Every Sunday at 7:30 a.m. I'm going deep into my wine cellar to pull out the last of some very great bottles. I promise rare wines for the cellar- builder in very limited quantities, gems of astonishing quality carrying highly pedigreed labels that will tempt the most temperate among us.

So, don't hit the snooze! These wines will be gone, gone, gone, quickly.

Please note: these wines have been in temperature-control since they arrived from France.

Rated 90" Steven Tanzer IWR "Good deep red. Subtly complex aromas of dark fruits, spices, licorice, leather, mint and bitter chocolate. Altogether sweeter and lusher than the Clos du Roi, conveying an impression of cleaner fruit and greater flavor intensity. Spreads out nicely on the back end, finishing with riper tannins, more length and lingering notes of licorice and mint."

Robert Parker: : "Henri Boillot decided a few years ago that he wanted to dedicate himself to the production of fine wines. Since then he has gone from strength to strength, sparing no expense, obsessing over every detail, fashioning magnificent wines...Thanks to the superhuman efforts of Henri Boillot, Domaine Jean Boillot should now be counted among the finest producers in the Cote de Beaune for both reds and whites."

Henri works some of the finest terroir in Burgundy. His Volnay Les Chevrets is an exquisite limestone and clay vineyard in the Cotes de Beaune. Henri owns about 5 acres of it. The age of the vines averages 41 years. The yields are an astounding 22 hectoliters per hectare. half of what most vineyards yield

Henri's Volnay Les Chevrets is 100% de-stemmed. It is aged in 60% new oak, the rest in the oak of one vintage. Of course, the wines are neither fined nor filtered. Only 600 cases are made.

When you stick your nose into your glass of Chevrets, you will swoon over ripe cherries and cassis and blackberries. In your mouth, the wine will be fat with supporting tannins in perfect harmony with the fruit.

Make sure you take the time to savor it over a particularly good meal. Cynthia Hurley
