94 points Jasper Morris, MW: "The colour offers a solid purple centre while the medium deep red fruit on the nose suggests a compromise between power and elegance. In the mouth this wine develops beautifully: a fine bright generous fruit, pure red in style, and weighted to the back of the palate, taming the oak nicely. This has the longest aftertaste of the three Mallard Cortons. Tasted: October 2018."

92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2017 Corton Les Renardes Grand Cru, which contains around 60% whole bunches, has a wonderful, fresh, vibrant bouquet of blackberry, raspberry and crushed stone aromas. There is wonderful precision and detail here. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and crisp, featuring fresh acidity and a little more backbone and panache than the Corton-Rognet. This Michel Mallard’s finest in 2017 - a great wine with good aging potential. Drink: 2022-2038. (Jan 2019)"
