Vinous - Neal Martin (91-93)The 2023 Volnay Clos des Chênes 1er Cru has a delineated and focused bouquet with a discrete floral element. Its pure red fruit notes gain intensity in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied and nicely poised with grainy tannins, gentle grip and a slight lactic note toward the finish that will be subsumed. Very fine. |

Vinous (91-93)The 2020 Volnay Taillepieds 1er Cru, which includes one-third whole bunch, has a well-defined bouquet with raspberry, briary, touches of sous-bois and a hint of oyster shell. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth tannins. This is very saline with hints of black olive towards the finish. This will be fascinating to watch age in bottle. |

Burghound (90-93)(Outstanding) A cool, pure, airy and appealingly layered nose displays aromas of mostly acacia blossom and lemon-lime, along with a background hint of crushed fennel. There is excellent energy and a gorgeous texture to the medium weight flavors that flash plenty of minerality on the balanced, nicely dry and sneaky long finish that would also benefit from developing better depth. |

Jancis Robinson (17)Cask sample. Delicate citrus aroma with a hint of oak sweetness and spice. Deep, rounded, creamy but with freshness at the core. Chalky freshness, intense and full of tension on the long, dry finish. |

Wine Advocate (92-94)The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes unwinds in the glass with aromas of pastry cream, crisp orchard fruit, honeycomb and white flowers. On the palate, it's full-bodied, broad shouldered and powerful, with a dense, blocky profile that is classic Combettes. When I tasted it, the wine was quite reserved and less advanced in its élevage than most of Carillon's other cuvées, but its potential is clearly considerable. |
