Burghound (93)(from Les Baudes Basses). Like the Vosne-Romanée “Petits Monts”, there is a hint of mocha to the ripe plum, red berry earth and moderate wood-suffused nose. The rich, full-bodied and powerful flavors possess good if not special mid-palate density as well as solid energy that carries over to the youthfully austere, firm and built-to-age finale that exhibits lovely balance. This is also quite good and a wine that should amply repay extended keeping. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)Deep crimson colour. A very lively fruit here, all in red berries. Good tension here, a few drops of a darker fruit but this remains mostly in a bright red profile, fresh but not firm tannins and very good length. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Burghound (93)(from the climats of Les Treux and Clos St. Denis). This is also trimmed in enough wood to notice on the beautifully layered nose of both red and dark currant, exotic tea, spice and floral wisps. The exceptionally rich and nicely textured medium weight plus flavors are shaped by dense but fine tannins on the mouthcoating and lingering finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth. This too offers excellent development potential and it’s just as well because it definitely needs to add depth with time in bottle. |

Burgundy | 1 | 95-97 (IB) | $1,535.00 | |||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-97)A more energetic ruby crimson, with a sweeter perfumed fruit. Flowers and raspberries. Delicious energy throughout and light on its feet. Maybe less immediately striking than Gaudichots but I think it is the finer of the two. I love the aftertaste. Drink from 2030-2040. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Burgundy | 1 | 88 (BH) | $686.00 | |||||
Burghound (88)(from Clos Solon and Les Crais). A subtle but not imperceptible dollop of wood sets off more elegant aromas of floral wisps and various red berries, in particular currant. The sleeker and more refined medium weight flavors display good length on the mildly austere and only slightly rustic finale. This too could be enjoyed young but 4 to 7 years of keeping should help to develop more depth. |

Burgundy | 1 | 91 (IB) | $228.00 | |||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91)Mostly from Les Crais. A medium density of crimson to the colour. A bit of crushed strawberry, with good concentration, keeps swimming across the palate, balanced tannins, fine length. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Burgundy | 1 | 91 (BH) | $442.00 | |||||
Burghound (91)(from vines planted between 1937 and 1942). This is also attractively floral in character with its nose of red and dark currant and more obvious earth influence that is also trimmed in moderate wood. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the fleshy yet nicely detailed medium-bodied flavors that flash evident minerality on the dusty and youthfully austere finale where the supporting tannic spine is even finer. This is quite good with fine development potential yet it should also drink reasonably well young. |

Burgundy | 2 | 92-94 (IB) | $521.00 | |||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)A little more depth of colour, crimson ruby. Dark cherry and plum, with some concentration while remaining accessible. Exemplary for this middle section of Nuits, with ripe tannins, good length. Drink from 2031-2037. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Burgundy | 3 | 92-95 (IB) | $615.00 | |||||
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)Medium deep crimson. The bouquet goes back to the ripe strawberry style. Quite some structure here and a sense of depth with darker fruit beneath. While this Les St-Georges seemed simple at first, it has gained energy towards the back. Drink from 2032-2038. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Burgundy | 1 | 89 (BH) | $716.00 | |||||
Burghound (89)(from Prémeaux fruit in Les Topons, Plantes au Baron and Les Charbonnières). A more floralsuffused nose speaks mostly of a spicy blend of red and dark cherry along with a whiff of the sauvage. There is a bit more size, weight and power to the medium-bodied flavors that possess a lovely texture that isn’t necessarily especially refined though neither is it overtly rustic on the lingering and more structured finale. One to consider. |

Vinous (91-94)(13.3 alcohol; 40% vendange entier; 80% new oak; no frost): Good dark red. A bit redder and more showy in its fruit character and less medicinal on the nose than the Petits Monts. Rounder and sweeter in the mouth, with a palate-saturating flavor of dark cherry confiture. Builds impressively on the ripely tannic back end, with a strong violet note emerging. Very different from the Petits Monts in shape and style: this is rounder while the Petits Monts is more minerally and upright. |

Burgundy | 1 | 94 (BH) | $2,370.00 | |||||
Burghound (94)(from a .30 ha parcel of vines). Elegant, pure and exuberantly spicy aromas are trimmed in both a plenitude of floral elements and enough wood to notice. The gorgeously textured medium weight flavors also exude a prominent bead of minerality on the equally firm, moderately austere and impressively persistent finish that displays focused power. This serious, compact and powerful effort also contrasts a velvety mid-palate with a robust but importantly, not rustic finale. Excellent but note well that this is not a candidate for early drinking. |

Drink from 2031-2038. Tasted Dec 2024. |

Burgundy | 1 | 89 (BH) | $862.00 | |||||
Burghound (89)(from 10 separate parcels of vines, most of which are located in the lower section of Flagey). Here the expressive and slightly riper nose is spicier still with its markedly floral nose that reflects notes of violet, lavender and rose petal on the black cherry and kirsch nuances. The suave, concentrated and seductively textured middleweight flavors where the velvety mouthfeel contrasts somewhat with the firm, serious and robust finale that exhibits excellent length. This will definitely need time but the quality is impressive for a villages-level wine. |
