92 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2009 Gevrey V.V. is another superb example of the vintage chez Bachelet. The nose offers up a complex and vibrant blend of black cherries, cassis, coffee bean, a great base of complex soil, woodsmoke, incipient notes of grilled meats and a deft touch of new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and beautifully textured, with superb focus and balance and lovely grip on the tangy and ripely tannic finish. A terrific vintage for this consistently excellent old vine bottling. 2016-2040. (Nov/Dec 2010)"

90-92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes powers through the palate with an authoritative core of dark fruit. This shows quite a bit of muscle and density. Minerals and crushed rocks wrap around the intense, building finish. Drink: 2014-2024. (May 2011)"

89-92 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from vines averaging between 60 and 70 years of age). A subtle application of wood sets off black and purple fruit aromas, in particular plum, as well as notes of spice and stone, both of which can be found on the rich, intense and palate soaking flavors that also abound with extract. Between the ripeness and the ample extract this could easily be top heavy but in fact there is excellent focus and balance. Villages level wines are rarely found at this quality level. Drink: 2015+. (Jan 2011)"
