William Kelley:

"Wafting from the glass with aromas of pear, crisp green apple, citrus oil, buttery pastry and subtle hints of nutmeg tarragon, the 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Corvée des Vignes is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and charming, with an ample core of fruit, bright acids and a saline finish. I

What remains to be said about Vincent Dureuil? The word "talent" is over-used in wine writing. Certainly Dureuil is talented, but he is also, on the one hand, immensely hardworking, and on the other, an experienced taster who drinks great wine on a regular basis. This is why his wines are so good; and, while reviews in this publication may have expedited the inevitable, it was only a matter of time until Domaine Dureuil-Janthial became one of Burgundy's highly allocated producers. The 2020s at this address have turned out predictably brilliant, combining much of the cut and tension of 2017 with some of the charm and grace Dureuil realized in 2018 (few did better in that vintage, incidentally). As ever, they are worth a special effort to seek out."

Soil
'Corvee des Vignes,’ a downslope vineyard facing east, on the border with Meursault. Soils are deeper, with more clay than limestone.
Winemaking
Hand-harvested. Pressed full cluster; lees settling for 48 hours. Fermented on indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels (20% new). Aged for 12 months in barrel, then six months in tank. Bottled unfined and unfiltered; all work follows the lunar cycle.
