Allen Meadows - Score: 88 (43009)

A more elegant and fresher array of cool, ripe and relatively airy aromas reflects notes of pear, apple and a hint of lemon peel. There is good richness and concentration to the caressing medium-bodied flavors that possess solid mid-palate fat that also culminates in a notably powerful finale. Interestingly, this isn't as dense but it's better balanced.

Vinous - Score: 89-91 (42552)

(picked a full week after the hailed-on sections): Pale, bright lemon-yellow. Very pure aromas of lemon, menthol and minerals. Deep, rich and ripe, with enveloping if slightly exotic grapefruit and lemon curd flavors. A distinctly easygoing wine with subtle lemon oil sweetness. This fruit, picked before the Petit Chablis, was a bit diluted by the heavy rain that fell with the hail, according to Isabelle Raveneau.
