Vinous

The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras 1er Cru has another precise bouquet with shimmering red fruit, the 75% whole bunches deftly assimilated and imparting a light spiciness. The palate is medium-bodied with a graphite-tinged entry. It's quite strict at the beginning, but there's real intensity. It translates the limestone soils to beautiful effect on the finish that fans out gloriously. Fabulous. 11/2023

Inside Burgundy

A bright dark purple with fresher rim. A startlingly pure fresh bouquet of deep raspberry fruit. Sensational vibrant fruit throughout with excellent fruit acid balance. A long fine and concentrated finish. 75% whole bunch vinification does not show. Great wine! Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted Nov 2023.

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate

The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Cras is one of the more overtly sun-kissed wines in the range, offering up aromas of cherry pie, red berry compote, violets and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a rich core of ripe fruit, powdery tannins and a long, saline finish, it's a site that purists may prefer in cooler years. 01/2024
