Vinous (89-91)(picked on September 12): Dark red. Raspberry, minerals and smoked meat on the nose. Plush, silky and very ripe, although a bit lacking in definition and lift. Much smokier than the Etelois, this plush village wine finishes with building tannins. |

Vinous (89-92)(14% natural alcohol; these vines, ranging in age from 55 to 80 years, produced just half of a normal crop in 2016, according to winemaker Mark Fincham): Bright, dark red. Somewhat wild scents of black raspberry, smoke, black olive and minerals. Dense, juicy and youthfully imploded, with its tight dark fruit and rose petal flavors conveying a strong impression of energy. Not currently displaying the give of the Etelois, this wine finishes with a hint of game and slightly dusty tannins. Fincham likes this better than I do today, but it should benefit from a racking. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (89-91)From En la Poulotte (Couchey) and the better-known Les Longeroies, half and half. Mid ruby colour. The nose offers a very elegant floral pinot, there being a proportion of whole bunches. Lifted with light cherry fruit and a touch of orange zest. Given the lightness of tread of this Marsannay, there is delicious persistence. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Nov 2024. |

Vinous (88-91)(25% vendange entier; aging in 30% new oak; made from what Thomas Dinel described as a full crop, this wine had already been racked once by the time of my visit): Medium red. Slightly reduced aromas of strawberry, white pepper, herbs and toast. A rather, delicate, light style with sexy spices and a touch of sweetness but only modest force. Finishes with easygoing tannins and a touch of dryness. Attractive, aromatic wine if a bit lacking in stuffing. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis Clos des Ormes 1er Cru is 25% whole clusters, matured in 35% new oak. It has a floral bouquet of bright red fruit infused with wilted rose petals. The palate is well balanced, displaying crisp acidity, fleshy ripe tannin and vibrant red fruit, and hints of brown spice on the finish. A Morey designed to give pleasure. Not long-term, but quite delicious. |

It has a more powerful bouquet compared to the Clos des Ormes, although it does not exude the same mineralité or finesse. On the other hand, the palate is very well balanced and seems to have more depth and precision than the Clos des Ormes, leading to a compelling mineral-driven, saline finish that lingers for 45+ seconds. Superb. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2020 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru, which includes 50% whole bunch, works much better on the nose compared to the Clos des Ormes with detailed raspberry, cranberry and briary scents, the absence of new oak an assiduous decision. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine definition, fine grip with a lively, tensile finish. Very fine and it disguises the 14.6° alcohol pretty well thanks to the low pH. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2021 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru, like the Clos des Ormes, was a little muted on the nose when tasted from barrel. It opens almost reluctantly with orange zest scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grip, more body than the Clos des Ormes with a broad-shouldered but balanced finish. Give this some time in bottle. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)5 star. New in 2019 and a great success this year. “Our baby Clos de la Roche” they think. Dark colour but the bouquet shows how well balanced this is. Beautifully perfumed, floral even. 80% whole bunch, one new barrel in three. This is really lovely just to sniff at. Much more power behind than I expected, with really fresh lifted dark red fruit and some minerals. Long finish. A real star in this cellar. Tasted: November 2021 |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)Maison. One barrel, one year old wood. 80% whole bunch. Clear fresh mid purple. Superb energy from the fruit on the nose, with the oak relegated to the background. Undemonstrative yet fine, not the weightiest Murgers but the essentials of the vineyard are there and the finish is long. |

Burghound (88-91)(this comes mostly from the Vosne side of the commune and in particular from Aux Allots, Les Lavières, Les Argillats, Aux St. Julien, Petite Charmotte and les Herbues plus Plantes au Baron in Prémeaux). A subtle but not imperceptible application of wood can be found on the red berry and earth aromas that display a note of crushed herbs. Despite not being particularly dense, the middle weight flavors exhibit good power on the austere, firm and serious finale. This is very Nuits in style and a wine that’s going to require at least some patience. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-93)Though the grapes are purchased, the Marchand-Tawse team are responsible for the viticulture here, so it is effectively but not officially a domaine wine. Picked late in the piece, on 24th September, and vinified with 60% whole bunches, the Petite Charmotte is still in barrel with 30% new. A pretty pink ruby colour, extremely cheerful bouquet, whole bunch on the later picked fruit seems to have worked well. White pepper at the finish. Nothing forced, very harmonious, a little darker fruit but classy. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted Nov 2024. |

Unveiling the exquisite elegance of the Marchand & Tawse Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Perrieres 2021, a stellar Burgundian gem hailing from the esteemed Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation. Produced by Pascal Marchand and Moray Tawse, two well-established vignerons of French-Canadian origin, this wine is a testament to the dynamic synergy of tradition and innovation.

This opulent Pinot Noir boasts intense aromas and flavours of ripe red fruits coupled with earthy nuances, upheld by a firm, integrated tannic structure. Beautifully balanced, it marries complexity with depth of flavour, resulting in a truly memorable drinking experience. A bottle of Marchand & Tawse Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Perrieres 2021 is a prized addition to any wine collection. |
