Lise and Luc Pavelot

For the rest of these alphabetically grouped tasting articles, and more general articles on Burgundy 2021, see our guide. Above, Jon Wyand's portrait of Lise and Luc Pavelot.

The 108 tasting notes are grouped alphabetically by producer (sur)name and within those groups are ordered whites before reds, ascending from generic through village, premiers and grands crus. You can change the order within groups as you prefer using the menu below.

Domaine Agnès Paquet (Auxey-Duresses)

White

Decent breadth of fruit – well done! A perfectly nice wine for the short term. (JR)

Drink: 2023 – 2027
Imported into the UK by Flint Wines
White

Light citrus and herbal nose. Dry and really salty. Lightish, super-fresh and surprisingly long. (JH)

Drink: 2023 – 2026
Price: £218 per case of 12 ib Haynes Hanson & Clark
White

Admirable fruit and zest – good composition and very refreshing without being mean. (JR)

Drink: 2023 – 2029
Price: £141 per case of 6 ib Stannary Wine
White

A little more intense than the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, but similarly salty. Mouth-watering tension and a very nice slight grip to the texture. Intense salty-citrus finish that is impressive in this vintage. (JH)

Drink: 2024 – 2028
Price: £145 per case of 6 ib Haynes Hanson & Clark
Red

Very pale garnet. Light and fragrant – true to appellation but some may find this precise wine a little too light. Pretty. A red wine to drink with fish? (JR)

Drink: 2025 – 2033
Price: £141 per case of 6 ib Stannary Wine
Red

Light cherry red. Smells fragrant and juicy with wild strawberries and a touch floral. Tight, bright and refreshing. Again, not for those who prefer ripe roundness but it’s scented and mouth-watering with refined tannins. (JH)

Drink: 2024 – 2027
Price: £218 per case of 12 ib Haynes Hanson & Clark
Red

Lightish cherry red. So fragrant. Delicate and pretty in its red fruits. More intense than the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune and with greater persistence. Tannins are firm but balanced with the fruit. (JH)

Drink: 2025 – 2029
Price: £265 per case of 12 ib Haynes Hanson & Clark
