Score 18/20 · Drink 2016-2025, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2022
ID 415066. 66 ingredients in the blend, with wines from five different years back to 2002. Recreated round the 2007 harvest, which constitutes 68% of the blend. 47% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay, 16% Pinot Meunier. There was no Édition number on the label of this wine, made just before it was put there. Most of the red wine grapes came from Aÿ, but also Bouzy and sometimes Mareuil. Really quite a deep orangey colour. Real evolution on the Pinot-dominated nose. Flattering breadth with a relatively low acid impression. Firm structure. Very long. (JR)
