Vinous (93+)(the crop level in these north-facing vines in Combe d'Orveaux was just 22 hectoliters per hectare): Bright dark red. Pungent, sappy aromas of raspberry and smoky minerality. Dense, sweet and tactile, with its highly concentrated berry flavors enriched by salty mineral extract. Offers terrific inner-mouth tension and lift. Still a baby, but its very long, firmly tannic finish avoids dryness. As youthful as this is, it's more expressive in the middle palate than the 2015 Grands-Echézeaux or Clos Vougeot. |

Vinous (96)The 2015 Grands-Echézeaux Grand Cru seems to be entering an awkward stage. There is sufficient brambly red fruit on the nose and some stem addition underneath, although these components have not yet fully knitted together. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, and here there is a much greater sense of harmony. The acidity is very well judged, exerting pleasing grip toward the structured finish. This a wine where your initial reservations dissipate as the quality becomes apparent, though it will require several years in bottle. Chapeau, winemaker Michel Mallard! Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. |

Wine Advocate (94)Tasted blind, the 2015 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brûlées also put in a superb performance, unfurling in the glass with an attractive bouquet of ripe red berries, incense and candied peel, framed by a touch of light reduction that segues into sapid bass notes of smoked duck. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, lavish and multidimensional, with supple tannins, a dramatic core of fruit and succulent underlying acids. This is a very promising Brûlées from Domaine d'Eugénie. |
