Tasting Notes"Clear pale lemon yellow. Still a little reserved but there is a clear sign of quality here, with the stony side of Meursault, plus a little citrus. A lovely dimension on the palate, with ripe apple, before a fine long finish. Not a rounded Meursault but a fine one. Drink from 2027-2032. Tasted Oct 2024. 90-92 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"75% wood and 25% in various types of neutral container. Pale lemon. A fine and classy nose with no wood in evidence, more of a mineral character, but no dominating reduction, just a whisper to add complexity. Behind you can see the rounder fruit of Meursault. Really lovely in the mouth with just a trace of barrel toast at the back. Otherwise, orchard fruit with the sweeter edge of adequate ripeness. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Oct 2024. 90-93 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"Mid lemon yellow. Quite a robust white fruit on the nose, verging on the more exotic but well in balance. Significant volume of fruit in the mouth, backed by good acidity. This is robust and healthy and a fine example. He has backed off the oak here – doesn’t need it. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted Oct 2024. 91-93 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"A pale lemon and lime. Super clear. The bouquet needs a little coaxing, with a citrus touch, exceptionally precise and refined, like the Chassagne shows its class and style much more on the palate. Middleweight, very persistent. I can see how this would grow as you work your way down the bottle. Drink from 2027-2030. 90-92 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"Mid lemon yellow. The Garenne seems riper and softer than the previous wines, with some yellow plums, but still the delicacy of all the Sauzet wines this year, and with an agreeable, almost floral, long finish. Ripe citrus zest on the nose. The Sauzet team work the vines and buy the grapes. Drink from 2027-2031. 90-93 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"A slighter fuller lemon and lime colour. The bouquet suggests greater density of fruit. A light lick of oak which suits the more clay-based wines. Excellent energy, the oak backing up the fresh vigour of the fruit, and a well-balanced finish. Not the ripest, but quite powerful. Drink from 2028-2035. 92-95 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"The 2023 Chablis Village has a more floral bouquet. White flower hints complement the citrus fruit. The palate is lively and fresh, with good concentration and a touch of bitter lemon with ample weight on the finish for a Village Cru...Drink 2024-2029. 88 points" Neal Martin, Vinous.com------"This is aromatically similar to the Petit Chablis with more evident floral influences as well as a bit more Chablis typicity. There is also a bit more volume to the sleeker and more vibrant flavors that are agreeably textured and punchy without the slightly rustic finale. This too should drink well after only 2ish or so years of keeping. 88 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Pale colour. The bouquet shows the stones as it should, with white orchard fruit behind. A little lactic and buttery though entirely in stainless steel. More energy behind leaves a fine crisp aftertaste. Drink from 2025-2027. 88 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com |

Tasting Notes"The nose is still carrying vestiges of the malolactic fermentation and is unreadable. On the palate though there is good freshness to the appealingly vibrant medium-bodied flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the persistent, agreeably dry and detailed finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth. 89-91 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Made in concrete eggs, not yet racked or sulphured since Les Forêts has only just finished fermenting. Still in its lactic phase. Very embryonic, though there is a promising weight of fruit. A bit of fresh liquorice, this is potentially one of the more energetic wines in the cellar and I expect it to develop well from here. Drink from 2027-2032.

Tasting Notes"Now blended into tank, having been entirely vinified in wood. Mid lemon yellow. Perhaps the wood is a little more marked here. Good bright fruit in the middle with vibrant acidity but the wood is indeed less well integrated, for now. Drink from 2027-2032. Tasted Jul 2024. 89-91 points" Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy.com"More subtle though still easily perceptible oak influence is present on the more floral-suffused aromas that feature notes of Granny Smith apple, spice, wet stone and a whiff of iodine. The mouthfeel of the middle weight flavors is notably finer, though not denser, while retaining good delineation to the stony and sleek finale. This is still quite primary though if it can add depth with a few years of bottle age, it should be quite good. 89-92 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound |

IB | |||||
Tasting Notes"Collet explained that this had just been racked and filtered yesterday so not surprisingly, it was quite firmly reduced and revealing almost nothing. More interesting are the finer but not denser middle weight flavors that possess good vibrancy if only average depth before concluding in a bitter lemon-inflected finale. 87-90 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"All made in stainless steel. Pale lemon colour. Quite exotic white fruit. A luscious perfume sitting on top of the stones, which reappear at the back and deliver some welcome tension. Which part will dominate later?

Tasting Notes"Once again the nose reflects moderate wood influence though it easily allows the slightly riper if otherwise similar aromas to shine. There is also excellent intensity to the denser and more powerful broad-shouldered and sappy flavors that possess a supple mid-palate that tightens up noticeably on the solidly persistent and nicely dry finale that could also use better depth. 90-92 points" Allen Meadows' Burghound------"Still in barrel. Some fresh pale yellow colour. Ripe orchard and plum fruit, plenty of generosity. There is fair length, possibly just a little light in tension through the middle, becoming more generous again right at the finish. Drink from 2028-2034.

Tasting Notes(Domaine Gagey) "This works the better of the two white Beaune 1ers Crus with oak and fruit well balanced on the nose. It is, oddly enough, a wine which really benefits from ageing, despite the immediate attraction of the almost sweet fruit. Good acidity interacts with the ripe citrus and fresh apricot. Fine length.

Tasting Notes(Domaine) "A mix of Abbaye de Morgeot and Francemont. Pale primrose in colour, demonstrating the restrained but classic feel of Chassagne after a series of Meursaults. Quite chiselled, even quite reductive on the palate, a pure white fruit, with impressive length. Will need time really to show itself.
