A mentholated top note is present on the notably spicy aromas of poached plum, black raspberry and warm earth. Once again, the palate impression of the medium weight flavors is supple and pliant yet there is good...

Broad and rich, this red delivers black cherry, blackberry, earth and iron flavors, all framed by sweet spices. Supple and fluid, with a lively feel on the finish. Shows fine harmony and length. Best from 2027 through...

(91-93 points) An exuberantly floral-suffused nose speaks mainly of spicy red and dark pinot fruit scents. The middleweight flavors are not especially dense but they possess a positively gorgeous texture that is at once...

The 2020 Pommard Jarollières 1er Cru has a refined bouquet with redcurrant, raspberry, tobacco and cedar, quite classic in style. The palate is well-balanced with good depth. There is more black fruit in the mix here...

While the nose is compositionally similar to the Bressandes, it's not quite as fresh though it is slightly spicier. There is both good refinement and power to the delicious, delineated and subtly mineral-inflected flavors...

Packed with fruit as well as rich wood and smoke flavors, this wine is still young but has potential. Ripe berry fruits will come together well as the wine moves into the next stage. Drink from 2023. ROGER VOSS

(91-93 points) The 2022 Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Champs Chevreys 1er Cru, matured in 30% new oak, offers pure red cherries and cranberry fruit on the nose, perhaps more sensual in a way compared to the Les Gravières, with a...

A supple red, with core flavors of cherry, raspberry and plum fruit shaded by vanilla, sweet spices and a vegetal note. Firms up, with chalky tannins marking the vibrant finish. Best from 2025 through 2036. - B.S.

Gentle red-fruit notes have the slightest sheen of vanilla on this wine's nose. The palate offers the full-fruited intensity of ripe cherry, propelled by vivid freshness. A touch of heat and mocha play on the finish. —...

The 2019 Pommard Les Rugiens 1er Cru has a much fresher bouquet than Olivier Leflaive's Epenots (tasted alongside), with a finely-delineated mixture of red and black fruit, undergrowth and light smoky scents. The palate...

Pure cherry is the calling card of this juicy, linear red. Currant, strawberry and oak spice play supporting roles, backed by vibrant acidity. Fruit and spice persist on the finish. Drink now through 2027. 1,200 cases...

(90-92 points) The 2020 Beaune Montreveneaux 1er Cru is composed and focused, the oak neatly integrated here (20%), touches of undergrowth coming through. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, crisp acidity...

(93+ points) Wafting from the glass with aromas of wild berries, violets, sweet spices, loamy soil and roses, the 2020 Pommard 1er Cru Epenots is medium to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with a concentrated...

This is certainly one of the more concentrated Volnays of the vintage, but the richness and plummy, mulberry fruity concentration is balanced by some freshness and spice from 30% whole bunches. The acidity comes through...

A gamy rustic nose is present with the austerity of iodine atop red fruit and roses. Initially soft tannins reveal themselves to be rougher with time. With such power, development with bottle aging until 2028 will help...

A domaine wine, Bouchard farms this on their 8.77 acres on the east face of the Corton hill. The hot, dry vintage played into that exposition toward the morning sun, yielding a wine with notes of licorice amped up in...

The 2020 Le Corton Grand Cru has an open-knit bouquet, possibly with some stem addition, slightly tertiary red fruit with a light loamy element that emerges with time in the glass. This has real complexity and terroir...
