Noëllat/Georges Vosne-Romanée 1er cru Chaumes 2020

93-96 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Domaine and negociant fruit together so this will be under the negociant label. Maxime thinks the wine has been improved by his purchase of grapes from very old vines of pinot tordu. Beautiful nose, this is high class Vosne from an often overlooked vineyard. This wine brings us back to the effortless level, with good acidity at the back, plenty of fruit weight and a very persistent finish. The aromatics remain delicious, light on their feet. (Nov 2021)"

91-93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Vosne-Romanée Les Chaumes 1er Cru is very expressive on the nose with raspberry, briary and a touch of crushed stone, hints of orange pith. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity, quite strict towards the finish but with commendable length. Fine, but this will need 4-6 years in bottle. Drink: 2026-2046. (Dec 2021)"

'Very Fine,' Steen Öhman (Winehog): "The Vosne-Romanee Les Chaumes 2020 is a hedonistic joy. Not the most detailed of wines, but the juicy and lively mid-palate ensures a joyful time when rapidly emptying the bottle. The 2020 is on the richer and denser side, but nonetheless keeps its airiness and lightness. Drink from 2032. (7/19/21)"
