Critics Ratings

2010

'This is ripe yet quite cool and airy with its ultra-pure blend of red currant, plum and violet aromas. There is plenty of pungent Gevrey style earth on the seductive and strikingly refined medium-bodied flavors that are also supported by impressive mature tannins that are pushed to the background by the copious amount of dry extract. I very much like the delivery as the tannins are quite finely grained though dense and the overall sense of harmony is entirely beguiling.' - Allen Meadows Burghound.com 91-93

2011

'The 2011 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cherbaudes wraps around the palate with serious depth and volume. Today the Cherbaudes is intense, resonant and expressive. I imagine it will drink well fairly early, but at the same time, there is more than enough stuffing to allow for a number of years of fine drinking. Drinking window 2015 - 2031.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 91-93/100 (Mar 2014)

'The 2011 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Cherbaudes has a feminine, lifted bouquet that is very fragrant with cold stone and spice. This has a lovely voluminous palate adorned with immense precision, fresh acidity and lovely tension and race toward the finish. Full of vigor and minerality, the Cherbaudes is one of Jean-Marie's finest 2011s. Drink 2014-2023.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 94/100 (Aug 2013)
