As I wrote earlier this year, Bonneau du Martray's 2020 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru unwinds in the glass with aromas of crisp Anjou pear, peach and nectarine mingled with white flowers, clear honey, nutmeg, mint and...

The very complex nose of flint, dried pear, Amalfi lemon and fresh ginger pulls you inexorably into this super focused and racy Corton-Charlemagne that is still tightly wound. Wonderful silky texture at the very long...

Aromas of crisp orchard fruit, white flowers, hazelnuts and clear honey introduce Coche's 2021 Meursault Village, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive wine with a pretty core of fruit girdled by tangy acids and...

This white starts out rich, turning leaner and focused on the finish, with vanilla, butterscotch, apple tart and lemon flavors that ride a vibrant structure. Shows fine length. Drink now through 2026. - BS

(90-92 points) The 2020 Meursault Les Santenots Blanc ler Cru has a precise bouquet with lemon zest, orange blossom and crushed rock scents, all well defined and focused. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity...

The newest vintage of Bonneau du Martray points the direction the estate will now chart. This is an imperious wine, powerful, concentrated, and richly aromatic. Pronounced butter and baking spice aromas from the cask...

From the site’s Chassagne side, Jadot’s 2007 Montrachet smells like an essence of fresh apple and quince laced with brown spices, lily, and narcissus; detonates on the palate with an energetic interplay of fruit, flowers...

Domaine de Montille farms a large parcel of 1.7 hectares of seventy-year-old vines in thin, rocky soils at the top of the slope. In 2021 the vineyard produced a deeply-coloured win with a beautifully expressive nose of...

Here's a very well-structured and bright Meursault with chalky minerality that lifts the generous body, making it feel like it's lighter than it really is. Some creaminess on the mid-palate, but emphatically dry at the...

Full pear and candied-lemon nose with quite pronounced, yeasty notes from sur-lie maturation and a hint of tarragon. Quite a rich, bold wine for Santenay, but with a cool, slightly herbal side that balances the ripeness...

Ample and demonstrative when I tasted it from barrel, Lamy's 2018 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly has tightened up after bottling. Unwinding in the glass with notes of orange oil, nutmeg, pear and toasted bread, it's...

The ripe apple and spice of the initial attack seemed almost monolithic at first glance, but with time (and food), this wine took on surprising nuance and depth, with floral, mineral, and spice aromas developing with...

2019 proved a difficult vintage; down 15% due to the difficult flowering, the heat and lack of water. Despite all of these factors, this wine - assembled from ten different parcels - is exceedingly lovely, with ripe...

An intense version, yet reticent, hesitating to fully unlock the floral, apple, lemon and mineral aromas and flavors today. Builds in intensity to a long, pure finish of lemon, stone and spice. Best from 2020 to...

This extraordinary wine has barely evolved since its release. It still shows a very light lemon-yellow colour and youthful notes of lemon, green apple, acacia flowers, mineral and oak spice, all still enveloped in a smoky...

(92-93 points) This is a real Puligny with lemons and cooked apples. Hints of straw and limestone. Full- to medium-bodied, layered and clean. Bright finish. A beauty. Savory and salt at the end. Drink now.

An intense, powerful white saturated with lime blossom, lemon meringue pie, butterscotch and apple tart aromas and flavors. Complex and balanced, with a terrific mineral- and spice-tinged aftertaste. Shows fine aging...

Coche produced six barrels of the beautiful 2020 Meursault 1er Cru Les Caillerets from this seldom-seen climat on the northern side of Meursault. Wafting from the glass with scents of white flowers, crisp green orchard...

(94-97 points) Here the wood treatment is no longer subtle though it stops short of fighting with the wonderfully broad-ranging nose of lemon confit, jasmine tea, acacia blossom and an abundance of spice elements. There...

(95-98 points) Once again a subtle but not invisible application of wood frames cool and ripe aromas of green apple, acacia blossom, petrol and airy zest-tinged nuances. Interestingly, the middleweight flavors aren't...

(90-92 points) 5 barrels in half a hectare, actually a good result for Blagny in 2021, mostly from the more backward older vines. Lemon and lime colour, quite austere, a minor reduction, but a suggestion of good fruit to...

(93-95 points) Picked on 26th August, 12.9% alcohol, 4.50TA and 3.25pH. One of the lighter, cooler colours, a very discreet bouquet, then it starts to build really well. So beautifully poised on the palate, exactly the...

Clean, revealing a stony mineral element underneath lemon, apple and baking spice flavors. Balanced on a linear profile, this persists on the lemony finish. Drink now through 2027. - BS
