Cask sample. Mid garnet – rather dull colour actually. Rather sweaty nose and then complexity on the palate – complexity that is rare in 2023s at this stage. Quite a bit of chew and this is obviously a baby. Sweet and chewy and still just a collection of elements.

This is very classy. Deep with beautiful concentration- but not too tight. Really good feel. Some dark edges will need patience and a cool dark cellar, but this has great detail and aromatics and proper smart lines and lift. All here just needs time to piece together properly.L&S (Nov 2024)
This is a standout Clos de Bèze with a sumptuous nose, dense layers of ripe fruit and an exorbitantly long finish. Strawberry preserves, cherry cobbler, fresh oak spice and a touch of mocha offer a profusion of flavor on the palate. Riveting in complexity and grandiose in class. Part of the domaine since the 1930s, the oldest vines here are now from 1949. Rating: 97 Tim Atkin MW, www.timatkin.com (Jan 2025)
(from a 1.29 ha parcel). This is also firmly reduced and revealing nothing but a tinge of spiciness. Once again the caressing and seductive mouthfeel of the medium weight flavors is striking thanks to the finegrained tannins that shape the wonderfully complex and impeccably well-balanced finale. I particularly like the inner mouth perfume that only adds to the appeal of this very classy effort. Drinking range: 2035 - Rating: 92-95 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2025)
