Chanson Père & fils Viré-Clessé Bastion de l’Oratoire 2014 

Lightly colored. Nose of lemon, pears to which salty notes and a green note is added and it brings up some freshness. Round on the palate with buttery and light oak notes, but nothing to overpower the acidity or the freshness of this wine. Then followed flavors of lemon and lime that ended up in a medium long finish that had volume to it. This is a quite and classical Burgundy Chardonnay offered at a good price. Very good (89)

Made of chardonnay and chardonnay muscaté. Aged in oak barrels. Alcohol level of 13%

Available in SAQ stores for 26,45$ (Code SAQ : 11890811)

Lighlty colored. Fine and subtle nose of lemon, pear and salty notes. Having the same low profile on the palate at first, air did helped the wine. The finish offered a good flavor concentration followed by a good acidity level. Flavors of lemon, pear, green apples and salty notes again. Good+ (88)

Light ruby-orange color. Nose of spicy red berries, earth and blood orange. Real red berry juice on the palate with black pepper notes, this wine is what we should aim at while drinking this Burgundy range wines; fruit, pinot noir character and drinkability. Don’t let yourself be fooled by this wine simplicity, but enjoy it for what it is which is exactly what I did! Very good (89)

Bright ruby color. Nose of flowers, red berries with some spices and earth notes with an incredible freshness. On the palate, it’s as pure, festive and enjoyable as pinot can often be. Fruit flavors leads the way as it might not seems that complex at this stage, but it’s really tasty, intense with bursting flavors. Astounding accessibility with a high level of enjoyment, a real treat. Excellent (91) 

Made of  pinot noir grown in biodynamic farming and from vines located near the Corton Grand Cru. Aged in oak barrels. Alcohol level of 12,5%

Beautiful golden color. Complex nose of citrus fruits, ripe fruits, flowers, salty notes and fine oak aromas. Followed flavors of fresh pineapple, citrus fruit and minerality shows again, but what impresses me the most is the texture of the wine. There is a round and fat mouthfeel, but finesse, there is acidity, but it doesn’t hide the richness of it while being remarkably balanced. Excellent+ (92) 

Made of Chardonnay from 40+ years old vines. Aged in oak barrels with 20% being new. Alcohol level of 13,5%

Marchand-Tawse Marsannay 2012

This wine comes from the negoce activity of Pascal Marchand (Domaine Comte Armand et Domaine de la Vougeraie) and the Ontario native Moray Tawse. Medium dark ruby color with a pink rim. Nose of red berries, spices, earth, oak and some green notes. Powerful and slightly rustic on the palate, not very deep, it seems more approchable on the nose than on the palate at first. It have though fruit, spices, but the oak shows quite a lot. Long and a touch warm finish. I felt that this wine is pretty young as the glass I had on the second day was better and the last one, four days after having opened the bottle was great! Very good (89)

Made of Pinot Noir. Aged in oak barrels, 20% being new. Alcohol level of 13%

Available in SAQ stores for 38,25$ (Code SAQ : 12857159)

Ruby color. Fresh nose with fiels straberries, herbs and strawberry tips. Bright and mouth watering acidity on the palatewith flavors of red fruits, earth and spices. Became even better at the table and would be an excellent choice to pair with heavier dishes as its acidity would bring freshness to the plate, making the wine shine even more. Still pretty young, will be better after 2-3 years of cellaring. Good+ (88)

Made from 50 years old vines planted in Meursault.  Aged in oak barrels with 10% new oak and less than 5 years old barrels. Alcohol level of 12,5%

Almost gone from the shelves, was sold for 32,00$ in SAQ stores (Code SAQ : 12440231)

Color between garnet and ruby, but clearly looks older than the wine really is. At bottle opening, I had aromas of fur, cherries in alcohol and earth. Air did brought fruit and some green notes. Despite being rustic on the palate, Pinot Noir did show itself with red berries, fine spices and earth. Good acidity level, quite long with some heat on the finish and drinks well now. Ambiguous result (was hoping for more from this wine), I did enjoyed it and the bottle was emptied easily. Very good+ (90)

Made of Pinot Noir. Aged in oak barrels with 10 to 20% new ones. Alcohol level of 13%
