Vinous: 95-97 Points
The 2022 Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts 1er Cru has an expressive bouquet not quite as precise as the Aux Brûlées at the moment with more horsepower - a mixture of red and black fruit with a touch of sea spray. The medium-bodied palate has finely chiseled tannins. It is tensile and linear veering more like the Aux Brûlées on the mineral-driven finish. Another superb Premier Cru from Grivot. (Drink between 2027-2050)
Decanter: 96 Points
The 2022 Beaux Monts from Grivot is back on form with a piercing mulberry fruit accented with floral notes and a bit of spice on the attack. The texture is concentrated and pure with impressive freshness for the vintage a lovely depth of flavour and a firm mineral underpinning. The wine is produced from nearly a hectare of vines split between Beaux Monts Bas in Flagey and Beaux Monts Hauts in Vosne and it is generally among the standouts from this domaine. (Drink between 2030-2065)
Jasper Morris: 93-95 Points
A fine bright mid ruby purple. Perfectly poised fruit on the nose this is not massive but it has been beautifully put together a very sensual raspberry fruit with cherry undertones just enough acidity fine tannins. Pure and persistent. ?Charisma pudeur beauty? says Etienne ? ?what we are aiming for in our work.?
dBurghound: 93-95 Points
There is one of the more floral-inflected wines in the range with its aromas of lavender rose petal and lilac and violet that add elegance to the black pinot fruit sandalwood and jasmine tea scents. There is a lovely sense of tension to the finely detailed and overtly stony middleweight flavors that possess a highly sophisticated texture all wrapped in a superbly long balanced and driving finish. This is a stunner of a VRBM. (Drink starting 2034)
