IB | |||||
Tasting NotesAfter such an array of wines with distinct terroirs, it seems churlish to say the Cazetiers is a favourite, but it's such a complete wine, with elements of all the others...suppleness, depth, minerality, elegance, Cazetiers has it all. RKL------"The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru has more red berry fruit than the Lavaux, slightly earthy red fruit, bay leaf and light truffle aromas. Quite "contained" at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, fresh and smooth, white pepper and thyme emerging towards the refined and quite persistent finish. Very fine. Drinking Window: 2027 - 2044. 92 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"Here too moderate wood influence is present on the equally sauvage-inflected nose of red and dark berries, forest floor and a broader array of spice nuances. The richer and more concentrated flavors also display excellent power on the sappy, youthfully austere and equally structured finale that is just a bit more complex. Excellent potential. Drink: 2034+. 91-94 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"A bright mid ruby. Very attractive bouquet, more character is showing in the detailed red fruit with a bit of orange zest, the slightly peppery mineral finish, and the increased volume of velvety fruit. This works very well in the vintage style. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted Nov 2025. 94 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

IB | |||||
Tasting NotesLes Champeaux is walled vineyard, helping to retain heat. The oak is all second-year barrels or older. Without new oak and from limestone soils, the tannins seem quite austere at this stage, but this is just a sign of promise, with masses of potential to age in bottle. The fruit is very bright and intense, with strawberry and cherry rather than the darker fruit character of some of the other Gevreys. RKL------"The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux 1er Cru, which sees no new oak, has a fragrant bouquet with pressed violet infusing the delineated red berry fruit, just a hint of crushed stones and undergrowth. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, quite tensile and minerally, not a powerful Gevrey but certainly well balanced with a sapid finish that gets the saliva flowing. Drinking Window: 2027 2040. 92 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"Slightly more wood influence frames the distinctly sauvage and forest floor-inflected aromas of wild red currant and spice. The super-sleek, precise and intense flavors exude a bracing minerality on the bitter pit fruit, long and chiseled finale. Promising. Drink: 2031+. 90-93 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"No new wood, all one-year-old barrels ex Cazetiers, his habit for the last three years. A brighter ruby crimson colour. Some positive red fruits, more raspberry here, with some tannin but refined enough, adequate acidity, an understated wine that nevertheless builds as it progresses across the palate. A fine graceful finish. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Nov 2025. 93 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

IB | |||||
Tasting NotesMagnien owns just 0.08 hectares of Ruchottes, but uniquely their plot contains both 'dessus' and 'du bas' terroirs, from the top and bottom of the site. Charles tells us his grandfather saw the potential of this site before others, described it as 'Musigny without the violets'. Just 2.5 barrels were made in 2024. Intense dark fruits and minerality, with lots of structure and power. RKL------"A background hint of truffle character adds interest to the aromas of crushed anise, red and dark wild currant, earth and more subtle wood influence. The super-sleek, refined and intense flavors are almost as mineral-driven as the Estournelles while displaying more power on the balanced, beautifully delineated and exceptionally persistent finale. This does need to develop better depth but that should not be a problem provided it's given a chance. Drink: 2034+. 91-94 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Mid crimson. An elegant if not especially powerful on the nose. Crisp red fruit, some detail, not quite showing the intensity of grand cru, but certainly a pretty and stylish Ruchottes. Drink from 2031-2038. Tasted Nov 2025. 94 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2024 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru has a typically minimalist, strong, crushed rock-infused bouquet that leans more towards black than red fruit at the moment. Very fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple tannins counterbalanced by a silver thread of acidity. Understated, refined, very cohesive towards the finish where it deftly and discreetly fans out. To quote Sade: a smooth operator. Drinking window 2027-2048 95 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

IB | ||||
Tasting NotesFrom 0.13 ha of east-facing vines on limestone and white clayey-marl, at the Southern end of Bonnes Mares. The vines are 95 years old! The wine is aged for 17 months in 50% new oak barrels. Headily ripe but without any sense of being cooked or hot. Intensely earthy, sous bois aromas, bramble and gamey aromas. On the palate, there are more earthy and generally 'below ground' flavours (we're tasting this on a root day) with extremely pure and precise dark cherry fruit and fine minerality on the long finish. RKL------"Once again there is just enough wood present to merit mentioning framing the fresh and layered aromas of plum, dark cherry, soft earth and a range of appealing spice nuances. There is very good volume, size and weight to the rich velvet-textured broad-shouldered flavors that display evident power on the impressively persistent finish. This does need to develop more depth but that's what bottle aging is for as the underlying material seems to be present. Drink: 2034+. 91-93 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"The 2024 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru constitutes two and a half barrels this year. Iris flower and touches of peony unfold on the nose, plenty of dark cherry fruit mixed with cassis, though it doesn't quite "flow" like the 2023. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine acidity and gentle grip with a low-key finish that will hopefully just gain a bit of girth during the remainder of its barrel maturation. It'll come good. Drinking Window 2028-2042. 92-94 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesFruit for the domaines Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Rouge comes from vines on clay-limestone soil in the commune of Meuilley, a few kilometres south west of Chambolle. Aged for 12 months in 15% new oak. Earthy aromas and grilled meats on the nose, along with very pure, concentrated black fruits, confirmed on the palate. RKL------The 2024 Bourgogne Houtes-Côtes de Nuits Rouge has a well-defined nose with wild strawberry and briar scents, as if holding something back in reserve. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, a little sterner than was expecting with a pleasing edginess on the finish. Drink over the next three to four years.

IB | ||||
Tasting NotesA blend of grapes from vines in two lieux-dits vineyards in the village of Vougeot, just a couple of kilometres from Chambolle, on clay-limestone soils. Aged for 12 months in 20% new oak barrels. Piercingly fresh, pretty, floral aromas and fruit on the nose, cherry and blackberry, with some earthy notes. The palate is more taut, with cranberry flavours and chalky acidity. The tautness and concentration of the '24 vintage make this one of the most enjoyable vintages of this cuvée to date. RKL------"The 2024 Bourgogne Rouge offers cranberry and strawberry scents on the nose with touches of lavender in the background. The palate is medium bodied with slightly firmer tannins than the Passetoutgrain, with a bit more bite and tension on the finish. Decent enough. Drinking Window: 2025-2030. 86 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"A fresh, bright and cool nose combines notes of both red and dark berries with those of earth and all but invisible wood. There is fine volume to the delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors that possess better than average depth and persistence for the appellation on the lightly austere finale. One to consider. Drink: 2027+. 86-89 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound |

Tasting NotesThe domaine's holding in the Charmes premier cru is just 0.63 ha in size, with predominantly limestone soil, at 270 metres altitude. The wine spends 17 months on average in 30% new oak barrels. The cool limestone soil accentuates acidity and freshness, with more intensity of aroma than the village wine...violets on the nose, but also intense, rich earthy-humus notes. Full of earthy power on the palate too, along with concentrated blueberry and cherry fruit. Les Cras seems to have excelled in the '24 vintage. RKL------"The 2024 Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes 1er Cru, cropped of a decent 35hl/ha due to younger vines, has an engaging though understated bouquet that opens with brambly red fruit, briary and subtle iris flower scents. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, quite fleshy towards the second half though not as complex as other recent vintages. There is just a touch of bitterness right on the finish. Nevertheless, it should gain cohesion during the remainder of its barrel maturation though it is outflanked by the outstanding Les Cras this year. Drinking Window 2027-2037. 89-91 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com ------"Here too the nose is similar to that of the old vines Chambolle with just a bit more oak influence. There is fine richness to the equally dense medium weight flavors that are noticeably more refined yet also a bit more powerful on the lingering, balanced and more structured finale. Drink: 2032+. 90-92 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound |

Tasting NotesThe domaine's holding in Les Cras is even smaller than that in Les Charmes, just 0.37 ha. In most vintages Les Cras shows dark, brooding fruit when young and needs time, but the 2024 has an added elegance and energy, as well as a beautiful texture. Possibly the most impressive Les Cras we have tasted. RKL------"An expressive, cool and quite airy nose derives more from the red side of the fruit spectrum with being liberally laced with hints of spice and wet stone. There more elegant, if slightly less concentrated, middle weight flavors are markedly more mineral-driven while exhibiting fine length on the balanced, lightly austere and equally firm finale. Lovely and understated in style. Drink: 2032+. 90-93 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"The 2024 Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras 1er Cru was cropped at just 19h/ha, much less than Les Charmes this year. This is graced with a bewitching nose with blackberry, wild strawberry and hints of violet, a little richer than the Charmes. The palate is very intense with ample ripe blackberry and raspberry fruit, lightly spiced with a detailed and harmonious finish. This is an excellent Chambolle for the vintage, victorious in context of the inclement vintage. Drinking Window: 2027 2045. 92-94 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting NotesFrom a 1.2 hectare plot on clay-limestone soil in the heart of the Chambolle commune, aged for around 17 months in 25% new oak barrels. Yields were just 22 hl/ha in '24, resulting in very concentrated fruit. Beautiful aromatic nose of violets, wood smoke, Victoria plum and dark cherry. Fresh acidity accentuating the supple tannins and a velvety texture. Excellent length on the palate. The old vines really do lend a concentration and depth on the palate rarely found in village wines. RKL------"The 2024 Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes has quite a floral bouquet with scents of white flowers and potpourri that infuse the transparent red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a pleasant fleshiness but there is just sufficient grip with a dash of white pepper on the finish. Drink over the next several years. Drinking Window: 2027 2035. 87-89 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com ------"A more deeply pitched nose features notes of plum, dark cherry, spice and a violet top note. There is better volume to the delicious and caressing but punchy flavors as the old vines are in evidence while delivering good length on the dusty, lightly stony and lingering finale. This isn't especially refined but offers plenty of character and overall, this is also one to consider provided you're willing to cellar it for a few years first.

Very fine raspberry and cherry aromas on the nose, violets, thyme, then supple tannins on the palate, with a dry finish with some bitter notes, which Benoit says reminds him of the 2016 vintage.

A pretty wine with good length and volume. (MH) 16.5 points" jancisrobinson.com------"The 2024 Beaune Clos des Ursules 1er Cru has a delightful, well-defined and quite complex bouquet with a little more florality and mineralité than the Boucherottes or Cras. Very focused. The palate is very well balanced with just the right amount of acidity. A mixture of red and black fruit laced with white pepper and desiccated orange peel, it feels assured on the finish. A worthy follow-up to the excellent 2023.

Tasting Notes(Heritiers Louis Jadot) "Light crimson. Enticingly sweet and fragrant, with just a light herbal (but not unripe) note. Sweet like wild strawberries and tart like sour cherries but there’s also a fine stone-dust/mineral impression. An unusual impression on the palate, both dry and silky – extreme finesse with a gentle grip. Scented, delicate yet with underlying depth and power. Very long. (JH) 17.5 points" jancisrobinson.com------"Crimson with a paler rim. Some darker cherry and a bit of raspberry. A fair crunch on the palate, though this has ripened to perhaps the optimum degree for the vintage. No more than middleweight, but an attractive Pougets. Drink from 2031-2037. 91-93 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2024 Corton-Pougets Grand Cru is understated compared to previous vintages, lighter yet well balanced and displaying plenty of finesse, wild strawberry mixed with raspberry and wilted rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly furry tannins, moderate weight, nicely balanced with a persistent quite peppery finish that leaves the tongue tingling. Not quite in the league of the best vintages but certainly fine in context of the vintage. Drinking Window: 2028 - 2048. 92-94 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com |

Tasting Notes"Light to mid cherry. Both sweet-fruited and a touch herbal. Chewy yet fine tannin structure, layered and refined if firm overall. Taut, fresh, perhaps a touch lean at the moment.

Some attractive raspberry fruit, plenty of strawberry, a softer style which makes this Echezeaux a little less lacy than usual, yet with good length. Drink from 2030-2037. 92-95 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2024 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a clean, well-defined nose with raspberry coulis, wild strawberry and iodine scents, perhaps not quite as audacious as the 2023 but a very competent and classy Eche'.

Delicious and already harmonious. Pure, bright and long in a lighter style. (JH) 17 points" jancisrobinson.com------"An even crimson colour, not the deepest, but then the dark fruited concentration really kicks in on the palate, with a sterner structure and fine persistence. The nobility of the terroir transcends the vintage. Perhaps not quite the mid palate amplitude of a richer year, but the 2024 Clos St-Jacques has been well made. Drink from 2032-2038. 93-95 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com------"The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is limited to a single foudre this year (equivalent to eight barrels). It demands a little more coaxing than usual from the nose but repays your patience with gorgeous scents of brambly red berries, rosehip, orange pith and crushed stone. It just exudes the essence of Clos Saint-Jacques. The palate is beautifully balanced with fine tannins and a crisp line of acidity. Very harmonious, a most silky in texture, it discreetly fans out towards the finish and has much more persistence than the Estournelles or Lavaux.
