Critics Scores
Burghound
This offers up a most interesting aromatic profile of mint and intense floral notes that add interest to the otherwise very ripe black berry liqueur notes. The seductively textured, round and opulently rich flavors coat the mouth with dry extract yet focus is maintained by the dense but exquisitely fine tannins that add to the overall impression of refinement on the explosively long finish. I quite like this because while here too there is that lovely sense of refinement, there is also good power and character.
Stephen Tanzer
(Mortet owns parcels of old vines in all four corners of the climat; aging in 80 new oak; from a crop level of 27 hectoliters per hectare): Good deep red. Dark raspberry, flowers, spices and a wild note of game on the nose. Large-scaled, fat and creamy, but with lovely tang to the flavors of raspberry, pomegranate and coriander. Ultimately less open today than the premier cru, but juicy, seamless and very long on the aftertaste, with a serious tannic structure that will require aging. This is usually a full degree higher in alcohol than the Lavaux, notes Mortet, but with a low pH.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux floats on the palate with effortless grace in its exquisite red berries, flowers and licorice. Sweet floral notes reappear to frame the refined, almost fleeting finish. This Champeaux is a bit on the delicate side in 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025.
