Notes:

Allen Meadows' Burghound, July 2007
(from 60 year old vines and the vineyard is a whopping 4ha monopole within Perrières). Not surprisingly, this closely resembles the Perrières aromatically though there is just enough extra ripeness where hints of orchard fruit creep into the mix and continue onto the generous and sappy medium-full flavors that offer a beguiling texture and the same pungent minerality on the balanced and powerful finish. This really packs a punch as the intensity is almost painful and the underlying sense of tension and vibrancy is striking. 93 points

Steven Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 2007
($140; domain wine) Reticent nose hints at minerals, menthol and honey. Fresh on the attack, then almost painfully intense in the middle, with a crystalline purity to the flavors of peach, nectarine, bergamot and spices thanks to powerful minerality. The impression of precision extends through the sappy, rising, extremely long finish. 95 points
