RATINGS

92+ Stephen Tanzer

Reticent but lively nose offers mandarin orange and peach accented by pepper. Rich and chewy in the mouth, with a tactile oily peach flavor firmed by a peppery quality.

91-93Burghound.com

Textured and admirably concentrated mouth feel to the well-detailed middle weight flavors that exude plenty of dry extract on the lemony, dry and relatively austere finish... impeccably well-balanced and delivers strikingly good length.

90The Wine Advocate

Fine delineation and minerality on the nose: great precision and good intensity here. The palate is poised and focused with hints of peach and apricot. It is threaded through with a fine line of acidity...a commendable wine

PRODUCER

Arnaud Ente

Domaine Arnaud Ente is a 12-acre domain founded by Arnaud Ente in 1992. Based in Meursault, Burgundy, the domaine has parcels in the Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Bourgogne appellations. The estate makes only about 1,250 cases of wine annually but is widely admired for its premier cru Chardonnays. Clive Coates has described winemaker Arnaud Ente as “one of the best growers to come to the fore in the last decade.” Robert M. Parker Jr. has called the domaine’s wines “extraordinary” and notes that although Ente has only been producing wines under his own name since 1994, the domaine “is well on its way to becoming a household name.”
