In the recent Decanter Magazine Steven Spurrier writes “Compared to 2009, the 2010s are less rich but more precise. Compared to 2008, they are more rich and more balanced. Precision and purity were the buzzwords during the tastings, then character and depth; elegance wasn\u2019t mentioned, as it was common to all.”<\/p>\n

Sarah Marsh, also in Decanter, says of the whites:
\n“Lovers of proper white Burgundy should not hesitate to snap up the 2010 vintage. The style is more classically Burgundian than 2009, driven by firm acidity, but also ripe. This equitable profile will hold much appeal, but there is precious little of it.”<\/p>\n
