Jancis Robinson (18)Cask sample. Rich and sweet – and much more forward than the village Vosne! Layers and neatness. Good intensity and this should have a long and rather glorious life ahead. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru is the only cuvée with whole bunch, around 25% this year. It comes from two parcels that are always picked on the same day and matured in 60% new oak with a very light toasting. Brambly red fruit, wild hedgerow and briary on the nose that (again) blossoms with aeration whilst maintaining outstanding focus. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine acidity, taut and fresh with a bit of sinew on the finish, a bit of grip. So give this 5-8 years in bottle. |

Burghound (92)(the blend has now changed from 50/50 to two-thirds/one-third in the climats of Les Rouges du Bas and Les Quartiers de Nuits; 15% whole cluster vinification). A slightly cooler though still ripe nose blends notes of both red and dark berries and a wonderful array of spice elements. There is excellent verve and freshness on the palate of the sleek, refined and focused medium-bodied flavors that aren’t especially dense but do flash focused power on the dusty, compact and serious finale where a touch of warmth slowly emerges. Fine if not exceptional development potential here and I particularly like the sophisticated texture. |

Harmoniously embodying Burgundy's distinctive terroir, the exceptional Mugneret Gibourg Nuits-Saint-Georges Bas Combe 2020 demonstrates the laudable viticultural mastery of the eponymous producer. A distinct product of the Nuits-Saint-Georges Bas Combe vineyard situated in the heart of the Côte de Nuits, this titillating red boasts layers of meticulously structured complexity crafted with judicious traditional winemaking methods. Mugneret Gibourg's attentive cultivation and natural fermentation process bequeath the wine with nuances of rich, ripe fruit delicately interwoven with subtle earthy undertones. The 2020 vintage, a year renowned for its splendid growing conditions, amplifies the wine's vibrant character and unparalleled elegance. Post fermentation, the wine is aged in French oak barrels, adding an indulgent woody note and enhancing overall palate complexity. The Mugneret Gibourg Nuits-Saint-Georges Bas Combe 2020 stands as a tantalising testament to the remarkable clout of refined Burgundian wine production. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (92-94)Bright, deep red. Tangy red cherry and raspberry aromas are complicated by high-pitched spices, flowers and crushed rock. Sweet, bright and penetrating, but with good supple density giving a seamless texture to the middle palate. In fact, this is quite creamy for the vintage, in spite of its brisk acidity. Spreads out nicely to coat the mouth on the long, perfumed, gripping aftertaste. A terrific vintage for this cuvee. |
