Robert Parker - 90 Points

"A new cuvée chez Ramonet, the 2018 Mâcon-Péronne is one of the sleepers of the portfolio, offering up aromas of pear, mint, citrus oil and pastry cream, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping palate that's textural but lively, girdled by succulent acids and framed by a classy patina from its maturation in barrel. I suspect this will be at its best young, but it certainly gives a great deal of pleasure today."
