Critic Notes
The estate’s 2009 Chevalier-Montrachet possesses breathtaking textural elegance and silkiness. It is a seamless, elegant wine of the highest level. In fact, nothing seems to stand out, as the wine captivates all of the senses in equally stunning fashion. White flowers and light floral honey wrap around the sublime, eternal finish. This is a true stand out. Dazzling. Anticipated maturity: 2014+. Aug 2011, www.robertparker.com
Score: 96-/100 Antonio Galloni

Daniel-Étienne Defaix: Chablis Built to Age
“Two generations ago everyone made Chablis like this. Now I am the only one left,” says Daniel-Etienne Defaix proudly. It is amazing to think that production methods could completely reverse in such a short time, no doubt fuelled by the “Chardonnay boom” of the mid-70s onwards. This insatiable global demand for crisp, clean, saline-tinged Chardonnay has shown no sign of abating ever since. The ...

Domaine Henri Boillot - Producer Portrait
As Stephen Tanzer outlines in his recent report, Henri Boillot is the first out picking on the Montrachet slopes. The combination of small production and picking early comes from a desire to retain vibrancy and energy in the wines over and above riper styles of Chardonnay found elsewhere in the Cotes de Beaune. This mineral driven “understated” yet “explosive” style ...
