Lea & Sandeman review
Spicy fruit too, like the Chaintré, but here this is, as Daniel puts it, 'beaucoup plus tonique'. Lots of citrus from these high-altitude vines, which have performed particularly well in this hot vintage.Other reviews and comments
I adore the stoniness and tautness on the nose of this Macon, the palate very well poised on the entry with touches of passion fruit and lemon peel, nice weight towards the Chablis-like finish. Excellent wine and great value.

Quite a rich nose and real definition on the palate. Lots of minerals and interest. Manages not to be too fat. Well done! Quite long. I went back and tasted this again after their richer wines and still think it’s the best value of the lot because of the freshness... GV

(this vineyard abuts the Pouilly-Fuissé vineyard of La Roche below). An airy and attractive nose of spiced pear and white flower aromas precedes detailed, racy and minerally flavors that possess slightly more prominent acidity, especially on the tension-filled, dry and punch finish. This is also really very pretty. 2012+
