Jasper Morris: 93-96 Points

For the first time the Boudots is half young vines and half old so needs to be picked earlier than in the past. A bright mid purple there is an impressive intensity to the fruit half red berries half darker raspberry half Nuits and half Vosne. This is not too bulky too massive but entirely harmonious with a long fine and fresh finish.

Burghound: 92-95 Points

A wonderfully spicy and broad-ranging nose is comprised by notes of purple fruit earth exotic tea and a floral top note. There is both first-rate density and powerful to the sappy big-bodied flavors that coat the palate with dry extract that also buffers the firm tannic spine shaping the beautifully persistent finish. This is terrific and a wine that should age effortlessly. (Drink starting 2034)

Decanter: 95 Points

A stone's throw from Malconsorts which borders to the south Grivot's Nuits Boudots is always a definite step up in this cellar with more depth and density on the palate and concentrated plummy fruit with notes of spice and smoke that linger through the impressively long finish. The grapes from Grivot's 0.85-hectare holding are carefully destemmed and fermented at a reasonably cool temperature with minimal extraction to maintain the silkiness of the fruit: 'I have always worked the wines in verticality' according to Etienne Grivot. (Drink between 2030-2065)
