2023 Hudelot-Noellat Bourgogne

Hudelot-Noëllat is no longer one of Burgundy’s hidden gems as word is well and truly out now on just how exceptional these wines are. Charles Van Canneyt runs this iconic family owned domaine based in Vougeot where he crafts elegant and classic wines from some of the region’s most prized vineyards. Staying true to tradition, Charles practices minimal intervention in the cellar along with limited new oak usage. His aim is to produce refined Burgundy with an emphasis on purity and finesse, all while letting the terroir shine.

Other Reviews....
Ripe, fresh and airy aromas include those of both red and dark fruit trimmed in soft earth. The succulent and relatively concentrated middle weight flavors conclude in a robust and slightly warm finale. I would observe that this is a departure in style for the Hudelot Bourgogne, which is typically light and refreshing whereas here it is more rustic and without the same refinement. Drink through 2026+.

Aromas of sweet berries and cherries introduce the 2023 Bourgogne Rouge, a medium-bodied, pure and supple wine that's bright and succulent. As ever, this is a clean, well-made, dependable Bourgogne that will drink well on release. Drink 2025-2033.

William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2023 Bourgogne Rouge comes from 11 parcels in Chambolle-Musigny. This has a fragrant bouquet with blackberry and raspberry fruit tones, fine delineation and poise. The palate is medium-bodied, a little diffuse on the entry, with light tannins and a brisk, breezy finish. Fine. Drink 2025-2030.

Just racked and sulphured, fine rich purple with a generous red berry fruit on the nose, lots of fresh acidity here as well, a crunchy red fruit, nonetheless quality pinot fruit with some length. Drink from 2026-2028.
