Decanter, 94 Points 

"Ripe apricot fruit, with hints of quince and spice on the nose, this is superbly elegant, with a subtly plump texture and impressive length; a superb wine. Colin owns 0.65ha spread over three parcels in this lieu-dit. The grapes were lightly crushed and fermented mostly in large neutral casks, with a high proportion of lees. Malo finished in March, with no batonnage at all." 

Wine Advocate, 93 Points 

"The 2020 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly has turned out beautifully in bottle, wafting from the glass with scents of pear, citrus oil, clear honey, white flowers and wet stones. Medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, it's pure and lively, with bright acids and a long, saline finish." 

Jasper Morris, 90-92 Points 

"Mid lemon. Not so much nose, a touch of cooked stones at the back but there is good fruit too, just not quite so much flesh as Chatenière. Possibly a gap between the fruit and the stones." 

Burghound, 91 Points 

"Smoky aromas are comprised by the hallmark citrus nuances of a classic En Remilly while being complemented by cool notes of apple, pear and white flowers. There is again excellent underlying tension to the beautifully textured middle weight flavors that are at once precise and moderately austere on the mineral-driven finish. This isn't quite as concentrated as the Chatenière but it's finer. *Burghound Outstanding!*"
