Wine Enthusiast: 97 Points
This is a sumptuous wine as befits a Chardonnay from one of the great white Grand Crus. Intense acidity is spiced by the new-wood aging. A strongly mineral character also marks this powerful wine with generous white and yellow fruits and a zesty, tangy aftertaste. It has a great future.
Wine Spectator: 96 Points
Creamy and inviting, wrapping the texture around lemon curd, apple crisp and sweet baking spice flavors. Tightly woven, with a vibrant structure pulling all the elements together on the long finish. Expansive on the savory aftertaste. Best from 2021 through 2035. 200 cases made, 30 cases imported.
Vinous: 93 Points
Pale, bright yellow. Pure but very restrained aromas of pineapple and lemon oil. Very ripe but light on its feet, conveying excellent lift and definition to its flavors of white peach, lemon and dusty stone. Offers outstanding purity and cut without any weight, not to mention alcoholic harshness. This utterly seamless, silky wine was shy and tight from the beginning and is still a baby. But despite its early austerity, it nicely showcases its balance and energy already.
