Domaine Michel Lafarge Côte de Beaune Villages 2017

“A super-fresh nose speaks primarily of essence of red pinot fruit, spice and a whisper of earth. The racy and impressively intense flavors possess fine detail though the dusty finish evidences just a hint of edginess. This may round out but that is not a given.” – Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Hubert Lignier Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin “En Reniard” Village 2017

"Once again there is a certain restraint to the reticent if nicely layered aromas of plum, earth and a hint of the sauvage. There is better density to the vibrant medium-bodied flavors that possess better depth and persistence on the robust, powerful and somewhat coarse finish. This is very Gevrey in basic character as is notably more structured as well." - Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Méo-Camuzet Clos de Vougeot “Près le Cellier” Grand Cru 2017

"Much more subtle oak treatment sets off the pretty and airy aromas of various red berries, lavender and soft earth scents. The generously proportioned and attractively detailed middle weight flavors are prettier than they are deep though this is not to say that they lack density on the persistent and youthfully austere finale. I quite like this and particularly for its sense of harmony but good as it is, it's clearly not at the same level as the Rognets. However, if the cuvée of Grand Maupertuis (reviewed just below) is included here, I would expect that to improve the overall quality." - Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Jean Grivot Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2017

"Here the less expressive nose flirts with reduction though a wisp of red berry fruit is discernible so I would suggest decanting this if you're game to try a bottle young. Otherwise the succulent and nicely rich flavors are blessed with abundant amounts of dry extract that coats the palate and buffers the moderately firm tannic spine on the youthfully austere and sneaky long finish." - Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Robert Groffier Chambolle-Musigny “Les Sentiers” Premier Cru 2017

"The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Sentiers 1er Cru comes from a parcel of 80-year-old vines, containing 25% whole bunch fruit and matured in 75% new oak. The bouquet is completely different from Les Hauts Doix, displaying more density, darker fruit, more substance and a less airy style, but still very pure and detailed. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. There is plenty of lightly spiced black fruit, gentle grip, an appealing sense of symmetry and a longer tail on the finish than the Les Haut Doix. Superb." - Neal Martin, Antonio Galloni's Vinous

Domaine Jean Grivot Nuits St. Georges “Les Charmois” Village 2017

"Relatively firm reduction masks the nose today. Otherwise there is a bit more mid-palate density to the still supple medium weight flavors that are also agreeably energetic on the lingering finish that is sufficiently pliant such that this too could be enjoyed in its youth." - Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Robert Groffier Chambolle-Musigny “Les Hauts Doix” Premier Cru 2017

"The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Hauts Doix 1er Cru comes from 70-year-old vines, including 50% whole bunches, matured in 25% new oak. This has a very floral bouquet, already open and welcoming, with pressed rose petals infusing, almost dictating, the vibrant red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy red fruit. Not a light Chambolle-Musigny per se, yet nimble and light on its toes, with an unprepossessing, detailed, tart finish and a dash of white pepper on the aftertaste. This will probably drink earlier than Groffier’s other 2017s but should still offer 15 years of drinking pleasure." - Neal Martin, Antonio Galloni's Vinous
