91-93 pts Jasper Morris
Attractive lemon yellow tints to the colour. The bouquet is refined, yet discreet, perhaps a fennel note with the fresh fruit. This is very satisfying in the mouth, the perfect balance of ripe grapes with lively acidity, a very pleasing flesh and excellent aftertaste. Picked a week after Sous Roche Dumay. Drink from 2027-2031. Tasted Nov 2024.
91-93 Burghound*
Pretty and airy aromas include those of petrol, lemon rind, apple and pear. There is markedly better concentration to the vibrant and solidly powerful flavors that exude an evident bead of minerality on the chiseled and youthfully austere finale. This is an exercise in contrast as the mid-palate is fleshy and generously proportioned yet the finish is compact and linear. Excellent quality and this should amply repay mid-term keeping. *Burghound Outstanding!* Review Date: 06/2025
