Starting out with small family holdings David, together with his business partner Francois Feuillet, have added to their portfolio of wines through the purchase of some exceptional old Grand cru vineyards throughout Gevrey Chambertin and Morey St Denis.

Other Reviews....
There is a whiff of herbal tea sitting atop the pure essence of pomegranate, red cherry and earth along with a hint of the sauvage. The lighter weight flavors possess a beguiling sense of verve that carries over to the youthfully austere and mildly rustic finale. This too could use a bit more depth but it's undeniably pretty.

Allen Meadows - Burghound

Barrel sample. Two ha in La Charmotte, Saints-Julien and Les Plateaux (behind Gouge).
Lightish cherry red. Fragrant with red fruit, delicate but expressive. Crushed rocks. Dry finesse and a sweetness on the finish. Light and elegant.
