(90-92 points) A slightly fresher nose is otherwise really quite similar to that of the Suchots. The velvet and seductively textured medium weight flavors possess both a bit more volume and a caressing mouthfeel, all...

The lively acidity and touch of blood-orange character keep this youthful but balanced pinot noir very bright and focused on the medium-bodied palate. Really long, velvety finish with excellent earthy depth. From...

(90-91 points) Once again, Mortet opted to use a significant percentage of whole bunches in his 2023 Fixin Vieilles Vignes, and the resulting wine is perfumed and immediate, delivering notes of orange zest, cassis and...

(90-92 points) A healthy mid purple. The bouquet is a little livelier than Fleurières. In fact, this is the more floral wine of the two, with slightly fresher red fruits. Plenty of energy across the palate, a good balance...

(90-91 points) 10 plots representing three of their 8.5ha. Deep purple with a lighter rim. A darker, denser fruit, less explosive than the Bourgogne. A few blackcurrants and bilberries, not quite squeezed till the pips...

The 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1er Cru offers a mixture of red and black fruit, hints of chalk and light Earl Grey scents percolating through with time. Again, lovely mineralité. The palate is...
