Restrained, with excellent concentration. There is a really significant amount of wine behind this, excellent integration of the acidity, a little grapefruit livened up the broader based orchard fruit. A wonderful wealth of flavour. Drink from 2026-2034.--Japer Morris. Inside Burgundy

The 2020 Chablis Les Preuses Grand Cru has a concentrated bouquet, well-defined with citrus peel, crushed stone and light apple blossom aromas. This exudes Grand Cru status. The palate is well-balanced with seamlessly integrated oak, plenty of grip and extract, and lightly spiced with a powerful yet focused finish. It has all the potential here to become a great Chablis Grand Cru. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (July 2024) -- Neal Martin, Vinous Media

Tasting note: Here the wood treatment is slightly more evident though it still remains a background element on the nose of essence of pear, iodine and pretty citrus wisps. There is first-rate density to the powerful yet refined, even sophisticated, middleweight plus flavors that brim with both dry extract and minerality on the compact, bone-dry and sneaky long finish. This is also built-to-age and a wine that should reward a decade plus.—Allen Meadows, Burghound
