95-97 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsorts 1er Cru has a clean and precise bouquet, more low-key and understated than the Les Beaux Monts, the fruit profile leaning more towards the red side of the fruit spectrum. The stem addition is barely recognizable. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins. Sapid and refined, it gently builds in the mouth towards a tensile, focused finish. This beautiful Malconsorts will age beautifully over 20 to 25 years and more. Drink: 2028-2052. (Jan 2024)"
96 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "The 2022 Malconsorts from Dujac is an impressive, monumental wine with concentrated red and black fruit aromas touched with herbal, floral and spice aromas from the use of whole clusters in the ferment (85%). The tannins are firm but not astringent, and there is a lovely depth to the wine that is a testament to the quality of this terroir. The grapes come from more than 1.5 hectares at the northern edge of Malconsorts, which overlaps into Gaudichots, although this is not indicated on the label. Ideally, wait seven to 10 years before drinking. Drinking Window: 2035-2075. (11/2/23)"
93-96 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "Deep and brooding, the 2022 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts unwinds in the glass with aromas of plums, wild berries, rose petals, smoked duck and hoisin sauce, followed by a full-bodied, layered and muscular palate that's structured and concentrated, built around lively acids and rich, powdery tannins. In what is overall a charming vintage, this is one cuvée that will certainly demand patience. (1/18/24)"
93-96 points/'Don't miss!' Allen Meadows (Burghound) "(from a 1.57 ha parcel). An expressive and super-spicy nose is very Vosne-like with its aromas of violet, dark cherry, sandalwood and tea that are trimmed in just enough wood to comment on. As is usually the case, there is more volume and richness if slightly less minerality to the generously proportioned and overtly powerful big-bodied flavors that conclude in an exceptionally firm and serious finish that delivers sensational length. This is terrific and potentially the best Dujac Malconsorts they've made since the brilliant 2015. Drink: 2037+. (Jan 2024)"
93-96 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "A rich intense purple. The bouquet has the enhanced heady qualities I associate with Malconsorts. Some peonies perhaps, then a lush but stable fruit across the palate, with a wealth behind, which does indeed cover the tannins. Persistent. This Malconsorts is a firmly constructed wine with stable tannins, also the flesh to cover them. (Nov 2023)"
93-94 points/'Very Fine+,' Steen Öhman (Winehog): "The Malconsorts is a terrific wine balancing elegantly on the (correct side of the) extraction edge – well done. It is denser, with intense Vosne spiciness, and delicate, but with a firm structure. Malconsorts is not a ballet dancer, but rather a heptathlete mastering all disciplines. Good energy and phenolic ripeness. Drink from 2038. (1/22/24)"
