Critics Ratings

'Light and gentle and easy and well balanced. All about restraint. Lots of juicy fruit but very subtle. Not cheap though!' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Jan 2013)

'This vineyard is a monopole of nearly 10ha in Premeaux-Prissey, at the very bottom of the Côte, just before Comblanchien. Although this section has a reputation for rustic wines, Frédéric Mugnier's winemaking has worked wonders here, with the destemmed fruit and gentle extraction producing a wine with an almost ethereal fruit, and just a hint of 'good bitterness'. Marvellously complex and capable of ageing. Drinking Window 2024 - 2039.' - Charles Curtis MW, Decanter.com, 92/100 (Oct 2020)

'The 2011 Nuits St. Georges Clos de Marechale (red) has a wonderful bouquet with brambly black and red fruit, a touch of truffle and a scent of the sea. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins - unassuming at first, but building in the mouth toward a structured, focused, almost symmetrical finish that delivers a long, satisfying, lightly peppered aftertaste that is classic in style. Excellent. Drink 2015-2025+.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 91/100 (Oct 2013)
