Robert Parker (94)

Predominantly based on Pinot Gris that is cultivated on the very rocky soils on the east flank of the site, the 2018 Grand Cru Mambourg offers a deep, pure and aromatic, pretty Burgundian bouquet of crushed stones, blood oranges, almond cakes and iodine. Full-bodied, fresh and quite intense on the palate, this is a powerful but pure and fresh Mambourg with fine tannins and structural, fruity bitters on the finish. Mathieu Deiss compares it with Hermitage Blanc, yet I wonder if the wine has the richness and generosity of perfect ripeness. It was raised in Burgundian pièces for one year. 14.46 % stated alcohol. Bone dry. Natural cork.

James Suckling (96)

Deep nose of dried pear and melted butter with notes of cinnamon and cooked quince. Rich and full-bodied, but by some miracle it remains restrained, delicate and fresh. All this stands on a base of very fine tannins, giving the expansive whole a seriously dry personality. Long, complex finish with some real mystery. A field blend of traditional varieties, focused on the pinot family of grapes. From organically grown grapes with Ecocert certification.
