Burghound (89-91)(from 7 different lieux-dits). A mentholated top note can be found on the slightly riper aromas of plum, newly turned earth and a whisper of the sauvage. The sleek, delicious and vibrant middle weight flavors possess both fine vibrancy and detail while delivering solid length on the moderately austere and lightly rustic finale. This is a solid Gevrey villages and worth checking out. |

Wine Advocate (93)The 2009 Latricieres-Chambertin reveals gorgeous inner perfume and depth. The fruit is vibrant, chiseled and full of energy. Latricieres is one of the cooler sites in Gevrey, which was a big help in preserving freshness in 2009. A long, intense finish rounds things out in style. This is a superb wine from Rossignol-Trapet. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029. |

Wine Advocate (94)Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has a very composed bouquet with fine delineation, bright redcurrant and cranberry fruit, later hints of dried blood and potpourri. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, gentle and yet harmonious with gorgeous mulberry and red plum fruit, underneath which lies very fine mineralité. With great length to boot, this is an excellent Latricières from Rossignol-Trapet. Tasted September 2016. |

Vinous (94+)The 2017 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru is very stubborn and closed on the nose, then opens wonderfully to offer red cherries, wild strawberry and pomegranate scents, but frustratingly, it ebbs away with further aeration. Very mercurial. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit and fine depth and grip, delivering admirable precision on the finish. It will need a few years to settle down, but it should come good in the end. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting. |

Vinous (94+)The 2018 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has an outstanding bouquet of vibrant black cherry and boysenberry fruit suffused with minerals. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit on the entry, maybe just a little closed after bottling at the moment, but demonstrating good grip and a strong marine influence on the finish. Give this 3–4 years in bottle. |

Burghound (92-95)(from vines planted in 1955). A strikingly elegant if restrained nose is comprised by notes of red and dark currant, forest floor, exotic tea and an abundance of floral hints. There is both fine intensity and an almost aggressive minerality to the chiseled medium-bodied flavors that possess an appealing texture before concluding in a moderately austere and refreshing finish that also displays just a touch of warmth. This is a very classy wine that should also amply repay mid to longer-term keeping. |

Roulot Meursault 1er Cru Clos des Bouchères 2019 epitomises the refined elegance of Burgundy’s esteemed Meursault region. Crafted by the illustrious Jean-Marc Roulot, this exceptional Chardonnay originates from the prestigious Clos des Bouchères vineyard, renowned for its limestone-rich terroir. The 2019 vintage benefited from an optimal growing season, ensuring grapes of impeccable ripeness and balanced acidity. Following traditional viticultural practices, the grapes were meticulously hand-harvested and undergo gentle pressing to preserve their purity. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, subsequently followed by ageing in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barrels. This meticulous process imparts complex layers of citrus zest, ripe pear, and subtle almond nuances, complemented by a mineral-driven backbone and a creamy, lingering finish. Roulot’s dedication to excellence and terroir expression is vividly captured in this 2019 Clos des Bouchères, making it a distinguished choice for discerning wine aficionados. |

Vinous (90)The 2019 Meursault Les Vireuils has a pretty bouquet with orchard fruit, hints of apricot and just a touch of almond coming through with aeration. The palate is well balanced with an edgy opening, quite sharp at first, orange zest and a touch of tangerine. A citric finish just needs a little more length. This will develop with bottle age but I would afford it 3 to 4 years in the cellar. |
