Critics Ratings

‘Aromas of citrus blossom and chalk dust lead into lemon, vanilla, peach and mineral in this elegant, yet powerful white. Really expressive of place, this evolves across the palate, cascading into a long aftertaste of citrus and mineral. There's a fine seashore intensity. Best from 2013 through 2030.’ - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 95/100 (Jun 2010)

‘More perfumed than his Premiers Crus. Dense and deep and satisfying. Lots to chew on. Quite a cerebral wine and certainly very clean.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Jan 2010)
