This climat of the “Champs au pied du mont” borders the 1er crus “Aux Cras” and “Les Teurons”. It climbs the hillside over an area of 2.06 hectares facing due east. The soils are composed of clay on the bottom with a high concentration of iron on the top, which brings out smoky notes. The grapes are harvested by hand in small crates then sorted and completely destemmed. Fermentation took place for 21 days in open wooden vats. The Domaine carried out a punching down twice a day during the alcoholic fermentation. The malolactic fermentation is carried out at 100%, aging for 20 months in oak barrels.
The color is dark ruby red with intense purple hues. Pleasant, the nose reveals roasted and liquorice notes evolving with aeration on notes of very ripe black cherry. Beautiful sapidity on the palate, the wine is rich and greedy with superb freshness and crunchy tannins. Slightly spicy finish.
“The 2018 Beaune Champs Pimonts 1er Cru is de-stemmed and matured in 25% new oak. That wood is showing more conspicuously than in the other Beaune crus and will need time to be assimilated. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, quite fleshy and forward. Lightly spiced red fruit appears toward the finish, which tapers in slightly (possibly closing down for the second winter). Good potential, though.”

Yes, I admit it. I was convinced Prieur had screwed up by placing the 2002 Clos Vougeot after his Chambertin and Musigny, particularly after tasting the heights they achieved in this stellar vintage. I was wrong, it deserved the place of honor. Monstrous amounts of spices imbued with blackberries are found in its powerful aromatics. It is full-bodied, revealing a massive breadth, a liqueur of syrupy cassis and blackberries that linger seemingly forever in the mouth. Its broad shoulders, perfect ripeness, and fabulous density of fruit must be experienced to be believed. This stunning wine melds super-ripe characteristics with exquisite balance, nobility with boisterousness. Bravo! (PR) (6/2004)

Bright and pure, evoking cherry and floral notes on an elegant frame. Though sleek, there’s a firm base of tannins and bright acidity underneath, so this should develop well. A powerful finish. (BS) (5/2005)

Huge and serious wine with firm but very ripe tannins. This is wonderful and powerful, oozing rich black fruits and seduction. (RV) (9/2004)

***Cellar Selection*** One of the greatest wines of the ’96 red Burgundy vintage. Magnificent and multilayered, this full-bodied grand cru delivers mind-boggling complexity, marrying ripe plum, licorice and blackberry character with–and this is the beauty of it–masses of terroir-driven mineral, iron and wet earth. Delicious now, but has the stuffing to last. (PM) (9/1998)

This is quite deeply colored for a ’96 and evidences no bricking after 13 years. Perhaps the best part of this wine is the nose, which is warm, inviting, seductive and gorgeously complex with abundant spice notes and really lovely elegance though there is also much to be said for the rich and phenolically ripe flavors that coat the palate with velvet on the broad and surprisingly round finish. I say surprisingly because there was none of the typical ’96 edginess or green acidity and while this will certainly continue to hold, I would be drinking this now and over the next ten years. An excellent wine in the context of a variable vintage. Tasted twice with similar notes. (AM) (12/2012)

The 1996 Musigny from Jacques Prieur must represent one of their finest wines that decade, and it has reached a perfect equilibrium almost 20 years on. Deep in color, it has a luscious mulberry, raspberry preserve and undergrowth scented bouquet that is beautifully defined, with hints of lavender emerging with continued aeration. The palate has plenty of sweetness, fine tannin and impressive depth. What is most entrancing is the purity in evidence here, and the the manner in which it just winds down towards an elegant finish. Pierre Rovani enthused about this Musigny upon release; I am inclined to agree with him. (NM) (10/2015)

Complex, soil-inflected aromas of raspberry, redcurrant, mocha, smoke, dried rose, licorice and menthol. Silky and rather delicate for Chambertin, with exotic cherry liqueur and raspberry flavors lifted by spices and complicated by a saline element. The very long finish features suave tannins and strong stony minerality. Lovely understated Chambertin with the balance to age well.

Burghound : 90 – 93 points
(90-93 points) A slightly riper nose is not quite as elegant but it’s even more complex and much more floral with its mix of pear, apple, passion fruit and spicy white peach. There is better mid-palate volume though not the same minerality suffusing the medium-bodied flavors that possess a highly refined texture, all wrapped in a beautifully long finale. This will also need time in bottle to develop better depth, but the potential appears to be present.

Burghound : 92-94 points
A commendably subtle application of wood easily allows the super-fresh aromas of Granny Smith apples, lemongrass and white floral scents to be appreciated. There is arguably even better richness to the almost painfully intense and vibrant big-bodied flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the overtly stony, muscular, chiseled and linear finish. This excellent effort is presently very compact and is going to require at least 5-ish years to flesh out and unwind but it should be well-worth the wait.

This too is agreeably fresh with its nose of red berry fruit liqueur tinged with discreet spice wisps. The lilting and nicely tension-filled flavors possess good mid-palate density along with better detail on the lightly mineral-inflected, raspy and rustic finish that also reflects a touch of bitter pit fruit character.

Clos des Lambrays is one of the five Grand Crus of the commune of Morey-Saint-Denis, and produces wines that are probably the most typical. Domaine des Lambrays owns almost all of Clos des Lambrays, only a very small part belongs to Domaine Taupenot-Merme. Full-bodied, concentrated and remarkably elegant, the Clos des Lambrays has a rare and complex aroma: notes of blackberry, blueberry and raspberry, and as it ages, undertones of truffle, spices, liquorice, violet and undergrowth. Its ageing potential is generally above 20 years.

The 2014 Echézeaux Grand Cru, matured entirely in new oak, has a gorgeous black cherry, raspberry coulis and mineral-infused bouquet, coiled tightly at first but unfurling with each swirl of the glass. The palate is well structured, a Grand Cru with admirable backbone. There is patently impressive depth with multi-layered red and black fruit, edging towards something more rich and dense towards the persistent finish. Emmanuel Rouget was surprised when I opined a preference for his Cros Parantoux this year, so obviously he is a big fan. And yes, this is an excellent grand cru, yet it does not possess quite the same nervosité as the Parantoux.
