Score 93/100 · Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Oct 2017

Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting, the 2014 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru les Baudines from Benjamin Leroux was showing some noticeable reduction on the nose, and although I initially did not quite get both hands on the terroir as I expected to when I originally tasted the wine from barrel, it soon gained clarity and a seam of mineralité. The palate is fresh and crisp, quite tensile with a pleasant bitterness toward the finish that gently fans out. This is a superb Les Baudines whose energy should see it age for many years. Tasted September 2017.
