A wonderful set of wines here as ever from the Bourgogne Blanc right through to the Grand Cru Chevalier Montrachet. Yields were a little down on a normal vintage, but it was the heat and water stress that really marked the vintage with particular effect on volumes from his Chaumee and En Remilly sites.
2020 was an outstanding vintage for Philippe and his team, that really took advantage of the unique conditions of the vintage to bring out opulence and purity of their fruit whilst maintaining a firm, taut minerality that is synonymous with the Domaine.
The 2020 is a beautiful and elegant wine. Unsurprisingly considering the grapes come from vines in St Aubain and Chassagne (50/50), two villages that have excelled in this vintage. There is great expression here dominated by fruit but with elegant floral notes too. Rounded texture, pure fruit and a lively finish. Delicious! Nick Daniell, Club Wine Buyer
Delicious bouquet after a pale green tint. This has energy and accessibility. Generous in fruit, delicious in flavour, with a fresh acidity reminiscent of 2014, this is going to be a treat. Tasted: October 202188pts Jasper Morris
