Media Reviews
Jasper Morris
Mid lemon yellow. An attractive, balanced bouquet showing that this part at least of Aigrots is white wine territory. There is plenty of flesh on the bones but it retains a compact assuredness, good acidity, lightly saline and persistent. Drink from 2027-2033. 91-93 points
Neal Martin
The 2022 Beaune Blanc Clos des Aigrots 1er Cru is the only white cuvee with some new oak (10%), more to maintain the rotation of barrels. A more floral nose with pressed white flowers and a touch of Turkish delight, this blossoms in the glass. The palate is very well-balanced with a keen thread of acidity. Unlike the Meursaults, however, it doesn`t quite kick on towards the finish, where it feels a little conservative. 87-89 points
William Kelley
The 2022 Beaune 1er Cru Clos des Aigrots Blanc offers up aromas of minty pear, apple, white flowers and almonds. Medium to full-bodied, ample and incisive, with tangy acids and a penetrating finish, this has turned out especially well. 91-93 points
