95 JG. "The 2009 Valmur is one of the undisputed stars in the William Fèvre cellars this year and is a profound bottle of Chablis grand cru in the making. The brilliant nose offers up a very Raveneau-like aromatic mix of candied lemon, apple, orange, kaleidoscopic minerality, spring flowers and a faint whiff of grassiness in the upper register. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, very, very pure and rock solid at the core, with great, nascent complexity, racy acidity, laser-like focus and excellent grip on the very, very long, young and classy finish. A tour de force!" John Gilman, View From the Cellar, Nov/Dec 2010, Issue #30 |
