Neal Martin, November 2022, Score: 93-95
The 2021 Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru is very pure and perfumed, macerated red cherries, wild strawberry, kirsch and rose petal scents, an underlying mineralité that will become more conspicuous with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, quite firm tannins (more like a Mazis?) leading to a sapid, slightly peppery finish that lingers. Needs to knit together but great potential. Drink 2025-2042

Jasper Morris MW, November 2022, Score: 93-95
A luxurious purple colour. The bouquet is very classy, much fuller deep raspberry notes, and suggesting a touch of velvet to follow. Dark fruit with some fresher redder points popping up, good acidity but no shortage of fruit to cover it. Very good. Drink from 2027-2035.

Alexandre Abel has joined the team as régisseur, and together they continue to uphold these three principles of the estate. Furthermore, they are not afraid to experiment, and are always evolving the viticulture and winemaking style with small innovations. The estate has eschewed the fashion of using new oak barrels to age the wines, preferring seasoned casks which act as an “elevage” vessel rather than imparting barrel flavours. As Alexandre says “we want our wines to taste the maximum of the true fruit and terroir flavours that nature provides us with".Read less
