Jasper Morris: 96-98 Points
The darkest colour in the cellar. This has a reduced nose which makes the fruit seem blacker than it really is. We can soon get past that. The Richemone delivers a beautiful intensity on the palate more red fruit than black now until once again at the very end the darker fruit returns. The Richemone wears its stems lightly and with a magical intensity. The wood currently is exerting a certain grip with torrefaction at the back. But potentially brilliant. By Jasper Morris
Vinous: 94-96 Points
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges La Richemone 1er Cru a parcel adjacent to the one now owned by Domaine des Lambrays has a gorgeous floral bouquet with tons of black fruit that blossoms in the glass easily the most flattering at this early stage. The medium-bodied palate has fine-grain tannins. It?s fresh quite saline and elegant towards the finish. Like many of Mugneret's cuvées it will flesh out and gain depth during the second winter and it will surely be one of the standouts from Nuits Saint-Georges. (Drink between 2027 - 2049)
Wine Advocate: 93-94 Points
The 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru La Richemone was a little inscrutable when I tasted it with its new oak taking center stage but the wine's underlying substance and its track record during élevage are such that I'm very confident for its future. It's a full-bodied layered textural wine redolent of plums cassis blackberries and burning embers. by William Kelley
Burghound: 91-93 Points
Relatively firm reduction blocks everything but a floral wisp. Much more interesting are the dense serious and powerful larger-bodied flavors that possess a gorgeous texture thanks to the abundant dry extract that coats the palate and buffers the firm tannic spine shaping the dusty youthfully austere and hugely long finale. This is also really impressive and a wine that should amply repay a decade plus of keeping. (Drink starting 2034) .By Allen Meadows
