1998 Chauvenet-Chopin Nuits-St. Georges Premier Cru Arillas Burgundy France
Nuits-St. Georges has no grand crus but it does have an impressive list of 36 premier cru vineyards. In the northern section of the appellation is Argillas, a site with a high percentage of gravel and pebbles in the soil, resulting in rich, full, and sturdy wines. Hubert Chauvenet is a young winemaker on the rise and we only wish we had more of his wines to sell. Imported by Robert Kacher Selections.
Price: $58,00

1998 Chauvenet-Chopin Nuits-St. Georges Premier Cru Murgers Burgundy France
If the village of Nuits-St. Georges were to own its own grand cru sites, Murgers certainly would be one of them. As one of the top vineyards in Nuits-St. Georges, Murgers is close to the Vosne-Romanee border and typically displays both elegance and a stony, meaty richness. The young Hubert Chauvenet has quickly captured the attention of wine critics and consumers alike with his clean, modern winemaking approach, while maintaining respect for the vineyard terroir. Imported by Robert Kacher Selections.

1998 Chauvenet-Chopin Nuits-St. Georges Vieilles Vignes Burgundy France
Hubert Chauvenet has learned how to make wine from two masters -- his father and his father-in-law, Daniel Chopin -- who have between them 100 years of winemaking experience. This Nuits-St. Georges comes from a village parcel named Charmottes that was planted in the 1920s. The wine's old-vine character is evident in its intense, concentrated flavor and rich body. Resist drinking it all now and cellar it for some 5-6 years. Imported by Robert Kacher Selections.
Price: $49,95

1998 Claude Dugat Gevrey Chambertin Burgundy France
If a definition of a noble wine is one that tastes great when young and ages well, then Claude Dugat’s Burgundies are crowned in gold. This 1998 Gevrey-Chambertin is deep ruby in color and loaded with fragrant, ripe red and black berry fruits. One-third of the blend comes from 70-year-old vines. This one will be splendid for drinking through 2008. Imported by Robert Kacher Selections.

1998 Claude Dugat Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Lavaux St. Jacques Burgundy France
Claude Dugat was able to fashion beautiful, succulent Pinot Noirs in 1998 with yields averaging less than two tons per acre (that's not a lot of winegrapes). This Lavaux St. Jacques is incredibly rich and powerful with great structure, wild berry fruit, cocoa, and spicy oak flavors that will be best from 2002-2010. Availability is extremely limited. Imported by Robert Kacher Selections.
