Critics Ratings

'Restrained aroma but there is a depth of stony lemon fruit waiting to emerge. Dense and dry and beautifully balanced between depth of fruit and zesty refreshing intensity. Very long and almost gentle - for Chablis - on the finish.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Dec 2013)

'While not in the official canon of Grand Crus, La Moutonne is definitely in grand cru territory, a parcel that is divided between Les Preuses and Vaudésir. The 2012 is very structured, dense and textured, with a strongly tannic character packed with minerality. Time will bring out its fruit and richness. Drink from 2019.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 95/100 (Oct 2015)
