A View from the Cellar: 91 Points

"The 2022 Mes Favorites is a bit riper and more powerful in style than the 2023 version, but Jean-Luc Burguet has still made a lovely bottle from his old vines in Gevrey. The bouquet is deep, nascently complex and quite black fruity in personality this year, offering up scents of dark berries, cassis, coffee bean, a fine base of dark soil tones, grilled meats, cedary oak and plenty of upper register smokiness. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and ripe, with a rock solid core of fruit, fine soil signature, well-integrated, chewy tannins and fine focus and balance on the long and nascently complex finish. Good juice in the riper style of the domaine."-John Gilman

Vinous: 91-93 Points

"The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Favorites Vieilles Vignes opens with gorgeous aromatics. Exotic and yet also quite delicate, the 2022 has so much to offer. Kirsch, sweet red cherry, rose petal, blood orange and spice. In many vintages Mes Favorites can be quite powerful, but judging from this barrel sample, the 2022 looks to be on the delicate side. The last of this fruit, from parcels that are as much as 75 years old, did not come in until 10/15, very late by the standards of the year."-Antonio Galloni

Burghound: 90-92 Points

"The wood treatment remains subtle though by no means imperceptible on the spicier aromas of mostly red berries. The richer and more concentrated medium-bodied flavors possess good power on the more complex, firmer and impressively long finish. This is an excellent, and age worthy, Gevrey villages that is worth checking out."-Allen Meadows
