96 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "A deep well of pure cherry greets the senses in this generous, yet lively red. Round and relatively accessible, it has a backbone of refined tannins. The core of cherry picks up spice and mineral elements as it winds down on the lingering finish. 60 cases imported. (2/17/21)"

94 points Tim Atkin, MW (Decanter): "Lavaux often shines in warmer years like 2017, thanks to the cooling influence of the nearby combe. The Rousseau family have three parcels in all, totalling 0.8ha, and they seem to have a special affinity with the premier cru. It's subtle, refreshing and ethereal, with crunchy acidity and minerality and sappy pomegranate and red cherry flavours. Drinking Window: 2024-2032. (Nov 2018)"

91-94 points Fine Wine Review: "Here we have red fruits and spice with more energy than in the village wines. Good minerality, too. (3/18/19)"
