Decanter: 94 Points

Pézerolles is up-slope from Petits Epenots. The topsoil here is relatively deep and somewhat sandy but a firm limestone underpins the terroir. The combination gives a texture that is velvety and supple. The bright plum and blackberry aromas with a hint of tea bergamot and spice are lovely and the finish is balanced and elegant. The grapes are from two parcels that total 0.89 hectares; half were fermented as whole clusters and the wine is ageing now in cask (30% new). It will be ready to drink before the Rugiens-Bas but this too will last. (Drink between 2027 - 2055) By Charles Curtis MW

Burghound: 91-94 Points

Enough wood to notice is present on the attractively spicy nose featuring notes of red cherry raspberry plum violet and a suggestion of soft earth. The succulent but super-sleek and well-detailed medium weight flavors exude a bracing minerality on the impressively long and youthfully austere finish. This is lovely and understated indeed it's very Pézerolles in character. (Drink starting 2030) By Allen Meadows Api 2024 Issue #94 4/10/2024

Vinous: 90-92 Points

The 2022 Pommard Les Pezerolles 1er Cru with one-third whole clusters doesn't quite deliver the finesse of the Les Cras. The nose has touches of cracked black pepper and allspice more tertiary in style. The palate is well-balanced with good depth and more black fruit slightly granular in texture but missing the complexity of the preceding Les Cras.

Jasper Morris: 90-92 Points

One third whole cluster. Dense purple with quite a sturdy nose. Continues on the palate this is a bit rigid the tannins are firm but not rustic and the fruit comes up to the wall of the structure. By Jasper Morris 10/1/2023
