Description

The domaine has just under two hectares here, in two plots running from top to bottom in the heart of Forêts. The wine is floral and lemony, with a charming openness. The attack has a creamy, lemon-curd character along with some white flowers, while the finish is tangy and stony.

Critics reviews

Jasper Morris MW 90-93/100

Pale lemon yellow. The bouquet suggests that the Forêt will have a little more flesh on the bones than the more austere Montmains. Floral notes as well as ripe apples. A light citrus rinse at the back, and no reductive character.

Drink 2025 - 2030

Tight and precise on the palate, this will really benefit from additional time in bottle. Flint allied to peach underneath. Bright, vibrant acidity; give this at least 12 months. In Forêts, the bedrock is only 1m below the surface, with much rockier soils.

Drink 2025 - 2032
