Jancis Robinson: Quite like Chenevottes, just a bit higher and a bit more clayey. 50 m higher. Ripens about a week later than Chenevottes. Broad and pretty and sweet and a bit more reserved th...

Burghound: This is not quite as elegant as the wood is a bit more obvious but offers more aromatic breadth with floral and spice notes added to the tidal pool and white orchard fruit aro...

Wine Spectator: This is suave, showing intense flavors of peach, lemon and mineral, with the oak providing a lush, pastrylike accent that fits the creamy texture. It's all underlined by brigh...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2010 Meursault Les Chevalieres comes across as quite polished and refined in this vintage. Lemon, apricots and white flowers meld together in this feminine, gracious wine....

Burghound: Relatively strong sulfur notes definitely detract from the otherwise complex nose of pain grillé, ripe green apple and wet stone aromas. There is however good volume and mid-p...

Wine Spectator: An elegant style, linear and defined, offering apple, grapefruit, butterscotch and mineral flavors intertwined with a vibrant structure. Stretches out on the long finish, with...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Sexy, almost surprisingly accessible aromas of peach, white flowers, honey, smoke and truffle. Pliant and silky, with good volume but much more grip than the Puligny villages ...

James Suckling: A beautiful white, with lemon curd and apple tar character. Medium to-full body, with bright acidity and a clean finish. Limey sherbet. Hints of apple cream on the finish. Sc...

Wine Enthusiast: This is a very mineral driven wine-the ripe fruit is cut with acidity, green fruits and herbs. Textured and ripe, its freshness is a counterpoint to the full fruit flavors.

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Subdued aromas of green melon and minerals complicated by a leesy suggestion of hazelnut. Fat, tactile and rich, but with firm acidity and underlying minerality leavening the...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Vivid yellow. Candied citrus fruits and white flowers on the bright, mineral-accented nose and palate. Juicy, sharply focused orange and lemon curd flavors give way to deeper...

About this Wine: The Melvilles are a serious viticultural family with an impeccable vineyard and top-notch wines, looked over with some consulting help from the dynamic duo of Greg Brewer an...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Green-tinged straw. Aromas of pear skin, melon and musky lees, with a hint of iodine in the background. Spicy, penetrating orchard and citrus fruit flavors are complemented ...

Wine Spectator: Apricot and nectarine notes add interest to this grapefruit- and apple-tinged white that turns compact on the finish, with a hint of tannins. Intense, but needs time to unwind...

Wine Spectator: Combines richness with density and a tight core of pear, melon, green apple and light cedary oak flavors. This is raw and young, so give it time. The finish is complex, layere...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good medium yellow. Ripe peach, quince, clove, marzipan and medicinal herbs on the nose. Densely packed but a bit youthfully disjointed today, with powerful, very ripe pinea...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Pale yellow. Complex, fragrant bouquet of pear skin, melon and ginger, along with a bright mineral overtone. Succulent orchard fruit and honeydew flavors are brightened by z...

Devon Magee: Pale lemon in the glass with notes of vanilla, almond skin and nutmeg spice notes. Lemon pith on the palate with a faint caramelized note that adds a bright sweetness to the f...

Wine Enthusiast: The winemaker pulled out all the bells and whistles, barrel fermenting this Chardonnay, putting it through partial malolactic fermentation, and aging it on the lees. The resul...
