92-93 points/'Fine+,' Steen Öhman (Winehog): "Lively, with a marl-based mineral note, the fruit is delicate with an energetic mid-palate. This has good depth, and is a beautiful wine despite 50% new oak (fortunately quite lightly toasted). From a great terroir, this is charming. Drink from 2034. (2/12/24)"
91-93 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Estournelles St Jacques is pure and ethereal, bursting with aromas of red berries, potpourri, spices and orange rind. Medium to full-bodied, bright and satiny, with melting tannins and a mineral finish, this hillside climat has produced one of the most elegant wines in the range. (1/18/24)"
91-93 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "An attractive crimson colour. The nose is fresh and lightly perfumed, quite floral, on this very white soil. This is fine boned rather than expansive, with still some grainy tannins behind. Will it develop in finesse or remain slightly on the light side? It is quite possible that there will be further upside to this later on. Drink from 2029-2037. Tasted: November 2023."
90-93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .33 ha holding of <55-year-old vines). This is aromatically quite similar to the Champeaux with perhaps just a bit more elegance. The mid-palate mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavors is finer still with more minerality as well that adds a sense of lift to the moderately austere finish where the supporting tannins are firm and slightly angular. I like the balance but this will need time to round off the structure. Drink: 2030+. (Jan 2024)"
