2012  

Cuvees des Alouettes 1er -- "Once again reduction renders the nose impossible to fairly assess. There is however a fine sense of energy and really lovely delineation to the lightly mineral-inflected middle weight flavors that possess very solid mid-palate concentration and a high level of phenolic maturity to the supporting tannins, all wrapped in a balanced and admirably lingering finish. This almost always delivers excellent value and quality and the 2012 version should be no exception." - 90-92pts Burghound

2019  Les Murgers des Cras

Les Murgers des Cras ---- A blend of declassified 1er Crus, composed from 20% Les Murgers, 20% Aux Cras and 60% Richemone ---- "A cool, pure and elegant nose exhibits aromas of black cherry, poached plum and a variety of spice elements that are trimmed in wisps of wood and warm earth. The sleek, intense and very punchy medium weight flavors flash evident minerality on the focused and solidly powerful finish that is also shaped by firm by fine-grained tannins. This is robust and serious but not rustic and should age accordingly. Worth checking out." - 91-93pts BH

2017  1er Les Champeaux

1er Cru Les Champeaux -- "Typically one of the broadest-shouldered wines in the cellar, the 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Champeaux was lightly reduced on the day that I tasted it, unwinding in the glass to reveal plenty of red-black fruit and savory nuance. On the palate, the wine was easier to read, displaying a medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated profile, with excellent amplitude, juicy acids and a long, delineated finish. It's a definite success." - 91-93+pts WA -- "This too is strongly reduced. The medium weight and lively flavors possess a comparatively refined mouthfeel and plenty of minerality on the firmer if less muscular finish where a touch of wood toast can be found. This too will require at least some patience and reward up to 15 years of it." - 90-93pts/Outstanding BH

2019  Tres Vieilles Vignes

Tres Vieilles Vignes ---- "There are four barrels of the 2019 Vosne-Romanée Vieilles Vignes, derived as usual from holdings in Les Quartiers de Nuits - from the part of the lieu-dit that is not included within the boundaries of the Echézeaux Grand Cru - and contiguous Les Violettes. Mingling notes of wild berries and raspberries with exotic top notes of mandarin rind, Asian spices and peonies, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a concentrated core of fruit complemented by complexifying carnal nuances." - 91-93pts William Kelley, Wine Advocate ---- "A wonderfully fresh nose combines notes of plum, exotic tea and lovely spice nuances. The suave and sophisticated medium weight flavors possess a caressing palate impression before concluding in a beautifully complex and focused finale that is decidedly firm but not really austere. This is an excellent Vosne villages and worth your interest." - 90-92/Outstanding Top Value, Burghound
