(93-96 points) Entirely destemmed in contrast to the Arnaud Mortet label of Lavaux. 70% new wood. A lively glowing purple with a very exuberant nose. Perfume and some fresh oak, typical of the cooler sites which really...

(91-93 points) Planted at the same time as Craipillot, Au Closeau offers a brighter deeper richer purple. This is luxurious but not clumsy, with a little spicy touch, from 50% whole bunch. Works very well here, with a...

(91-93 points) The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet of red and black fruit mixed with truffle and subtle minty aromas that gradually gain intensity in the glass. The palate is...

(94-97 points) Once again moderately prominent wood still allows the overtly spicy and floral-inflected dark currant, black cherry and discreet earth nuances to be appreciated. The mid-palate of the broad-shouldered...

(89--91 points) The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has much more clarity and Gevrey character than the version without SO2; this is much better. The palate is medium-bodied with fine acidity. Crisp and focused, displaying...

Fragrant, fluid and seductive for the silky texture, with cherry, floral, sandalwood and oak spice aromas and flavors. Well-structured yet deftly balanced, this feels effortless and graceful overall. Reveals licorice and...

(94-97 points) Gorgeous deep fresh yellow, picked on 28th August, 13.85% already, it was time to do it! Very high-class nose, full of complex options. Benjamin didn’t like the new wood component so quickly took it out...

From various vineyards in the centre of the appellation, on both sides of the main road: Platière, Puits de la Baraque, Crais, Charreux, Champerriers. Full deep purple, with a luxurious ripe, but balanced fruit, an extra...

(90-92 points) A very ripe though still reasonably fresh nose offers up notes of sauvage-inflected dark pinot fruit along with floral, earth and forest floor nuances. There is excellent intensity to the equally sleek and...

(92-96 points) Immense dense purple, almost prune juice. Picked by the vigneron who picks late! 30% whole bunch, maybe saves the day. It is an immensely powerful wine in a very distinct late picked style. Not unbalanced...

An open and harmonious red, with fine intensity to the cherry, wild strawberry, incense, spice and earth aromas and flavors. This is driven by lively acidity, with firm, civilized tannins underneath. Long finish, where...

Perfumed and pure, exuding vivid cherry, strawberry, rose, sandalwood and mineral flavors. Despite its charm and elegant profile, this has well-integrated acidity and tannins. Balanced and long, with a chalky feel...

Broad and infused with plum, black cherry, earth and spice flavors, this red is also dense with tannins. Feels balanced, with a texture that borders on creamy, revealing generous fruit and spices on the finish. Best from...

(89-91 points) The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Crapiots 1er Cru just misses the precision of the En Champs, coming across a little broody with a subtle briny influence. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins...

Supple and packed with cherry and spice flavors, this red is supported by bright acidity and dusty tannins. Hints of wild herbs, tobacco and toasty oak round out the flavor spectrum. It has intensity and fine balance...
