95 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .63 ha parcel). An overtly sauvage nose features game-inflected aromas of dark berries, plum, floral and earth nuances that also exhibit a hint of smoke. Somewhat unusually, this is also quite finely detailed and while this is openly powerful, it's not at all rustic or tough though it is exceptionally tight and backward at present on the impeccably well-balanced finish. This is even more restrained than the Rugiens and like its stable mate, it's pointless to acquire this without the express intension of forgetting it in your cellar. That said, this offers fantastic upside potential to those who have the patience. Drink: 2030+. (Apr 2012)"

94 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2009 Corton 'Renardes' chez Gaunoux is truly stunning and is a step up from the excellent Grands Épenots in this vintage. The deep and utterly classic nose delivers an exciting blend of cherries, red currants, orange peel, a great base of stony minerality, coriander and other, more exotic spice tones. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very, very transparent, with a rock solid core of fruit, firm, but very refined tannins and stunning length and grip on the focused and very well-balanced finish. 2017-2050. (Nov/Dec 2012)"
