94 points (17/20)/'Coup de Coeur de l'Année,' La Revue du Vin de France: "The palate is a little firm, and the juice is underlined by the wood in a nuanced way. Perfect maturity and restrained overall. The palate reveals a fairly concentrated substance, well tamed by ageing. (2017)"
93 points Ulrich Sautter (Falstaff): "Candied sweet cherry, thyme, raspberry, revealing some future complexity. Burgundy-like sinewy palate, full-bodied, supported minerally, well-integrated acidity, with youthful-looking clinging tannins, still closed fruit, with an almost astringent combination of minerality and substance. (10/13/16)"
92 points Neal Martin (Wine Advocate): "The 2014 Morgon Côte du Py James underwent a 14-day maceration and is matured in exactly the same barrel formation as the Javernières, even bottled the same day. The only difference is that these vines are located towards the top of the hill. It has a luscious black cherry, cassis and fig-scented bouquet that is outgoing and vivacious. The palate displays very fine substance, more weight in the mouth than the Javernières with layers of pure, salted licorice-tinged dark cherry fruit fanning out on the finish. This is a superb wine from Jean-Marc. Drink: 2017-2027. (Jun 2016)"
