jamessuckling.com, 92 points: The limestone here is a guiding influence with fresh lime and green-mango aromas, as well as wet, chalky stones. The palate has a very fresh and composed feel with supple, fleshy fruit and a nicely composed finish. Good...
Decanter, 95 points: There aren't many vineyards in Beaune that make world-class Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, but the Clos des Mouches is definitely one of them. This effortlessly stylish white from chalky soils on the southern side of Beaune...
Wine Spectator, 91 points: A plump version, boasting melon, peach, cinnamon and toasted spice flavors. Balanced by lively acidity, with the spice and peach elements echoing on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2023. 200 cases imported. — BS
Wine Spectator, 94 points: Plush, evoking butterscotch, vanilla, clove and nutmeg top notes wrapped around a core of peach and apple flavors. Firms up on the finish, but a year or two in bottle should help this find equilibrium. A smoky mineral...
Decanter, 96 points: This is the less wooded of the two Les Clos bottlings from the Pinsons, but it's still quite a rich, powerful style. It's dense and complex, with notes of baking spices, subtle stone fruit and a saline, minerally...
Wine Spectator, 95 points: This white starts out with plenty of flesh, featuring apricot and lime flavors, with a hint of the sea, before firming up and revealing a racy side as this winds down on the long finish. Shows plenty in reserve and a lot...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (WA 91-93 points) The 2017 Chablis 1er Cru Les Roncières hails from a parcel where the vines are planted east-to-west, so its grapes are never exposed to direct sunlight. It's a charming, medium to full-bodied wine, with...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: 94+ The 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chaumées Clos de la Truffière was marked by a light touch of reduction, with leesy top notes of nutmeg and bread dough mingling with its bouquet of orchard fruit, confit...
Burghound, 92 points: This is aromatically similar to the Limozin save for the smoky character is more prominent. There is more size, weight and power to the medium weight plus flavors that benefit from the abundant sap that serves to buffer...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (WA 91-93 points) The 2017 Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons Les Minots hails from one of the sunnier, warmer lieux-dits within the larger climat of Les Vaillons, and it typically produces a more generous, gourmand wine; it's...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: A new Savagnin bottling, the very young 2017 L'Etoile Savagnin Ouillé Les Budes fermented and aged in 500-liter topped-up barrels, a style that has never been produced at Montbourgeau before. This wine was produced by the...
