96 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "Latricières-Chambertin is the cooler climat than Chapelle, and for that reason, it always excels in ripe, warm vintages such as 2015. This is more reserved than the flamboyant Chapelle, but every bit as stunning, as it soars from the glass in a mix of black cherries, cassis, bitter chocolate, grilled pigeon, a great base of dark soil tones, woodsmoke and a bit of nutty new oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and properly reserved in personality, with a rock solid core of black fruit, great soil signature, fine-grained, ripe tannins and a very long, very pure and chewy finish. Another magical wine. 2030-2100. (Nov/Dec 2016)"
96 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "A discreet application of wood frames the even more complex nose of high-toned, cool and airy aromas of red and dark cherry, forest floor, rose petal and spice elements. The sleek, intense and once again highly sophisticated middle weight plus flavors brim with both minerality and dry extract that buffers the even firmer tannic spine shaping the hugely long and impeccably well-balanced finale. This is relatively succulent for a young Latricières but I suspect that the present inviting mouthfeel will be replaced in short order by something firmer and more austere. In short, this is stunningly good but it is not likely to make for especially inviting early drinking. Drink 2035+. (Jan 2018)"

95 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2015 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru has a refined bouquet of pretty, slightly tertiary red berry fruit laced with subtle oyster shell scents. The fresh, vibrant, medium-bodied palate presents fine-grained tannin, crisp acidity and a succinct, mineral-driven, detailed finish that does this grand cru proud. Bon vin! Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. Drink: 2022-2050. (Nov 2018)"
93-95 points Neal Martin (Wine Advocate): "The 2015 Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru cannot quite match its "sister", the Chapelle-Chambertin, in terms of precision and energy on the nose, here more conservative as you would expect—more correct and well behaved with its blackberry and raspberry leaf aromas, though there is still fine mineralité. The palate is very well balanced with crisp acidity, notes of cold stone, hints of dried blood tincturing the black fruit with that energy filtering through on the finish. This is composed and utterly charming. Drink: 2019-2035. (12/30/16)"
