Critic's Notes

John Gilman - View From the Cellar, 96

“96 rating … a beautiful young wine in the making, offering up a very refined bouquet of pear, sweet quince, honeycomb, a hint of guava, chalky soil tones, white lilies and orange zest. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and very elegant in profile, with a superb core, lovely soil undertow, zesty acids and a very, very long, impeccably balanced and beautifully complex finish. This is stunning.”

Decanter, 93

"...elegant and fresh, even delicate, and finishes with notes of delectable yellow fruit."

"Pear, apple and ginger notes. Sweetness on attack but acidity to match. Fruit, purity and balance..." 

Vinous Media, 96

"...pretty gorgeous with its sweet embrace (71g/L residual sugar) caressing the palate like a silky-smooth velouté. It sits calmly in the mouth, showing the typical fruit-forward character of the site, all oranges, chamomile and violets. The deeply satisfying finish provides the merest of grips, and fresh acid makes your mouth water. Already delicious in its youth, this wine has the concentration, acidity and sweetness to age gracefully, as Huet fans will know well."
