2017 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru
SGD $2,490 ($2,714.10 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 3 cases available
SGD $1,780 ($1,940.20 inc GST) per Mag (x1.5L OWC) – 1 Mag available

“An openly exotic nose offers glimpses of black cherry liqueur, ginger, Asian-style tea, sandalwood and orange peel along with plenty of floral elements. The tighter and much more mineral-driven big-bodied flavors also possess evident muscle on the powerful and dense yet beautifully refined finish that goes on and on. This is also a bit less structured though with that said, this is going to need at least 15 years to reach its apogee. In sum, this is relatively refined though still a very serious wine.”
2017 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Bonnes Mares Grand Cru
SGD $2,160 ($2,354.40 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 2 cases available
SGD $1,520 ($1,656.80 inc GST) per Mag (x1.5L OWC) – 1 Mag available
93 Points Allen Meadows
“A very ripe yet agreeably fresh nose reflects notes of blue berry, plum liqueur and violet that are cut with spice, menthol and earth hints. The exceptionally rich and impressively full-bodied flavors evidence a taut muscularity, all wrapped in an overtly powerful and lingering finish that is naturally sweet. As one would reasonably expect this is quite firm; indeed it’s borderline rustic.”
2017 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny
SGD $985 ($1,073.65 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 2 cases available
90 Points Neal Martin
“The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a mixture of red and black fruit, plus hints of damp woodland and truffle lingering on the sidelines. The palate is well balanced with red currant and cranberry fruit on the entry, a fine bead of acidity and touches of Chinese five-spice and sage toward the finish. Fine.”
2017 Domaine Jean et J L Trapet Chambertin Grand Cru
SGD $3,100 ($3,379 inc GST) per case (x6 OC) – 1 case available
95 Points Neal Martin
“The 2017 Chambertin Grand Cru has an open, expressive, beautifully defined bouquet of brambly red fruit, rose petal and subtle sous-bois scents; a star anise/menthol scent emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins, dense and sappy. The finish does not convey the terroir as well as others in this flight, though it meliorates in the glass and develops more intellect with aeration.”
2017 Domaine Jean et J L Trapet Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Prieur
SGD $1,090 ($1,188.10 inc GST) per case (x6 OC) – 1 case available
90 Points Neal Martin
“The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur 1er Cru has an open, leafy bouquet, a little stemmy but charming, with wilted rose petal scents. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, and fresh though a bit rustic. Grippy toward the finish, displaying an attractive spiciness. Rough around the edges, relatively evolved, but still pleasing.”
2017 Domaine Jean et J L Trapet Gevrey-Chambertin Ostrea
SGD $1,500 ($1,635 inc GST) per case (x12 OC) – 3 cases available
SGD $750 ($817.50 inc GST) per case (3×1.5L OC) – 1 Mag Case available
89 Points Allen Meadows – ‘Outstanding’
“There is a whiff of herbal tea to the attractively spicy and notably floral aromas of mostly cool red berry and soft earth. I like the sense of vibrancy to the delicious and solidly well-detailed middle weight flavors that offer reasonably good depth with excellent length. Note that this should develop better complexity with age and overall, it’s a fine villages level wine.”
2017 Domaine Jean et J L Trapet Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Petite Chapelle
SGD $1,100 ($1,199 inc GST) per case (x6 OC) – 1 case available
91 Points Allen Meadows – ‘Outstanding’
“Here too the wood isn’t subtle though it’s by no means intrusive, just noticeable, on the fresh and pretty blend of red currant, plum, violet and softly spiced aromas where a hint of herbal tea lurks in the background. There is slightly better richness and definitely more salinity to the medium-bodied flavors that offer a step up in depth and persistence on the more well-balanced finale. This is lovely stuff and a wine that could be enjoyed young or with up to a decade of aging.”
2017 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée-Conti Grand Cru
SGD $73,850 ($80,496.50 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 1 case available
SGD $55,590 ($60,593.10 inc GST) per Mag (x1.5L OWC) – 1 Mag available
98 Points William Kelley
“Wafting from the glass with a deep and complex bouquet of dark wild berries, cassis, wilted rose petals, blood orange, exotic spices, licorice and coniferous forest floor, the 2017 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru is full-bodied, satiny textured and multidimensional. It’s just as powerful as this year’s La Tâche but even more elegantly framed by filigree structure, concluding with an intensely sapid and penetratingly fragrant finish. Pristinely balanced, this young Romanée-Conti possesses huge reserves for the long haul despite its deceptively supple youthful appeal, and it will reward extended bottle age.”
2017 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti La Tâche Grand Cru
SGD $19,200 ($20,928 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 2 cases available
96 Points Allen Meadows
“Other than perhaps a great Musigny, La Tâche is the most aromatically compelling wine in Burgundy with its perfumed fireworks in a glass with a nose that is ultra-spicy, exuberantly fresh and impressively broad-ranging array of rose petal, exotic and herbal tea, lavender, plum, violet, sandalwood, soy and a whiff of hoisin. There is a beguiling sense of underlying tension to the supple and almost easy-going mid-palate of the deceptively forward medium-bodied flavors that progressively tighten up on the dusty, exceptionally stony and saline if ever-so-mildly warm finish that flashes excellent depth and superb persistence as well as plenty of youthful austerity. This is a La Tâche of contrasts as the mid-palate suggests early accessibility yet the firm core of tannins makes clear that the 2017 LT will require extended keeping if you wish to experience it at its peak.”
2017 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Richebourg Grand Cru
SGD $17,250 ($18,802.50 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 2 cases available
95 Points Allen Meadows
“A discreet application of wood frames the even more complex and spicier nose of relatively high-toned, cool and airy aromas of red berries, violet, rose petal, orange pekoe tea and a hint of leather. The sleek, intense and sophisticated middle weight plus flavors brim with both minerality and dry extract that buffers the slightly firmer tannic spine shaping the hugely long, powerful and beautifully harmonious finale. It would be fair to observe that this isn’t the most concentrated Richebourg the Domaine has ever produced but it is one that should age effortlessly on its balance. In sum, this is a highly refined and elegant Riche with a positively gorgeous mouthfeel.”
2017 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée-St-Vivant Grand Cru
SGD $13,100 ($14,279 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 2 cases available
98 Points Antonio Galloni
“A total stunner, the 2017 Romanée St. Vivant Grand Cru is the most expressive wine in the lineup today. Rich, creamy and so wonderfully textured, the RSV simply has it all. The tannins are present, but they are also matched by tremendous fruit density and pure power. Floral and savory overtones grace the lifted, saline finish. Leaving price aside, if I could only have one wine in this range, it would unquestionably be the RSV. The 2017 is a total knock-out. That’s all there is to it. This fruit was picked on September 10 and 11.”
2017 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Grands Échézeaux Grand Cru
SGD $11,700 ($12,753 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 1 case available
96 Points Antonio Galloni
“The 2017 Grands-Echézeaux Grand Cru is a pretty big step up in this range, both in terms of depth, power and energy. Here the flavors are dark, while there is quite a bit of tannin lurking beneath. Black cherry, graphite, leather, smoke, spice and menthol infuse the 2017 with tons of virile, somber character. Readers will have to be very patient. A whole range of sepia-toned aromas and flavors shrouded in tannin add depth to an imposing Grands-Echézeaux built for cellaring. Harvest was on September 12.”
2017 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Corton Grand Cru
SGD $10,925 ($11,908.25 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 1 case available
93 Points Allen Meadows
“A ripe, fresh and layered nose combines notes of plum, spice, earth and plenty of floral influences. There is fine richness to the relatively supple middle weight flavors that possess a velvety mid-palate mouthfeel along with reasonable if not special density, all wrapped in a youthfully austere, balanced and sneaky long finish where a hints of warmth and sweetness eventually emerge. This minerally effort needs to develop better depth but the potential appears to be present for that to occur.”
2017 Domaine de l’Arlot Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Forêts St Georges
SGD $1,060 ($1,155.40 inc GST) per case (x6 OC) – 2 cases available
93+ Points Neal Martin
“The 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges Clos des Fôrets-Saint-Georges 1er Cru contains a little more amplitude than the 2016, fine mineralité and discrete floral scents, pressed rose petal especially. Good energy and precision. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, fleshy on the entry with a fine bead of acidity, very pure and poised with a discrete black pepper edge mixed with seaweed towards the finish. This is an excellent wine that may improve further with bottle age.”
2017 Domaine de l’Arlot Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos de l’Arlot
SGD $1,100 ($1,199 inc GST) per case (x6 OC) – 1 case available
93 Points William Kelley
“The 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos de l’Arlot is showing beautifully in bottle, wafting from the glass with aromas of raspberries, redcurrant, violets and spices that are delicately framed by a discrete touch of new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, exquisitely satiny and enveloping, with racy acids, melting tannins and impressive intensity and persistence. In the context of the vintage, this is both impressively concentrated and notably vibrant, though these qualities are rendered in a supremely elegant format.”
2017 Domaine Rossignol-Trapet Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Petite Chapelle
SGD $1,650 ($1,798.50 inc GST) per case (x12 OC) – 1 case available
92 Points Neal Martin
“The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Petite Chapelle 1er Cru feels a little smudged on the nose at first, though there is decent fruit intensity, with crushed strawberry and a light ferrous element. The palate is fleshy on the entry, very well balanced, smooth and quite sensual. This is quite Rousseau-like in style, displaying admirable length and a harmonious finish. Excellent.”
2017 Domaine Bonneau du Martray Corton Grand Cru
SGD $1,290 ($1,406.10 inc GST) per case (x3 OWC) – 1 case available
93 Points Allen Meadows
“Bright ruby. The softly spicy nose combines notes of black raspberry, red cherry, herbal tea and ample earth influences. Like the 2018 version, there is a relatively refined mouthfeel to the focused and powerful medium-bodied flavors that terminate in a racy bitter cherry pit-inflected finale. This fine effort is firm yet elegant and a wine that should also drink well after only 6 or so years of age.”
