Burghound,
"An attractively fresh and bright nose is comprised by notes of various white fleshed fruit and citrus zest. There is both good volume and punch to the equally bright middle weight flavors that possess better than average depth on the clean, dry and sneaky long finale. One to consider. *Burghound Outstanding!*"
Wine Advocate,
"The 2020 Bourgogne Chardonnay offers up aromas of pear, crisp green apple, freshly baked bread and oatmeal, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and precise palate, concluding with a chalky finish. As usual, it derives from four parcels—in the communes Meursault, Saint-Aubin, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet—in the Côte de Beaune. The 2020 vintage is another very promising year for Pierre-Yves Colin, who finds the wines a bit more charming and demonstrative than the more serious, structured 2019s—the latter a vintage we revisited in bottle and which appears to possess considerable aging potential. As readers may know, Colin's bigger cuvées are crushed and see four-hour press cycles, whereas smaller cuvées aren't crushed but see even longer press cycles lasting five or more hours. Vinification and maturation in barrel, with a heavy emphasis on larger-format barrels, follows."
