THE
BEAUJOLAIS
CEDRIC VINCENT (Pouilly
le Monial)
CŽdric Vincent got hold
of us through Jean-Marc and Anne-Marie Vincent in Santenay. He makes brilliant
Beaujolais. Ripe, sweaty, deep with enough stuffing to help this age for
decadesÉ.or just drink it now, while all that lovely 2005 fruit is so present.

LAURENT GAUTHIER (ChŽnas)
A youngish man of few
words, he fixes you with an unfaltering stare, more curiosity than judgment. He
lets his wines do the talking. His fascinating Cuvee Etalon seems to search
outside the region for its reference points. Thick, chewy, some red fruit confit.
Surprisingly present tannins and yet supple.
