Vinous (94-96)The 2018 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru contains 30% whole clusters. It has a perfumed bouquet of blackberry, hints of cassis, crushed violet and touches of potpourri, very well defined and focused and delivering the intensity one expects from this growing season. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins and just the right amount of acidity. Wonderful harmony and composure here, gently unfolding toward a satin-textured finish that lingers long in the mouth. Bon vin! |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)50% Whole Bunch Fermentation; 80% new wood. A blend across many plots, including two younger vines which bring a little bit of volume and freshness. Dense dark purple, a little bit lifted on the nose, yet still clearly ripe. The oak shows more. Touch of raisins and drier finish, this is just coping. Not noble enough though. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (91-94)Good full red. Aromatic but tight nose hints at minerals, spices, pepper and earth. Concentrated, sweet and fine, with a tight kernel of fruit compressed today by strong, sappy acidity. This is backward today, but its intensity and incipient complexity are easy to see. Finishes very long and fine, with noteworthy energy. |

Burghound (96)A gorgeously scented nose offers up layered aromas of spice, earth, tea, sandalwood, wild flowers and black currant. There is an unusually refined mouth feel to the focused, intense and sleekly muscular flavors that possess equally good depth while delivering flat out superb length on the impeccably well-balanced finale. This is still very much on the way up but it is so harmonious and pretty that it could be enjoyed for its nose alone. That said, this is a very serious effort that should peak in the range of 7 to 10 years from now and then be capable of holding for 3 to 4 decades thereafter. In a word, wonderful. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (91-94)Bright, deep red. Aromas of raspberry liqueur, blueberry, menthol and musky herbs. Rich, chewy and dry; comes across as quite austere after the last couple of grand crus. But then Jeremy Seysses finds this quality to be reassuring in the context of 2007. I'm drawn to austerity in this vintage, he told me, adding that he plans to lay down magnums of this wine in his personal cellar, along with the Clos de la Roche and Echezeaux. Finishes with dusty tannins and excellent thrust. |

Wine Advocate (98)The 2020 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is performing every bit as well in bottle as it promised to in barrel. Exhibiting a deep bouquet of dark berries, orange zest, rose petal, coniferous forest floor and spices, it's full-bodied, pure and perfumed, its velvety attack segueing into a deep, layered mid-palate of striking energy and intensity of flavor. This is often my favorite wine in the Dujac cellar, though it invariably takes the better part of two decades to attain a semblance of maturity, and the 2020 is a benchmark rendition. |

Burghound (89-92)Mild reduction is enough to render the nose difficult to read. By contrast there is both good freshness and vibrancy to the sleek and focused middle weight flavors that possess good mid-palate concentration, all wrapped in a firm, serious and mildly austere finale. As is usually the case with Beaux Bruns this is not an elegant Chambolle but rather one of muscle and punch. |

Wine Advocate (87)The 2015 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Aux Beaux Bruns from Joseph Faiveley is notably reduced on the nose, notes of raspberry, cherry and candied peel only emerging with extended aeration. On the palate, the wine is sappy, medium to full-bodied and a bit dried out from its reduction which renders it rather inscrutable, though the raw materials seem to be good. If this shakes off its reduction as it ages it may end up being very good, but my instinct is that it is a sadly stillborn Chambolle. |

Vinous (93-95)(more than 50% of the potential crop was lost to frost; vinified in a new 3.5-hectoliter barrel with 50% whole clusters; one-third of these vines were planted in 2010): Bright, saturated medium red. Knockout perfume of cranberry, pomegranate, raspberry and white pepper. Vividly high-pitched and fine-grained in the mouth, with its penetrating, floral red fruit flavors accented by pungent crushed-stone minerality. Delivers outstanding intensity without weight, not to mention superb inner-mouth tension and saline complexity. This fabulously perfumed wine finishes with terrific rising length. This wine may not have the volume or power of the Combe d'Orveau but I suspect it will dance on its sibling's grave. |

Burghound (95-98)A very pungent nose displays plenty of wood and menthol influences on the quite firmly reduced aromas. There is superb richness and intensity to the seductively textured mineral-inflected flavors that are at once powerful yet refined before culminating a very backward, concentrated and stunningly long finish that just goes on and on. This is exceptionally promising and should also live for decades. In a word, brilliant. |

Vinous (93-96)(just a single new 150-liter barrel of this wine, vinified with 50% whole clusters): Bright, dark red. Captivating aromas of raspberry, coffee, mocha and pistachio. Plush, dense and deep, conveying more saline minerality and deep soil tones than primary dark fruits in the early going. But this wine boasts compelling sweetness and finishes with dusty, thoroughly ripe tannins and outstanding length. (Incidentally, Faiveley will actually have two different bottlings of Musigny from the 2015 vintage as they purchased a tiny parcel of vines from the Dufouleur family just after the harvest of 2015. The new wine will be bottled in magnums, which Faiveley plans to open in 2025 as part of the family's 200th-anniversary festivities. Beginning with 2016, there will be a single estate Musigny consisting of about 600 bottles.) |

Vinous (94-96)(due to the tiny crop in 2016, Faiveley blended its two plots to make three-quarters of a barrel of wine; vinified with 50% whole clusters): Bright, dark red-ruby. Musky, smoky, reduced nose. Then wonderfully silky and rich on the palate, with its flavors of dark chocolate, black tea and cocoa powder conveying a powerful terroir character. Today the wine's fruit is in the deep background, yet this smoky, chocolatey Musigny conveys great breed. Not a wine, but a tasting experience for the connoisseur, says Jérôme Flous. Today I prefer the two Clos de Bèze cuvées and the Clos des Cortons for their pure fruit intensity. (Incidentally the 2015 Musigny Joseph Faiveley, made from Faiveley's recent purchase of a tiny parcel of vines from the Dufouleur family, was bottled in magnums.) |

Vinous (95-97)The 2017 Musigny Grand Cru comprises a blend of the original parcel and the new postage-stamp-sized acquisition between de Vogüé and Roumier. Erwan Faiveley said that his father enjoyed tannic wines and that his only exception was Musigny - because it was so small, it was the only wine vinified using gravity. There is quite a hefty reduction on the nose that makes this difficult to read. The palate, though, is pure class, with filigreed tannin, wonderful focus, firm grip and a very mineral-driven finish. Outstanding. |

Tim Atkin MW (97)Chocolate, cassis, black plums and pine needles... the list of aromatics goes on and on. This is dense in flavor yet buoyed by crackling acidity. It is complex and long, yet it is approachable as it is cerebral. The tannins stay silky smooth through the dreamy, long finish. This is aged entirely in "Musignettes", or 60-liter mini barrels hand-crafted for Faiveley by Fran ois Fr res. 2023-44 |

Vinous (96-98)The 2021 Musigny Grand Cru has a quite bewitching nose with pixelated red berry fruit, crushed limestone, freshly picked rose petals and the sense of whole bunches that is not immediately discernible but you can tell its guiding the background. The palate is harmonious and exquisitely balanced, perfect acidity, in some ways classic in style but there is enormous length and grace befitting this vineyard. Outstanding. |

Burghound (91-93)A ripe and brooding nose offers up notes of both red and dark currant, raspberry and a really lovely array of floral elements. The mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavors is at once finer and more delineated though notably less concentrated and powerful while the lingering and equally firmly structured finish possesses a different texture as the 100% whole cluster vinification is more obvious. Good stuff here as well in a built-to-age style. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2017 Musigny Grand Cru comprises a blend of the original parcel and the new postage-stamp-sized acquisition between de Vogüé and Roumier. Erwan Faiveley said that his father enjoyed tannic wines and that his only exception was Musigny - because it was so small, it was the only wine vinified using gravity. There is quite a hefty reduction on the nose that makes this difficult to read. The palate, though, is pure class, with filigreed tannin, wonderful focus, firm grip and a very mineral-driven finish. Outstanding. |

Tim Atkin MW (97)Chocolate, cassis, black plums and pine needles... the list of aromatics goes on and on. This is dense in flavor yet buoyed by crackling acidity. It is complex and long, yet it is approachable as it is cerebral. The tannins stay silky smooth through the dreamy, long finish. This is aged entirely in "Musignettes", or 60-liter mini barrels hand-crafted for Faiveley by Fran ois Fr res. 2023-44 |

Vinous (96-98)The 2021 Musigny Grand Cru has a quite bewitching nose with pixelated red berry fruit, crushed limestone, freshly picked rose petals and the sense of whole bunches that is not immediately discernible but you can tell its guiding the background. The palate is harmonious and exquisitely balanced, perfect acidity, in some ways classic in style but there is enormous length and grace befitting this vineyard. Outstanding. |

Burghound (91-93)A ripe and brooding nose offers up notes of both red and dark currant, raspberry and a really lovely array of floral elements. The mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavors is at once finer and more delineated though notably less concentrated and powerful while the lingering and equally firmly structured finish possesses a different texture as the 100% whole cluster vinification is more obvious. Good stuff here as well in a built-to-age style. |

Burgundy is Pinot Noir’s spiritual home, and nowhere in the world better illustrates terroir than here. Two vineyards side by side result in wines with subtle yet intricate differences in structure and aromatic profile – and often not so subtle differences in price.
