Burgundy | 1 | 94-96 (VN) | HK$12,960.00 | |||||
Vinous (94-96)The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru is 60-70% whole cluster, not that you can discern on the nose, with around 45% new oak. It has a very pure and seductive bouquet with black cherries, violet and light sea spray/oyster shell scents that unfurl in the glass. The palate is very harmonious with gentle grip, pure and slightly granular in texture, fine depth with a silky smooth finish. This is a sophisticated, generous and seductive Clos de Vougeot that should age with style. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2021 Clos de Vougeot Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has a lively bouquet with loamy scents filtering through the red berry fruit, fragrant with rose petal and peony emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with firmer and more solid tannins than the Cuvée Classique, fleshier with a liquorice-tinged finish. This is a couple of steps ahead of the Cuvée Classique and should give 15 to 20 years' drinking pleasure. |

Burgundy | 1 | 89 (VN) | HK$1,355.00 | |||||
Vinous (89)The 2003 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru does not have the same precision and freshness as the Méo-Camuzet on the nose - smudged blackberry and raspberry fruit, leather and undergrowth scents, the heat blurring the aromatics edges. The palate is medium-bodied with a candied, eucalyptus-tinged entry, the start of a medicinal Clos de Vougeot that feels compromised by the growing season rather than any winemaking fault. Here, it is just shown up by its counterpart from Jean-Nicolas Méo. Tasted at the Clos de Vougeot retrospective at Clos de Vougeot. |

Burgundy | 1 | 93 (BH) | HK$4,045.00 | |||||
Burghound (93)A background application of toasty oak frames an airy, pure and markedly ripe nose of beautifully well-layered dark berry fruit and plum where additional breadth is present in the form of dried flowers, spice and earth accents. The seductively textured, intense and muscular big-bodied flavors possess ripe tannins and plenty of dry extract, all wrapped in a balanced, lingering and energetic finish that is a bit less youthfully austere than usual. |

Burgundy | 1 | 92+ (VN) | HK$26,915.00 | |||||
Vinous (92+)Bright, dark red-ruby. Black cherry and licorice on the ripe but cool nose. Concentrated and deep but light on its feet, showing strong minerality and inner-mouth tension. More energetic than the 2014 and very primary today. Finishes tactile, fresh and long. |

Burgundy | 8 | 93 (BH) | HK$6,175.00 | |||||
Burghound (93)A moderate application of wood frames the overtly floral and attractive fresh aromas of ripe dark cherry, cassis and soft earth hints. The sleek and delineated flavors possess a supple mid-palate though the youthfully austere finish tightens up quickly while evidencing a subtle trace of warmth. This moderately structured effort should be approachable after only 6 to 8 years but reward 12 to 15. |

Burgundy | 6 | 93 (VN) | HK$8,285.00 | |||||
Vinous (93)(these 2015s were bottled in June of '17): Dark red with ruby tones. Very ripe, almost exotic aromas of black cherry, dark plum, licorice and menthol, with lower-pitched notes of damp earth and clove; less perfumed than the 2016 version. Compellingly rich and broad but showing a bit more alcoholic weight and warmth than the '16 (the alcohol here is 13.6%, vs. 13.2% for the earlier vintage) and already shutting down in the bottle. Finishes with broad, dusty, building tannins and strong medicinal reserve. |

Vinous (93)The 2019 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru "Cuvée Classique" has a fragrant nose with red berry fruit, still that touch of struck flint, fine focus with just a touch of reduction at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grip on the entry, quite chalky tannins, white pepper towards the prolonged finish. Just as I expected having tasted this in barrel last year, this Cuvée Classique is ageing with style. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru "Cuvée Classique" is around 50-60% whole cluster, mainly from the older vines in the upper sectors of the clos. It is well-defined on the nose that offers a light marine influence, just a touch of seaweed in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, fine acidity, gentle grip, chalky black fruit with a poised finish. The whole bunch works very well here and it will age with style. Excellent. |

Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Cuvée Classique has a bright and quite lively bouquet, red and black fruit, juniper and hawthorn. The palate is medium-bodied with fine definition, taut and fresh, brown spices infusing the peppery, tobacco-tinged finish. It needs to cohere a little before bottling, though the racking will assist that. |

Wine Spectator (93)This richly structured wine manages to maintain balance and plenty of black-fruit acidity. Showing a firm texture that will soften, it's a blend of equal parts of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, with just a touch of Petit Verdot. The wine needs to age further, so drink from 2022. |

James Suckling (94)A chewy, linear 2018 with very attractive blackberry, chocolate and wet-earth character. Some mushrooms, too. It’s full-bodied, very tight and tannic, yet polished and creamy-textured. Flavorful finish. Very typically Medoc. Needs three years to soften. Try after 2024. |

James Suckling (93-94)This is a medium-to full-bodied red with berry and tile character to the ripe, creamy tannins that are fine-grained and long at the finish. Seriously crafted. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (89-92)Pineapple dominates the nose. Clean, juicy and penetrating, with very intense, pure flavors of pineapple and honey. In its power, this reminded me of a 2001. Finishes with terrific lingering fruit. |
