Beaune 1er cru Les Teurons : Plenty of juicy fruit; rounded. Good tension under the palate. It is just nicely concentrated; quite compact and finishes on lively red fruit. Score 17.25. 

Volnay 1er cru En Carelle : This is light, fruity and quite refined. Lightly handled. Pure, soft fruit on this rounded wine which ripples gently across the palate to a fresh finish. Score 17.65  

Volnay 1er cru Clos de la Chapelle monopole : Badly hit by hail. 5 barrels of this from 1/2 hectares, so 23hl/ha. Too little. There is a richness here. Supple and succulent. The juicy fruit has plenty of intensity. It is somewhat battened down. The tannins are fine. It has energy and intensity. It is well defined and channelled. Score 18 From 2018/19  

Volnay 1er cru Taillepieds : 3 barrels from 0.5 hectares...tiny production. This is very compact. So much fruit here; very layered and dense. This is a full and powerful Volnay for Volnay. Dark quartzy, edgy minerality. It has a certain severity, but the density of fruit to balance. Excellent potential. Score 18.5. From 2020  

Pommard 1er cru Les Chanlins vieilles vignes : Steep slope 85-year-old vines with lots of limestone and good drainage. September 16th harvest. 12.2 degrees. Pure, red, straight and decisive aroma. Floral notes. This races across the palate; lucid, tight, racy and well defined. I like the edges. Very neat. It is strict and tense on the finish with sharp-edged minerality to the very end. Very good indeed. Score 18.45.  

Pommard 1er cru Grand Epenots : Flat and deep clay soil. Harvested this year on September 14th at 12.2%. Dark and sweet, ripe blackberry aroma. Notes of bitter chocolate; Very compact. Much more tannin; plenty of tannin, liquorish and powerful. Lot of muscle, but with a second winter it will smooth out...this has the concentration of fruit, extract and balance to repay ageing. Score 18.5+. From 2021  

Corton Rognet Grand Cru : Plenty of red fruit on the nose. Juicy and full attack. Saturated fruit; real sweetness here midpalate. The tannins are smooth and offer support but are in no way assertive. (They used 50% whole bunch for the first time here encouraged by the stalk ripeness). There is freshness and spicy lift at the end of the palate...like that floral lift. Score 18.5. From 2020  

Corton Bressandes Grand Cru : 50% whole bunch here as well. Silky, elegant and pure. A refined textured Corton. It is tight and light and well defined. The tannins are surprisingly refined. The whole bunch has given a floral and fresh note here too. A delightful Bressandes. Score 18.75 From 2020 

Beaune 1er cru Les Reversées : A little flat on the aroma, but it was really warm. Actually on the palate, it was much better; it is rounded, spicy and quite rich, but has decent acidity under the palate, so it was much fresher than I expected from the aroma. Score 17.45  

Pernand-Vergelesses, 1er cru Sous Frétille : Lemony and pure. This has tension and energy. It races cross the palate and had zesty minerals. This is just lovely on the finish. Shimmering, lucid tight and pure and even though the wine was really warm, it had such a singing, fresh finish. Score 17.75/18  

Corton-Charlemagne : Picked on the 21st...whole bunch pressing. This is more closed at the moment.... it comes back after the mid-palate ...much more mineral, austere and tense finish...zesty, lean and chilling. Score 19. From 2022
