DECANTER: "This charming wine features a bright, forward strawberry and pomegranate fruit character perfumed with hints of fresh flowers and spice. The wine does not lack structure or depth, but it is more ethereal than the Evocelles. The grapes are a blend from approximately three hectares in total; two-thirds of the grapes are fermented as whole clusters before ageing in cask (40% new). This wine should drink well upon release and is suitable for mid-term ageing."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Tasted from a bottle that saw fully 24 months' élevage (which will be indicated on the label), the 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Coeur du Roy is much more civilized than it was from barrel, offering up a pretty bouquet of red berries, plums and orange rind mingled with rose petals and incense. Medium to full-bodied, succulent and seamless, with integrated tannins and a lively, harmonious profile, it will offer a broader drinking window than I had originally anticipated."
