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. |

Burghound (91-93)(from vines in Lo chausses planted in 1989 and 1995 along with a small amount of Ech zeaux du Dessus). Discreet wood frames fresh and layered aromas of red and dark currant, floral and anise whiffs. The supple, delicious and energetic medium-bodied flavors possess excellent depth on the balanced, focused and sneaky long finale. (91-93)/2032+ |

Vinous (94)Dark cherries, plums, spices, menthol and licorice are some of the many notes that are woven together in the 2009 Grands- Echézeaux. I very much like the depth and intensity of the fruit. Today the 2009 appears to be holding much of its ultimate potential in reserve. Ideally the wine needs a few more years to flesh out. The fragrant, silky finish leaves me quite hopeful for the future. |

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 2009 Richebourg blossoms in every direction with seemingly endless layers of flavor. An exotic melange of plums, red cherries, flowers and mint starts to take shape as the wine opens up in the glass. There is a pure radiance to the 2009 that is impossible to miss. At the same time, the firm Richebourg tannins keep everything in check. Higher-toned notes develop in the glass, balancing some of the wine’s more virile tendencies. The 2009 remains a bit of a brute and definitely needs further bottle age. This is going to be a fascinating wine to follow. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2034. |

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. |
