"Serious, dense, savoury wine. For thoughtful ascetics rather than hedonists. Real long-term stuff and so much the better. Pure, dense and deep – smooth textured but one for the long term. Drink 2010-2020" Jancis Robinson 18.5/20
"A spicy and notably ripe dark pinot fruit nose that offers black cherry and a touch of cassis that continues onto the tightly wound, earthy, rich and austere but amply powerful flavors that are impressively backward and dense, particularly for the vintage and this too is going to require the better part of a decade before it really gets rolling. I like the style and the definition, particularly on the superbly long and intense finish. Drink 2014+"Allen Meadows 90-93 points

Always one of Jean Michel's richer 1er Cru Gevrey wines, this is long and powerful in 2010.
"A similar but slightly more deeply pitched and complex nose precedes attractively rich and round flavors that are delicious but don't quite have the same energy or refinement on the suave and mouth coating finish. To be sure, this is balanced and altogether lovely. Sweet Spot Outstanding"Allen Meadows 90-93 points
- Maillard Aloxe-Corton 1991 Product #26603 (In Stock)

A head-scratcher: how in the world could a village-level Cote de Beaune red from an average vintage be anything like this vibrant and delicious? Pascal Maillard's father made this wine, and his style focused on aging potential and power even if it meant his wines were tough sledding young. This must have been a monster when it first went into bottle, but now it's smoothed out and become a lovely bottle of earthy, complex, red Burgundy. While I'm not sure I'd try to hold Pascal's 2009 village Aloxe Corton for 20 years, this beauty shows the magic than only time can deliver. Very limited.
