Vibrant ripe purple. There is gentle graceful fruit on the nose then an easy going opulent fruit up front which builds beautifully behind. This is a plump and less savoury style of Gevrey-Chambertin.

(94-97 points) Gorgeous deep fresh yellow, picked on 28th August, 13.85% already, it was time to do it! Very high-class nose, full of complex options. Benjamin didn’t like the new wood component so quickly took it out...

Macerated cherry, wild strawberry and mineral aromas and flavors highlight this taut, racy red. As this builds to a long conclusion, the intensity, fat and silky texture emerge, only to be challenged by solid grip on the...

Sourced from Pierre Damoy's holdings and picked towards the end of the harvest, this is a correspondingly ripe, rich, concentrated grand cru with masses of colour and power, layers of red and black fruits, sinewy tannins...

This is as cool and restrained as the Clos St. Jacques though the nose is a good deal spicier and more complex with its mélange of floral, pomegranate, tobacco and broad range of red berry fruit scents. There is a really...

(96-98 points) Fine bright purple. A beautifully harmonious bouquet and absolutely no sign of the whole bunches here, unlike Cazetiers. Perfectly structured, I put this well ahead of its neighbour, Cazetiers, in 2020. I...

(90-93 points) The ruby-colored 1997 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St. Jacques has a floral, black/red berry-scented nose. This silky-textured, medium-to-full-bodied, broad, complex, and expansive offering is flavored with jammy...

(92-94 points) A deft application of wood frames ripe, pure and airy aromas that are classic Gevrey with a broad array of floral, wild red berry fruit, earth, humus and a hint of the sauvage. The broad-shouldered and...

(93-96 points) Entirely destemmed in contrast to the Arnaud Mortet label of Lavaux. 70% new wood. A lively glowing purple with a very exuberant nose. Perfume and some fresh oak, typical of the cooler sites which really...

(BH91-94 points) Here too the cassis, violet, plus and earth aromas are distinctly cool and elegant. There is excellent richness and volume to the impressively well-concentrated medium-bodied flavors that exude ample...

Offering up aromas of cherries, sweet berries, petals, vine smoke and spices, the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes is medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, its fleshy core of fruit underpinned by sweet tannins...

Additional élevage has brought a further degree of elegance to the 2020 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru that I didn't perceive last year. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, incense, licorice, forest floor and...

A massive wine with black fruit and an imposing structure, plenty of depth, and impressive persistence on the palate. Although this is muscular, it is perfectly balanced. The Mazoyères from Dugat-Py is unlike any other...

A rich, powerful version, backed by flashy oak and beefy tannins that sandwich the flavors of black cherry, blackberry, licorice, iron and tobacco. Concentrated, yet vibrant and long. Best from 2024 through 2050. — B.S.

(94-97 points) Once again moderately prominent wood still allows the overtly spicy and floral-inflected dark currant, black cherry and discreet earth nuances to be appreciated. The mid-palate of the broad-shouldered...
