91pts Wine & Spirits– 2016 vintage

“lt’s rare to find parcels of white grapes in the Côte de Nuits; it’s unique to find aligoté vines in a Côte de Nuits premier cru. These vines date to 1911 and give a wine with the earthy intensity you might hope to find in such a rarity, scents of chamomile and meadow flowers lifting its waxy texture and savory bone-broth flavors. In all the notes I took on this wine, including transcriptions from our panelists, there is not a single mention of fruit, yet the supple, earthy depths of flavor completely held our attention. “

93pts Decanter– 2016 vintage

“The world’s only premier cru Aligoté, from vines nearly 110 years old, with 24 months in old oak. This is pure and vivacious, lemon and chalk, but ineffably elegant, its acidity in check. Still very young.”
