Louis Moreau farms 52 acres in the villages of Beines and Chablis, most of his parcels on sandy clay. He ferments this wine in stainless steel without added yeasts, then ages it on the fine lees. In 2018, he achieved a...

This has a complex nose of sourdough, parmesan, oyster shells, dried pineapples and lemons. It’s medium-bodied, sharp and structured on the palate, with fantastic phenolic tension and underlying chalky minerality. Tight...

A subtle, flinty note of reduction gives way to creamy, chalky lemon on this wine's appetizing nose. The palate then sweeps in with unexpected juiciness and ripeness from the hot summer. A leesy, chalky texture lends...

(90-92 points) The 2018 Chablis Vaillons 1er Cru shows lovely texture and body, with the natural resonance that is such a signature of this warm site. Lemon peel, marzipan, spice and crushed flowers are all nicely...

This wine offers ripe yellow fruit and light spice flavors. Juiciness comes with the citrus tang, allied to a touch of toast and final tight, textured aftertaste. Age the wine more and drink from 2022. — Roger Voss

From a north-facing site that has consequently been denied the premier cru appellation, the 2020 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Courtelongs has turned out very well, unfurling to reveal notions of green apple, orange oil, buttery...

A fine, mature and structured Champagne, this is full of fruit but also with a crispness. Its mineral character has softened but still gives a fine texture. This fine wine, with fruit from the Côte des Blancs, is ready to...

This white shows a sharp underpinning of acidity, which defines smoky peach, stone and lemon flavors. Remains balanced while the flinty, mineral elements build to a lingering conclusion. Drink now through 2027. - BS

(90-93 points) Grown on light soil at the top of the northern end. Clear pale primrose. A less intensely mineral bouquet with a bit of bacon fat. Quite rich with some flesh and a little bit of wood. There is depth to...

The 2020 Chablis Blanchot Grand Cru, half aged in 400-litre oak barrels, has a rather straightforward nose considering the vineyard in question, although it opens with aeration. The oak here is a little obtrusive. The...

Clean, revealing a stony mineral element underneath lemon, apple and baking spice flavors. Balanced on a linear profile, this persists on the lemony finish. Drink now through 2027. - BS

Full pear and candied-lemon nose with quite pronounced, yeasty notes from sur-lie maturation and a hint of tarragon. Quite a rich, bold wine for Santenay, but with a cool, slightly herbal side that balances the ripeness...

(91-93 points) There is an interesting hint of crushed fennel to the aromas of mineral reduction, white pepper and quinine. The medium-weight and stony flavors are not quite as dense though they are finer while displaying...

(91-93 points) Here the restrained nose is more floral but less citrus in character with moderately prominent spice and quinine nuances adding breadth. The palate impression is one of contrasts as the succulent and round...

2019 proved a difficult vintage; down 15% due to the difficult flowering, the heat and lack of water. Despite all of these factors, this wine - assembled from ten different parcels - is exceedingly lovely, with ripe...

From the family domaine of Aubert de Villaine who, in 2022, stepped down as co-manager of Domaine de la Romanée Conti after 48 years. In this 2021 vintage wine, instead of being sourced solely from Bouzeron, seven parcels...

91+ Notes of white flowers, crisp green orchard, fresh bread and bee pollen preface the 2018 Rully 1er Cru Les Margotés, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and lively wine that's elegant and incisive, concluding with a...

An attractively layered nose combines notes of lemongrass, green apple, mineral reduction and a whiff of petrol. The highly energetic middle weight flavors possess an appealing mouth feel while delivering solid depth and...

(93-96 points) Most of the vines are massal selections planted between 1972 and 1978. Sulphured before the harvest and racked after. Pale lemon and lime, very stylish. Really refined, a touch of the expected juniper and...
