As the notes attest, Guffens is one of France's greatest white winemakers. The quality of his wines in so-so yers such as 1991 shames many famous names. In 1992 the overall quality level is extraordinary.Guffens' 1991s are immensely successful wines. Verget's 1991 Chassagne-Montrachet-Morgeot shares the same freshness, in addition to gorgeous structure, vivid clarity, a long, rich, buttery, apple blossom-scented nose, and steely, rich flavors. It should drink well for 4-5 years. These are truly the wines of a genius. I suspect their quality is so high it will shake-up a lot of white burgundy producers who have been resting on their historical reputations for far too long. The wines of Guffens are proof of the great quality that can be achieved without compromise. For that, consumers who care should be thankful. Bravo to Jean-Marie Guffens-Heynen!
