Notes:
Allen Meadows' Burghound; October 2010
A more elegant as well as more refined but also much more reserved nose of white flower and salt water aromas is very much in keeping with the equally refined, pure and silky middle weight flavors that possess excellent detail and precision on the textured and seductive finish that displays grand cru level persistence. This is not quite as rich as the Butteaux but it's finer as the chiseled flavors are flat out gorgeous. In a word, stunning. Â 94 Points and Outstanding!
John Gilman's View from the Cellar; Nov/Dec 2009
The 2008 Montée de Tonnerre will be another outstanding bottle of Chablis. The bouquet is deep, complex and still quite tight, as it regretfully offers up scents of grapefruit, lemon, green apple, kaleidoscopic minerality and incipient notes of lemon oil in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, crisp and racy, with a rock solid core of fruit, bright acids, impeccable balance and great length and grip on the very minerally and snappy finish. A stellar vintage for the Montée de Tonnerre. 93+ Points.
