Score 89/100 · Drink 2012, Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, Aug 2011
Gilles Jayer doesn’t get as much press as he deserves. His 2009 Bourgogne Hautes Cotes de Nuits is absolutely beautiful in this vintage. Pears, white flowers and citrus are just some of the notes that emerge from this impeccable, exciting wine. This is a fabulous effort from start to finish. The 40% Pinot Blanc no doubt contributes to the wine’s freshness. Floral, mineral notes wrap around the refined finish. Readers looking for an under the radar 2009 white should start here. Incidentally, this is a wine that has often aged far better and longer than its humble pedigree suggests. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. Importer: No US Importer
