Wine by Bok - 9/10

Jean Marie Guffens, the visionary behind Guffens Heynen, continues to assert his genius with this remarkable Macon Pierreclos. 

His ability to craft wines that balance precision with depth is unparalleled, and his unique approach to winemaking shines through in this rather stunning vintage. On the nose, this wine offers a smoky bouquet, a signature of oak integration, complemented by ripe fruits and summer flowers. The warmth of the vintage is evident, contributing to a bouquet that feels sunkissed, almost heat driven.

The palate is dominated by the distinctive flavor of jackfruit, offering a tropical, exotic edge that is difficult to compare to other fruits. While there is a touch of acidity in the background, it plays a minor role, allowing the rich, ripe fruit character to take center stage. 


Though there is a slight coarseness to the fruit, which detracts from its finesse, the wine remains a thoroughly enjoyable and satisfying drink overall.


Thomas Parker MW - 97 points

A personal favourite, the Juliette et les Vieilles comprises old vines from Pierreclos and plantings that were young in 2003 and stunted by the heat of the summer - they now produce concentrated berries that are equally high in acidity. Pale lemon in the glass, the nose is tight and lightly flinty on pouring, but quickly starts to show its class as it warms up in the glass. Focused ripe citrus, riper orchard fruits and savoury kernels of fresh nut all come through. The palte is tensile on entry, with high purity and density of fruit. Remarkable acidity matches great concentration, all tightly wound with hints of gun smoke and savoury, creamy tones. The palate builds with time in the glass and is at its most intense at the finish, expanding and building on so much promise. This needs a few years in bottle but there is remarkable potential here.e. (3/2023)


Wine Advocate - 96 points

The 2022 Mâcon-Pierreclos Juliette et les Vieilles de Chavigne is a worthy new entry in the series 2016, 2018 and 2022, though where exactly it will sit among those titans will be easier to assess in bottle than it is in barrel. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of white flowers, citrus zest, Asian pear, peach, nutmeg and bread dough, it's full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with huge levels of concentration, racy acids and a long, saline finish.
