91-94 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Fine rich purple, with a very elegant, precise nose. Almost a Vosne of a Chambolle. Then the wine becomes quite powerful and punchy on the palate, with high class fruit, the oak (50% new) just a touch present but better integrated than the Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru. Tasted: November 2018."

91-93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2017 Chambolle-Musigny Les Gruenchers 1er Cru, made from purchased fruit and matured in 50% new oak, has a well-defined bouquet of perfumed dark cherry, blueberry and light black currant fruit, becoming more floral with aeration. The oak here is nicely integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, crunchy tannin, a slightly chalky texture and fine delineation toward the finish. Very fine. Drink: 2020-2035. (Jan 2019)"

From a tiny 0.21 hectare plot immediately adjacent to Carrières, this may be the fullest of the Chambolle 1ers, taking on an almost Vosne-like quality with its power and darker fruit qualities. Out of barrel this was tremendous and it is one I will personally be stocking up extra on in 2017. Four barrels produced.
