The 2016 Pommard Les Jarollières 1er Cru has a clean and pure bouquet with black cherries, raspberry coulis and light cassis scents. The oak here is evident but nicely proportioned against the fruit. The palate is...

Sleek and lively, with bracing acidity propelling black cherry, blueberry, mineral and spice flavors. Shows latent energy and a long, saturated finish. Best from 2020 through 2029. 70 cases made, 30 cases imported. — BS

(90-92 points) A restrained but softly perfumed nose combines notes of red and dark cherry, spice, plum, sandalwood and a hint of violet. There is a bit more flesh to the equally racy, intense and stony flavors that...

(91-93 points) 60 barrels instead of 100 from this vineyard which has just been sold, so Jadot may not get the fruit in future. Good even medium dark red to purple colour, the nose is less boisterous than the Volnay...

Packed with fruit as well as rich wood and smoke flavors, this wine is still young but has potential. Ripe berry fruits will come together well as the wine moves into the next stage. Drink from 2023. ROGER VOSS

A ripe but attractively fresh nose speaks of humus, freshly turned earth, violet and poached plum. There is both good richness and volume to the overtly rustic medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent complexity on...

(91-93) This too is firmly reduced today. Otherwise the mouth feel of the medium weight flavors is finer if slightly less powerful while tightening up considerably on the super-saline and overtly mineral-driven finish...

A vibrant, succulent red, this delivers intense flavors of red currant, wild cherry and violet, with undertones of stone and loam. Balanced and well-defined, showing a long, stone-infused finish. Best from 2021...

(92-93 points) Not quite the same depth of colour as En Cailleret. Gentler red fruit notes, a fresh raspberry feel with a touch of redcurrant, fresh finish. Good length too, stylish wine.

The 2016 Volnay Carelle Sous La Chapelle 1er Cru is noticeably deeper in colour than its peers. The nose has plenty of quite lush red berry fruit, but it misses the clarity of other Volnays included in this tasting. The...

This is savory, boasting sandalwood, cedar and sawdust notes that accent the floral, black cherry, vanilla and toast flavors. A bit firm on the finish, leaving a mouthwatering impression. Best from 2022 through 2033. 375...

The 2016 Pommard 1er Cru les Vignots, which was not touched by frost, has a lifted bouquet with vibrant red berry fruit laced with blueberry and a touch of inkwell. I like the focus and purity here. The palate is...

(92-94) Bright, dark red. Less purely black on the nose than the Epenots, showing enticing spicy lift to its raspberry and mint aromas. At once sweet and brisk in the mouth, with its red berry flavors complicated by notes...

Initial aromas of earth and garlic blow off on the palate, but there are black cherry, black currant, violet and sandalwood notes that build to a long finish. Ripe and well-oaked, yet balanced and expressive. This red is...

(90-93) A well-layered nose combines notes of red and dark currant, spice and a pretty hint of lavender. The denser, serious and more powerful big-bodied flavors brim with both dry extract and minerality that carries over...

This red rides in on a blaze of pure cherry, raspberry and violet aromas and flavors. Gains depth, showing earth and mineral elements allied to a vibrant structure. Though the tannins are substantial, this should come...

The 2016 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Valozières was showing very well, exhibiting notes of sweet red berries, cassis, orange rind, grilled squab and chocolate. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, ample and velvety...

Intense aromas of black cherry, pomegranate and tamarind mark this juicy red. Smooth, with well-integrated tannins lending a dusty feel as the finish plays out. Already harmonious, this should develop well over the next...
