Goedhuis, December 2022
From vineyards just outside the appellational boundaries of Puligny Montrachet but within the commune of the village. Aromas of fresh yeast, pannacotta and tangerine. A bright and fresh style, with a charming ease and soft graceful finish.

Neal Martin, January 2023, Score: 86-88
The 2021 Bourgogne Blanc has a more pithy nose than its peers, with touches of wild peach and candle wax complementing the malic scents. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, hints of Clementine and sour lemon with fine tension on the simple, yet effective finish. Drink 2023-2028.

Jasper Morris MW, December 2023, Score: 86-87
Made in barrel and foudres with some purchased grapes. Pale to mid lemon. Some tension on the nose, not much flesh. A little greengage with a slight bitterness, medium length, fills out better at the back. Drink from 2024-2026.

Region
Bourgogne
This blanket regional appellation can apply to wines throughout Burgundy (60% of the area's production) as long as they comply with regulations relating to grape type, yield and alcohol content. Reds and roses are from Pinot Noir or Gamay. Whites are Chardonnay. They are usually the most straightforward of the Burgundy wines, and as a result are the least expensive and the most approachable upon release. In the hands of a more serious producer these can represent exceptional value and quality. The wines are made with the same care and attention to detail as their grander wines. However, they may not qualify for a village or communal appellation because the vines are too young or the vineyard area is outside the appellation boundary.
