Reviewed December 2021
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux 1er Cru contains 50% whole bunch with one-third new oak, the fruit from the four corners of the climat, low yields in this vintage. The nose is very well defined but tightly packed bouquet, crushed limestone scents filtering through the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a silky smooth texture on the entry. Finely poised, elegant yet intense, this is endowed with sorbet-like vitality and energy on the finish. Excellent. (NM)

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Champeaux is more brooding and introverted, unwinding in the glass to reveal aromas of dark berries, raspberries, warm spices and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, layered and muscular, it's concentrated and tightly wound. This is a terrific effort but it will require patience. (WK)

Burghound

Review Date: 01/2022
A slightly riper though still agreeably fresh nose blends notes of poached plum, cassis, earth and a top note of dried lavender. The rich, dense and powerful larger-scaled flavors also enjoy excellent concentration thanks to the palate coating dry extract that also buffers the firm tannic spine shaping the impressively long finale. This is one of those wines that should reward 12 to 15 years of cellaring yet is not so tightly wound that it couldn't be approached after 5 to 7 or so years. *Burghound Outstanding!*

Notes

93-96pts Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy: "50% new wood and 50% whole bunch. Very old vines always done by hand or horse. Arnaud sees the difference in the soil, much lighter and finer. Rich deep purple, with a beautiful elegance to the bouquet, ripe fruit with a floral top note, ripe but strikingly balanced, very long and fine with good acidity. Shows a touch more oak but this will calm down. What purity, finesse and length. Tasted: December 2021."
