Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2011-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, Mar 2011

Attractive, ‘cool’, authentic nose. Very gouleyant. With just a touch of a rough terroir-derived edge. Tant mieux. Bone dry. Solidly useful as a solid, untarted-up white burgundy from a major retailer. Seems to have potential for development and a long finish too. (JR)

Score 88-90/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2009

Pale green-tinged yellow. Slightly reduced aromas of flowers and minerals. The brightest and suavest yet of these 2008s, with an enticing sugar/acid balance and attractive floral lift to the ripe lemony flavor. Finishes with very good length and grip. These vines are always picked at the beginning, notes Fontaine.
