Bourgogne Blanc 2007

This is always one of the friendliest Bourgognes on show and this is no exception with its bright, crunchy apple and zesty attack and pure, clean lines. Drink from release. - armit

Chassagne Montrachet 2007

Racy, mineral and very elegant, this is classic Chassagne, combining refreshment and vitality with a little nuttiness. Drink from release. - armit

Pure and racy and much more transparent than the Blain-Gagnard example. Chalky texture and ethereal aromas. Lifted and very persistent. Well done! Drink 2010-14 – 17 points, Jancis Robinson MW, jancisrobinson.com, 29th January 2009

Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Chenevottes 2007

This is lighter and zippier than in recent memory with its minerality heavily accented and a tingling purity for all to see. This is a real success for a vineyard that tends towards heaviness in hotter years. Drink from 2010. - armit

Slight struck-match reductive note, mineral. Dry and taut and yet really zesty. Bit of a coiled spring right now. Mouthwateringly fresh and still it lingers on and on. Drink 2011-16 – 17.5 points, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, 29th January 2009

Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru En Virondot 2007

Steely, pure and direct, this is another wine of the soils, with flints and crushed pebbles combining with fresh flowers in a delicate but dazzling bouquet. On the palate there is greater volume on show and a clear indicator that patience will be required to see this at its best. Drink from 2011. - armit

Cloudy following recent batonnage High-pitched grapefruit and floral aromas, with some exotic high notes. Dense, lush and sweet, with enticing mineral and floral notes leavening the wine's texture. A level beyond the foregoing samples in intensity and complexity. Finishes silky and long, with lovely density and cut. This well-drained hillside is favored in a rainy summer like 2007, noted Mollard, who added that the vines' foliage can easily be stressed in drought years. - 88-91 points, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 08

Stinky smoky nose - almost rudely raw on the palate. Still very chewy with some strong green notes. Bone dry and muscular. Very correct and admirable. Medium intensity. Drink 2012-15 – 17+ points, Jancis Robinson MW, jancisrobinson.com, 29th January 2009

Bâtard Montrachet 2007

Another Bâtard that has its natural exuberance checked by the zestiness of the vintage, this shows richness and ripeness but without ever putting a step out of line. This is not showy or loud but rather relies upon its inner quality and profundity to convey its status. Drink from 2012. - armit

Quite cloudy; this was just stirred for what Mollard said was the last time. Citrus fruits, flowers and stone on the nose, which is quite precise in light of the wine's hazy appearance. Juicy and tight, with considerable sweetness currently dominated by firm acidity. Opened nicely with air to show lovely floral complexity and a hint of licorice on the back end. This fruit was picked at the end with 13.4% natural alcohol, and yet the wine does not come across as particularly fleshy. - 89-92 points, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 08

2007 vintage report

As ever, there is a simplicity and directness to these wines with the Bourgogne and Chassagne villages suggested early drinking although the 1er crus, especially the Virondot, are so racy and promising that a few years in the cellar are advisable.
