Vinous (93)(this was bottled in May of 2005, whereas all of the above 2003s were bottled during the summer of 2004) Steely aromas of pineapple, stone, spices and mint; shows a distinctly metallic minerality. Then sweet, dense and rich, with outstanding depth of pineapple and stone flavors. Expands impressively on the back half, and finishes with resounding persistence and great purity. Accessible already but should be better with another couple years of aging. Very suave Montrachet. This wine should not explode now and then fade away, notes Frederic. |

Jancis Robinson (19)Very fresh and lively and layered. Rich but lots of green notes too. Very powerful yet delicate. Lots of richness. Reverberates, very, very exciting. Extremely muscular. |

Vinous (97)The truly amazing 2007 Joseph Drouhin Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche is a vinous work of art. Still incredibly young, the 2007 offers a tight core of remarkably pure pomaceous orchard fruit, lemony minerality and a hint of waxy butteriness that is hard to forget. An infant but already splendid, the 2007 is going to develop into something even more memorable than it already is. |

Vinous (94)The 2008 Montrachet Grand Cru is a vintage that I had not tasted before. Véronique Drouhin commented that the clement harvest weather saved the vintage, but it was a small yield with small berries that were high in acidity. The 2008 is showing beautifully at the moment. It has a fabulous bouquet of honeycomb, yellow flowers, crushed stone and even a touch of gingerbread. The palate conveys an effervescent quality, showing veins of orange peel and mandarin, and less mineralité than the 2009 but a fine saline finish. It improves in the glass, so do not be afraid to decant this. Tasted at the Montrachet vertical in London. |

Vinous (96)The 2009 Montrachet Grand Cru is now beginning to flex its muscles. It was an “easy vintage,” according to Véronique Drouhin, cropped at 20hl/ha from September 15. Appearance-wise, it is similar to the 2011. The bouquet is surprisingly tight at first but then opens its arms with just a few swirls of the glass, offering heady scents of honeysuckle and yellow flowers and a touch of crushed pebble underneath. The palate boasts impressive precision considering the warmth of the growing season. Wonderful penetration and drive are evident here. Grilled walnut and nutmeg emerge toward the finish. Just superb. Tasted at the Montrachet vertical in London. |

Vinous (98)The 2017 Montrachet Grand Cru is slightly deeper in color. This has a gorgeous bouquet of lemon thyme, orange blossom and crushed stone, all very focused, followed by an emerging touch of mintiness. The harmonious palate is powerful, ripe and slightly vanilla-y; it just lacks a little breeding and panache. A bold and brassy yet cerebral Montrachet that will need a lot of time. This surpasses all my expectations from barrel. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2018 Montrachet Grand Cru comes from the two-hectares on the Puligny side, comprising five parcels vinified separately (although I tasted the final blend). It has a very pure bouquet and, especially for Drouhin, an intense bouquet of lanolin, walnut and pressed flower aromas that if anything becomes even more powerful with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with superb balance, almost symmetrical, and just the right amount of salinity. This is a vibrant, precise Montrachet with touches of sea salt and ginger toward the very persistent finish, which fans out with brio. Deeply impressive. |

Vinous (95-97)The 2019 Montrachet Grand Cru (Marquis de Laguiche) is very intense on the nose, featuring subtle licorice scents tucked behind the citrus fruit; this seems to expand with aeration. The palate is beautifully balanced with a playful entry of apricot and quince. It builds beautifully in the mouth, revealing hints of crème brûlée and almond shavings toward the well-defined finish. Hints of chai tea and grilled hazelnut swirl around on the aftertaste. This is a long-term Montrachet. |

Vinous (97)The 2020 Montrachet Marquis de Laguiche Grand Cru is consistent with my previous tasting in January. Exquisite definition on the nose, real mineralité here. The palate is intense and penetrating, touches of orange zest and spice building wonderfully towards the finish. Excellent. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (96)The 2021 Montrachet Grand Cru (Marquis de Laguiche) has a bit of freshly squeezed lime on the nose that tends to dominate the aromatics at first. This ebbs away with aeration, revealing more limestone and crustacea scents. The palate is fresh and, again, quite lime-driven at first, though that dissipates with time in the glass. Fine mineralité, tensile, gaining weight and grip towards the finish. Like Bouchard Père's Montrachet, it needs four to five years to really show its mettle but it certainly has pedigree. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. |

James Suckling (100)An unusually bright, light-gold color with hints of green in it distinguish this rare wine from the first glance before rich, layered and complex aromas lead to even richer poached pears, hazelnuts and cream on the palate. Full-bodied but light on its feet, the wine shows deft balance, great depth and incredible length on the finish. Best from 2028. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-97)Glowing mid lemon. The nose is quite restrained. The majesty of the Montrachet builds slowly on the palate with a fine thread of acidity to keep the intensity of fruit in place. All in white fruit, much less exotic, not yet really showing all its paces, so expect much more from this later on in its life. The length shows that it will happen. Drink from 2033-2045. Tasted Nov 2024. |

Vinous (92+)Pale, bright yellow. High-pitched aromas of orange peel and tangerine lifted by bright floral and crushed stone qualities. Highly concentrated, supple and chewy, conveying an impression of power to its lemon, orange, floral and mineral flavors. Sappy, silky, rich wine with an enticing touch of sweetness countered by firm acidity. Frederic Drouhin suggests pairing this wine with poulet au citron or seafood linguine. |
