Tasting Notes"Impressively youthful saturated dark red color. Deep, brooding aromas of black fruits, violet, licorice and tobacco reminded me of Bordeaux, if not Pauillac. Hugely rich, tactile and mouthfilling, with its fleshy black cherry and violet flavors conveying a strong impression of inky depth without coming across as heavy. A classically dry, medicinal grand cru in a distinctly masculine style, this has the stuffing and structure to last 50 years. Spreads out horizontally on the back end, finishing with building ripe, dusty tannins and palate-staining length. Not the last word in finesse but this is an uncanny powerhouse of a Burgundy. Fans of the style may rate it even higher than I do. (13.2% alcohol; 3.33 pH; 3.6 g/l acidity). Tasted March 2019. 94 points Drink 2019 - 2038" Vinous.com (ST) |

Tasting Notes"A gorgeous, if restrained, nose of subtle spice, red berry liqueur, plum and wet stone aromas combine to serve as a beguiling introduction to the rich, intense, solidly muscular and mouth coating flavors that culminate in a dusty and strikingly harmonious finish of balance and grace. This stylish effort is very classy and should age effortlessly for several decades even though it should offer sensational drinking relatively early on; that said, if you have the patience, hold this beauty for at least 15 years. 93-96 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound |

Tasting Notes"This is consistently one of Jadot's finest wines and 2010 is no different, in fact it would appear to have even greater ultimate potential than the Musigny, which isn't always the case. The spicy, ripe and exceptionally complex nose of airy, pure and cool red currant, plum and stone aromas gracefully merges into the powerful but sophisticated medium-bodied flavors that possess seemingly buckets of dry extract that almost forcefully pushes the very firm tannic spine to the background on the markedly austere, compact and very tight finish. As intense and powerful as this is, the mouth feel is almost lilting and this is a classic example of a wine exhibiting what I call power without weight. In a word, stunning but note well my suggested optimal drinking window as this will not be for the impatient. 96 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound |

Tasting Notes"A perfumed and highly spiced nose of red and blue pinot fruit that is liberally sprinkled with notes of cassis, spice, stone and a touch of wood toast. The rich, cool and intensely mineral-driven flavors possess a seductively suave palate impression before terminating in a superbly complex, balanced and persistent finish. 2010 seems to have been an especially successful vintage for Amoureuses and this is one more corroborating effort that should improve for 15 to 20 years. 92-95 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound |

Tasting NotesEX-DOMAINE------"The barest touch of menthol sits atop cool sauvage-inflected aromas of red berries, humus, earth and a hint of oak. The attractively delineated and refined middle weight flavors exhibit good detail, minerality and verve before culminating in a super-saline finish that is shaped by relatively fine-grained tannins. This is very Clos Prieur in character. Lovely stuff. Drink 2022+. 91 points." Burghound |

Tasting Notes"No whole bunch. Another fine impressive purple bouquet. Rich generous plump fruit on the nose and follows through on the palate wood. Then another sample which blended all four barrels. Similar colour, nose is more floral, fresh raspberry notes too, just a hint of vanillin behind. Lively mouth-filling robust dark red fruit, with just a slight firm patch of wood tannins which extra elevage should sort. Very persistent.

Peppery spice, super fine tannins and a softness to the fruit, so unusual to taste GC wines so open at this stage, really delightful. RKL "Cask sample. Mid cherry red. Smells ripe and sweet and generous in its red fruit. A touch peppery. Gorgeous harmony between ripe, fresh, generous fruit and well-modulated structure.

Tasting NotesFrom vines directly above our heads, growing in a plot in Dominique's back garden, beneath which his newly excavated cellar lies. Broad, earthy and spiced on the nose.

Tasting NotesPowerful and concentrated with lots of black cherry aromas. Very phenolic, intense fruit, juicy, pleasingly rustic and energetic, will require 6-7 years in cellar. RKL "Moderate wood and menthol influences frame the intensely earthy and gamy aromas of both red and dark currant. There is excellent energy to the stony medium weight plus flavors that are at once succulent yet powerful where the latter carries over to the serious, firmly structured and mildly warm finish that goes on and on. This somewhat rustic effort is very Corton in basic character and a wine that's going to require patience. (93-95 points)/2040+" Burghound "Aromas of wild berries, dark chocolate, grilled squab, warm spices and forest floor introduce the 2018 Corton Grand Cru Clos des Cortons Faiveley, a medium to full-bodied, youthfully reserved wine that's deep, lively and concentrated, concluding with a long and beautifully defined finish. This is another terrific rendition of Faiveley's emblematic grand cru in the making. 93-95 points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com |

Tasting NotesFrom a small 1er Cru site which is almost a monopole of Drouhin Laroze (no other growers own enough here to bottle the wine on its own). Located just in front of Mazis-Chambertin. 20% in new oak. Concentrated dark fruits but more elegant than expected in 2018, with very fine tannins giving a complex,creamy textured effect on the palate (some definite similarities with Mazis). RKL "The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Au Closeau 1er Cru has a wonderful bouquet of red currant, cranberry and light sous-bois aromas, all very focused and nicely detailed. The palate is equipped with fine, supple tannins that render this a pliant Gevrey-Chambertin, although there is some new oak on the finish that needs to be subsumed. At 60%, I can see how a little more prudence might have been preferable. Not bad, but I would like to see how this develops and eats up that new wood. 89-91 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesBigger and richer on the nose (than the Vougeot) yet with extraordinary poise and control. Subtle entry but the fruit grows and spreads across the mid-palate as wonderful ripe tannins emerge in support. Dark fruit, mineral and a wonderful texture. Beautiful balancing acidity keeps it so fresh. Very long finish. One of our wines of the vintage. RKL******“The 2018 Chambertin Clos-de-Bèze Grand Cru includes 30% whole-bunch fruit, though this is the one grand cru where you cannot detect the stem addition, just the copious dark cherry, raspberry, cedar and undergrowth aromas that gain intensity in the glass. The palate is supple on the entry, the acidity neatly counterbalancing the intensity of the fruit. This Clos-de-Bèze has real grip and an arching structure on the finish, suggesting that it will be a seriously long-lived wine. Excellent. 95-97 points.” Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesFrom a tiny plot next to the Musigny Grand Cru. The location shows in the grand cru levels of intensity of aroma and length on the palate, with tremendous mineral character. Will need 5-7 years to begin to show itself. RKL "There are two used barrels of the 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Les Borniques 1er Cru this year. It has a deep inky color. The bouquet is rather marked by the wood, although it is much more assimilated on the palate, which shows impressive energy and balance. The components still need to come together, but they will do so with a few years in bottle. 91-93 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesRiper and more fruit forward than Les Charmes, with meaty-savoury aromas and powerful black fruits. Easy, accessible and very juicy on the palate at the moment. The fruit is the star of this wine...a "crowd-pleaser" and a definite 'buy'. RKL "The 2018 Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras 1er Cru, which underwent malolactic earlier than the Charmes, has a more backward bouquet and more red fruit, plus a touch of brown spices. The palate is medium-bodied with dark-chocolate-tinged red fruit, and here the oak is a little dominant toward the sucrous finish. The Charmes might be the better long-term bet. 91-93 points" points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesFrom 60 years old vines. Precise red fruits, fresh and with mineral intensity on palate. Impression of elegance and energy rather than concentration, but the fruit is more accessible than in any year I can recall tasting here. Great development and very good length on the finish for a village wine. RKL "The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes comes from vines averaging 60 years of age, within nine parcels that are representative of the appellation. It has a lovely bouquet of undergrowth scents percolating through red berry fruit that is slightly darker than the Bourgogne Rouge, the 50% whole cluster nicely integrated. The lightly spiced palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity and an elegant finish that exerts gentle grip.

Tasting NotesTortochot's 21.33 ares (approx 0.2 ha) holding here comprises just seven rows of vines, on the lower slopes of the Clos.

Tasting NotesThe three-hectare premier cru 'Sur la Velle' is one of the best terroirs in Monthelie, extending onto the slopes of Volnay, 230-370 metres above sea level. Yields for the 2019 were just 17hl/ha. Matured in oak vats and barrels for 18 months. Intense violet, raspberry and some cherry on the nose, leading to a broad, full palate, with vibrant, energetic raspberry fruit and extremely supple tannins, which bring Volnay to mind. Wonderfully open and approachable now, no sign of this wine 'closing' down, but with lots of potential for development. RKL------"Mid crimson...deep raspberry perfume starts to emerge, but it needs coaxing, attractively full across the mid palate. There is plenty of substance to this wine but it is a little hard to discern today...89-90 points." Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, Feb 2021 |

Tasting NotesThe first time we tasted his Hautes Côte de Nuits, Dominique commented that growers are increasingly looking at plots at the tops of their slopes. Labelled as 'Hautes Côtes', they often echo the style of the nearby village. The 2019 from cask is a little dominated by oak aromas at present (to be expected) but there is underlying fruit which will assert itself with a couple of years in bottle. The tannins are very fine, finer than in the last two vintages. Silky and concentrated rather than rustic power this year. RKL |

Tasting NotesFrom a small plot of vines in Chambolle. Dark brambly fruits on the nose, cherry jam, well-integrated oak and some heady floral (rose petal) aromas too.

As usual, this is a fine proposition for the medium- to long-haul. 93-95 points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com |

Tasting NotesThe 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru has an exquisite bouquet of crystalline red berry fruit laced with minerals, wonderfully delineated and focused. The palate is smooth and sensual on the entry, and very cohesive, with a perfect line of acidity. Pure and ravishing, armed with a satin-textured finish, this is going to be very difficult to resist once in bottle. Superb. 93-95 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesSmoky, deep and open on the nose, red and blue fruits, raspberry, kirsch, herbal and very intense. A superb start. On the palate, soft tannins very fruit-forward, perhaps without quite the length of earlier vintages, but the tannins will likely develop. A tad less elegant on the finish than in other years but that is easy to forgive when there is so much generosity! RKL "The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes comes from vines up to 85 years old. It has a sensual bouquet of brambly red fruit, undergrowth and light truffle aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, moderate acidity and decent length. What is missing is a little tension and precision on the finish compared to other vintages. 2023-2030. 86-88 points." Neal Martin, Vinous.com, Dec 2020 |

Tasting Notes"The 2019 Chambolle-Musigny Village has a transparent bouquet with touches of Earl Grey tea interwoven into the lifted red berry scents.

Tasting Notes"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village does not quite have the expressiveness of the Morey Village on the nose and demands more coaxing, a little broody and sultry at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit with touches of sous-bois and white pepper. Lovely balance here and the precision on the finish compensates for the bashful aromatics. It will need 24 months once in bottle and fingers crossed the nose will step up a gear. 88-90 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesTortochot, but not as we know it! Previous vintages of Lavaux from cask have been quite closed but this is immediate and full of vibrant dark fruits and gamey aromas.

Tasting NotesIntense black and cherry fruits on the nose again, but the palate is distinct from the Gevrey and true to its terroir, with softer tannins and a rounder, fuller palate. Some spice and a palate-coating texture, with earthy notes resonating on the back of the palate. RKL |

There is also some crushed-rock minerality on the finish, for those who care to look for it. The finish is pleasingly savoury after all the fruit concentration on the palate. Brilliant value. RKL |

Tasting NotesVines planted in 1914. Les Fourneaux is a lieu-dit within the Clos Rousseau Premier Cru, one of the Santenay's best sites. 30% new wood. Tasted directly from tank, hence the nose is more restrained than the previous wine. Still very expressive, with a huge tannic structure, more powerful than the straight Clos Rousseau, less chalky, more clay influence, a broader-shouldered wine. Very long ageing potential. RKL |

Tasting NotesA blend of climats, from Santenay-Le-Haut. Refined, pure summer fruits on the nose, raspberry and strawberry, very intense; then equally refined tannins and concentrated dark cherry on the palate.

Tasting Notes"Rich purple, the warm site of La Coutière delivers a slightly more cooked fruit on the nose. However the wine grows on the palate because there is a fresher, juicier red fruit behind, a little bit of peach, good acidity. Charles does not punch down this or the Corton to avoid firm tannins. 88-90 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"A slightly riper nose of baked plum, warm earth and a smoky wisp gives way to delicious and caressing medium weight flavors that culminate in a lingering and moderately rustic finale. 88-91 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Aromas of cassis, plums and sweet forest floor, framed by creamy new oak, introduce the 2020 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru La Coutière, a medium to full-bodied, rich and structured wine built around lively acids and powdery tannins. 91 points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com |

Tasting Notes"Rich but precise, the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St Jacques exhibits notions of raspberries and plums mingled with rose petals, sweet soil tones and warm spices. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and perfumed, with lively acids, ripe tannins and a long, saline finish, it's showing beautifully. 93 points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com------"A cool and decidedly floral-inflected nose speaks of a spicy blend of both red and dark currant along with plenty of sauvage hints. There is again very good intensity to the bigger-bodied and more muscular medium weight plus flavors that brim with both minerality and dry extract on the moderately austere, beautifully long, serious and built-to-age finish. At least some forbearance required. 91-94 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Rich purple here, waiting for the bouquet to emerge, plumper and less stern than Estournelles. A huge wealth of fruit, as yet a little monotone, but will develop further from here. There really is a great deal of stuffing here for a long term future. 92-95 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"Richer and deeper pitched, the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes mingles aromas of wild berries and plums with hints of baking chocolate, sweet spices and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and textural, it's layered and fleshy, with an ample core of fruit, powdery tannins and lively balancing acids. 90+ points" William Kelley, RobertParker.com------"A deft application of wood can be found on the ripe aromas of poached plum, cassis, humus and newly turned earth. There is excellent density to the mouth coating medium weight plus flavors that evidence fine power on the long, serious and youthfully austere but not rustic finale. An impressive villages. 89-92 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes has a delightful, mineral-driven bouquet with redcurrent, raspberry preserve and crushed stone. Quintessentially Gevrey. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, gentle grip, a nice bitter cherry undertow with cingering seline finish. This is well worth seeking out. 90-92 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"40 to 100 years plus, the oldest being a plot of Epointures planted in 1915, and mostly well placed above the road. The nose offers a depth and weight of dark fruit without too much detail. There is more in the way of plump ripe raspberry fruit on the palate, more juice and less structure at the back. Really continues through extremely well. 91-93 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting NotesLes Naugues (pronounce, rather disconcertingly, with a hard 'g') is a 1 ha south-facing site, with 46 year-old vines, on limestone-marl. The aspect means that the grapes here ripen early. Aged 100% in oak barrels, of which 30% are new. Deep, spciy and multi-layered on the nose, great intensity of aroma, richly textured, dark fruit but with some notes of redcurrant adding maintaining the freshness. Grand Voyens is usually the more immediate wine, but it in 2020 Les Naugues gives it a run for its money and will ultimately have more complexity. RKL |

The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins, a fine bead of acidity, vibrant and fresh with a slightly candied finish. There is something very seductive and more-ish about this Volnay - excellent. 92-94 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"Medium to deep purple, beautifully ripe, so much going on, plump lush raspberry but never losing its thread, more character in this warmer vintage rather than drying it. This is a very good Clos de la Barre, as good as I can remember. Tasted: November 2021. 92-94 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"Bright purple with a ripe, cherry-laden nose. Sweet bright fruit, roses and cherries, actually very attractive and well balanced at the finish, with clean, resolved tannins and enough acidity. Tasted: December 2021 89-91 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Village, matured in around 25% new oak, has quite a perfumed bouquet with red cherries and rose petal scents, quite airy and nicely focused. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, slightly creamy in texture, gaining weight towards the finish that feels quite caressing. 89-91 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"This also offers a noticeable step up in elegance with its pretty mix of red currant, plum, dark cherry and pretty spice wisps. I very much like the texture of the middle weight flavors that possess both good density and minerality that become more apparent as the lingering and youthfully austere finish sits on the palate. Lovely and very Chambollesque. 89-91 points. Outstanding." Burghound |

Tasting Notes"Touches of wood and menthol can be found on the ripe aromas of black cherry, raspberry and the sauvage. The supple, seductive and very suave larger-scaled flavors possess really lovely intensity that carries over to the dusty, palate coating, powerful and mildly warm finale. This too is definitely built-to-age. 91-94 points" points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Rich, exuberant purple. A cheerful nose, flamboyantly perfumed which is as Charmes should be. I very much like the balance of this, which is all in red fruit, succulent strawberry and raspberry, good acidity, no feeling of excess heat. 14.1% but holds it without difficulty. Tasted: December 2021. 93-95 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru was very closed on the nose despite encouragement. This feels very introverted. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fine acidity, more expressive here in the mouth than on the nose with black pepper, bay leaf and clove towards the finish. Give this a few years in bottle and wait for the aromatics to blossom. 93-95 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting Notes"Cask sample. Deep cherry; rich, dense nose of cherries, mulberries and blueberries; round and full. Elegant and suave. Fine tannins. 17 points" jancisrobinson.com (MH)------"Once again there is very good ripeness to the notes of poached plum, dark berry liqueur and more prominent earth and game wisps. There is very good volume to the dense, delicious and palate soaking big-bodied flavors that deliver very fine length on the robust, powerful, rustic and built-to-age finale. Patience. Outstanding. 91-93 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Black centre, peaches and dark plums on the nose, wealthy and ripe, luxurious in style, a little too much for me but it is not unbalanced for those who like the riper style. Is showing a little on the massive side today. Under 14% though. Romain had some holes dug and found a surprising depth of clay on top of the mother rock, thus holding the water supply well. Tasted: December 2021. 91-94 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru was only slightly touched by the hail in early August. Lucky escape. The bouquet has a well-defined bouquet with dark berry fruit, white pepper and just a hint of menthol in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, quite minty towards the open and quite feisty finish. Good persistence here. Very fine. 92-94 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesLots of complex, delicate and refined aromas of herbs, flowers and earth on the nose, contrasting with the palate which fans out and shows real depth. Mme Tortochot says this is a very elegant Charmes and it's hard not to agree. Excellent length on the finish. RKL |

Tasting NotesTortochot own just seven rows of 80-year-old vines in Clos de Vougeot, running from the road to around two thirds of the way up the Clos. Restrained on the nose, taut but with great density on the palate. Mme Tortochot says this needs 20 years to come around and I can believe it would be superb then...but personally I would enjoy it much sooner! RKL |

Tasting NotesThe Lavaux St Jacques premier cru is one of the best sites in Gevrey, sitting in a small valley (the Combe de Lavaux). Benefiting from a south-facing exposure, it is nevertheless cooler than the famous Clos St Jacques, due to cool winds which funnel down the valley. Tortochot's 0.64 ha parcel produces their finest Gevrey wines (aside from the grands crus). The 2020 has an intense nose displaying mineral and chalky aromas, some reduction (animal aromas) and an intense, assertive and austere palate, with firm but wonderfully polished tannins. Refined and will be very long-lived. RKL------"Cask sample. Elegant, classy wine with fine structure, good acid and tannin framework. Not over-sweet but all the better for that. Will age very nicely. Drink 2024 – 2034. 17.5 points" jancisrobinson.com (AWH) |

Tasting NotesLes Corvees' is an 0.86 ha lieu-dit vineyard is at the end of the 'combe' (valley) formed by the slopes of Gevrey, with 50-year-old vines. Chantal has used just 10% new oak in her village wines. Some wild, animal, reductive aromas, generous and intense red and dark fruits, supple tannins, lively acidity and minerality on the finish, so easy and enjoyable even from cask. RKL |

Tasting NotesPLEASE REQUEST ALLOCATION------A great contrast to the Charmes, this is much more intense on the nose, powerful and plush on the palate. Lots of dark fruits but with layers of coffee and earth too. Richly-textured, vibrant and with a saline character on the finish which gives vibrancy and freshness, despite all that power. RKL------"Cask sample. Fine, great balance here between the ripe fruit characters, fine tannin and excellent acidity. Doesn't suffer from any excessive over-sweetness but balances the ripeness of the vintage with freshness and concentration. Will age very well. Drink 2023 – 2040. 17.5++ points" jancisrobinson.com (AWH) |
