Denser again, very dark fruit, but it's tensile too - a driving, saline palate. 'les brutal than it used to be', remarks Loïc, and it has lovely length. Drinking range: 2033 - 2050 L&S (Oct 2020)

A much different, and much earthier and more sauvage-inflected nose, grudgingly reveals deeply pitched and ripe aromas of dark berries, plum liqueur and a whiff of oak. Here too there is a relatively fine mouthfeel to the gorgeously textured medium-bodied flavors that exude ample minerality on the firm, serious and youthfully austere finale. Drinking range: 2034 - Rating: 91-94 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2021)
A fine follow-up to the lovely 2018 rendition, Dugat-Py's 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Champeaux opens in the glass with aromas of raspberries and cherries, complemented by hints of violets, smoked meats, rich soil tones and a pretty top note of rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with real texture and mid-palate amplitude, it's lively and penetrating, with a long, fragrant finish. As I've written before, these vines have been in the family for a long time, and the Champeaux was often purchased by Maison Leroy in the days before the Dugat family began domaine bottling. Rating: 92 - 94+ William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Jan 2021)
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Champeaux 1er Cru saw 50% whole bunch with two-thirds new oak. It has a subtle, cerebral bouquet featuring gorgeous black fruit mixed with sea spray, cockle sheds and graphite aromas; this is very classy. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, very intense and energetic, leading to a sorbet-fresh, blood-orange-infused finish that has a lot of potential. Cellar this Champeaux for five or six years if you can, because it has ambition. Drinking range: 2025 - 2050 Rating: 93-95 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Dec 2020)
