2020  Gevrey-Chambertin

Gevrey-Chambertin ---- "A markedly floral-suffused and exuberantly fresh combination is composed by notes of various red berries, earth and a hint of underbrush. The seductively textured, rich and generously proportioned mid-plate of the middle weight flavors contrasts with the firm, muscular and moderately austere finale. This is a very good Gevrey villages." - Outstanding, Burghound

2018  Grand Cru

"The 2018 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru includes 30% whole bunch with 80% new oak. It has a backward, bashful bouquet that gradually opens to reveal blackberry, boysenberry and light cassis aromas and wonderful mineralité and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red currant and cranberry fruit on the entry. Linear for a Bonnes-Mares, with outstanding tension and energy on the finish. Stunning." - 95-97pts Vinous

70yr old vines ---- "Bursting with aromas of red berries, peonies and orange rind, the 2020 Fixin Vieilles Vignes is medium-bodied, bright and charming, with melting tannins and a long, fragrant finish. It was vinified with some 70% whole bunches this year." - 89-91 WA ---- "An overtly floral nose combines notes of cool and nicely pure red and dark currant, newly turned earth and a hint of crushed fennel. There is both good tension and detail to the energetic middle weight flavors that also exude a lovely minerality on the youthfully austere and sneaky long finale." - BH

2018  

"This is now a 30,000 bottle cuvée coming from 5 plots on the Brochon side of the appellation with vines averaging 50 to 60 years old. Impressive dense purple, this has a magical suavity of dark dense fruit with elegance and balance, really classy. I was going to say that Mes Cinq Terroirs was a textbook Gevrey but it is better than that. Tasted: November 2019." - 5/5 Stars, Jasper Morris MW

2019  Gevrey-Chambertin

"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin "Mes Cinq Terroirs" possesses darker fruit than the Cuvée de Très Vieilles Vignes, blackberry commingled with bilberry and briary, more sous-bois characteristics and a very light slate-like aroma. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins. This feels very harmonious with an almost satin-like texture, gentle grip with superb tension on the finish. This has always been one of Mortet's best "entry-level" cuvées and this has real class and pixelation. Give it 2-3 years in bottle for it to show its best. Wonderful." - 91-93pts Neal Martin, Vinous ---- "All the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, from outside the winery through to Brochon. This emblematic cuvée sees 25% new wood and one third whole bunch vinification. Dense purple, with a reserved nose, which is biding its time, nonetheless suggesting that all is in place. The fruit profile sits perfectly on the cusp of red and black, with a touch of liquorice, excellent length, and an admirable finish. I love the reserved quality of this wine, which will develop beautifully in the long term. Tasted: November 2020." - 92-95 & 5 star, Jasper Morris, MW ---- "This is at once earthier and more reserved with its combination of red and dark berries along with hints of game, underbrush and a forest floor character. There is a bit more volume to the dense and intense medium-bodied flavors that also exude evident minerality on the chiseled and wonderfully refreshing finish. The supporting tannins are noticeably firmer, and this is going to require at least some patience. Recommended as this too is an excellent villages." - Outstanding, Burghound ---- "All the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, from outside the winery through to Brochon.

2022  Gevrey-Chambertin

"The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin "Mes Cinq Terroirs" comes from the north of the appellation and includes one-third of whole bunches due to the acidity being lower than the Marsannay. It has a beautiful bouquet like last year, pure with raspberry and wild strawberry fruit, superb mineralité and vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with dark berry fruit, Earl Grey and light tertiary scents, very cohesive with a persistent finish. This should age extremely well in bottle. 2026-2043." - 92-94pts Vinous
