Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2017 Griotte-Chambertin Grand Cru wafts from the glass with aromas of cherries, black raspberries, woodsmoke, cloves and peonies, framed by a deft touch of toasty new oak. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, its satiny and expansive attack segues into an ample but muscular mid-palate, with refined but youthfully assertive tannins making their presence felt on the long, resonant finish. From a small parcel surrounded on three sides by Fourrier's holdings, this is a serious Griotte that will need time.

Very subtle wood surrounds the more elegant and higher-toned aromas of red cherry, pomegranate, spice and a floral whiff. Somewhat surprisingly, the middle weight flavors possess both more volume and refinement while displaying a bit less power on the driving, detailed and complex finish that also betrays a hint of warmth. This is a powerful yet elegant Griotte that is a combination of power and finesse.
Vinous
The 2017 Griottes-Chambertin Grand Cru has more fruit intensity than the Mazis-Chambertin (though maybe not quite the same delineation), offering dark berries, sous-bois, and a hint of dried blood and game that surfaces with time. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, real vibrancy and delineation, marmalade-infused red berry fruit and a peppery aftertaste. It does not quite reach the level I expected from barrel, but remains a great Griottes.
