布根地權威Allen Meadow講過: "我早已講過,但我要再重複: 在Macon, 沒有人能同Barraud所釀的酒相提並論。其它酒莊偶爾也會產出同樣出色的酒,例如Guffens, Cordier 和Robert Denogent, 這些酒莊我也都逐一評價過。但他們中沒有一個能超越Barraud一如既往的高質量。如果你至今還不了解Barraud的酒,那你真是對不起你自己,也對不起你的錢包了。"
93 pts Wine Advocate:
From vines below the rock of Vergisson, Barraud's 2017 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Crays Vieilles Vignes opens in the glass with aromas of fresh pear, peach, white flowers, mandarin oil and nutmeg. On the palate, it's full-bodied, satiny and concentrated, with a tight-knit core, racy acids and considerable amplitude, concluding with a chalky finish. As usual, it's finer-boned and more tensile when compared with the fleshier Verchère.
92 pts Allen Meadow,Burghound:
A softly exotic array manifests notes of white peach, dried apricot, passion fruit and a pretty floral component. On the palate there is once again an attractive mouth feel to the solidly concentrated and lavishly proportioned medium weight flavors that brim with dry extract while delivering fine length on the citrusy if mildly warm finale.
93 pts Decanter Magazine:
Tucked under the imposing rock of Vergisson, this vineyard goes up to 400 metres, making it one of the higher sites in Pouilly-Fuissé. Like many of the wines from cooler spots, this has performed very well in 2017. The 20% new oak adds some vanilla sweetness, complementing the fresh, crunchy citrus and stone fruit flavours.
