93 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2012 les Fuées from Monsieur Mugnier is gorgeous, delivering a very svelte, pure and soil-driven bottle of Chambolle. The superb bouquet is a fine aromatic mix of cherries, blood orange, nutskin, woodsmoke, gamebirds, fresh herb tones, coffee, just a touch of oak and a wonderful base of soil. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very intensely flavored, with a sappy core, striking soil signature, ripe, velvety tannins and great length and grip on the tangy and perfectly balanced finish. This is going to be stellar. 2022-2050. (Nov/Dec 2013)"

92+ points Stephen Tanzer (Vinous): "Bright, dark red. Black raspberry, cherry, coffee, black pepper and noble herbs on the expressive nose. Very ripe, creamy and deep, with an impression of alcoholic power giving the wine plenty of early muscularity too. The rich crushed-berry flavor shows good medicinal reserve. (I much prefered this 2012 to its 2013 sibling, as I found more energy here.) Finishes with slightly dusty tannins and firm minerality. Drink: 2023-2034. (Mar 2015)"
