Critics Ratings

'A broad-ranging nose is comprised of honeysuckle, anise, clove, lemongrass, brioche and pear. There is an appealing sense of volume to the beautifully delineated, serious, textured and energetic flavors that are both classy and stylish, all wrapped in a hugely long yet delicately balanced finish where a touch of wood influence surfaces. A classy Pucelles of generosity and refinement that should amply reward at least a decade of cellaring.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 93/100 (Jun 2014)

'This bright version evokes lime blossom, apple, hazelnut and stone notes. Lean and athletic, presenting a firm yet refined structure and a long finish of citrus and mineral. The oak is beautifully integrated. Best from 2016 through 2026.' - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 94/100 (Sept 2014)
