Wine Advocate (92-94)The 2013 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has a perfumed, floral bouquet that is quintessential Charmes-Chambertin really. It is very well defined and pure with small dark cherries, blueberry and iris scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin structure, a citric thread of acidity and an austere and serious finish that is more Morey-like in style. There is a lovely sense of salinity on the aftertaste that begs you to take another sip. I actually prefer this to the Clos-de-la-Roche this year. |

Wine Spectator (95)A powerful, dense version, evoking cherry, currant and spice flavors, with underlying accents of mineral and tobacco. Tight and chalky on the finish, but showing promise. Best from 2020 through 2040. |

Vinous (91-93)Bright red. Aromas of strawberry, cherry and rose petal are a bit muted by musky leathery reduction; showed some darker fruit character as it opened in the glass. Offers an attractive balance between thickness and energy but quite backward today and distinctly more clenched than the Aux Combottes. Finishes with good verve and thrust, and a hint of bloody steak, but not quite the class of a great Charmes. Arlaud's vines are actually located in the top part of Mazoyères, just under Latricières. They range from 25 to 70 years of age, but he often declassifies most of the younger vines into his Gevrey villages, as he did in 2016. He noted that the young vines produced nicely concentrated grapes in '16 but they were picked near the beginning of the harvest and lacked the density of the older vines. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2019 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is very pure and intense on the nose, a melange of black and blueberry fruit infused with pressed violet petals. The oak here is seamlessly integrated. The palate is opulent on the entry with black plum and boysenberry jam. There is a subtle confit element to this Charmes-Chambertin with grippy tannins on the finish that delivers a subtle bitter/sappy edginess. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2020 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, matured in 15% new oak, showed just a tiny morsel of reduction on the nose, that the concentration here was still tangible. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine acidity, taut and fresh and very precise. This has real class and verve, though it will benefit from several years in bottle. |

Vinous (94-96)The 2021 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is a little more "gourmand" on the nose, cohering with time in the glass, loamy, almost peaty aromas emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-honed tannins. Lovely symmetry here, with a slight creaminess in texture towards the finish, where it feels very persistent. This is a lovely Charmes-Chambertin that should evolve wonderfully in bottle. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2022 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru, one of the last to be picked over three different passes, has a plush and expressive bouquet with dark cherries, raspberry coulis and light violet petal aromas that recede and reveal orange rind and yuzu scents. The palate is medium-bodied with firm grip on the entry. It’s a solid Charmes-Chambertin that is Mazoyères in style because, well, that's where it's from! A serious Charmes-Chambertin that will age well in bottle. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)Bright fresh purple. The nose has just a suggestion of chocolate on top of the raspberries. There is plenty of energy here on the palate, now some ripe cherries, not the most concentrated but with a fine long aftertaste. Has me reaching for another taste! Drink from 2033-2040. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Vinous (93-95)Medium red. Aromas of strawberry, raspberry, flowers and spices. Juicy on entry, then suave and light on its feet in the middle, with dense red berry flavors accented by white pepper, mint and flowers. This is a live wire in the mouth but it's also seamless and refined. The very subtle, slowly mounting finish displays a touch of medicinal bitterness that stimulates the salivary glands. Arlaud noted that his grand cru vineyards yielded 30 to 32 hectoliters per hectare in 2015, which he described as good for a dry year and better balanced as a result. The berries were small in 2015 but not nearly as tiny as those in 2003, when the same vineyards produced barely 20 hectoliters per hectare. |

Vinous (92-94)Medium red. A reticent but pure expression of Clos de la Roche soil on the nose, offering subtle scents of raspberry, strawberry, dried flowers, brown spices, underbrush and minerals. Juicy and fine-grained but youthfully tight, with lovely spicy, integrated, mineral-driven acidity framing the red berry and earth flavors. Finishes lively and tight but not hard or dry. Arlaud noted that the pH is 3.5, at the high end for his 2016s, as is usually the case for this wine, which comes from vines that he's careful not to pick too early. We need to accept a higher pH in order to get enough fruit ripeness, he explained. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2018 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is matured with 30% whole bunch and 20% new oak. The superb bouquet presents a mélange of red and black fruit, sous-bois and blood orange aromas that blossom from the glass. The medium-bodied palate delivers supple tannins and finely judged acidity. Quite compact for a Clos de la Roche, with noticeable backbone on the finish. It will require several years in bottle but it should be worth the wait. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2020 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru might be a little more compact on the nose compared to the Clos de la Roche at the moment, yet I feel that this has more focus and cohesion by comparison. Wonderful mineralité here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, an entrancing symmetry here with a caressing, almost citrus-fresh finish that feels very long. Superb. |

Vinous (96-98)The 2021 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru has what is often termed "transparency" on the entrancing nose, airy yet vigorous with lifted red berry fruit, petrichor and light citrus aromas. There's just a hint of reduction but minor. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, quite deep and intense, elegant and lightly spiced towards the persistent finish that lingers in the mouth. Unerringly symmetrical. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (95-97)The 2023 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru seems more detailed and articulates its terroir with more aplomb than the Clos de la Roche at the moment. There is brightness and energy, combined with complexity. After a few swirls, touches of bay leaf and tea leaves emerge. The palate is medium-bodied with sapid black fruit and fine grip, slightly more viscous in texture than the Clos de la Roche, with a pinch of black pepper and graphite on the long finish. Superb. |

Vinous (89-92)Good dark red. Sexy aromas of black raspberry, black cherry, plum, chocolate and animal fur. Sweet, lush and mouthfilling, conveying an impression of almost chocolatey ripeness. In a very sweet stage right now but this village wine also possesses nicely integrated acidity and finishes with a fine dusting of tannins. The longest of these village wines, showing excellent lingering fruit. |

Vinous (88-90)Healthy dark red. Reduced, soil-driven scents of raspberry, smoke and fresh blood. Conveys more texture and ripeness than the Chambolle villages but with plenty of balancing acidity. This juicy midweight offers an enticing red cherry sweetness in the middle palate and finishes with red berries and spices. Here the tannins are nicely broad and well supported by the wine's material. |

The most prevalent and recognised or 'international grape' varieties in the world are mostly of French origin. The enduring popularity and respect of French wine has meant that Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvingon, Merlot and many others have been exported and experimented with around the world.
