JancisRobinson.com: A parcel in Brézé. Sandy-silty clay over tuffeau. 70-year-old vines. Aged 12 months in tank and barrel. First vintage of this cuvée. Certified organic. Pale, luminous colour. Discreet nose but definitely has depth. Sharp and precise on attack. Live-wire tension and acidity. Saline finish. Very pure but tight and tense. Needs time to unwind. 12.5% alc. Drink now-2030.” 16.5+ points

Vinous: “The 2021 Le Bourg is sited on one of the area’s most coveted sites, Brézé, offering a salty, tightly-wound style. There are lemon, almond and apple flavours on this light-bodied, yet firmly poised white with a sense of chili spice and salty notes. One of the main challenges here is children from the neighbouring school kicking footballs into the vineyard! Drink now-2033.“ 92 points
