Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

97 WE / 95 JM / 94 VM

Bright, tender lemon and fragrant summer blossom give a sense of delicacy to this wine's chalky nose. The chalky, concentrated and textured palate is also pervaded by lemon zestiness that makes the mouth water. Yet the wine also has generosity and lovely balance. Richness and freshness are anchored in the stony depth of the wine, making it a joy to drink. Over the years the chalkiness will become even more pronounced. Drink by 2040. Anne Krebiehl MW, Wine Enthusiast

A pale mid lemon colour, while the bouquet starts gently it soon develops significantly more fruit. Broad-shouldered and exceptionally young, with a core salinity alongside the white and yellow fruit. This is growing on me as the detail starts to emerge more. “Closer to the stones” commented one taster. DIAM 10 closure. Tasted: May 2022, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy

The 2018 Chablis Vaudésirs Grand Cru is shrouded by so much SO2 at the beginning that I thought it was faulty. However, it opens with aeration to reveal fresh lime, Granny Smith apples and light flinty scents. The palate is balanced but disjointed at the moment, yet it slowly coalesces and remains gawky. It is a "mean" Chablis that you might misconstrue as coming from a cooler vintage, but I think it will pull through in the end. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 white tasting. -- Neal Martin, Vinous Media
