Critics Ratings

'There is excellent power, weight and muscle to the big, powerful and concentrated flavors that possess almost painful intensity and despite the sheer scale of this wine, there is no lack of elegance or vibrancy. This is perhaps not as complex as it usually is though the underlying material is such that embedded in my predicted range is the expectation that more depth will develop with bottle age.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 91-94/100 (Jun 2014)

'The 2012 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru is utterly regal and beautifully defined. It has a touch of sea spray and orange blossom that becomes more accentuated with aeration. The palate is taut and racy on the entry, then mellows and becomes a classy affair. Nothing outrageous or decadent, but finely focused with a long mineral-rich finish.' - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 93-95/100 (Dec 2013)
