94 Points - Decanter: Lovely and ripe cassis fruit, in a silky yet dense texture, balanced by abundant freshness that leads to a pleasant persistence on the finish. Produced from two parcels, one that passes from Baudes Basses to Baudes Hautes, and the other in Grand Maupertuis. The total is 0.71ha and harvest began on the 31st August. A long, slow fermentation in conical wooden vats and ageing in cask (60% new).
92-92 Points - Vinous: The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru offers a mélange of red and black fruit on the nose, touches of tobacco and sous-bois, quite well-defined and showing more terroir expression than the preceeding Malconsorts. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins on the entry, fine structure, good acidity, slightly candied with veins of blood orange and marmalade towards the grippy finish. This should age well in bottle.
