Vinous: 90-92 Points

The 2020 Morey-Saint-Denis Village which contains around 15% whole bunch had only finished its malo a month prior to my visit. It has a dense intense blackcurrant and cassis-scented bouquet that will need time to mellow. The palate is medium-bodied fresh and fleshy but the black cherry fruit is framed by fine tannins and the finish is so silky smooth that you cannot help falling for its charms. (Drink between 2025-2040)

Jasper Morris: 87-90 Points

3 new barrels in 11. Just as deep and dark purple with a powerful nose that is nonetheless a little bit less lush. Only a bit though as the very dark fruit takes over with firm tannins and good acidity or even salinity. Blacker fruit all round compared to the Chambolle. 14% alcohol.
