Jasper Morris: 94-97 Points

Clean pure yellow. The bouquet is over and above the Charmes. Juniper and verbena depth and poise concentration without heaviness. Then a pure white fruit with appropriate flesh. Not just intensity on the palate but depth of flavour as well. It is true that they are beautifully placed with their large plot of Genevrières Dessus but even so chapeau! Oak is present but perfectly integrated. Given the summer I never imagined we would be able to achieve this freshness this detail!

Like the Poruzots there is a noticeable phenolic character to the slightly riper aromas of jasmine tea white peach and floral nuances. The gorgeously textured medium weight flavors possess excellent mid-palate density along with ample minerality that adds a sense of lift to the bone-dry moderately austere and impressively long finale. This too will need to develop more depth though if it does it could well merit the upper end of my projected range as this is really quite stylish. (Drink starting 2028)
