Hall Wines The Kathryn Hall Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 96% Cabernet, 4% Merlot.
The 2017 Kathryn Hall is deep, dark ruby in color and elegantly balanced with layered aromas of concentrated blackberry, freshly turned earth, and a hint of warm, spicy oak. The palate is fruit-forward with underlying notes of rich cocoa and leather. Layers of black fruit, nutmeg, cassis and brooding earthy notes are abundant. Supple, seamless tannin abounds, and the wine finishes with an incredible dark fruit feed-back that lasts several minutes.
Review:
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Kathryn Hall is a blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot, brought up mostly in new barrels. It’s a killer bottle of wine offering lots of ripe black fruits intermixed with savory herbs, melted chocolate, and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it shows the lush, round, velvety style of the 2019 vintage and is already impossible to resist. It’s going to evolve for 15+ years if well stored.

Boussey Volnay Premier Cru Taillepieds is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
Les Taillepieds is one of Volnay's most admired Premier Cru climats, its name a nod to the steep, stony slope that once cut the feet of those who worked it. Domaine Boussey, a five-generation family estate in neighboring Monthelie, farms a small south-facing parcel here on clay and limestone from vines that average fifty years of age, roughly a hundred cases in all.
Fermented in stainless steel and aged a year in French oak with a quarter new, it shows the graceful side of the Cote de Beaune: a ruby-garnet color, a perfumed lift of red and black fruit, fig and violet, and the finesse, length and round, juicy tannins that make Volnay the most elegant of red Burgundies.
