SIZE: 1500ML MAGNUM BOTTLE 

Awards, Ratings & Reviews

93–95/100 — Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy · 2022 Vintage · Tasted Jul 2023
“Glowing translucent pale green. The bouquet has impressive intensity, with the faintest dusting of coconut. This is from barrel. A very concentration intense white apple fruit, with more wood behind. This is still too young to give a real sense of where it will get to, but clearly there is fine potential. Drink from 2030.”

92–94/100 — Neal Martin, Vinous · 2022 Vintage
“The 2022 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a bright and lively bouquet, quite effervescent with candied orange peel, lemon zest, crushed stone and linden flowers. A lot of energy here. The palate is very well balanced with a touch of wild honey on the entry. This seems to have cohered a little more since last year, lightly spiced with a touch of white pepper on the aftertaste. Wonderful.”
