2020, Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Clematis Vitalba, Claire Naudin 87-90 pts, 4 stars
Clematis Vitalba has a little more yellow in the colour and a riper bouquet than Bellis Perennis. The fruit is sunnier too and is weighted further back on the palate. Some cooked citrus with apple and plum. Again there is excellent length. I have a very slight preference for the extra freshness of Bellis but it is a question of style not quality. Tasted: December 2021. Jasper Morris, MW, Inside Burgundy
"...they are as demonstrative as they are vibrant and precise. Several producers with longer memories agree that the vintage is similar in spirit to the 1990 white Burgundy vintage, even if the conditions were obviously somewhat different 30 years ago." William Kelley, Wine Advocate on the 2020 White Burgundies
