*All Prices In Bond* (90-93) / 2028+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (A domaine wine composed of ~40% Butteaux plus 30% each of Forêts and Montmains proper). An overtly floralinflected nose displays notes of pear, apple, citrus confit and mineral reduction.
*All Prices In Bond* Sweet Spot (92-94)/2031+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. From a 2.24 ha holding that is divided between Pied d’Aloup, Côte de Bréchain and Chapelot). A discreet dollop of wood sets off the equally cool and perhaps even slightly more elegant aromas of acacia, citrus, seashore and oyster shell.
*All Prices In Bond* Sweet Spot (92-94)/2031+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (From a huge 3.63 ha parcel out of only 17 ha and most of it is hard by Les Preuses. Séguier calls this their “baby grand cru” as specific barrels are selected for vine age, concentration and power).
*All Prices In Bond* Don’t Miss (93-95)/2033+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (From two separate parcels of vines, the larger of which is in the heart of the “amphitheater” from which the finest examples of Vaudésir originate; from yields of only 15 hl/ha in 2021).
*All Prices In Bond* Don’t Miss (93-96)/2033+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. From two parcels of vines that total 2.55 ha, or 22% of the entire appellation). A deft application of wood frames the beautifully elegant nose of essence of pear, green apple, acacia blossom, lemon rind and a plethora of classic Chablis scents.
*All Prices In Bond* (91-93) / 2029+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. "Sweet Spot" wine. (From a huge 3.5 ha holding that is composed by ~75% of Vaillons proper with the remainder from Roncières, Mélinots and Châtains).
*All Prices In Bond* Bougros: Sweet Spot (91-94)/2031+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (From an incredible ~6 ha parcel). This is also aromatically reserved though determined swirling slowly reveals smoky aromas of green fruit, citrus and mineral reduction.
*All Prices In Bond* Don’t Miss (93-96)/2033+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (From 4 separate parcels totaling 4.11 ha, 3 of which are all at the top of the slope). This too could be from nowhere else other than Chablis with its combination of strong mineral reduction, cool citrus, shellfish and iodine.
*All Prices In Bond* (88-91)/2024+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. A moderately fruity nose reflects notes of lemongrass and enough Chablis character to be attractive. There is solid concentration to the nicely detailed yet rich flavors that deliver better than average complexity on thesaline, dry and lingering finale.
*All Prices In Bond* Don’t Miss (93-95)/2031+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (From a 1.1 ha parcel of vines that is close to Vaudésir and extends all the way from Grenouilles to the tree line at the top of the hill). This could be from nowhere else but Chablis with its nose of crushed algae, iodine, green fruit and shellfish.
*All Prices In Bond* Don’t Miss (93-95)/2033+ Allen Meadows, Burghound. (From a 2.2 ha parcel at the bottom section of the vineyard; even so, the vineyard is so steep here that it must be worked entirely by hand as tractors would be dangerous to use).
*All Prices In Bond* 88-90pts, Neal Martin, Vinous: It has a sunny bouquet with hints of yellow plum and quince, but still well defined and focused, a light flintiness emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with ample weight, fine acidity, not terribly complex...
88-90 pts, Jasper Morris MW: A little more lemon with lime in colour, and a more complete expression of Chablis on the nose, marine minerals alongside the fruit. A fresh lime note comes through on the palate along with the marine character, impeccable balance and very good length.
