Vinous (N. Martin): 87-89/100 "The 2024 Bourgogne Aligoté Cuvée Saint-Urbain contains fruit from Aux Boutières this year [0.8-acre vineyard in Marsannay] this year, matured in stainless steel. This has a vigorous nose with touches of yellow plum, pithy pear and honeysuckle scents. Fine delineation. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bread of acidity, taut and linear, perhaps just missing a bit of chutzpah on the finish but it is a decent Aligoté that will give four or five year's drinking pleasure."
