Vinous (95-97)The 2018 Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru comes from two parcels of 45- and 80-year-old vines on much stonier soils than the Charmes-Chambertin. This has a knockout nose of brambly black fruit, cassis and crushed stone aromas that gain intensity with every swirl of the glass. The palate is silky-smooth on the entry and very precise and focused, with great tension toward the shimmering vintage. This is definitely one of the best Mazoyères-Chambertins I have tasted in over ten years of coming to this domaine. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru contains 60% whole bunches. It comes from three plots that, still, only made two and a half barrels this year. It has a very well defined bouquet that seems to blossom in the glass, although it will need some time for the stems to be assimilated. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, very peppery in style with touches of white pepper and bay leaf towards the persistent finish. This is a classy wine, one that is not unlike Dujac’s Echézeaux! |

Burghound (90-93)(Outstanding) A deft application of wood can be found on the similar if earthier aromas where the earth is also present on the cool, pure and more mineral-driven middleweight flavors that are mouthcoating and succulent but powerful and serious on the moderately austere and sneaky long finale. Irrespective of what the label says, this is marvelous for its level. |

Burghound (93-96)Don't Miss! A more restrained, and more deeply pitched nose, grudgingly reveals its aromas of plum, black cherry, anise and a broad array of floral elements, in particular violet. The more mineral-driven middleweight flavors possess a lacy but punchy mouthfeel before concluding in a more overtly austere, serious and structured finale. Patience absolutely required if you wish to see this stunning effort at its peak. One of the best wines of the 2021 vintage. |

Wine Advocate (91)The 2016 Vosne-Romanée Village wafts from the glass with aromas of exotic spices, blood orange, cherries and peonies. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, satiny and intensely concentrated, with a sapid and almost pungently intense core of fruit, succulent acids and melting tannins, concluding with a long, savory finish.

This is an absolutely gorgeous, striking wine endowed with extraordinary textural finesse and elegance. Sweet, perfumed notes caress the palate on the rich, resonant finish.
