Lisa Veale –
Clean French Chard with minerally dill notes, dry sourness and subtle lychee. Nice dry finish.
William Goldhirsh –
Cleaner and more balanced than St. Veran. Notes of apple, pear, spice, and nutmeg with a smooth finish. Works well alone or with Plato Pacifico. Worth the price difference.
Jerry Rattanasinh –
Caillot Meursault ’99 is a better match than the salpicon/snapper due to its subtle spice and butter, which complemented the crab better than the minerality.
Chad Thomas –
Perfect match with sea bass and mashed potatoes. The bread and ’04 olive oil were the highlight. Ready for ’01 wine.
Eric Taylor –
Good match with Yet Ranch quail. Brining the quail would retain moisture. Better than the 2000 with plenty of fruit, little acid, and oak.
Donna Cassidy –
Académie des Cinquante Burgundy tasting lacked intensity and length, with only a hint of fruit.
Michael White –
Mineral, mild lemon, and apples on the palate. Soft feel, well balanced. Acceptable value.
Dottie Torres –
Good acidity, hazelnuts and tree fruit, slightly hot due to high alcohol, lacking true grip. Decent village wine.
Joanne Hipp –
A well-balanced wine with butterscotch and mandarin orange notes. Medium-weight with pineapple and mineral flavors. Drink up. 91 pts.
Wilbur Valasquez –
Perfectly paired with crab stuffed salmon, this light straw-colored wine offers subtle mineral notes and mellow fruit flavors.
Lewis Sheley –
Rich with apple and pear notes, not too oaky.
Loretta Chun –
Flat and dry taste with a strong apple flavor. Not pleasant.
Megan Ovalle –
Unpleasant and lifeless wine.
Jenny Colosimo –
Round, could use more subtlety. Better when slightly chilled.
John Caminiti –
Pale straw yellow with floral, toast, lemon and mineral aroma. Full-bodied with distinct acidity. Closed palate, needs time. Very good length.
Jennifer Votaw –
Complex nose, mid-bodied, balancing acidity, long finish. Quality of vintage obvious. Very good for village white Burgundy.
Caroline Nelson –
Clean and elegant with ripe fruit and buttery notes, this white wine lacks intensity despite being in a good stage of evolution.
Renee Prewitt –
Bright tropical fruit flavors with a mellow finish, best paired with food. Expensive at $60.
Maureen Langton –
Improved construction, smooth components, richer texture. Highly recommended.
Tonya Clemens –
Excellent wine with a youthful and developing nose of ripe apples, oaky vanilla, and butter. Palate mirrors the nose with an extra ripe citrus dimension and minerality. Will improve.
Hattie Womble –
Light, crisp, green nose reminiscent of Sauvignon Blanc. Not quite Chassagne-like on the palate, but still enjoyable. 87-88.
Sherrie Shick –
Cellier Wine Fair (Intercontinental Hotel): A youthful wine with subtle oak, almond, vanilla, and ripe apricot aromas. Dry, medium+ body, and acidity with high lemon and oak derived spicy flavors. Citrus medium+ finish. Premium price, very good quality. Drink now but can age.
Kelvin Stallard –
Clos from Fevre is not flat.
William Perkins –
Balanced and pleasant acidity in this light to medium-bodied wine make it a great value.
Derrick Chestnut –
Genka Wine Fair (Intercontinental Hotel): Nutty, buttery, with ripe peach, dry with medium body and acidity. Good quality, premium price, drinking already will hold.
Mary Dahlheimer –
Pale lemon color, oily lemon nose with mineral-driven flavor. Medium-to-heavy with hints of lemon curd and clean finish. Expensive but worth it.
Lee Jones –
Henriot 2014 Burgundy: White florals with herbal flavors and a touch of anise. Slightly astringent, but good. Prefer Puligny.
Gail Walat –
Nice entry-level Chassagne Montrachet with green apple, minerality, and stone aroma. Pleasurable but not complex.
Clifford Bradley –
Crisp citrus with minerality. Long finish. Great value for Burgundy.
Aurora Ferrell –
Clean nose with aromas of light toast oak, chalky limestone minerality, citrus lemon. Simple and refined, good quality.
Anne Lininger –
Good, light-bodied wine. Not as robust as recent white burg, but still enjoyable.
Brenna Taylor –
Creamy nose with focus and charm. Simple compared to Grand Cru Chablis. Flowery with ready Bill notes. Kinda digging it.
Charles Brazill –
Restrained village wine, with nutty, mineral notes and a full body. Oak still present, but will integrate well.
James Helmick –
Fresh and lovely Chassagne with white peaches, pears, apples, and acacia flowers. Medium-bodied with racy acidity. Well-balanced and fresh, but will benefit from aging.
Allen Hernandez –
Dense fruit, precise Chassagne style, aromatic finish. Comforting.
Jimmy Aslam –
Vivid and integrated acidity. Honey wax, white peach, and citrus. Beautiful drinkability.
Roger Veliz –
Improved taste, finished my case quickly.
Yolanda Vela –
Tastes less like a baby, more mineral-y than Puligny, but still like Chassagne. Also cleaner and fresher.
Vivian West –
Bouchard 2018 Tasting: Classic Burgundian with bright flavors and apple aromas. Less flashy than Puligny yet elegant.
Isidro Farmer –
Full-bodied with a creamy and rounded texture.
John Miller –
Fresh and buttery with notes of green apple and pineapple, hints of vanilla and apricot. Medium plus acidity balances the saline mineral-filled finish. Drink now until 2032.
Sharon Gee –
Sorry, but there is no review provided for me to rewrite.
Jan Smith –
Perfect with scallops and Beurre Nantais.
Eddie Jackson –
Creamy texture, slightly warm.
Leticia Day –
Lewis Mcculloch –
Rich and syrupy with yellow fruit and minerality. Lovely Burgundy Chablis.
Kenneth Carlton –
Excellent!
Marc Thomas –
Intensely citrusy with balanced acidity. Takes an hour to open up. Gorgeous!
Shelby Gomez –
Wine is spoiled.
Lynne Bickford –
Impeccably balanced with crisp acidity. Rich, bright and elegant. Superb.
Emma Trueman –
“Smooth buttery taste with hints of pear and green apple. Perfect with appetizers.”
Paul Robinson –
Delicious wine with notes of gooseberry, green apple, and apricot. Medium acidity and a finish of nectarine, citrus, and pepper with a buttery aftertaste.
Sadie Grande –
Creamy and nutty Chassagne-Montrachet with notes of pineapple, grapefruit, green apple, soy milk, and pepper.
