90-92 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Destemmed by the pedicel method. Mid purple, not as deep as the Marsannay. A pleasing fresh strawberry note here, with good energy, slightly saline, even a touch of orange zest. Fresh acidity to finish. Drink from 2025-2030. Tasted: December 2022."

89-91 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(Here too the nose is firmly reduced. The racy, delineated and refined flavors possess fine length and balance on the less obviously austere finale. This could use better depth though it should be able to develop more in time. A classic La Justice of finesse. Drink: 2027+. (Jan 2023)"

Being located on the "wrong side" of the D974 would suggest "La Justice" should be of little interest. However, a fault line of limestone runs directly through the vineyard. That, combined with sandy topsoil, allows for great drainage, which makes this one the best non-premier cru vineyards in Gevrey. Tasted blind, many people would (and do) mistake it for 1er cru Chambolle as it combines both depth and elegance unique to other vineyards in Gevrey.
