Decanter (96)
The Durochés' 0.4ha in Charmes-Chambertin are split between five different parcels, which is all too common in the grands crus. But what a charming wine they have produced, all summer berry and rose petal perfume, lacy tannins, bright minerality and a fine, focussed finish.Inc. VAT£529.19 -
Decanter (97)
Sourced from what Burgundians often call 'Charmes-Charmes' to distinguish it from the Mazoyères part of this extensive Grand Cru, this cuvée uses fruit from five different parcels, all but one of which is 40 years' old. Floral and intense, with 20% whole bunches adding some freshness and spice, this is a serious, well-upholstered Pinot Noir showing fine tannins and appealingly understated oak.Inc. VAT£264.12 -

The 2019 Chambertin Grand Cru, under the négoce label, is a debut release from just 500 square meters of ancient vine acquired from a distant relative of the family; Pierre Duroché manages the vineyard and harvests the crop. This is aged in one new 150-liter barrel. It has a really entrancing bouquet that soars from the glass, offering pure red cherries, crushed strawberry, minerals and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, filigreed tannins. There is an unerring symmetry about this Chambertin, which is one of the best you will find in 2019. The persistence is astounding, though that is partially driven by the new wood. This will be fascinating to taste in bottle.Inc. VAT£1,952.76 -
Vinous (96-98)
The 2020 Chambertin Grand Cru, from vines planted in 1934, has a little more depth and complexity than the Clos-de-Beze. Finely chiselled red cherries, wild strawberry and limestone scents unfurl in the glass. The palate is beautifully balanced, again, very silky and harmonious with a touch of more sapidity evident towards the finish. This has real class and pedigree here, this is an exceptional wine that will surely be highly sought-after.Inc. VAT£383.99 -

The 2021 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, which includes 15% whole bunches, is precise and detailed on the nose with raspberry and wild strawberry, iris flower and notes of chalk dust. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, fleshy and generous, not complex per se but sensual on the finish. This will be difficult to resist in its youth.Inc. VAT£337.19 -
(3x75cl) 2023Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)
The Durochés have two plots by Griotte-Chambertin, on very limestone soil, and two small alluvial plots in lower Charmes close to Mazoyères, all fermented together. Dense mid purple, there is more concentration here, plenty of charming fruit up front but with more backbone than sometimes. Fine balance between fruit, tannin and acidity, with a clean long finish where the fruit keeps growing. Some eggs in use as well as barrels here. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted Nov 2024.Expected Price Range£1,080 - £1,320 -
(1x75cl) 2020Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (97-100)
5 Star Wine. This special cuvée is a one-off to celebrate the centenary of the vineyard which was bought by Pierre’s grandfather who was born in 1920. Fine very dark purple. The bouquet goes well beyond the regular version. There is complete harmony with nothing lost in the micro vinification. Despite the colour, despite the weight, this is an entirely red fruit wine at perfectly judged ripeness. Immaculate.Inc. VAT£4,872.80 -

The 2015 Gevrey Chambertin Aux Etelois (from a triangle of vines nestled between Griotte-Chambertin and Charmes-Chambertin but classified as merely Gevrey-Chambertin AOC) bursts with notes of Griotte cherry, strawberry, wood smoke and sweet spices. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with more tension and chalky grip than the Les Jeunes Rois, despite its velvety attack, and a deep core of crunchy fruit.Inc. VAT£1,557.20 -

The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has certainly stepped up in intensity since I last tasted it. Redcurrant, cranberry, juniper berries and just a touch of mint, fine delineation with fine focus. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, perfectly judged acidity, a touch of allspice and white pepper, fanning out gloriously on the expansive finish. Time to raise my previous score. Tasted at Domaine Duroché.Inc. VAT£2,480.66 -

The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaut Saint-Jacques Vieilles Vignes is once again one of the highlights of the range, offering up a deep and complex bouquet of wild berries, plums and sweet soil tones, complemented by top notes of spices, rose petals and bergamot. Medium to full-bodied, multidimensional and muscular, it's textural and concentrated, with lively acids, beautifully refined tannins and a long, resonant finish.Inc. VAT£237.72 -

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a beguiling, tertiary, wet limestone tinged bouquet with precise red berry fruit and touches of bay leaf. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, quite saline in the mouth, building towards a lightly spiced, tensile finish that lingers. Wonderful.Inc. VAT£719.96 -
(1x150cl) 2021Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-94)
A fine even crimson colour. A little more muscle on the nose, moving away from the floral notes. Good acidity, a little mineral tension, not massive at all but fine, with some subtlety to the fruit on the palate. Alpine strawberries here. Drink from 2026-2031.Inc. VAT£719.45 -
Decanter (95)
Duroché has two cuvées of Lavaut; Pierre takes enough of the oldest vines (planted in 1923) to cull out a single barrel for a 'Vieilles Vignes' cuvée. If you can't find that, this wine will do nicely with its dark blackberry fruit and floral notes, silky texture, refreshingly crisp freshness, and tannic grip. This delicious wine should show well shortly after release but can undoubtedly be cellared for a decade or more if you can avoid drinking it now.Inc. VAT£2,593.49 -
(3x75cl) 2023Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-94)
Lavaut-St-Jacques was not the last to be picked for once, to avoid flétri (wrinkled skins) which was threatening, and it certainly comes across as quite ripe. Mid purple. The bouquet takes a little searching out, then sensual red and black fruit across the palate. Not ultra concentrated but quite fine. Drink from 2029-2036. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. VAT£766.37 -
(1x75cl) 2015Wine Advocate (87-89)
The 2015 Gevrey Chambertin Village has a more controlled, less feisty and better behaved bouquet than the Bourgogne Rouge. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity that cuts through the dark cherry and cassis fruit. There is plenty of sucrosity here, but that does not seem to take the edge of the finish that demonstrates good persistence. Even though this is just a village cru I recommend giving this 2-3 years in bottle.Inc. VAT£128.00 -
Wine Advocate (88-90)
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Village is a blend of a parcel from the north of the village of Gevrey, a parcel in Aux Etelois that is not selected for that cuvée, and fruit from Pressonnnier. It felt open on the nose with raspberry preserve and crushed strawberry scents. The palate is nicely balanced, bright and pretty in the mouth with a keen line of acidity, then battening down the hatches toward the tightly coiled finish that will open by the time of bottling. There is good potential here, but it will require a couple of years in bottle.Inc. VAT£983.80 -

The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a slightly rustic, ferrous bouquet that needs to knit together during the remainder of its élevage. The palate conveys satisfying sapidity and steely tannins. The taut, brisk, stony finish disguises the warmth of the growing season. Superb winemaking on display here. This is Pierre Duroché’s largest cuvée at 57 barrels.Inc. VAT£107.99 -

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village, from the domaine, is completely destemmed and matured in 15% new oak. It displays a little more precision than its counterpart under the négociant label, ripe and nicely focused. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, a fleshy mouthfeel and a touch of piquancy on the finish. This should drink well for 5–7 years, possibly longer.Inc. VAT£96.80 -

This year the straight Gevrey-Chambertin includes Le Clos, Champ, En Vosne and 1er cru Champeaux. A fresh even ruby purple. The bouquet is a little more reserved than for the Bourgogne Rouge, but with a suggestion of greater depth. Now some fresh but sweet cherries start to come out. Very balanced and though accessible at first, the back of the palate delivers additional intensity which will take longer to emerge. A good balance with the tannins, and fine persistence. Just the right acidity. Drink from 2025-2030.Inc. VAT£1,340.30 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-93)
A substantial cuvée from multiple plots. Fresh bright purple. Concentrated raspberry and bilberry, good acidity, no more than medium bodied but still with energy, redcurrant and raspberry jam behind. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted: November 2023.Inc. VAT£679.09

The variations among Burgundy's many appellations and the importance of individual winemakers philosophy's make vintage guides complex. Vintage advantages can also differ slightly for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Nonetheless we have put together a selection of some of our favourite vintages from Burgundy.
