Jasper Morris, 92-94 Points 

"From the northern end of Gevrey-Chambertin, towards Brochon. One third whole bunch and 25% new wood. Glowing crimson purple, a little bit deeper than Arnaud’s Ma Cuvée. The oak shows a little less, this has a superb richness of fruit which remains totally fresh. All in red fruit. No question but this will make some great bottles. Really long finish.

Wine Advocate, 90-92 Points 

"A terrific effort, the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Cinq Terroirs opens in the glass with aromas of dark berries, rose petals, warm spices and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, its rich core of fruit is framed by ripe, powdery tannins and lively acids." 

Vinous, 90-92 Points 

"The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin "Mes Cinq Terroirs" comes from the north of the appellation near Brochon. Entirely whole bunch with 20% new oak, this has a fragrant bouquet with captivating purity, a real "punters’ nose" (everyone will like it!) The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy tannins, a fine thread of acidity with a flinty, dessicated orange peel tinged finish. Superb." 

Burghound, 89-92 Points 

"Once again there is a pronounced floral influence on the pretty and layered blend of various dark berries, anise, the sauvage and the barest touch of wood. There is both fine volume and intensity to the delineated medium-bodied flavors that deliver excellent length on the youthfully austere finale. This could use a bit more depth, but more will almost certainly develop if given time and overall, this is one to look for. *Outstanding*"
