Vinous: 92 Points
Bright medium yellow. Ripe aromas of apricot, pineapple and toasted bread. Concentrated, sappy wine with better fruit retention and more definition and breadth--not to mention a silkier texture-than the Charmes- Dessus. Surprising mineral lift gives definition to the wine's stone fruit flavors. Finishes firm and long, with a repeating hint of ripe pineapple, soft citrus notes and a slightly tannic impression. Very nicely balanced from the start, with a lovely stony underpinning providing energy and grip.
Burghound: 90-93 Points
A cooler and more restrained array is comprised by aromas of matchstick, mineral reduction and plenty of citrus and floral characters. The mouth feel of the middle weight flavors is almost as refined and even more mineral-driven before terminating in a firmer yet better balanced and focused finale that is distinctly saline.
