Product Description
90 points Allen Meadows - Burghound
"(75+ year old vines). This too is a very ripe wine in the context of the 2017 vintage with its lightly wooded nose of plum, spice, earth and forest floor. As usual, there is more power and mid-palate concentration to the sappy medium-bodied flavors that also exude a discreet minerality onto the more complex and slightly more structured finale. As it usually is, this is an excellent Gevrey villages and well worth your interest."
Jancis Robinson
"60% whole bunch, more new oak than on the straight village wine. Vines 60+ years old though some vines have been replaced, some will soon be celebrating their centenary. More marl on this site and more power and tannin. Clos Prieur premier cru parcel is included here.
Dark and spicy on the nose, very Gevrey. Elegant and refined, the tannins have power but also precision. Tight and so fine, so fine. Subtle, savoury beauty in its dark, shaded character. 17/20 points. (JH)"
