The 2021 vintage is sumptuous and textured—“the most sensual wine in the range,” bursting with aromas of confit citrus, poached pear, white flowers, praline, and freshly baked bread as noted by Wine Advocate’s William Kelley (95 pts) . Wine Spectator awarded it 96 points for its vibrant flavors and vivid citrus spectrum—lemon, orange peel, and yuzu—accented by apple and stone minerality . Descriptors like “block of power” and “almost painful intensity,” especially compared to its Bienvenues‑Bâtard counterpart, come from Jasper Morris MW (95–97 pts) . Decanter gives it 94 points, praising its floral-suffused palate and seductive texture finished with striking persistence and power . Together, these evaluations confirm a deeply layered, commanding Grand Cru with both opulence and precision.
