Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90-92)The 2019 Les Hauts du Tertre is an alluring second wine. Deep on the palate, with striking depth and complexity, Les Hauts is absolutely delicious. The aromatics are especially present and give quite a bit of lift to the red berry fruit. This is one of the best editions I can remember tasting of Les Hauts du Tertre. My tasting with General Manager Alexander Van Beek and Estate Manager Lorenzo Pasquini was one of the highlights of several weeks of the Zoom calls all of us will remember from this very particular campaign. At du Tertre, Van Beek and Pasquini have overseen a major redevelopment of about 65% of the property in favor of higher density vineyards. The wines have at times been a bit light, especially in the mid-palate, but the 2019s are quite successful in that regard, in all regards actually. Cuvaison was 21 days at a cool 24 degrees Celcius. Eric Boissenot is the consulting oenologist. Needless to say, it will be fascinating to see what future vintages bring. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87-89)The 2021 Les Hauts du Tertre has a perfumed bouquet of blackberry and pencil box scents, nicely detailed and the oak neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied and very Médoc-like, with a peppery opening, good depth, just the right amount of dryness and a tobacco-infused finish. This is a perfectly capable Deuxième Vin to drink over 10 years after bottling. |

Vinous (91)The 2022 Beaune Les Prévolles comes from one-third of their own parcels and the rest from a neighbor's plot that is worked by Catharina Sadde and is populated with older vines prone to millerandage. This contains 80% whole bunches (less in 2023) with 20m/g of free SO2. The perfumed nose shows slightly darker fruit than other cuvées, with raspberry, blackberry leaf and a briar hint. The palate is medium-bodied with fine structure, a fine line of acidity and a little tension towards the finish. Excellent. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96)The old vines cuvee is the 2016 Gigondas Les Racines and comes from the oldest vines of the estate located around the domaine. The soils here lie around 200-300 feet in elevation and are a mix of broken limestone and clay, and the resulting wine is always blacker fruited, dense, and concentrated. Blackcurrants, black olives, exotic spices, and crushed rock notes all flow to a powerful, concentrated, tannic Gigondas that has remarkable purity and elegance. It shows the balance and freshness, as well as richness, that makes this vintage so compelling, and while it needs 2-3 years of bottle age, it's a profound, sensationally complex, layered wine readers shouldn't miss! |
