Vinous (93)Very ripe if youthfully subdued aromas of black raspberry, licorice and bitter chocolate. Rich, lush and sweet, boasting terrific density to its flavors of blueberry, black raspberry and tropical dark chocolate. Finishes dry, broad and firm, with substantial fine-grained, ripe tannins and a healthy edge of acidity. |

Burgundy | 1 | 91-93 (VN) | $214.00 | |||||
Vinous (91-93)(the Humberts' vines are situated on rocky soil in the northern section of Mazoyères-Chambertin): Slightly high-toned aromas of black raspberry, currant, rocks and licorice pastille, plus a sexy note of smoky oak. The fattest and sweetest of this 2013 collection, already showing a lot of early personality to its dark fruit and licorice flavors. Turns tougher and stonier on the rather powerful, tannic back end. I can certainly envision this wine shutting down in the bottle. |

Vinous (93)Healthy dark red. Aromas and flavors of crushed black raspberry, coffee, licorice and sweet oak spices; smells creamier than the Poissenots. Fat, sweet and deep on the palate, conveying near-grand cru volume and a wonderfully silky texture. This big boy finishes very long, with fine-grained but firm tannins. |

Burgundy | 1 | 90-93 (VN) | $134.00 | |||||
Vinous (90-93)(from 65-year-old vines): Bright, deep red. Medicinal black cherry and minerals on the reticent nose. Densely packed and youthfully imploded, showing little in the way of early sweetness. The pungent black cherry, blackberry and licorice flavors show terrific clarity and class but will require extended aging to blossom in bottle. The tannins spread out to saturate the entire palate on the long, perfumed, violet-tinged finish. |

Burgundy | 1 | 92+ (VN) | $126.00 | |||||
Vinous (92+)Dark red with ruby tones. As primary as a barrel sample today, conveying a slightly reductive quality, not to mention a touch of rusticity, to the aromas and flavors of black fruits, dark chocolate, licorice and leather. Very rich, deep premier cru with strong salty minerality and an obvious oak element to its tannins. This is the longest and most perfumed 2014 to this point in my tasting. |

Burgundy | 1 | 91-93 (VN) | $790.00 | |||||
Vinous (91-93)Impressive dark ruby-red color. Slightly high-toned scents of blackberry, kirsch, crushed stone and licorice complemented by extravagant chocolate and mocha nuances. Strong and sweet on the attack, showing intense, high-toned dark berry, spice and licorice flavors, then firmer and more minerally on the back end, finishing with a serious spine of fine-grained tannins and excellent supporting acidity. |

Burgundy | 1 | 89 (VN) | $142.00 | |||||
Vinous (89)Deep red. Black- and redcurrant, blackberry and licorice on the rather cool nose. Surprisingly supple and slightly high-toned in a positive way, with its blackberry and spice flavors complicated by saline minerality. Offers good stuffing for village wine and finishes tactile, savory and sweet. This wine continued to draw me back for another sip. |

Burgundy | 1 | 88-90 (VN) | $133.00 | |||||
Vinous (88-90)(50% new oak): Good medium-dark red. Slightly reduced aromas of black raspberry, cherry, mocha and minerals; one can sense the cool combe influence (vines in Les Marchais make up about half of this blend). Offers subtle mid-palate sweetness along with serious rocky, salty minerality. Finishes firm but not hard, with good energy and length. Humbert likes this village wine for its taut side in 2016. |
