Decanter (Charles Curtis MW ) 92 pts! The Côte de Lechet from Tribut is more incisive than its Beauroy, with more freshness and a pronounced oyster-shell minerality. Grapefruit citrus aromas are prominent and the lively acidity keeps the wine juicy through an impressively lingering finish. The grapes come from a 0.8ha parcel planted on steep slopes in very little soil atop the Kimmeridgian bedrock. This will be better after three to five years in bottle and should age for a further 15 years beyond that. (Drink between 2028 - 2045)
