(85-87) Neal Martin

The 2022 Bourgogne Roncevie has commendable fruit concentration on the nose, with black cherries and bilberry fruit. The palate is well-balanced, and the 10% new oak neatly  integrated. It is quite sweet, with touches of blackcurrant pastilles towards the finish. Fine.

(89-91) Neal Martin The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Village is what you might call the most transparent of Arlaud's Village Cru, with lifted wild strawberry and raspberry fruit and a little more tension and delineation.

Wine Safari Score: 92-93/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A blend of two village parcels En Seuvres and Clos Solon that sees 10% new oak, this 2022 shows seductive, exotic aromatics of red plum, red currant jelly and smoky earthy cherry hints. The texture is incredibly pure and polished, seamless, showing great balance and harmony.

(89-91) Neal Martin The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Village, aged in 10% new oak and completely de-stemmed, has an attractive bouquet demonstrating a little more nuance than the Morey Village. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins on the entry.

(92-94) Neal Martin The 2022 Morey-Saint-Denis Aux Chesaux 1er Cru is very delineated and harmonious on the nose, with blackberry and wild strawberry fruit, crushed rock and light dried rose petal scents from the whole bunches. The medium-bodied palate has a fresh, saline entry, beautifully structured with gentle grip.

Wine Safari Score: 93-95/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A very sophisticated wine whispering true class and pedigree. The aromatics are delicate, intricate and wonderfully perfumed with notes of violets, rose petals, red cherries and pink musk.

Wine Safari Score: 92-94+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. Deep, expressive and very classy, the nose shows perfumed spicy rose petal notes before meatier red and black fruits over crushed limestone, struck flint and a certain sapidity.

Wine Safari Score: 94-96/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A very classy regal expression with an intricate aromatics of violet perfume and ripe berry fruit notes, all punctuated by a subtle, spicy, dusty minerality.

Wine Safari Score: 91-92+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. Made from a blend of three separate plots, this Nuits is deep, dark and broody, a very serious offering with layers of savoury black fruits and a smoky graphite minerality.

Wine Safari Score: 91-93/100 Greg Sherwood MW Sourced from the Aux Communes plot, the nose shows savoury red and black berry fruits, some earthy hints, and a classic Asian five spice complexity over a subtle struck flint reduction notes.

Wine Safari Score: 92-93+/100 Greg Sherwood MW An alluring, exotic aromatics of black currant, black plum, musk and pink flowers before more traditional dusty mineral limestone notes. There is a lovely breadth and depth of flavour in the mouth, creamy fine-tuned mineral tannins and a long, fresh, harmonious finish.

Score: 95-97, Jasper Morris, MW, Inside Burgudy
From the upper part of Les Treux. Glowing purple. The nose is discreet. The palate does the Echezeaux latticework thing with lots of detail, and exceptional length. Goes on dancing, tiptoeing, across the palate for a long time. Just one barrel. The fruit stays with me.

Wine Safari Score: 93-95/100 Greg Sherwood MW. A deep dark broody expression showing all the latent power and muscle of Clos Vougeot. There are layers of dark spicy plum, bramble berry fruits and a smoky wood ember nuance before a limestone minerality.

91 - 93 points, Allen Meadows, Burghound and 93 points, Andy Howard MW, Decanter

Premier cru Montmain’s unique terroir of very stony terrain produces a wine with very pronounced mineral aromas, extraordinary power and excellent ageing potential.

5 Star Wine, 93-95 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy: Clear lemon and lime colour. Just a very light coquillage reduction. Then the wine builds a beautiful level of intensity on the palate, a lime thread, very salivating for its dry finish. An impeccable balance, this is faultless. And so persistent!

5 Star wine, 89-92 pts, Jasper Morris MW, Insude Burgundy: To bottle in November. The average age is 40 year old vines, and 10% in wood. Excellent long finish. Sources are Chablis and Chichée for half and the rest in Viviers, 50 year old vines.

5 Star Wine 93-95 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy: From multiple plots: east facing kimmeridgian marl in Pied d’Aloue (0.50ha), one hectare in Chapelot, (more soil here, fatter wine), then the rest in Bréchain, where vines dating back to 1936, give tension. What a beautiful bouquet.

Allen Meadows, Burghound "Sweet Spot" wine. 91 - 94 pts: Slightly more evident wood influence can be found on the less elegant but beautifully layered nose of citrus confit, acacia blossom and wet stone scents.

93-96 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy: A small lot so better to assemble early, which has just been done. A fresh green light shines through the clouds nonetheless. Picked among the first, a little yellow fruit plums and fresh white peaches. Salty rather than saline, with a fine firm backbone.

93-95, Jasper Morris, MW, Inside Burgundy

5 Star Wine, 93-97 pts Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy: A glowing pale lemon and lime. Sunny and fresh at the same time, with an extraordinary tension on the nose. Still a wine of discretion, Didier has made wines which completely avoid heaviness while still delivering all that is necessary in concentration and backbone.

5 Star Wine 95-98, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy: Mostly from old vines, a good half planted between 1948 and 1952. Translucent lemon and lime colour. The bouquet is not ready to unfurl yet there is a sense of sublime purity about the nose. A wine in perfect harmony on its wide bench of white fruit.

92-94 pts, Jasper Morris, MW, Inside Burgundy

92-95 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy: Fresh pale green tint. Didier describes this as the entry level grand cru. The average age of the vines is at or above 60 years.
