“
The 2020 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots is lovely, wafting from the glass with aromas of dark berries, cassis, warms spices and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy, with powdery tannins, lively acids and a perfumed core of fruit, it’s one of the more sensual, giving wines in the range.” 92-94pts The Wine Advocate
“As I wrote last year, the unassuming but ambitious Pascal Mugneret is making terrific wines at Domaine Gérard Mugneret. Widely respected for his work in the vineyards, Mugneret stopped using all synthetic treatments a decade ago and employs some biodynamic preparations and works according to the lunar calendar. His approach to working the soils is thoughtful, recognizing the need to control competition but also appreciating that excessive cultivation kills soil microflora. Canopies are trimmed by hand, and dead vines uprooted manually to avoid the soil compaction caused by performing this laborious task by tractor. In the winery, he began using whole clusters in the 2012 vintage and didn’t destem at all in 2020, as in 2019. Sulfur is used sparingly, with none added during cuvaison, and élevage is in barrels from coopers including Rousseau and François Frères. All this is rejuvenating a domaine with a long history, the first commercial bottlings dating back to the 1930s when the label was Mugneret-Pasquier. And given the quality of the wines that result—described in the accompanying tasting notes—it’s surprising that they’re not better known. In today’s Burgundy market, such anomalies don’t last long, so readers who aren’t following this address are encouraged to acquaint themselves with it in short order.” William Kelley, the Wine Advocate
