“Three barrels made. No great depth of colour, a light crimson purple, with such a striking elegance to the nose. Clean and crisp, light to medium bodied, but all the finesse of this fine terroir with a crisp mineral finish. The weight of the wine feels like three stars but the sheer class has tipped me just into a fourth.” 92-94 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
