About Jancis Robinson

? / 100 James Suckling

2022 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2025

A stunning wine marked by finesse and delicacy. This is ethereal but also deep, with moss and mineral aromas followed by delicate yet naturally racy sweet berries, decadent roses, spices and forest floor. Almost full-bodied for a pinot, but this is much more about texture than anything else. Tense, round and elastic, with a ripe but minerally finish that expands at the end and goes on and on. Real depth in an airy, super-delicate way. 80% whole bunches and 20% new oak barrels. So good to drink now, but this is age-worthy and is likely to morph into something stunning in a decade.

About James Suckling

2019 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2025

Spot-on balance with rich fruit, but it’s not as extreme as the 2020. A refined, mossy nose brimming with subtle sweet berries that mix red and black fruit. A subtle, smoky edge gives another aspect to the evolving aromas and flavors. Round and ripe but really fresh and delineated, with lovely finesse. Drink now or hold.

2021 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2025

This is so delicate and trim, which is a big contrast to the ripe, rich and dense 2020 that was tasted alongside. Nuanced, medium-bodied and linear on the palate, with elegant red berries, moss, citrus and a touch of spearmint spreading across the palate. Poised, fine and lengthy. Already very attractive, but will age well for a decade or more. Drink or hold.

About James Suckling

2020 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2025

The rich, very ripe year gives the wine a lot of color, density and ripeness. Rich dark fruit, black cherries, moss, violets and a touch of sweet blueberries on the nose. A big Clos des Lambrays for sure, but not jammy. Fruitier and more solid than ethereal, with firm but fine tannins. A compact and generous vintage that should have excellent approachability for the mid term. 13.8% alcohol. This is one of the earliest harvests, starting on August 20, which is a month earlier than 2021. Drink from 2026.

About James Suckling

1938 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2025

Medium orange-amber hue. There is an initial sense of dampness that blows off as it quickly evolves in the glass, showing aromas of forest floor, rhubarb, dried porcini mushrooms and touches of cloves and orange peel. A fresh attack of acidity and citrus flavors keeps it alive, even though the fruit has faded and the decadence has grown. A joy to try it, even though this is not at its prime. It’s alive but faded. The vintage was considered one of the least memorable, but it is exciting to see life here. Drink now.

2022 Vintage Tasted: Nov 2024

Ausdrucksstarke Nase, sehr komplex, Himbeeren, Kirschen, Gewürze, steinige Untertöne; sehr elegant am Gaumen, was für eine Beauty, ungemein feines Tannin, grossartige Harmonie, der Wein zeigt Kraft und Präzision, hallt sehr lange nach, hinterlässt ein ungemein fruchtiges Mundgefühl. Grosses Pinot-Kino. Schon jetzt ein Hit, dürfte hervorragend reifen; 2026 bis 2045+

2021 Vintage Tasted: Nov 2023

Helles Rubinrot. Verhaltene Nase, eher scheu, rote Beeren, Blütentee, Walderdbeeren, Trockenkräuter, ein Gedicht. Im Gaumen seidenweich, wunderbar elegant, keinerlei Schwere, der Wein tanzt über die Zunge, wirkt ungemein delikat, das ist ein Pinot-Elexier. Langanhaltend, rotfruchtig, feinwürzig im Abgang. 2024-2040+

2010 Vintage Tasted: Feb 2023

Helles Rubinrot. Intensive Nase, tiefgründig, steinig, viele Kräuter, Schwarztee, rauchige Noten, verändert sich, lädt ein zum Schnüffeln, grosse Komplexität. Im Gaumen gradlinig, top strukturiert, druckvoll und doch elegant, sehr feine Säure, das Holz perfekt integriert, die Tannine sind samtig, nichts überbordet. Der Wein ist ungemein frisch, würzig, und endet mit seiner auf den Punkt gereiften Frucht ausgesprochen lang. Jetzt bis 2030 geniessen 95 vvPunkte

2020 Vintage Tasted: Nov 2022

(100% Pinot Noir, 13.5% Alkohol) Da ist sie wieder, diese Nase, die mich immer wieder an Etna erinnert, neben Kirschen findet man Himbeeren, Erdbeeren, viel Floralität, Kräuter, feuchter Stein, ein Gedicht. Im Gaumen knackig und sehr gut strukturiert, Massen an feinen Tanninen, top Balance aus Frucht, Struktur und Alkohol, ausgezeichnete Länge. Das hat Schliff, Klasse und grosse Reserven. Leider gross, leider teuer.

2019 Vintage Tasted: Jun 2021

Der Wein schwebt in der Nase irgendwo zwischen Burgund und Ätna hin und her, eine intensive Mineralik paart sich mit Kräuterwürze und einem Mix aus roten und dunklen Beeren, Tabak, florale Töne. Im Gaumen feingliedrig und samtig wie ein Seidenschal, perfekte Tannine, rassige Säure, kein Gramm Fett, auf den Punkt gereifte Frucht, filigran aber mit Kraft, die Würze ist da, die Ausgewogenheit bestechend. Ausgezeichnet.

2017 Vintage Tasted: Nov 2019

Helles Rubin. Verführerisches Aroma, ein Duftspiel sondergleichen, Himbeeren, Kräuter, Früchtetee, Orangen, hochkomplex. Der Gaumen ist straff, präzis, dicht und wunderbar würzig, die Frucht wird von markanten Gerbstoffen gepuffert, diese sind fein gewoben, die Säure hält das eher warm anmutende Fruchtpaket frisch. Im Abgang sensationell lang und mit viel roter Johannisbeere und etwas Blutorangen im Retrofinale. Für mich klar auf dem Niveau von Clos de Tart. 19 vvPunkte (96/100).

Tiefe, noch vom Ausbau geprägte Nase, viele Himbeeren, Kirschen, Mineralik. Am Gaumen weicher Auftakt, dann straff werdend, sehr präzis, knackige Frucht, top Säure und feinste Gerbstoffe, dicht aber nicht schwer, hervorragende Balance, ein Traumtänzer. Grosses Kino. 19+ vvPunkte (96+/100)

In der Nase Vulkannoten, Würze, florale Aromen, Himbeeren, Erdbeeren, sehr typisch, hochmineralisch, tief und komplex. Am Gaumen klar und rein, sehr frisch, rotfruchtig, strukturiert, das Holz kaum wahrnehmbar, sensationelle Gerbstoffe. Langer Abgang, ungemein frisch. 19 vvPunkte (94/100)

Here is a refined and balanced red with leather, orange peel and dried strawberry. Medium body and ultra fine tannins. Pretty finish. Drink now.

2014 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2016

This is such a perfumed wine with deceptively soft tannins and great fruit. The acidity is classic for the vintage, with raspberries and intense freshness at the end. It has a fine line of tannins and a life that will go far. Drink from 2022.

2013 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2016

Black fruits dominate this dense wine with a rich texture and a structure packed with ripe tannins. It is an impressive bottling from this single-owner Grand Cru. Dark and firm it will need aging. Drink from 2022.

2002 Vintage Tasted: Jul 2010

An elegant, charming wine that offers structure as well as finesse. The fruits are delicious, perfumed, just maturing into smoky bacon flavors. Dry tannins and red fruits are balanced by fresh acidity.

2005 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2008

A beautiful, pure wine that combines freshness and intense richness. It seems to float while still giving a huge mouthful of plums, coffee and sweet, juicy tannins. A straight line of pure flavor all the way to the finish.

About Wine Enthusiast

2004 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2007

To say this is textbook Pinot Noir is to do this stunning wine an injustice. But it does have everything that should be in a great Pinot Noir—the sumptuousness, the silky tannins, the touch of wood, the red fruits. All of these are enveloped in an elegant structure, leaving freshness and delicious, refreshing acidity at the end.

1990 Vintage Tasted: May 2006

Mittleres Karmingranat, breiterer Wasserrand, Randaufhellung. In der Nase etwas zurückhaltend, zart rauchig-vegetal, braucht Luft, um sich zu entfalten. Kokos, Tabak. Am Gaumen frische Struktur, aber auch erste Alterstöne, wirkt etwas rustikal, es fehlt noch an Definition und Länge. (Diese wird wohl auch nicht mehr kommen.

About Falstaff

90 / 100 Tom Cannavan

2002 Vintage Tasted: Jan 2004

(2004) Powerful, but poised and rounded on the nose with delightful, deep, cherry and vanilla-tinged, plummy fruit. Lovely polish: the palate is savoury and dense, very supple with layers of fruit, soft, chewy tannins and a balanced, cedary tannic component. It is delightful, but I possibly prefer the 1er Cru at a couple of hundred pounds less.
