Critical Acclaim:
91-93 points Vinous
"The 2019 Saint-Aubin Clos de Meix 1er Cru is very intense on the nose with light liquorice aromas accompanying the citrus fruit. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, hints of white chocolate and almond developing towards the finish that feels persistent. Very fine. (NM)" 12/2020)
90-92 points Allen Meadows - Burghound
"An exuberantly fresh nose features notes of just sliced citrus, mineral reduction and green apple. The middle weight flavors are almost painfully intense that deliver fine persistence on the lemony and bone-dry finale that isn't really austere." (6/2021)
90-92 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"Notes of fresh peach, mandarin oil, white flowers, smoke and nutmeg introduce the 2019 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Clos du Meix, a medium to full-bodied wine that's rich and fleshy but also incisive and saline, exemplifying the vintage's alliance of concentration with acidity. (WK)" (1/2021)
