Sarah Marsh:

28 ares and the vines are 20 to 80 years old vines. This is a blend of one third Les Duresses and two thirds Les Bretérins. The latter has a due south exposure and is on a steep slope of white marl. Very straight and bright aroma. Splashing red fruit. So sweet on the attack. It has supple tannins. Just a little plump in the middle and singing with fruit. Fresh and lively. Fine textured tannins, just a little bite and a tight chalky edge. Real clarity of fruit and precision. Score 17 From 2015
