RATINGS

93-96Stephen Tanzer

Deeply pitched aromas of peach, clove and nut oil. Compellingly ripe and rich, with superb flavor intensity and the vintage's exhilarating combination of sweetness and vibrancy. Has brisk acidity, chewiness and precision...

92Burghound.com

Outstanding...superb purity and cut. The flavors are almost chewy and there is a stiff acid spine that will require a few years in bottle to really integrate. I found this to be a classic Puligny...A great effort of substantial potential.

91-94The Wine Advocate

"..filled with quartz, lemon and crisp pears, this is a tangy, silky anc concentrated effort..."
