Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Sep 2008

(Boudot's eight village parcels were picked with average potential alcohol of 13.5%) Somewhat exotic aromas of mirabelle and earth. Broad, rich, full and sweet, with the mirabelle flavor carrying through in the mouth. Slightly warm but with solid minerality and stuffing. This is good already, but its lowish pH of 3.21 suggests that there's no rush to drink it.

Slightly exotic aromas of mandarin orange and honey. Fat, sweet and round, with a thickness unusual for this village wine. Just this side of heavy, but saved by solid acidity.

The barest hint of exoticism adds a bit of aromatic interest to the ripe peach, apricot and herbal notes that continue onto the delicious, concentrated, rich and impressively full flavors that possess excellent balance and lovely harmony. This is a fine villages and I like the citrus-infused finish. Worth your consideration.
