Wine Critics Notes:
Allen Meadows - Score: 93(2019 Oct.)
Here too soft wood is present on the wonderfully floral and citrus imbued aromas that are laced with hints of mineral reduction and quinine. The gorgeously textured medium-bodied flavors possess much better depth and persistence on the well-balanced finale. This classy effort should be lovely and age gracefully for years.
Vinous - Score: 93-95(2018 Aug.)
The 2017 Chablis Montée de Tonnerre demands coaxing from the glass, developing enticing spicy, Asian-inspired aromas amongst the typical flinty scents. The palate is fresh and vibrant with crisp acidity, very linear in style but with tension from start to finish. There is wonderful salinity in this Montée de Tonnerre with just the right amount of bitterness on the aftertaste. This brims over with potential.
