Description

92-94 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): “(12% potential alcohol chaptalized to 12.2%; no new oak): Lime, quinine and white pepper on the pungent nose. Densely packed and adamantly stony, with electric cut to the middle palate. Finishes with a firm citrus edge and excellent length. This seems as vibrant as a 2010, and more austere than the 2011 Cailleret. (Sep 2012)”

91-94 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): “(100% from Corton-Pougets). This is also wonderfully fresh and pure with a nose of Granny Smith apples, lemon rind, white flowers and wet stone. There is plenty of size and weight to the sleekly muscular flavors that enjoy excellent mid-palate density while displaying an intense minerality on the saline, dry and lengthy finish. In much the same fashion as the Narvaux this will need some bottle age to develop better depth but the potential is certainly present. This is a Corton-Charlemagne of power and finesse. Drink: 2021+. (Jun 2013)”
