Jancis Robinson (18)
Cask sample. Mid-dark ruby. Sweet, red fruits (red cherry, laced with redcurrants and red-fruit coulis) this is glamorous, oozing refined, elegant luxury. There is fine, high-strung acidity which belies its firm, almost four-square structure. Very long, very fine, very nascent保税价格￥ 24,730.00 -
Vinous (96-98)
The 2021 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru is so much more expressive on the nose compared to the Chambertin (which is a cooler terroir due to the clay, its location next to the combe and adjacent to the frost). Shimmering red fruit, crushed stone, orange pith and pressed iris petals make up the bouquet. You could lose yourself in these aromas. The palate is beautifully balanced with fine-boned tannins. This is tensile, mineral-driven, nicely poised and exuberant, with a sensual and pixelated finish. This just drives home its class. Brilliant.保税价格￥ 65,050.00 -

A discreet application of wood frames pure aromas of red cherries, just turned earth and a floral top note. The supple but racy middleweight flavors aren't quite as concentrated but they're finer with retaining good power on the sour cherry-inflected finale that delivers excellent length. Lovely and a wine that should also repay mid to longer-term keeping.保税价格￥ 7,030.00 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)
Fine mid purple colour. Already the oak (80% new wood) adds an extra level of intensity but clearly there is a wealth of fruit too. A burst of divine sweet fruit greets the back of the palate, long and lovely. Drink from 2028-2036.保税价格￥ 10,475.00 -
Vinous (91-93)
The 2021 Ruchottes-Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes Grand Cru is much more introspective on the nose compared to the Clos de la Roche or Mazy, displaying dark berry fruit, loam and blackcurrant pastilles. Maybe not quite the mineralité of previous vintages? The palate is medium-bodied with orange rind and allspice on the entry. Showing fine weight, there's a little sinew within this cuvée and a tobacco-tinged finish. Quite a "serious" 2021 from Rousseau - I am fascinated to see how this will show once in bottle.保税价格￥ 9,395.00 -

Vinous (94-96)
The 2021 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru contains around two-thirds whole bunches. The Ruchottes-Chambertin immediately puts the Charmes-Chambertin in its place with more fruit intensity; the limestone terroir percolates through with aplomb. The palate displays exquisite balance and transparency, linear at first and then fanning out towards the finish whilst upholding its mineral line. Hardcore...in a good way.保税价格￥ 40,685.00 -

Though the 2021 Vosne-Romanée Cros Parantoux 1er Cru was racked mid-July, this still has quite a lot of reduction on the nose that renders it difficult to read. The palate is velvety smooth, fine acidity, decent concentration with layers of dark berry fruit, quite candied with a touch of dark chocolate towards the finish. This is very fine.保税价格￥ 18,850.00 -
Burghound (94-97)
Don't Miss! A wonderfully spicy nose combines notes of exotic tea and wood with a plethora of floral elements and white peach scents. There is even better volume as well as size, weight and density to the muscular and super-compact big-bodied flavors that display huge length on the borderline tannic finish. While most competent examples of Montrachet clearly need extended cellaring but this is very definitely a 'buy and forget you own it' wine that should be stunningly good in time.保税价格￥ 11,930.00 -
Vinous (93-95)
The 2021 Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru, represented by five barrels this year, has a refined and focused bouquet, just a subtle reduction at play here. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, harmonious with a gorgeous smooth texture, gently unfurling with a tender yet concentrated finish. Wonderful.保税价格￥ 4,290.00 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)
Light to medium red, less nose than for the Echezeaux, but at least as much fruit on the palate with both more tannins and acidity. This may yet put on more weight in the rest of its elevage. More energy at the back. Drink from 2027-2033.保税价格￥ 5,220.00 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)
Not deeper in colour, perhaps just a touch brighter even than the village Vosne. An even finer detail, with more precision, still just a note too much of new oak. Broader shoulders, more structure behind, which tames the fruit and stops it getting soupy. An exceptional intensity of liquid raspberry with great persistence. Drink from 2027-2033.保税价格￥ 8,845.00 -
The Holyrood Distillery is the first malt distillery to open in Edinburgh in nearly 100 years and its founding comes amidst a truly exciting time for the whisky industry in Scotland. With an innovative and ambitious spirit sweeping the country buttressed by steadily growing global demand for the world’s most famous distillate, Scotch whisky has been reinvigorated by new start-ups and micro distillers placing the ancestral homeland of whisky back at the forefront of this global industry.
Founded by Canadians Rob & Kelly Carpenter and Scot David Robertson, it is in many ways remarkable that Holyrood is the first malt distillery for so long to make a home in Edinburgh (Glenkinchie is well out of town in Pencaitland and North British is single grain only). The city has a long and proud history of brewing and distilling (legal and otherwise) and the city’s natural underground water supply is known through history as “the Charmed Circle” for its purity and abundance.
The focus in this casks is the barley variety; distilled from a mash bill of 100% pure Golden Promise barley - the same type used in the distillation of The Macallan and Glengoyne single malts, and filled them into 1st Fill Oloroso Sherry hogsheads (in which Golden Promise has shown excellent success at both the aforementioned distilleries) of the highest possible quality.
Filled in April of this year, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to follow the development of a new distillery with one of their earliest distillations. Imagine having a cask of 2001 Port Charlotte bought for under £17 IB per bottle when casks now go for £60,000-plus! The one difference being that Port Charlotte is just a sub-brand from the Bruichladdich distillery which had been running for many years already; here we have a new distillery entirely founded with a commitment to making the best possible whisky in the heart of Scotland’s capital.
