'I'm sorta kinda lovin' what's going on at François Lamarche at the moment.... Nowadays, they are fashioning just the kind of Pinot Noir that I adore: unforced, natural, elegant and very terroir expressive. The tasting notes speak for themselves. This was a deeply impressive set of wines that were an absolute joy to taste.

'A domaine that continues to make great strides under the current generation. " - The World of Fine Wine, Issue 47
