Vinous: 90-92 Points

Cropped at a measly 18hl/ha the 2021 Maranges Clos de la Boutière 1er Cru has an attractive bouquet with vibrant dark cherry crushed strawberry and light vanillary scents. The palate is medium-bodied with quite "thick" tannins that lend this real weight and density; a burly Maranges in a positive sense even if it does miss a bit of nuance on the finish. Cellar it for a couple of years. (Drink between 2025-2040)

Burghound: 89-91 Points

An earthier and more somber nose reluctantly displays its aromas of purple fruit especially plum. There is more volume to the rich velvety and solidly concentrated flavors that are more powerful and less refined on the solidly persistent and slightly firmer finale. This is also worth considering. (Drink starting 2027)
