2025 Futures

See the technical sheet

Vinous (A. Galloni): 95-97/100 "The 2024 Canon is superb. One of the standouts of the vintage, the 2024 possesses striking mid-palate depth to match its vertical personality. Chalk, white pepper, mint, lavender, rose petal, slate and blue/purplish fruit all stain the palate. There's gorgeous depth and density here, and yet the 2024 remains a super-classic wine from the property. This is a real stunner. That's all there is to it."

Bettane & Desseauve : 95-96/100 « Arômes de fruits rouges tels que la framboise avec des notes florales (rose poivrée) qui se révèle progressivement. La texture veloutée est soutenue par des tannins élégants et énergiques. On aime ses nuances salines et sa finale longue et persistante. Grand style. »

J-M Quarin : 95/100 « Couleur sombre et intense. Nez un peu discret, au fruité frais et mûr. Délicat en entrée de bouche, particulièrement aérien au milieu, avec du goût et de la classe dans le toucher, le vin finit long, ascendant et savoureux, avec une touche suave dans la persistance. »

Le Point : 17/20 « Fruité pur, baies sauvages, nez frais, ronce, bouche tonique, tanins savoureux, touche acidulée, élevage équilibré. Vin tendu et élégant. »

La Revue du Vin de France : 93-95/100 « Un vin d'un grand raffinement ! 2024 s'inscrit dans le plus pur style de Canon : la fraîcheur du millésime épouse avec brio l'identité du plateau calcaire du cru. Les nuances florales, fraîches, de fruits rouges, animent une bouche d'une immense délicatesse. La structure tannique poudrée le mène avec une douceur magnifique une matière longiligne de bout en bout. Le souffle salin sculpte avec panache la finale de cet assemblage de 78% de merlot et 22% de cabernet franc. »

Vinous (N. Martin): 91-93/100 "The 2024 Canon has a bouquet well defined with pure black cherry, raspberry and a subtle marine influence that develops in the glass, though I find the Troplong Mondot tasted alongside has more amplitude. The palate is medium-bodied and pliant with fine tannins and finesse. One bottle at the château had more weight on the finish than others that feel attenuated and missing a bit of substance."

See the technical sheet

Vinous (A. Galloni): 95-97/100 "The 2024 Troplong Mondot is a total stunner. As has been the case for some years now? The Grand Vin is blended before being barreled down, which means at the time of tasting en primeur, the wine has seen less wood than the vast majority of its peers. That lends this wine a certain raw energy that is impossible to miss. The purity and intensity of the flavors are simply remarkable. Troplong Mondot is one of the standouts of 2024. Even in this vintage, Troplong Mondot possesses remarkable textural presence, but that richness is matched by notable freshness and linear drive. It was deeply impressive on the two occasions I tasted."

Bettane & Desseauve : 95-96/100 « La molasse de l’Agenais donne de la densité à ce millésime, ce qui permet d’aller chercher du fruit. La minéralité se fait sentir en finale, apportant salinité et profondeur tout en renforçant l’équilibre de ce vin séducteur. »

Le Point : 17.5/20 « Expressif, fruits rouge, baies sauvages, rose sauvage, trame calcaire, densité, tanins sapides, finale saline, relevée. »

Vinous (N. Martin): 93-95/100 "The 2024 Troplong Mondot offers minerally, tightly wound black fruit, blueberry and light chalky scents. Very fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant yet tensile tannins. Like the Mondot, it is peppery in style, pretty and sapid towards the finish. Not a huge amount of persistence, yet this is still a serious Saint-Émilion that could well end up at the top of my banded score."

La Revue du Vin de France : 93-95/100 « Un élevage à moitié en barriques neuves et une part intéressante de foudres (26 %), voilà l'équation brillante pour Troplong. Derrière sa jolie robe éclatante, le vin dévoile un bouquet aromatique lumineux et une bouche pleine de panache : beau délié de matière, en demi-puissance en cœur de bouche, sans creux. Dynamique, la finale provoque une salivation intense qui ponctue cette interprétation contemporaine de Bordeaux. »

See the technical sheet

Bettane & Desseauve : 95-96/100 « Nez est complexe et élégant, texture crémeuse en bouche avec des tannins d’une finesse rare, parfaitement fondus, offrant une sensation de soyeux. Ce millésime combine avec brio la richesse du fruit, la fraîcheur et une dynamique incroyable qui le propulse parmi les plus grands vins de l’appellation saint-émilion. »

J-M Quarin : 95/100 « Couleur noire, aux reflets grenat. Incroyable nez très aromatique, sentant bon les fruits mûrs. Touches de fruits blancs, de cerise et de truffe. Ce n'est qu'à l'agitation du verre que viennent des repères de vin rouge. Voila qui trouble les sens et les savoirs ! Ce qui est la définition même du Grand Vin. Moelleux à l'attaque, juteux en milieu de bouche, avec de la classe dans le toucher, le vin fond sur le palais, puis gagne de la profondeur dans la persistance. Finale séveuse et plus parfumée que jamais. Ensemble difficile à cracher. »

Le Point : 17.5/20 « Fruits noirs, bon volume, tanins veloutés, riche, bouche saline, très bel équilibre, finale sur le côté minéral du calcaire, très long, élevage soigné. »

Vinous (A. Galloni): 92-95/100 "The 2024 Valandraud is a quite the powerhouse. Dense and explosive, Valandraud packs a huge punch. Macerations reached up to four weeks, long for the vintage, yielding an especially huge, deep Saint-Émilion. Valandraud is atypically concentrated for the year. Let's see what happens with élevage. There is so alluring. This is an especially heady, opulent wine in 2024. That was clearly the intent, and an approach that worked."

Vinous (N. Martin): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Valandraud can handle the 100% new oak, with a floral style and more red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black cherries and raspberry, showing a firm grip towards the finish with moderate length. It will require three or four years to cohere, but I am concerned about the oak averhelming the fruit, hence my score."

La Revue du Vin de France : 90-92/100  « Avec ses 85% de merlot, le vin est toujours haut en couleur. On sent le résultat d'une réflexion menée de bout en bout. Formidable de droiture, il affiche la forte signature fumée-grillée de l'élevage. Les amateurs de vins au boisé assumé apprécieront. »

See the technical sheet

Bettane & Desseauve : 94-95/100 « Arômes de fruits noirs mûrs, cassis, mûre, cerise noire, notes d’épices, de poivre noir avec une touche de tabac blond. La richesse aromatique fait écho à la sophistication du vin. L’attaque est veloutée, avant de se fondre dans une matière dense et soyeuse. »

La Revue du Vin de France : 92-94/100 « On retrouve indéniablement le calcaire dans ce cru signé par 80% de merlot et 20% de cabernet franc. Après son habituelle retenue aromatique, il installe cette force naturelle, avec une droiture crayeuse, fougueuse, et un charme qui confine à la sucrosité. Traçant comme une flèche, il s'adresse aux amoureux de vins frais, septentrionaux. »

Vinous (A. Galloni): 93-95/100 "The 2024 La Mondotte is punchy and energetic, but it also needs to be approached with an open mind and palate. At 13% alcohol, the lowest I can remember here, La Mondotte is driven by strong limestone inflections and brisk acids more than anything else. Elevage will be everything. The combination of the growing season along with a move towards more freshness in the wines here yielded a Mondotte unlike any I can recall tasting."

Vinous (N. Martin): 91-93/100 "The 2024 La Mondotte has the best aromatics amongst the cuvées in the Van Neipperg stable, with redcurrant and wild strawberry fruit, rose petal and light incense aromas. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with a bit more weight on the mid-palate than the preceding Canon-la-Gaffelière, just a bit of piquancy and a tender raspberry finish."

Le Point : 17.5/20 « Fruits noirs, sureau, ronce, tanins fins, élégants, enrobés, salivants, bouche équilibrée, tendue, finale relevée, en finesse. »

See the technical sheet

Bettane & Desseauve : 96-97/100 « De grands cabernets donnent un vin intense et complexe, avec des arômes de fruits noirs (cassis, mûre), et des touches poivrées, tout en maintenant une belle fraîcheur. Superbes notes florales. »

J-M Quarin : 95/100 « Couleur sombre, intense et belle. Superbe nez très aromatique, fin, pur, fruité et subtil. Délicieux en entrée de bouche, avec une texture minutieuse et de la grâce dans le toucher, le vin évolue sur un corps fondant, moelleux et parfumé, vers une longue finale séveuse et complexe. Une touche de vivacité reste à fondre à l'élevage. »

La Revue du Vin de France : 94-95/100 « Très jolie robe soutenue, d'une superbe complexité aromatique mêlant nuances florales, finesse végétale et framboise. Une palette aromatique fraîche aux allures océaniques. L'élevage, réalisé à 100 % en bois de neuf, est déjà parfaitement fondu, témoignant du travail minutieux de sélection des barriques. L'ensemble présente un équilibre élancé, tenu par une épine dorsale fine, où le trio cabernet-sauvignon (39%), merlot (33%) et cabernet franc (27%) déploie un relief aromatique énergique, fidèle à la signature de Figeac. »

Vinous (A. Galloni): 93-96/100 "Silky and aromatic, with velvety tannins, the 2024 Figeac is sublime. Floral and savory aromatics meld into a core of blue/purplish fruit, spice, licorice, lavender and menthol. All the elements are so well balanced. The blend is 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc, with 8% press wines. Not surprisingly, the 2024 is a very Cabernet-driven Figeac. Production is 60,000 bottles, or 50% of normal, because of low yields and further selection in the cellar."

Vinous (N. Martin): 93-95/100 "The 2024 Figeac is matured entirely in new oak. That wood is neatly assimilated on the nose with blackberry, raspberry and light pine resin scents, all fashioned with wonderful delineation. Later, a hint of wilted rose petal emerges from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a keen line of acidity. This is very elegant and classical Figeac in style. There is a little more linearity, but this feels quite effortless overall. Its buvabilité is perhaps higher than other vintages, even if the likes of the 2020 or 2022 might have longer legs. This becomes spicier with aeration, which seems to prolong the finish."

See the technical sheet

J-M Quarin : 94/100 « Couleur vive, intense et sombre. Nez sentant bon la framboise, évoluant intense dans le verre, fin, subtil, complexe et noble. Minutieux à l'attaque, doté d'une texture ravissante et d'un corps fondant, le vin évolue raffiné, racé et distingué dans la persistance. Une qualité de déroulé et d'arômes unique induit par 85 % cabernet franc et 15 % cabernet sauvignon. La magie des jeunes vignes d'Ausone. »

Vinous (N. Martin): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Chapelle d'Ausone, like the 2021, contains no Merlot. It has an intense bouquet with brambly red berry fruit, blueberry and light violet scents. This is finely delineated, although the 2022 was more complex. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth entry, a linear style and more black fruit compared to say, La Clotte."

Vinous (A. Galloni): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Chapelle d'Ausone is a very pretty wine second wine. Floral aromatics, bright red-toned fruit and refined tannins convey an impression of finesse in a mid-weight, nuanced Chapelle. Today, the 2024 is a bit quiet. I won't be at all surprised it is even better from bottle."

See the data sheet

Bettane & Desseauve : 96-97/100 « Complexe et intense, élégant et précis, avec une expression minérale et subtile qui se retrouve dans la texture du vin avec de l’éclat et une fraîcheur due à l’acidité naturelle des sols calcaires. Structure tannique fine et bouche de grande légèreté malgré sa puissance. Le terroir d’Ausone a pris le pas sur le millésime. »

J-M Quarin : 95/100 « Beau rouge sombre, intense. Nuances vives. Nez très aromatique, fin, pur, fruité et subtil. Touches de truffe et de cerise à l'agitation dans le verre. Moelleux en entrée de bouche et de suite très savoureux, le vin glisse sur le palais, très charmeur, avec de la classe dans le toucher et beaucoup de goût. C'est long et très bon. »

Vinous (A. Galloni): 93-95/100 "The 2024 Angélus is very fine. It is the first vintage I have tasted that captures the newer approach at Angélus, one where the wines are not extracted as in the past. Black cherry, plum, spice, new leather and menthol fill out the layers effortlessly. Here, too, the wine shows superb balance and real textural presence. The 2024 is mid-weight, classy and polished."

Vinous (N. Martin): 91-93/100 "The 2024 Angélus has an intriguing bouquet that deserves a little more reflection than some of its peers. A touch of fish scales commingles with black olive tapenade alongside dark berry fruit in what you might describe as a "cool" nose. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. The 2024 is certainly a more linear Angélus, saline with a liberal sprinkling of black pepper. It gains modest depth on the graphite-tinged and Cabernet-driven finish, which is drier than previous vintages (as expected in this vintage). There is fine salinity with a shorter aftertaste than you would find in a warm vintage. This is well-crafted and just needs more flesh on the slender finish. Maybe that will develop during its élevage? It will be an enjoyable Angélus rather than a profound one destined for long-term aging."

See the data sheet

Bettane & Desseauve : 96-97/100 « Des notes de pivoine et de fruits noirs, beaucoup de profondeur et de sophistication. En bouche, l’attaque est fraîche, précise, avec une texture soyeuse suivie par une structure tannique fine et élégante, d’une grande subtilité. La finale se prolonge sur des notes de menthe fraîche, de violette avec subtile touche de graphite. »

J-M Quarin : 95/100 « Couleur rouge sombre, aux reflets noirs. Nez très aromatique, fin, fruité, subtil et crémeux. Touches complexes de truffe et de fruits noirs à l'agitation du verre. Ultra minutieux en entrée de bouche, gras et même complexe au milieu, le vin fond sur le palais, tout à la fois délicat et profond, sur une saveur de fruits noirs. C'est long et très bon. »

Le Point : 17.5/20 « Besoin d'air, fruité pur, baies sauvages. Bien bâti, très cabernet, bons tanins denses et solides, austère en l'état, élevage très en place, belle matière. »

La Revue du Vin de France : 94-96/100 « À Cheval Blanc, l'éclat et l'élan du cabernet franc (48%) ont porté le millésime, au côté du merlot (46%) et du cabernet-sauvignon (6%) », annonce le directeur général Pierre-Olivier Clouet. Affichant seulement 12,8° d'alcool en 2024, le vin nous fait éprouver une sorte de nostalgie : il y a longtemps que l'on n'avait vu des vins à ces degrés. Il affiche une couleur soutenue rare dans ce millésime. Un tri drastique a engendré un vin précis et soigné, d'une grande retenue aromatique sur les fleurs et les fruits rouges. La bouche développe une superbe suavité, un élan frais, svelte, aux allures océaniques. La finale s'étire avec grâce, portée par des tanins caressants. »

Vinous (N. Martin): 93-95/100 "The 2024 Cheval Blanc is aged entirely in new oak. The purity on the nose is the first facet that you notice with perfumed black cherry, blackcurrant, wild strawberry and touches of potpourri and crushed stone. There is certainly some mineralité here. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly brittle tannins. Very well balanced, this is clearly a Cheval Blanc built in a more elegant, sapid, linear style with a residual pepperiness that lingers in the mouth. The 2024 is charming and refined."

Vinous (A. Galloni): 92-94/100 "The 2024 Cheval Blanc is a blend taken from 37 of the 45 parcels on the property. Dried flowers, mocha, rose petal and blood orange open nicely in the bouquet, leading to an understated mid-palate and a subtly persistent finish. Understated and nuanced, the 2024 offers  lovely forward fruit in a soft, accessible style with no hard edges or awkward contours. All the elements are nicely pur together, and yet there is no denying the fact that the 2024 is very light. Elevage be everything here."

See the technical sheet

Bettane & Desseauve : 96-97/100 « Complexe et intense, élégant et précis, avec une expression minérale et subtile qui se retrouve dans la texture du vin avec de l’éclat et une fraîcheur due à l’acidité naturelle des sols calcaires. Structure tannique fine et bouche de grande légèreté malgré sa puissance. Le terroir d’Ausone a pris le pas sur le millésime. »

J-M Quarin : 96/100 « Couleur sombre, intense et belle. Nez très aromatique, fin, pur, fruité et complexe. Il se développe sur une touche de fleurs et de framboise à l'agitation du verre. Texture ultra minutieuse dès l'entrée en bouche. Le vin se développe sur une structure fondante à la sucrosité miraculeuse. Élancé, il évolue juteux, parfumé et long. Ensemble subtil, noble, profond et impossible à cracher. »

Le Point : 18/20 « Joli fruit, fruité pur, cerise, bouche charnue, tanins denses, bien bâti, profond, feuillage en finale, bon amer, de la fraîcheur. »

Vinous (A. Galloni): 93-96/100 "The 2024 Ausone is pure sensuality. Intensely perfumed, pliant and silky on the palate, Ausone is haunting in its beauty. All the elements are so well balanced. Black cherry, lavender, mocha, espresso and exotic spice overtones all take shape in the glass. A wine of understated depth, the 2024 is impressive. Even in the early going, the 100% new oak is not at all evident, suggesting a wine with superior balance."

Vinous (N. Martin): 93-95/100 "The 2024 Ausone has a very pure nose with black cherry, wild strawberry and a touch of cracked black pepper in the background. It just misses some of the profound complexity that a top Ausone can deliver. The palate is lovely, though, one of the most velvety 2024s that I tasted out of barrel. This is very harmonious with a focused and sustained finish. Whilst it doesn't quite have the horsepower or sheer ambition of a top-drawer Ausone, this is a success for the vintage simply because it is endowed with greater substance and persistence. There's presence here."

La Revue du Vin de France : 92-94/100 « À l'ouverture, il y a une très belle retenue aromatique, naturellement d'une densité particulière, avec ses 65% de cabernet franc, le reste en merlot. Cette année, Ausone dessine une silhouette très svelte, traçante. Cet équilibre détonne par rapport aux derniers millésimes, plus denses et concentrés. La sensation du calcaire est presque électrique. L'élevage lui fera le plus grand bien. »

Vinous (N. Martin): 88/100 "The 2024 Rully Montmorin includes 10% new barrels, half in wood and the rest in stainless steel. This has a lilting nose with light mango and Clementine scents, well defined as usual. The palate is fresh on the entry with a keen line of acidity. There is a brightness to this Rully that I like, and it feels reassuringly precise on the finish."

Vinous (N. Martin): 88-90/100 "The 2024 Savigny-lès-Beaune Blanc comprises five barrels this year. Lemon curd and light orange pith scents on the nose, this has a little more depth than the previous vintage. The palate is quite flinty on the entry. Bright acidity, plenty of energy, this should drink well for several years."

Vinous (N. Martin): 89-91/100 "There are five barrels of the 2024 Santenay Les Pierres Sèches this year. Grapefruit, orange pith and apricot unfold on the nose, which has pleasing purity of fruit. The palate is well balanced with nicely integrated wood, a keen line of acidity and a nice edginess towards the finish. This might surpass the previous vintage."

Vinous (N. Martin): 89-91/100 "The 2024 Saint-Aubin les Murgers des Dents de Chien 1er Cru has a light peppermint tincture on the nose that opens nicely in the glass. The palate is fresh and vibrant with a silver thread of acidity. Quite a "fluid" Saint-Aubin, even if it needs just a little more persistence. Give it a year in bottle."

Vinous (N. Martin): 89-91/100 "The 2024 Chassagne-Montrachet Villages has a delineated bouquet with assiduous use of oak. Just the faintest reduction at play. The palate is fresh and crisp with citrus peel, orange pith and a little spice. Very pretty, very elegant with a nicely focused finish this punches above its weight."

Vinous (N. Martin): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Village is a blend of owned and exchanged fruit. This has another bright and quite minty bouquet that soars from the glass. Plenty of energy. The palate is fresh and vibrant, fine weight, quite tensile with plenty of mineralité on the finish. Classically styled Puligny that will give a lot of pleasure."

Vinous (N. Martin): 92-94/100 "The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet les Folatières 1er Cru has a very fragrant bouquet with yellow fruit, white flowers, a touch of mint and even a suggestion of red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a keen line of acidity. Very precise, certainly more mineral-driven than the "sunnier" 2023 - this has great potential."

Vinous (N. Martin): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Clos de la Pucelle 1er Cru was coming out to play when I visited the Domaine, the nose obstinate and backward. The palate is crisp on the entry, quite malic with cooking apple and notes of pear, moderate depth and a dash of spice on the finish. Fine, but it needs to find its groove."

Vinous (N. Martin): 93-95/100 "The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Clos du Cailleret 1er Cru has a little more precision and detail compared to the Clos du Cailleret this year. Touches of Conference pear and orange pith and a hint of candle wax on the nose. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, quite dainty and elegant yet there is real cohesion and precision towards the finish. This is very classy."

Bourgogne Aujourd’hui (August–September 2025): 89/100  “Made from 60-year-old vines, this cuvée reveals delicate, lemony and floral aromas... The wine has body, fleshiness, flavours of ripe fruit and a lovely length. Promising!”

Vinous (N. Martin): 92-94/100 "The 2024 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru comprises four barrels this year. Harvested a little later, it has a touch more tropical tones on the nose yet there is still admirable mineralité and tension. The palate is vibrant on the entry, quite strict and linear, more malic on the palate than on the nose with a dash of spice that comes through on the finish. Good potential, though in some ways quite uncompromising."

Bourgogne Aujourd’hui (August–September 2025): 92/100  "The estate cultivates 75-year-old vines in the Chevalier. Elegant aromas, at once mineral, ‘stony’ and sunny, with notes of candied lemon and bergamot... The wine is complex, fresh, full-bodied, long, dense, taut and harmonious. Great potential!”

Vinous (N. Martin): 95-97/100 "Harvested on 15 September, the 2024 Chevalier-Montrachet Clos de Chevaliers Grand Cru has a fragrant bouquet with citrus fruit, hints of fern and fennel, crushed stone surfacing with aeration. Impressive delineation here. The palate is very well balanced with spot-on acidity, bright and vivacious, though very complex with a mineral-driven finish that is top notch. Certainly this is as good as the 2023. Excellent."

Vinous (N. Martin): 87-89/100 "The 2024 Bourgogne Aligoté Cuvée Saint-Urbain contains fruit from Aux Boutières this year [0.8-acre vineyard in Marsannay] this year, matured in stainless steel. This has a vigorous nose with touches of yellow plum, pithy pear and honeysuckle scents. Fine delineation. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bread of acidity, taut and linear, perhaps just missing a bit of chutzpah on the finish but it is a decent Aligoté that will give four or five year's drinking pleasure."

See the technical sheet

Vinous (N. Martin): 88-90/100 "The 2024 Marsannay Clos du Roy offers pretty red fruit commingly with orange pith and light leafy aromas. It just needs a little more delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded, quite supple tannins. Not as complex as the previous couple of vintages but cohesive with freshness ans tension on the finish. Enjoy this over several years."

See the technical sheet

Vinous (N. Martin): 85-87/100 "The 2024 Marsannay Les Longeroies has a much lighter and airier bouquet than previous vintage, bright red fruit that is well defined albeit missing the same level of complexity. The palate is well balanced with light tannins and fine acidity but the finish feels a bit diminished by the traumatic growing season and lacks some energy. Maybe it was suffering on the day of my visit?"

Bourgogne Aujourd'hui : 94/100 "Deep colour. A complex, intense nose of sweet black fruit, with elegant floral notes and a hint of mocha. On the palate, it is full-bodied and opens with a delicious fruitiness. The tannins give the wine a rounded, delicate structure right through to the finish."

See the technical sheet

Vinous (N. Martin): 91-93/100 "The 2024 Marsannay Trois Terres Vieilles Vignes has a cohesive and focused bouquet, pure red berry fruit, wild hedgerw and light violet scents that blossom in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, very elegant and pure, demonstrating more minéralité and tension than Fournier's other red cuvées. Bon vin."

See the technical sheet

Vinous (N. Martin): 88-90/100 "The 2024 Fixin Village is blended with the Croix Violette this year. It has a light bouquet, a little more tetiairy in style, perhaps a little discombobulated by the previous week's raking. The palate is well balanced with a powdery-textured entry. I appreciate the fruit profile: strawberry and red cherries, bright and perky on the finish. This should end up being a fine Fixin."

See the technical sheet

Vinous (N. Martin): 89-91/100 "The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a pretty nose with wild strawberry and cranberry (again) and light rose petal scents in the background, well defined. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, fresh and vibrant, quite poised with impressive mineralité for a Gevrey-Village on the finish. Worth seeking out, this punches above its weight."

La Revue du Vin de France: 91/100 “A very precise, lively, and easy-to-drink medium-bodied wine, with great freshness and pinpoint precision.”

Vinous (N. Martin): 95-87/100 "The 2024 Bourgogne Roncevie was showing just a little reduction on the nose, though you could still discern the dark berry fruit underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with a little chewiness on the entry, but I appreciate the acidity in this regional red and though it scarpers out the exit door with speed, there is sufficient energy to keep your attention."

La Revue du Vin de France: 91+/100 “Still showing some reduction, this slightly austere and tight Gevrey needs time to age. Today, it is showing its structure, with austerity but depth.”

Vinous (N. Martin): 87-89/100 "The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin Village was showing quite a lot of reduction as it is due for racking. The palate is medium-bodied with finer tannins than the Chambolle but with linearity and strictness of the Morey-Village. Again, it just needs a bit more weight and fruité at the back end and maybe the second winter in barrel will give that."

Vinous (N. Martin): 90-92/100 "The 2024 Morey-Saint-Denis Aux Chesaux 1er Cru was showing a bit of reduction on the nose despite rigorous coaxing. The palate is medium-bodied and here you can see the potential with a fine lattice of tannins, more marine influence with a grippy finish. Time will shave its edges so keep this in bottle for three or four years if you can."

Vinous (N. Martin): 88-90/100 "The 2024 Chambolle-Musigny Les Noirots 1er Cru has a more tertiary nose with dark berry fruit, graphite and loam. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins, pretty red berry fruit with gentle grip towards the finish that feels a bit under-nourished compared to Arlaud's other cuvées at the moment."
