellent concentration and depth.’’

 

Louis Latour Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru 2016 – 92 points

“Good cut and precision in this tricky vintage: confit citrus, lime, white flowers and brioche. Glossy, textural attack underpinned by a taut, vibrant core of acidity and stony minerality. This shows promise.’’

 

Decanter “Northern Rhône 2015” February 2018

Vidal-Fleury Côte-Rôtie La Chatillonne 2015 – 91 points, highly recommended

“Impressive from every angle, there is oak, flowers and berries all in evidence here. Jasmine notes come through from the Viognier and the acidity is naturally balancing the whole package.’’
