Reviews & Scores
This is certainly complex and ageworthy. With its light almond flavour it seems slightly more like a particularly successful Corton-Charlemagne than Bâtard-Montrachet to me. Very sophisticated wine that seems rich initially but then finishes sleek and lively with layers of honey and lime. Very neat and rewarding now but it clearly signals that it will go through many different stages. Well done! Serious wine for the table.17+/20, Jancis Robinson MW, jancisrobinson.com
