Critics Ratings
‘Fine, strongly mineral and a little reductive, attractively so. Taut, fresh and at the moment quite austere but not lean.’ - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5/20
‘Slightly reduced aromas of soft citrus fruits and toasted bread. Ripe, round and nicely balanced; classically dry but not austere, with a flavor of orange dominating the palate. Not yet complex but offers lovely texture. Roulot bottled his 2007s between January and March of 2009, after storing them in cuves for five or six months. Incidentally his Bourgogne blanc, bottled in March, offers lovely floral lift and bright acid cut, and reminded me of a baby Meursault.’ - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous (Sep 2009)
