  We tasted five Les Fuees in two days. The concentrated but at the same time delicate and superbly delineated Mugnier 2017 (95pts) showcased the quality, finesse and elegance this domaine is able to produce, as well as 2017s appeal as an early drinking vintage. On its heels, Ghislaine Barthod’s 2022 (95pts) which showed incredibly purity and that typical to die for red fruit core, complemented by many other layers. Already superb, despite its youth. We tasted her 2010 too (94pts) which showed an even broader aromatic spectrum with pure, fresh fruit in all shapes and colors at the core and lots of minerality but at the same time still had noticeable tannins which have to mellow further. The Amiot Servelle 2020 (92pts) showed that it’s not a good time to open the 2020s yet, while it showed promising complexity, it was too powerful and structured to truly shine. The Felettig 2020 (86pts) was very dark and concentrated, definitely more Northern Rhone than a Chambolle, but maybe this might come around in 20 years.

  Decanted for c.a. 30min – but potentially several hours more required. No doubt intense with concentrated, extracted jammy fruit of raspberry, but not much else going on. The palate equally intense with rough acidity and astringent tannin. Feel wild and overpowering. Almost more akin to a New World, hot region Pinot and would be surprised if anybody guessed this Burgundy.

  Viel Power, dunkle Frucht. Wäre schwer ihn als Pinot in einem blind tasting zu erkennen.
