"Clos Margot" is always one of our favorite selections from Dubois, and conveniently enough it is also always a stunning deal for Burgundian Pinot Noir. Pure red berries mix with cinnamon and licorice on the lively nose. The mouth is juicy and well balanced, with a good mix of cherry and pomegranate fruit underlined with some earthy notes and spice.

Dubois Beaune 1er Cru Bressandes 2010
France
/
Côte de Beaune-Burgundy
"Bressandes" is always a more concentrated premier cru, with the vineyard’s chalky brown and sandy soils giving the wine a richly textured feel on the palate. Salty-sweet notes of plum sauce and bright cherries show on the nose. Flavors are complex and juicy, with layers of red plums, red berries and licorice.

Dubois Ladoix La Combe Cuvee Unique 2010
France
/
Côte de Beaune-Burgundy
Red and black cherries explode on the nose, with good mineral notes and suggestions of warm earth. Lacy and pure, with more cherries and black raspberries on the mouth; the vintage comes through loud and clear here with a wonderful fresh, almost crunchy, sensation of fresh summer fruits and spices.

Dubois Savigny-les-Beaune Les Picotins 2010
France
/
Côte de Beaune-Burgundy
This peerless village vineyard delivers a broader, juicier Pinot with plenty of stony definition in its aroma. Some of Jean-Luc’s oldest vines—many over 75 years old—make up the soul of this vineyard. Earthy, rich aromas of autumn leaves and mushrooms mix with fresh red berries; the mouth is ripe and precise, with berries and baking spices.

Dubois Beaune 1er Cru Bressandes 2009
France
/
Côte de Beaune-Burgundy
Of our two premier cru selections from Dubois, "Bressandes" is the more concentrated, with its chalky brown, sandy soils giving Pinot Noir more texture in the mouth. Complex, juicy layers of plums and smoked beef on the mouth; there's lots of spice and endlessly silky Pinot purity. A gorgeous wine and one that will reward well in the cellar, too.

A new selection and irresistible from the first sip. Red and black cherries explode on the nose, with good mineral notes and suggestions of warm earth.
