At the heart of Burgundy's prestige lie its renowned vineyards, which have garnered global acclaim for their exceptional wines. The names that resonate in the world of Burgundy are Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Domaine Leroy, Domaine Armand Rousseau, and Domaine Georges Roumier. These vineyards have become synonymous with greatness, crafting wines that define elegance, complexity, and longevity.

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)Blended from the domaine’s three plots. The 2020 Echezeaux displays a royal purple colour of great intensity. The nose currently shows a minor reduction, but there is such intensity behind. At the moment, prior to racking, the texture has a rich thick tarry nature but I believe that this wine will turn out really well in due course thanks to the returning elegance of the fruit at the finish.

Vinous (89)The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru is lucid purple in colour. It has a high-toned nose with plenty of blue fruit, maraschino cherries and a potent floral aspect that obscures the terroir. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy tannins, fine weight yet missing some backbone. It lacks freshness and brightness on the finish, like one or two others, erring dangerously close to Grenache-like in style. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2017 Savigny-lès-Beaune Aux Guettes 1er Cru offers more terroir expression and complexity than the Les Serpentières at the moment. This is very detailed, displaying touches of graphite filtering through the black fruit. The palate is very well balanced with a fine line of acidity. A little compact now, but there is a sense of symmetry toward the finish that is compelling. This comes highly recommended. |

Burghound (94)Sweet spot Outstanding. This is at once the spiciest and the most floral-suffused nose in the range with its ripe yet ultra-fresh nose of various dark berries, anise and newly turned earth scents. The mouthfeel is also intriguing as it combines excellent density with an appealing sleekness that carries over to the mineral-driven, powerful and compact finale that is wonderfully persistent if very clearly built-to-age. This is almost always Pavelot's best wine and it is highly likely to be so in 2022 as well. |
