The 2019 Le Grand Clos is a quiet and graceful wine. It's as if a symphony orchestra has been playing pianissimo and then they've come to a collective pause, holding its bows and breath before releasing the tension and...

There are people in life who you hang out with and feel energised and then there are others who suck your spirit - like the Death Eaters à la Harry Potter. The 2019 Touche Mitaine is thankfully the former. It is a...

(92-93 points) This is a pretty white with sliced-pear and pineapple character. Bright and lively acidity backs up the ripe fruit.

Louis Moreau farms 52 acres in the villages of Beines and Chablis, most of his parcels on sandy clay. He ferments this wine in stainless steel without added yeasts, then ages it on the fine lees. In 2018, he achieved a...

The 2020 Le Petit Cheval (Blanc) is fabulous. Rich, creamy and wonderfully expansive, the 2020 is just gorgeous. Lemon confit, white flowers, passion fruit and a touch of oak all grace this wonderfully expressive dry...

(92-94 points) Tasted from tank just prior to bottling, the 2017 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru shows why this vintage is so compelling. Apricot, peach and tropical fruit give the 2017 a decidedly exotic flair, and yet bright...

(92+ points) The 2019 Saint-Romain Sous le Château is also excellent, offering up aromas of citrus oil and crisp Anjou pear mingled with hints of fresh hazelnut and almond. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and...

(90-93 points) A timid nose grudgingly offers up its aromas of citrus rind, oyster shell, petrol and tidal pool. There is very good freshness and energy to the solidly concentrated middle weight flavors that possess...

There's a slight spritz to this at first, which blows off to reveal a relatively big version, superexpressive and balanced, showing exotic notes of shaved ginger and coriander, followed by a mix of candied pear, baked...

(91-94 points) There is an interesting, if very subtle, minty character to the ripe, expressive and attractively layered nose of both white and yellow peach, nectarine and iodine along with a plethora of floral elements...

Fevre's Montée de Tonnerre comes from all three sectors. Seguier notes that Pied d'Aloup has the highest marn content, Montée de Tonnerre adds weight and the old Chapelot vines (planted in 1936) add finesse. More closed...

(91-94 points) Pale primrose here, very vibrant in colour and bouquet. Complex nose with some tension, a very faint toast in a way which works, and a sense of energy to the fruit – indeed more in fruit than flowers...

Also all Marsanne from the eastern side of Hermitage, raised in 15% new demi-muids, the 2020 Ermitage De L’Orée is full-bodied and concentrated, yet stays tight and reserved on the palate. Giving up beautiful white...

(90-92 points) The 2021 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru comes from 3.80-hectares within the three climats, one-third each, and is generally a late-ripening cuvée. The aromatics were very primal on the nose with touches of...

(90-92 points) The mildly exotic aromas of yellow orchard fruit, petrol and quinine give way to dense and sappy flavors that also possess fine volume on the powerful, saline and bone-dry finale. This is coming along very...

Fevre's Vaulorent is just a little more precise on the nose. Seguier says it is always elegant, always fresh. Fevre's take on this renowned premier cru has an understated nose yet you can feel the power within. Lovely...

Smells like wild peaches, really floral and perfumed, parma violets, you might say there's Viognier in it from the nose. The palate is weighty, you get a more dense texture than some of the others, it really makes an...

This wine shines with bright green-plum and herbal flavors. Fruitiness is balanced by a texture that hints at ripeness and richness. Lightly spicy from wood aging, the wine has both a crisp texture and freshness at the...

Very classic nose with delicate citrus-blossom and floral-honey notes. Very elegant with a finely etched medium body and a very long, salty yet refined finish. Just beginning to open up. Drink or hold.

Jasmine, white peaches, apricots, bananas, crushed stones, almonds and lemon pith on the nose. Shells too. It’s medium- to full-bodied with a fresh, vibrant palate. Firm and mineral. From organically grown grapes. Try...

The 70-year-old vines at Aux Bouthières grow at a 1.6-acre parcel of deep clay and shale, yielding a lime-scented wine with sweet notes of buttered almonds and coconut. It’s a full and satisfying style of chardonnay...
