John Gilman's View from the Cellar, Nov/Dec 2010 The 2009 Les Preuses is another magical young bottle of Chablis. The brilliantly complex nose offers up scents of apple, pear, lemon, chalky minerality, spring flowers, beeswax and a touch of orange peel in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and flat out profound, with striking purity, great mid-palate depth, superb acidity and simply stunning length and grip on the perfectly focused finish. This has the mineral drive and purity of the best 2008s. A great wine in the making. 2018-2045+. Â 96+ points
Burghound, October 2011 A discreet touch of wood sets off fresh, cool and reserved aromas that are elegant, airy and citrusy before merging into rich, intense, pure and admirably precise medium-bodied flavors that possess really lovely balance and superb length. While there is also an almost invisible hint of wood on the backend, it should be absorbed quickly and overall, this is a spherical wine of perfect proportions and class. 95 Points
