Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 91-94/100
Softly exotic aromas offer notes of passion fruit, white peach, pear compote, apricot and a whisper of sulfur though it's much more subtle here. The gorgeously textured and nicely refined medium-bodied flavours possess an abundance of sappy dry extract that helps to buffer the firm acid spine shaping the impressively long and complex finale. This is a Criots of finesse and punch.Drink from 2030 onwardallen_meadows, burghound_com.com (June 2020)

Just 13ares on a rental agreement. Clear and pure light yellow. This has a gentle sense of ripe fruit class to it, not insistent but fine. Fruit wins over sulphur at this stage. Really quite impressive intensity here, with an excellent long and balanced aftertaste. A little bit of cream in the mix, all white fruit, promising.Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com (November 2019)

Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
