Wine Advocate (92)The 2015 Chablis 1er Cru Forets has a tightly wound bouquet, perhaps a little resinous compared to other premier crus, with a touch of nutmeg developing with aeration. The palate is very well balanced with a citric twist on the entry—touches of orange zest and clementine leading to a pretty, poised and quite elegant finish. What a beauty this Forêts is becoming. |

Vinous (92+)The 2016 Chablis Forêt 1er Cru is a little more tight-lipped on the nose compared to the Les Montmains, requiring more coaxing from the glass. That could be a sign of bottle shock. The palate is very promising with a crisp line of acidity, gentle grip and a live-wire, spicy finish that matches the exotic style of the vintage. This warms up in the glass and shows great potential, but may require your patience. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-95)Pale colour with green tints, very fresh, there is even a little bit of noble reduction. The 2018 Forêts delivers an absolutely scintillating, crystalline purity. There is impressive weight on the palate, balanced by a refreshing greener element to the fruit. |

Burghound (93)(Outstanding) A cool and airy nose freely offers up its aromas of green apple, quinine, shellfish and lemon zest. The utterly delicious but solidly intense flavors are sleek and mineral-infused while displaying very fine length on the bone-dry, clean and well-balanced finale. This too is very promising, indeed it's even better than it usually is, and should develop well over the next decade plus. |

Vinous (92-94)A wine of textural depth and resonance, the 2018 Chablis Monts-Mains 1er Cru shows terrific power and richness in its broad, sweeping feel. Even with all of its density and overtness, the 2018 retains terrific freshness to balance things out. |

Vinous (94)The 2019 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru has a wonderful, refined bouquet. A little earthier than the Vaillons, with undergrowth and chalky scents coming through. The palate is well balanced, with good concentration and real depth and grip but also elegance. Hints of nutmeg and white chocolate appear toward the persistent finish. Superb. |

Vinous (93)Bright, pale yellow-silver; remarkably light for a 19-year-old white wine from anywhere! Aromas of lime and lemon zest, pear, crushed rock and marrowy minerality display captivating purity. At once supple and penetrating, beginning with an energetic lemony tightness but eventually expanding in the middle palate and spreading out on the back end. This compellingly fresh, still-youthful midweight is not at all a thick style of Chablis--nor does it possess the 2002's sweetness of fruit--but it's brisk, precise and bone-dry, with urgent wet-stone salinity and sneaky rising length. Yet another superb and uncompromising example of this classically austere vintage for Chablis. |

Vinous (91+)Reticent, very pure aromas of citrus skin, apple, wet stone, spearmint and spices. Spicy, quite dry and uncompromising; dense, fat, full and minerally. Not higher in sugar than the foregoing samples but more glyceral in texture. Finishes long, classically dry and minerally. This really transcends the vintage. |
