92-94 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(blended from 3 separate parcels). An attractively complex and unusually refined nose speaks of red currant, kirsch, soft earth and a hint of wood spice. There is a refined mouth feel to the larger-scaled flavors thanks to the fine grain of the ripe and well-integrated tannins on the mildly austere and impressively long, indeed even explosive finish. This is terrific and the backend offers the same excellent depth the nose promises. Lovely stuff. Drink: 2026+. (Jan 2013)"

90-93 points Stephen Tanzer (Vinous): "Good bright, deep red. Cherry, rose petal, mocha and game on the nose, plus a hint of metallic minerality. Dense, sappy and youthfully tight; less expansive today than the Echezeaux and more peppery too. Has a serious spine for aging but seems a tad dry in the early going. (Jan 2013)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "[$225 list] This red bursts at the seams, with the acidity and tannin structure exerting force on the cherry and spice flavors. The finish is all oak today, so be patient. Best from 2017 through 2027. 138 cases imported. (3/31/14)"
