Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-94)A new contract from 2019. Mid crimson colour. The nose here is a stylish red fruit but with some depth behind more together than Les Véroilles. Very even across the palate with medium plus length. You have to wait a bit but the finish shows quite how good this is. Drink from 2026-2032. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)The first sample was from a 2018 barrel which marked the wine a little too much. Mid purple. Riper on the nose and has taken the oak a bit more. Try another one. Much better. A sublime weight of perfectly ripe fruit whereas the other seemed over ripe. Excellent. Drink from 2030-2037. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Petite Chapelle 1er Cru is the smallest cuvée of the domaine, just 4 or 5 barrels each year. It has fine focus and intensity with blackberry, briary and freshly tilled soil. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, crisp and fresh with a crunchy textured, edgy finish. Elegant and full of tension, it should drink well for 12 to 15 years. |

Wine Advocate (92-94)The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos du Fonteny, a monopole of the domaine, has a beautiful bouquet with dark berry fruit, blackberry and light orange blossom scents. This just blossoms with a couple of swirls, displaying impressive vigor while maintaining detail. The palate is stunning: wonderful focus, so much tension and you can really feel the calcaire on the tensile finish. This represents an outstanding offering from Bruno and it comes highly recommended. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Fonteny 1er Cru, which contains 40% whole bunch fruit, has a very detailed bouquet of crushed-stone-infused, minerally fruit; hints of incense and lavender emerge with time in the glass. The palate is fresh and vibrant right from the start, offering candied tart red fruit mixed with orange zest and citrus peel, wonderful definition and such vivacity on the finish that you will beg for another sip straight away. Might this surpass the Clos Saint-Jacques this year? |

Vinous (90-92)The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Fonteny 1er Cru has a fresh, vibrant and mineral-driven bouquet, touches of incense emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, lots of finesse here, just a touch lactic towards the finish but it's smooth and harmonious. I see this as being quite approachable compared to other vintages. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a tight-fisted and recalcitrant bouquet, quite tertiary, white pepper notes emanate from the 40% whole bunches. The palate is medium-bodied with chiselled tannins, fresh and tensile with wild strawberry, marmalade and crushed stone notes on the finish. Bon vin. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-97)Glowing purple. The bouquet is absolutely regal. What else to say? The palate offers a fantastic complexity varying from the sweetness of perfect ripeness through to a more savoury character from the terroir. The length of flavour transcends anything else. Gracefulness personified. Drink from 2032-2040. |

Vinous (92)The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru has a beautifully defined, elegant bouquet of disarming purity – a real charmer. The palate is very well balanced, demonstrating assiduous use of stems. Poised, natural and tensile toward the tart finish, this is classic Gevrey-Chambertin, very well crafted if just a little exotic in style. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting. |

Vinous (89-92)(no hail or frost here in 2015, according to Clair): Medium red. Musky, deeply pitched aromas of raspberry, strawberry and smoky, flinty minerality. Quite taut in the early going, even a bit tough, and not showing the vintage's fleshy side today. But this firmly structured wine finishes with palate-stimulating salinity and subtle length. I would not be surprised if this eventually merited a rating at the top end of my projected range. |
