Burghound (93)A pungent nose of reduction and subtle wood makes clear that it is clear need of a thorough aeration if you're going to open a bottle young in the interest of 'science'. The succulent but solidly punchy medium weight plus flavors terminate in a moderately austere, compact and focused finale that delivers both fine depth and persistence. This is really quite good though like the Ech, a wine built for long-term cellaring. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru offers more red fruit than the Echézeaux, a bit disjointed at the moment although it should meld together with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit and a fine bead of acidity. Just a slightly lactic note detracts from the delineation on the finish. Drink over the next decade. |

Vinous (89-91)The 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru, aged 50% in new oak, offers brambly dark red fruit, a subtle peppery note that might deceive into think there was some stem addition. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly raw entry. There is a hint of vegetive element here, though not unpleasant, quite firm tannins and just missing a bit of flair on the finish. |

Wine Advocate (90)Bernard Gros makes an interesting wine that is usually very sweet and perfumed, smelling almost too much of cherry and cassis. The Richebourg tastes highly chaptalized. It is quite sweet, but the level of fruit extract in the wine is amazing. The cherry and cassis flavors are remarkably vivid, as is the concentration of the wine. |

Wine Advocate (95)The 2008 Richebourg flows with terrific intensity and juiciness in a style that remains on the delicate, floral side for this vineyard. The fruit wraps around the palate with notable persistence and grip all the way through to the finish. This is another classy effort from Bernard Gros. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2033. |

Burghound (91-94)(from a .7 ha parcel that was partially replanted in 1985 and the remainder in 1989). Here the wood influence is very subtle and easily allows the fresh, ripe and pretty aromas of pure red berries, jasmine tea, hoisin and anise. The delicious and vibrant if less concentrated medium weight flavors possess a lovely inner mouth perfume while exhibiting good length on the slightly edgy finale. I suspect that the edginess will round out with time in bottle. (91-94)/2032+ |

Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Richebourg Grand Cru, matured with 50% new oak, has quite a flattering bouquet with black plum, bilberry, and a pinch of white pepper, though it doesn't deliver the complexity you would find in a great growing season. The palate is medium-bodied with pretty firm tannins, slightly peppery. Like the Grands Echézeaux, it just seems content to tread water in the second half, rather than building on its opening. There is (again) a fairly bitter finish. |
