97 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "This wine is superbly silky and seamless, long but not heavy, and distinguished by a marvellously forward blackberry and pomegranate fruit aroma touched with earth and spice. This immense Clos de Vougeot shows power without astringency. The grapes are from the domaine's 0.70 hectares near the château in the spots known as Chioures and La Garenne. The carefully sorted grapes are mostly destemmed and fermented on native yeasts; the wines are currently ageing in cask (half new) and will be bottled after two winters without fining or filtration. Drinking Window: 2025-2060. (Nov 2023)"
96 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Fruity and licorice-flavored, Clos Vougeot offers a civilized profile, full-bodied and restrained. (2025)"
94-96 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "A vivid mid purple. The bouquet suggests some concentration but a youthful hiding of the detail. On the palate, this is clearly extremely well-constructed and the deep red fruit fills the mouth. Tannins are fine boned, and there is enough acidity. Let this age quietly for a decade and a fine Clos V will emerge. (Nov 2023)"
95 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Fabulously fresh in aromas and structure, this smells of crunchy blackberries and black currants mixed with damp bark and brown spices. The dense wine sweeps across the palate with real swagger. The tannins have a lightly gravelly texture, and the acidity makes the palate quiver with freshness. This is a 0.69-hectare holding near the château. (Jan 2024)"
93-95 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2022 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is a deep, broad-shouldered wine, unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet red berries, incense and spices complemented by hints of potpourri and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's lively and youthfully taut, with everything required to reward a bit of patience. (1/18/24)"
93-95 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a tightly wound, mineral-driven bouquet that needs time to gradually unfurl. Black rather than red fruit here. The medium-bodied palate has sappy red fruit, fine depth and good grip. A more sinewy Clos Vougeot that should stand it in good stead for long-term aging. Excellent. Drink: 2026-2048. (Jan 2024)"
92-95 points/'Sweet spot' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from two separate parcels, one to the left of the Château in Garenne and another situated below it in Les Chioure). A beautifully layered and fresh nose offers up notes of essence of plum, rose petal, anise and hints of wood toast, forest floor and the sauvage. Once again there is a lovely and caressing mouthfeel to the medium weight and tautly muscular flavors that possess good delineation and a touch of minerality that adds a touch of lift to the firm, serious and sneaky long finish where a bit of youthful austerity eventually emerges. Drink: 2037+. (Jan 2024)"
