95 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .27 ha parcel, most of which is young vines of 15+ years of age though there is a parcel approximating 15% of the total with <40 years of age, 80% whole cluster). Whispers of oak and menthol can be found on the plum liqueur, spice, wild flower and earth-scented nose. There is outstanding size, weight, punch and concentration to the broad-shouldered and imposingly muscular flavors that possess superb underlying tension that is particularly prominent on the balanced, complex and hugely long finish. This is most impressive but very clearly built-to-age. Drink: 2030+. (Jan 2018)"
95 points Tim Atkin, MW: "As it was in 2014, this is the best of a refined, beautifully understated range from Virgile Lignier, which always puts the emphasis on perfume and texture rather than power and tannin. Scented, subtle and refreshing, this has just the right amount of oak, with black cherry and raspberry fruit, some orange zest and a spicy, peppery lift. 2022-30. (Jan 2017)"
