Score 89-91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Aug 2015

(from 45-year-old vines): Bright, pale yellow. Lovely lift to the aromas of lime zest, white peach and minerals. A step up in concentration of flavor from the Vaillons but also boasts lovely delicacy to its intense flavors of stone fruits, flowers and chalk. Fine-grained, smooth wine with solid spine; this will need a few years of cellaring upon release. More Kimmeridgian in its minerality than the Vaillons.

Chalky, lemon-limey Kimmeridgian nose comes across as higher-pitched than the Vaillons. On the palate, the wine's piquant stone fruit flavors are lifted by flowers and minerals. Really mounts and resounds on the finish. This firm, bracing wine finishes with a light phenolic spine.
