Acclaim
“The 2022 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru has a bright, citrus-fresh bouquet with mandarin, hints of white peach and crushed chalk scents that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, cohesion and impressive depth. Yes, it leans toward the richer side, yet it maintains superb balance with satisfying nerve on the finish. This punches well above expectations.” — Vinous, Aug 2024
