Burghound: 89-92 Points

A ripe and reasonably fresh nose offers up notes of red and dark berries along with plenty of earth and humus nuances. There is slightly better vibrancy to the well detailed and attractively textured middle weight flavors that are not especially dense but there is better overall balance on the slightly firmer finish. (Drink starting 2027)

Wine Advocate: 90-92 Points

Firmer than Anne Morey's wines from Volnay and Pommard the 2019 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Clos du Chapitre is nevertheless unusually elegant this year delivering scents of cherries plums spices and loamy soil followed by a medium to full-bodied lively and mineral profile.

Vinous: 90-92 Points

The 2019 Aloxe-Corton Clos du Chapitre 1er Cru is compact on the nose backward and broody at first opening to reveal blackberry bilberry and quite potent floral (iris and peony) aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy ripe tannins. A more generous cuvée among the Morey range delivering a caressing quite plush but structured finish that leaves a tingle of spice on the tongue. This is a fine Aloxe-Corton packed full of flavor. (Drink between 2023-2033)
