"Bitouzet has 2 parcels, one in Charmes du Bas and another in Charmes du Haut that he vinifies, and raises, separately but then blends . . . . beguiling freshness and punch to the pure, detailed and racy flavors that possess that lovely sense of tension that makes the flavors and finish come alive in the mouth, particularly on the cuts-like-a-knife finish. This well-balanced and strongly persistent effort will need up to a decade of cellar time before it reaches its apogee."
