Jasper Morris: 91-94 Points

5-Star Rating - The steep slope and altitude have successfully kept this very fresh in 2023. Arnaud is getting very excited! There is certainly a huge amount on the nose. The 2023 Vau de Vey still has the typical grass of this vineyard but now with a fine stony thread too. A little lemongrass behind. This is a beautiful example of a 1er Cru which is coming into its own. Impeccable balance and length. Drink from 2027-2034. Tasted Jul 2024.

Decanter: 94 Points

Brothers Arnaud and David have been making exciting, intriguing wines at the family domaine. Their Vau de Vey comes from 0.95ha of vines with an average age of 35 years. Plenty of power and complexity on nose and palate. A touch of oak evident but just needs a bit of time. Rich and luscious palate cut with vibrant citrus acidity and a long, pure finish. A very fine example.
