97 points Vinous"The 2016 Suduiraut is fabulous. Crème brûlée, passion fruit, tangerine peel and exotic floral notes all race out of the glass. I marvel at how Suduiraut can deliver so much flavor intensity and yet remain so gracious...

94 points Allen Meadows, Burghound"A beautifully complex, elegant and gorgeously pure nose offers up notes of violet, plum and a broad range of spice elements that are trimmed in just enough wood to notice. Just as with the Bèze there is seriously...

Jancis Robinson"Also rich and slow, like the Folatières – heavy with its oak mantle. But the Garenne does have more freshness and racy acidity. Lime and lemon zest. Long in the spine and mid line, promising magnificence if you wait...

Jancis Robinson"According to Claudine Blain, this vineyard is more calcareous, giving a more austere but longer-lived wine than the straight Chassagne.First impression is creamy and gentle but on the palate, there's tight, steely power. Pure, stony and...

96 points Wine Advocate"The 2018 Valbuena comes from a cooler vintage with good yields that required sorting and selecting in search of a happy and vertical version of Valbuena, pushing a little more and giving the wine a little more oak, especially...

93 points Vinous"The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Noirs is a pure Pinot Noir largely fermented in oak with most of the wines having avoided malolactic fermentation. Creaminess and creamy oatmeal surround slight hints of plum on the nose. The rich and...

92 points Jasper Morris"Full lemon yellow. A very attractive bouquet with a little bit of flesh behind. Not too full on the palate with crunchy limestone minerals filling the mouth. Nicely balanced with the oak, and a clean medium to long finish." 91...
