92-94 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2023 Maranges Clos de la Boutière 1er Cru comes from the estate's oldest vines, over 90 years old. It has a tightly wound yet finely delineated bouquet with blackberry, wild mint and a touch of potpourri. The medium-bodied palate features pliant tannins that lend a silky texture through to the fleshy finish. Lightly spiced with impressive length, this is another extremely well-crafted Maranges from Bachelet-Monnot. (Drink between 2027-2042)" 01/25
90-92 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy: "4 ha of vines equates to six vats, with mixed percentages of whole bunch depending on which plot, averaging out at 30%, all blended together when the wine is assembled for bottling. Fussière is a more mineral spot for Marc. Bright purple colour, a rich deep raspberry fruit on the nose, mouthfilling, retains freshness all the way through, all red fruit, good acidity with a tingling finish amid refined tannins. More persistent even than Clos Roussots." 11/24
