Vinous (92-94)The 2019 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru has a clean, precise bouquet of red cherry and wild strawberry aromas, nicely focused, with pressed iris petals emerging with time. The palate is very well balanced, the two-thirds whole cluster well integrated, with a persistent and very elegant finish. This is how to make a Clos du Roi. |

Vinous (90-92)Containing 50% whole cluster, the 2021 Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru has a light but fresh redcurrant and raspberry nose with sous-bois and hints of Earl Grey. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, certainly lighter in style but balanced with an "airy" finish. This should be approachable after just a couple of years. |

Tim Atkin MW (94)Broad and on the rich side (what you expect from Meursault) this is a white that's marked by the vintage conditions, with slight phenolics from thick skins, and notes of fresh hay and honey. It's a rich, concentrated wine, but there's enough acidity to prevent it from seeming ponderous and flabby. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2018 Meursault Les Perrières 1er Cru It has an intense bouquet – like other Meursaults from de Montille, carrying a little reduction, but with more crushed stone, mineralité and white flower scents than the Les Porusots. The palate is well balanced with impressive depth, tension and vigor, offering citrus lemon and orange pith mixed with hazelnut toward the sustained finish. Excellent. |

Vinous (88)(winemaker Brian Sieve used a bit less young oak for this wine in 2016 than in '17): Medium yellow. Nectarine and smoky oak on the fresh nose, plus a hint of hazelnut. Rich, silky, showy wine with subtle sweetness to its peach and apricot fruit. A soft, classic Meursault with good material and thickness as well as sound acidity and definition. |

Vinous (88-90)The 2018 Meursault "St. Christophe" is a blend of three vineyards and sees slightly less new oak that other cuvées from de Montille. There is just a slight reduction on the nose, which develops light menthol notes with aeration. The palate is easygoing, perhaps a bit commercial in style, but there is nothing wrong with that. Finishes pleasantly peachy. Drink over the next five or six years. |

Vinous (86-88)Sourced from Les Petit Charrons and Les Castet, the 2019 Meursault "St. Christophe" has a tightly wound bouquet that lacks flair compared to some of the other Meursaults from de Montille. The palate is well balanced and more expressive, offering tangerine and light grapefruit notes and a touch of ginger toward the finish. Hopefully the aromatics will find their voice by the time of bottling. |

It has a refined and quite backward bouquet that demands encouragement, light sous-bois and crushed limestone scents percolating through the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit. A firm grip in the mouth with a light oyster shell influence defining what is a very detailed and persistent finish. Very good potential here - superb. |

Vinous (87-89)The 2018 Pommard Les Grands Epenots 1er Cru is missing a little definition on the nose, which is rather disjointed at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and well-judged acidity. Missing some complexity on the admittedly quite elegant finish. Drink this before the other Pommards. |

Vinous (87-89)Good full red. Red cherry aroma. Juicy but on the lean side, with a cool minty quality and less volume and texture than the Taillepieds. Less serious than the Taillepieds but this offers enticing, subtly sweet fruit. With its less serious structure, this should also offer early appeal. |

Wine Advocate (93)The 2009 Pommard Les Pezerolles is rich, round and seductive. Layers of fruit caress the palate in this enveloping, textured Burgundy. There is plenty of intensity in the glass. Hints of hard candy and licorice wrap around the finish. The Pezerolles was made with 100% destemmed fruit. Although I like the wine’s frank immediacy, I also think it will age gracefully. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2029. |

Vinous (92)(vinified with 50% whole clusters): Good deep red. Initially restrained nose opened somewhat with air to show aromas of redcurrant and flowers. Boasts excellent intensity and savory soil character but a bit medicinal and closed in on itself today, showing sound acidity but little easy sweetness; comes across as a bit tougher and more medicinal than the Volnay Mitans, without that wine's obvious class. But this very firmly structured wine finishes with slowly mounting persistence and surprisingly ripe, suave tannins, and should be long-lived. |
