BH 90-93 (1/2024): ( from a .40 ha holding of 65+ year old vines.) This beauty is even more floral-suffused with its array of black raspberry, spice and soft wood nuances. The plush, even seductively textured flavors possess a bit more size, weight and power if not quite the same minerality on the complex, balanced and sneaky long finish. This is sufficiently structured to repay a decade plus of keeping yet it could be approached after only 4 to 5 years. Drink 2032+. Outstanding! |

BH 91-94 (1/2024): (from a 1.80 ha holding.) Moderate reduction masks everything but traces of wood and spice. More interesting are the vibrant and super-fresh medium-bodied flavors that possess fine mid-palate density while concluding in a firm, serious and impeccably well-balanced finale where touches of minerality and rusticity slowly emerges. This is also very promising. Drink 2034+. Outstanding! |

BH 90-92 (1/2024): (from the tiny .41 ha premier cru section.) Here too a discreet application of wood sets off ripe dark pinot fruit, newly turned earth and once again, a plethora of floral nuances. The super-sleek and even more refined if notably less powerful middleweight flavors conclude in an impressively long and youthfully austere finale. This could use more depth but that should just be a matter of patience. Drink 2030+. |

BH 89-92 (1/2024): A perfumed, ripe and airy nose features notes of just sliced plum, spice and plenty of floral influence, especially violet. The rich and moderately powerful medium-bodied flavors coat the palate with sappy dry extract on the serious, firm and built-to-age finale where a touch of rusticity is present. This is an excellent Nuits villages and worth checking out. Drink 2032+. Outstanding Top Value! |

Vosne Romanee ex-Domaine |

BH 89-91 (1/2024): ( from roughly equal proportions of Les Raviolles, Croix Blanches and Les Hauts Beaux Monts.) This is the first wine to display any appreciable reduction and it's enough to mask everything except a touch of wood influence. By contrast, there is excellent verve and freshness to the utterly delicious and succulent medium-bodied flavors that exhibit a mildly touch of rusticity on the dusty, austere and lingering finish. While this could also use better depth, good development potential appears to be present. Drink 2030+. Outstanding! |
