92 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2011

(bottled four days before I tasted it):  Good pale yellow.  Very pure, laid-back aromas of citrus peel and crushed stone, with hints of flint and smoke.  Dense and ripe, with an impression of sucrosite buffered by penetrating citrus and grapefruit flavors and a firm spine of acids and minerals.  This very rich, gripping wine dusts the palate with lemon zest and crushed stone on the very long, perfumed finish.  A superb and complete 2009, and a stunningly good village wine.  There's almost no topsoil over the limestone here, notes Picq.  This may be even better than the 2008 version.
