ROBERT PARKER " Tasted from pre-prepared samples at the Domaine. This debut Corton comes from a 0.19-hectare plot that has been run en fermage since 2008. The nose has a taut, slightly chalky nose with great definition and lift, the fruit taking time to unfurl. The palate has very fine, silky tannins with a sorbet-like freshness and a touch of cooked meat an unexpected surprise on the aftertaste. This is an intriguing debut. Tasted November 2010. "
