94 Points - Jasper Morris

There are three plots of 70 to 120 year-old vines, the oldest in En Champs, which make up the Tres Vieilles Vignes cuvee. 50% whole bunch vinification of the pedicel variety. Mid purple, with a lifted bouquet, very floral on the nose, ahead of the fruit. Thee is a saline note as well, adding complexity, and a touch of liquorice. This wine will take tiem to come together but will be very rewarding. When it does. Drink from 2030-2037. Barrel Sample: 91-94

93 Points - Vinous

The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Tres Vieilles Vignes comes from 80 to 100-year-old vines from three lieux-dits, including 60% whole bunches with the main stem removed manually and 30% new oak. The very well-defined nose offers lavender-tinged black fruit, potpourri and white pepper. The palate is well-defined with crisp tannins, a melange of red and black fruit and a healthy sprinkling of white pepper on the finish. Excellent.Barrel Sample: 91-93
