Score 93/100 · Drink 2023-2035, Rebecca Gibb MW, Vinous, Sep 2022
Tangy and precise, the 2016 Brézé is a dry white wine that provides plenty of concentration and long length. It is round, yet has a firm line of tension that pierces its core. There's a lightly oxidative character here: cooked apples meets pastry, caramel and a hint of spice, evoking memories of a tarte tatin.
