92-93 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "Brilliant violet color. An expansive bouquet evokes ripe black/blue fruits, potpourri and olive paste. A lively mineral nuance builds in the glass. Shows impressive depth and energy on the palate, offering sappy dark berry, spicecake and violet flavors that are braced by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows an appealingly light touch for its heft and finishes on a subtly tannic note, displaying sharp delineation and mineral thrust. (Jul 2019)"

92 points Joe Czerwinski (Wine Advocate): "Hints of peppery spice and licorice add complexity to the blueberry and cassis-scented nose of the 2017 Cote Rotie Ampodium. It's medium to full-bodied, with silky but firm tannins and a long, dusty finish. It should be approachable in a couple of years but drink gracefully for a decade and a half. Drink: 2021-2035. (Dec 2019)"

92 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Beautifully perfumed, with loads of black raspberries, gamey meats, truffle, and exotic spice, the 2017 Côte Rôtie Ampodium is medium to full-bodied, with a layered textured, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This brilliant Côte Rôtie will benefit from short-term cellaring and cruise for a decade. Drink: 2020-2030. (12/12/19)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "[$90 list] White pepper and sandalwood accents lead off in this traditional-style Côte-Rôtie, with gently mulled cherry and red currant fruit forming the core. A lavender note infuses the dusty-edged finish. Best from 2022 through 2030. 1,800 cases made. (9/30/20)"
