Tim Atkin: Pale straw. Struck match and grilled hazelnuts on the nose. This is a Puligny wannabe that succeeds rather well: It’s refined, nutty, and complex, with attractive leesy notes, well-integrated vanilla oak, some citrus and cinnamon, and impressive length and definition. Fresh, nuanced, and well-made wine - 18

Stephen Brook: Grassy, oaky nose; it resembles an oaked Chablis. Rich and quite full-bodied, this has some weight and plumpness on the palate but is sustained by attractive acidity. This is quite an imperious wine, with a good deal of personality and persistence. It has both tang and force. Quite good length - 16

Alex Hunt: Fairly deep gold for its age, and with a smoky/grilled-vegetable aroma. There is certainly some interesting, edgy winemaking here. Tautly powerful, savory, and flirting with VA , this is a refreshingly different take on the genre, and it has enough cohesion and unity of purpose to succeed - 16.5
