The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Charmes 1er Cru is destemmed and matured in 50% new oak. It has a light, what you might call a “transparent” bouquet with airy red fruit. The palate is well-balanced with grainy tannins. It’s quite a gentle Chambolle with a smooth texture, gaining weight towards the finish and exerting just the right amount of grip. It’s understated in style, but I appreciate how it gains momentum with time. Worth looking out for. Drink: 2026-2040Neal Martin, Vinous 91-93
Stéphane Magnien Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru ‘Les Sentiers’ 2022
Beautiful Perfume & Earthy Mystique
There's a great purity & vibrancy to Magnien's wines. His Sentiers is classic Chambolle! A slightly more elegant and more floral-suffused nose displays notes of violet, lavender and plum liqueur. There is fine mid-palate density to the suave and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract before terminating in a bitter pit fruit and nicely balanced finale. This is also quite good with an understated delivery. Drink: 2030+Allen Meadows, Burghound 90

The Derée Champérier vineyard was purchased by the Trapet family in 1859. After 160 uninterrupted years of farming this terroir, current generation Pierre & Louis wanted to make a cuvée as an hommage to the many generations of Trapet vignerons that have come before them. Thanks to its purity and terroir-transparency, they felt the 2019 vintage was the perfect moment to produce the Cuvee 1859.

A more complex nose features notes of citrus confit, green apple and a floral top note along with just enough wood to notice. There is excellent concentration to the sappy and very rich yet focused medium weight flavors that possess a plush mouthfeel, all wrapped in a chalky, youthfully austere and lightly stony finale where a touch of warmth slowly emerges. This well-made effort should repay 2 to 3 years of keeping. 2026+Allen Meadows, Burghound 89 PointsNote: from white pinot noir, w

“The 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers is even more elegant and suave than its 2020 counterpart. Offering up aromas of cassis and dark berries mingled with notions of spices, potpourri and raw cocoa, it's medium to full-bodied, pure and perfumed, with a lively core of fruit framed by supple tannins.” William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 93 Points“A much more deeply pitched nose reflects aromas of plum, pungent earth, the sauvage and hints of forest floor character.

Moderate reduction dominates the nose at present. There is both better complexity and mid-palate density to the still supple and delicious medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a more powerful and noticeably more structured finale. This has fine development potential and is a wine that will need at least some patience. Drink: 2030+Allen Meadows, Burghound 89-91 Points

This is also aromatically perfumed with better layering to the spicier aromas of mostly red cherry and rose petal. There is markedly more refinement to the seductively, even generously, textured medium weight flavors that also exude a subtle bead of minerality on the impressively long, balanced and more complex finale. This is excellent and is a wine that could be approached young but reward a decade plus of cellaring. (from a .52 ha parcel) 2032+ ♥ Sweet spot OutstandingAllen Meadows, Bur

“An overtly floral-suffused nose speaks of airy red berry scents that are liberally laced with a lovely range of spice elements as well as subtle earth and humus nuances. There is markedly better complexity to the medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent punch and this sense of vibrancy also can be found on the long and quite firm finish that is moderately austere but not really rustic, indeed I would go so far as to describe this as a Pruliers of relative refinement, which isn't something

“This is at once brooding yet exceptionally fresh with its layered array of both red and dark berries, violet and a whiff of just turned earth. The rich, delicious and caressing medium weight flavors possess ample punch that carries over to the refreshing and youthfully austere finish that would also benefit from developing better depth with time in bottle." ♥ Outstanding Allen Meadows, Burghound 90-93 Points JM 91-94

A slightly more elegant nose features notes of poached plum, black raspberry, violet and anise hints. There is a notably finer mouthfeel to the attractively textured medium weight flavors that conclude in a firmer and better-balanced finale where a touch of austerity slowly emerges. 2028+ (from a .42 ha parcel)Allen Meadows, Burghound

Moderate wood surrounds the ripe vaguely liqueur-like aromas of various dark berries, spice, violet and lavender. The vibrant and beautifully textured middleweight flavors, indeed it's almost silky thanks to the fine-grained tannins supporting the lingering finish that firms up noticeably. This is an excellent Gevrey villages with good aging potential. Drink 2030+Allen Meadows, Burghound 89-92 Points As readers may remember, the 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin 1859 derives from old vines in
“Dense dark purple. Powerful plums, a graphite note as well, significant density, the fruit swells right across the palate, a huge volume but the ripeness is perfectly judged, with an excellent length. This is very impressive. Reveling in the warmer vintage because the tannins are riper.” Jasper Morris
