WEINWISSER: "Aufhellendes Gelb mit grünlichem Schimmer. Geniale Mineralität in der Nase, Terroir, weisser Rauch, weisse Trüffel und helle Edelhölzer, dezent grüne Ananas und sonnengereifte Zitronen. Komplexer Gaumen, frisches Extrakt, dennoch cremiger Fluss, ein mild-eleganter Wein klassischen Zuschnitts. Der beste trockene Weisswein des Jahrgangs 2010 – wenn das keine Affäre wert ist!"
WINESPECTATOR: "Ripe and lush, with lots of creamed yellow apple, melon and white peach flavors carried by an alluring, lightly toasted brioche note. This has the vintage's punch in the end, kept honest by a lively citrus accent. Drink now through 2014. 1,250 cases made."
JANCIS ROBINSON: "Pale gold. Very fresh Sauvignon nose. Then sweetly rich palate. Quite a powerful cocktail! Lots of alcohol. Very rich."
JAMES SUCKLING: "What a wine, with wonderful intensity of lemon, limes, dried papaya. Full and layered for a white. It goes on for minutes. This estate is rocking now. Tasted twice."
ANTONIO GALLONI: "The 2010 Malartic-Lagravière Blanc, a blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Sémillon, has an effervescent bouquet with orange sorbet and white peach aromas. It is very well defined, playful even. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite linear and taut at the beginning but it brims over with energy: brisk and spicy with a dab of lemongrass towards the persistent finish. It does not have the density of other vintages but it compensates through sheer energy. Tasted at the vertical tasting at Malartic-Lagravière."
THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "The wine has picked up steam, dropped some of its youthful ok trappings and offers more invigorating, lemon, lime, pomelo and floral sensations. Rich in texture, yet with an equal amount of lift, this is really good in your glass today."
FALSTAFF: "Helles Gelbgrün. Weiße Blüten, ein Hauch von frischer weißer Tropenfrucht, zart nach Grapefruit. Mittlere Komplexität, zart blättrig, zitroniger Touch, grüner Apfel im Nachhall, mineralischer Touch, extraktsüßer Abgang, ein vielseitiger Speisenbegleiter."
THE WINEADVOCATE: "This full-bodied blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Semillon hit 14.5% natural alcohol. It is deep and rich, with loads of caramelized grapefruit, tropical fruit, subtle oak, wet stones and plenty of melons. Drink now-2035."
