2012 White Wine

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2012 Chardonnay Isobel (980 cases) comes from 31-year-old vines planted in the Charles Heintz Vineyard, and spent 13 months in 39% new oak. It offers classic notes of tangerine oil, apple blossoms, caramelized citrus...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (WA91-93 points) The 2012 Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrieres, which is from the domaine and was one of the first to be picked, has better precision on the nose compared to the Charmes. The palate is well-balanced with a...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 points: The 2012 Director’s Reserve White is a blend of 74% Sauvignon Blanc and 26% Semillon raised in 30% new French oak for nine months with regular lees stirring. It has a more herbaceous and earthier bouquet compared to the...

Burghound, 91 points: (88-91) Here the nose has a slightly Asian tea-like character along with petrol elements on the ripe orchard fruit scents. There is very good richness and volume to the delicious and seductively textured middle weight...

Burghound, 91 points: (BH89-91 points) This is almost as closed and unyielding as the En Remilly as the nose only grudgingly gives up notes of mostly white orchard fruit, floral and soft citrus nuances. There is outstanding richness and volume...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 points: Though harvested around the end of September and in the context of a concerted effort to achieve moderate alcohol, at 12.5% the Pichler 2012 Gruner Veltliner Federspiel Klostersatz is on the border of what would when that...

View From The Cellar, 92 points: (92+) The 2012 Grande Montagne has really turned out beautifully, for despite this wine being produced from some of the very youngest vines at the domaine (twenty-five years of age), the short crop has given this wine...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (WA91-93 points) The 2012 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs-Gain has a little more new oak than the other premier crus at around 30%. The wood is neatly folded into the fruit on the nose with delicate white peach...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 2012 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru comes from 2.5 hectares of vine, equivalent to one-third of the surface area. It has a generous bouquet with scents of lime flower and cold stone, hints of chestnut on the...

Wine Enthusiast, 90 points: Made in a drier, tarter style than the winery's Russian River bottling, this Chard favors elegance over opulence. It's streamlined and crisp, with subtle notes of green apples, kumquats and honey, gently touched by smoky oak.

Wine Spectator, 93 points: A rich, focused white, with pure, lush flavors of apple, Asian pear and gooseberry accented by engaging notes of salted almond. Lemon cream and spice details linger on the ripe, rich finish. Refined and alluring. Drink...

Vinous, 90 points: (90+) Palish yellow. Pear, white peach and nutmeg on the nose. Distinctly savory and dry, with salty minerality currently dominating underlying fruit. Boasts good depth of flavor if not the power of the Narvaux; in a...
