93-97 points Fine Wine Review: "Faiveley’s Latricières-Chambertin always seems to be top notch, and 2012 is no exception. The wine is dense, deep, and pure with a touch of licorice (typical for Latricières). The wine is penetrating, nervous, and mineral with plenty of energy. (5/20/15)"

92-95 points and 'Don't miss!' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a very large 1.21 ha parcel). A pure and manifestly earthy and sauvage nose offers up notes of red and dark currant, humus and underbrush. There is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the beautifully delineated medium weight plus flavors that possess terrific focus and plenty of minerality on the strikingly long finish. As is usually the case this is markedly austere at present and will need plenty of cellar time before it's ready for prime time but it should be well worth the wait. (Jan 2014)"

92-95 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Good bright, dark red. Complex, high-pitched aromas of pomegranate, nutmeg, orange peel, licorice and pepper. Nuanced and stylish but youthfully tight, showing outstanding definition and lift its tart red berry and stone flavors. Finishes long and brisk, with outstanding energy. This should enjoy a long and graceful evolution in bottle; my range may eventually turn out to be conservative. (Jan 2014)"
