Michael Schuster: Lightly honeyed nose; well balanced, firm acidity, nice concentration; quite a broad, fullish style in the year, without the bite and definition of the Montée de Tonnerre, but with a fleshier fruit impression; prolonged across the palate, lemony/minerally to taste, long and warm to finish. Complete, impressive, fairly weighty premier cru. Whether you prefer this or the Montée de Tonnerre is a question of style. 2011–18+. 16.5/17
