93 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2010 Montmains was bottled in early September. This is primarily Butteaux fruit, which gives it a bit more amplitude from the riper fruit tones that Butteaux typically attains, which coupled with the stunning minerality of the 2010 William Fèvre lineup makes for a very exciting wine. The wine offers up a superb nose of apple, lime, ripe pear, complex, chalky minerality, lime zest and apple blossoms. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and very, very minerally in profile for a Montmains bottling based so predominantly on Butteaux fruit. The finish is very long and racy, with great focus and cut. A beautiful bottle in the making. 2016-2040. (Nov/Dec 2011)"

90-92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(a domaine wine composed of <50% Butteaux and then Forêts and Montmains proper in roughly equal amounts).As one would reasonably expect given the similar proportions, the nose closely resembles that of the négociant version except here there is more obvious citrus and oyster shell influence. This also is blessed with an abundance of acid-buffering dry extract on the mid-palate and it confers a wonderful mouth feel to the seemingly sweet flavors yet the beautifully persistent finish is quite dry. Worth considering. Drink: 2016+. (Oct 2011)"

91 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Pale yellow-green. Tight, pure nose offers lime, spices, fresh herbs and white pepper. Densely packed and sharply delineated, with lovely cut to the flavors of lemon-lime, spices, flowers and minerals. Finishes long and pure, with intense citrus flavors that leave the mouth refreshed. (Jul/Aug 2012)"

17/20 points Michel Bettane (The World of Fine Wine): "Scents of white flowers, then high-toned citrus fruits; ripe quite showy fruit, fine acidity, and a saline, mineral-driven finish. (Issue #35; 2012)"
