2017 Red Wine from Cote De Nuits

Burghound, 95 points: (92-95) This too is quite firmly reduced and unreadable today. Otherwise there is a bit more size and weight to the broad-shouldered flavors that possess even better mid-palate density before terminating in a markedly...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Ripe, rich and firmly structured, this is a bold and imposing Gevrey-Chambertin with power that builds quickly on the muscular palate. Long, silky and pristine finish that carries you off towards the horizon. Try in 2021.

Wine Spectator, 95 points: This red shows plenty of depth, with black cherry, blackberry, mineral and spice flavors. Dense and powerful, yet remains balanced, playing out nicely on the toasty, raspy finish. Needs a few years to absorb the oak. Best...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A remarkably fragrant and filigree interpretation of an appellation that’s famous for ripeness and boldness. The finely etched tannins are beautifully married to lively acidity and the bright red-fruit aromas harmonize...

Decanter, 93 points: Classic and elegant with glossy red and black fruits, subtle oak, silky and suave tannins and a juicy, crunchy finish.

Decanter, 96 points: One of the jewels in the Drouhins' array of grands crus, this old-vine parcel covers 0.5ha. Intensely coloured, with 80% new wood for support, this is aromatic and textured, unfurling aromas and flavours of liquorice...

Burghound, 94 points: (91-94) A brooding and inexpressive nose reluctantly offers up attractively spiced aromas of dark cherry, raspberry and plenty of floral wisps. There is even better volume and mid-palate density to the solidly powerful...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Alluring, featuring sandalwood, warm spice, cherry and mineral flavors, this red is smooth and juicy. Displays ample structure underneath, allowing this to develop over the medium term. Best from 2022 through 2040. 524...

Decanter, 92 points: Charles van Canneyt uses fruit from 11 different parcels in his textbook village Chambolle. This is a Pinot drinker's Pinot, all scented and refined, with an easy-drinking summer berry sweetness with tangy acidity and a...
