Vinous (93)The 2019 Volnay Champans 1er Cru comes from a young parcel planted 33 years ago. It has a very well defined bouquet with predominantly red berry fruit, laced with briary and crushed stone, later a touch of rose petal. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, the same structure as the Santenots, perhaps with a little more spiciness and edge. Again, superb length and precision here. Excellent. |

It has a ripe blueberry and red cherry-scented bouquet that is quite intense. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet, quite candied entry, fine acidity, quite primal and certainly very juicy. It maybe just needs a little more backbone and grip on the finish. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)4 barrels made, about one third below the normal. Deep black purple, a rich sensuality to the nose, very promising. There is a solid core of rich dense cherry, with a firmer more tannic background, but in balance with the density of the fruit. Definitely a wine to put away for rather longer (10+ years) Worth waiting for. Tasted: November 2021 |

Vinous (93)From the 32-year-old vines, the 2019 Volnay Clos des Chênes 1er Cru has the most backward and recalcitrant nose of Bouley’s Volnays, though well defined and focused. The palate is grippy on the entry with superb precision. It reminds me of Lafarge albeit with darker fruit towards the finish. Excellent. |

It is fruit forward upfront, with pure cherry fruit, balsamic, and black tea with classically structured tannins and acidity that lifts off the palate and a long finish. It was aged for 6 months in tonneaux followed by two years in large barrels. Cellar 2-4 years and enjoy 2024-2036. |

Vinous (96+)Deep, bright ruby. Extraordinarily complex, lively nose combines black raspberry, bitter chocolate, nutmeg and an intriguing suggestion of roasted herbs. Amazingly rich and smooth in the mouth; truly explosive fruit offers superb vinosity and snap. Like liquid velvet but with great clarity of flavor. Builds in intensity and seems to grow thicker on the back half. The huge finishing fruit coats the entire palate. Amazing juice. |

Wine Advocate (98)The 2006 Pingus is a spectacular effort. A glass-staining saturated opaque purple, it delivers an other-worldly perfume of smoke, lavender, mineral, scorched earth, and an amalgam of kinky black fruits. Voluptuous on the palate in a measured way, it has superb balance, layered, complex flavors, ripe tannin that is entirely covered by the fruit, and a decade of aging potential. This monumental wine will evolve effortlessly for 10-15 years and offer a drinking window extending from 2016 to 2036. |

Decanter (99)I tried this wine first at the time of release and it shocked me. Classic Pingus, oaky and muscular, was transformed into a jewel of infinite delicacy, with a pure and precise fruit expression, fine-grained tannins (not a hint of oak tannins), joyously open on the finish. Ten years later, the wine has gained in complexity, while keeping a youthful profile and extending its already persistent finish. I am sure that it will continue to reach new heights, but I couldn't be able to refrain from drinking it now if I could. The satin of Burgundy and the fine detailing of Bordeaux, all in one wine. |

Wine Advocate (95)As with all the 2011s, the 2011 Pingus is riper, with never-seen-before alcohol levels (15.5%), but the wine feels extremely balanced. As usual, the highly-selected grapes were fermented in 2,000-liter oak vats with indigenous yeasts and aged for 22 months in second-and third-fill barrels. It is ripe and exuberant, with notes of violets, spices (curry!), smoky peat and umami-like meat-broth aromas. The palate is full-bodied, glyceric with sophisticated tannins, but plenty of them, so they need to calm down a little. I believe there will be a lot of people who will really love this 2011, it's showy and exuberant. 6,000 bottles produced. Drink 2016-2020. |
