91-93 points Neal Martin (Wine Advocate): "The 2015 Corton Grand Cru, which contains a little Corton Bressandes, has been offered since 2012. It has a fragrant and perfumed bouquet, floral with red cherry and cranberry leaf, and a vein of fine mineralité underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, moderate depth but good tension, with a tightly wound and understated, lightly grippy, white pepper-tinged finish that suits it absolutely fine. Drink: 2020-2035. (Dec 2016)"
90-93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from Le Corton and Les Bressandes). A discreet but not invisible application of wood frames the pronounced floral-suffused aromas of both red and dark berries along with plenty of earth, game and forest floor scents. There is excellent size, weight and power to the solidly concentrated broad-shouldered flavors that deliver fine length on the somewhat toasty finale. My sense is that the wood will ultimately be successfully integrated but it's not subtle today. Drink: 2027+. (Apr 2017)"
92 points Stephen Tanzer (Vinous): "(13.7% natural alcohol): Bright, light red. Reticent aromas of redcurrant and orange zest. Compellingly pliant, silky and voluminous, with very ripe red berry and milk chocolate flavors dominating. Large-scaled but not overextracted. Finishes ripely tannic and essentially smooth, if with a touch of alcoholic warmth. In a rather full-blown style. (Jan 2018)"
