Trace of liquorice in the spicy nose. Richly dense but also powerfully driven, with real tension and energy. Silky tannins, and the flavours just get more and more interesting, so gourmand in the little toasty sweetness and lively acid balance. Drinking range: 2027 - 2040 L&S (Nov 2021)

The warmly seductive, rose-garden bouquet wafts into a richly perfumed palate, where a ribbon of silk is entwined with freshness. Its lively frothiness, texture, and aromas capture the essence of Chambolle. Drinking range: 2027 - 2035 Rating: 95-96 World of Fine Wine Magazine (Apr 2022)
Christophe's vines sit in the bottom of this Premier Cru, and they're about 80 years old. Black cherries, currants, match strike and potting soil fuel the dramatic nose. The finish shows mildly firm tannins with invigorating acidity that will nicely hold this wine for years to come. Drinking range: 2024 - 2035 Rating: 95 Christy Canterbury MW - TimAtkin.com (Feb 2022)
(this limited two-barrel cuvée is crafted from 70+ year old vines that abut the Musigny climat of La Combe d'Orveau, which is a monopole of Domaine Jacques Prieur). Here too the strikingly pure nose is cool, restrained and elegant with a huge variety of floral and spice nuances adding breadth to the airy essence of red pinot fruit scents. The wonderfully textured and chiseled medium-bodied flavors exude an almost pungent minerality on the equally persistent and moderately austere finale. This is both classy and very stylish. Drinking range: 2032 - Rating: 93-95 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2022)
Domaine Christophe Perrot-Minot
Christophe Perrot-Minot is now the fourth generation of his family producing wine on the estate after his great grandfather Amédée Merme devoted himself to the management and production of wine over 130 years ago. The estate has gone from strength to strength – always keeping the highest standards. Integrated viticulture has been practiced for many years now which has been adapted especially for the terroir. No herbicide or chemical fertilizer is used, instead, Christophe prefers to “stand back and listen to this terroir, only intervening when necessary or when the weather requires it, never systematically.” This is one of the star domaines of the whole of Burgundy.
