92 points Tim Atkin, MW (Decanter): " Faiveley's exemplary Mercurey Premier Cru comes from a substantial six-hectare parcel that faces east on a very gentle slope. Just a little more concentrated than its La Framboisière cuvée - which is also worth buying - this is rich, sunny and full of red berry and bramble fruit with good underlying zip, fine tannins and suave 30% new wood. Drinking Window: 2022-2028. (Oct 2019)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "[$53/750ml list] This red is opulent and silky, laced with black cherry, black currant, toasty oak and violet aromas and flavors. It firms up nicely, with a vibrant structure defining the long aftertaste. Drink now through 2030. (5/31/21)"
91 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2018 Mercurey 1er Cru Clos des Myglands is one of the most charming, immediate wines in the range this year, delivering notes of dark berries, red plums, baking chocolate and spices. Medium to full-bodied, supple and expansive, it's open and velvety, with lively acids and a nicely defined finish. Drink: 2020-2035. (Jun 2020)"
