Wine Advocate: 92-94 Points

The 2020 Pommard 1er Cru Les Grands Epenots is lovely mingling aromas of wild berries and plums with hints of raw cocoa and loamy soil in an inviting bouquet. Medium to full-bodied seamless and velvety it's deep and concentrated underpinned by powdery tannins and lively acids. The 2020 vintage is another terrific success for Anne Morey who confidently directs this 11-hectare domaine as well as her family's Maison Morey-Blanc (also reviewed in this report). In white yields were generous delivering classically balanced wines that get my nod as the estate's finest since 2017. In red lower yields and rapid ripening had delivered more atypical results with some cuvées hitting 15% alcohol yet that was remarkably well-concealed?at least when tasting from barrel in the cellars.

Burghound: 92 Points

Ripe but markedly fresher aromas of poached plum black cherry coulis warm earth and pretty floral nuances lead to intense vibrant and very concentrated larger-scaled flavors that deliver excellent length on the ever-so-slightly warm finish. This is riper than it usually is but retains very good energy and is a wine that should develop well if given time. (Drink starting 2032)
