91 points Rebecca Gibb, MW (Vinous): "[$25 list] The 2010 Origine du Haut Bourg is a satisfying, mellow style that's spent 11 years on lees, developing a creamy sensation throughout its now-expansive mid palate. Hailing from 70-year-old vines, it is round and satisfying; its naturally fresh acidity pierces that rich core and provides line and length on the finish. The mouth is embraced gently on the lightly structured finish, providing a seamless coating to the cheeks long after you've tasted this wine. Drinking well now but will continue to hold and gain more bottle-age characters with time. Drink: 2021-2028. (Nov 2021)"
91 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$25 list] After tasting this remarkable wine, who can doubt that Muscadet can age? It is beautifully perfumed, still with creamed-apple fruit plus touches of nuts and plenty of tangy acidity. It has no sign of age, just extra richness. Drink now. Alcohol 12%. (Sep 2020)"
