96 JG. "The 2009 Côte de Bouguerots is another great grand cru in the making, but it is a tad more reserved on both the nose and palate than the beautiful Valmur. The bouquet offers up a stunning aromatic mélange of lime, green apple, a touch of pear, stunning, chalky minerality and a lovely floral topnote of white flowers. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and absolutely rock solid at the core, with crisp acids, impeccable focus and balance and a very, very long and youthful finish. A great wine."
