(91-94 points) Pale lemon in colour. A sun-filled nose without losing balance. This is attractive all the way through but does not kick on immensely beyond what the Clos des Grands Charrons and Terroir d’Exception can...

Pale primrose in colour. Like the Charmes, there is a light reduction, with a richer style of fruit beneath. The 2020 Perrières is certainly more exotic in the mouth, perfumed almost to a musky degree, then the acidity...

A firmly structured wine for this appellation, with the energy and freshness we expect from Savigny-Les-Beaune, Delicate citrus aromas and positive spice. Crisp minerality and acidity driving the long, precise finish...

(90 - 92 points) The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Embazées (Maison Louis Jadot) is turning out quite nicely, revealing aromas of citrus oil, pear, popcorn and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and precise...

The 2020 Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru Clos de la Croix de Pierre Blanc (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot) is especially good this year, wafting from the glass with notes of waxy citrus rind, crisp orchard fruit, pastry cream...

Bright lemony fruit, hints of acacia flower and chamomile. The texture has a waxy and rich texture, but there is plenty of freshness to balance this weight. A very nice success. Domaine Gagey has 1.1ha in Beaun Grèves...

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

The 2020 Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche Grand Cru is consistent with my previous tasting in January. Exquisite definition on the nose, real mineralité here. The palate is intense and penetrating, touches of orange zest...

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

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...

Wonderful, nutty nose with delicate toasty, pear and candied-citrus notes. Plenty of substance and concentration, the mineral freshness lifting up the ample body and giving it tons of energy. Almost perfectly judged oak...

Ripe apricot fruit, with hints of quince and spice on the nose, this is superbly elegant, with a subtly plump texture and impressive length; a superb wine. Colin owns 0.65ha spread over three parcels in this lieu-dit. The...

(93-95 points) The 2020 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru has a complex bouquet, traces of honeysuckle, orchard fruit, hints of meadow gently unfurling on the nose. The palate is beautifully balanced with real intensity and...

(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...

(95 - 97 points) The king of the cellar on the white side of the ledger is the 2020 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru Les Demoiselles (Domaine des Héritiers Jadot), a striking wine that unfurls in the glass with notes of...

(94 - 96 points) The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Caillerets offers up aromas of citrus zest, orange oil and crisp stone fruit mingled with freshly baked bread, white flowers and smoke. Medium to full-bodied...
