Critics Ratings

‘(with thanks to Pat Dukes). There is a discreet herbal tea element to the super-fresh and beautifully elegant nose that strikes me as being right at an inflection point where the aromas are now turning toward the secondary. There is a really lovely underlying tension to the dense and mineral-driven medium weight flavors that possess a sophisticated texture, all wrapped in an admirably long and balanced if ever-so-slightly lean finish that belies a trace of austerity. For my taste, this super-clean tasting effort has largely arrived at the front edge of its peak drinkability though it should easily hold there for another decade.’ - Allen Meadows, Burghound, 91/100 (Jan 2023)

‘Light to medium colour with pale rim. The bouquet suggests maturity. On the palate the fruit is a little fresher, cherry stones griottes, the acidity is now nicely integrated and the length is there. Good result in a difficult year, building nicely to the back.’ - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy, 91/100 (June 2018)‘

'The 2008 Nuits St. Georges Clos de la Maréchale offers up black cherries, sweet spices, flowers and licorice, all of which meld together beautifully in a weightless, impeccably elegant style. Floral, minty notes add complexity and nuance on the refined finish.’ - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 92/100 (May 2011)
