Critics Ratings

‘Luscious and silky, with complex flavors of black cherry, plum, sweet wood smoke, licorice and bacon. Powerful and persistent, this delivers terrific balance and a lingering aftertaste of spice and mineral notes.' - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 95/100 (May 2012)

'The 2009 Clos de Vougeot is impressive. Fresh, floral aromatics meld into a core of silky red fruit. The Clos de Vougeot tannins are there, but beautifully balanced by the textured, persistent fruit. The finish is feminine, persistent and impeccable in its elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029.’ - Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, 91/100 (May 2011)

‘Light crimson. Relatively light nose. Lots of bright fruit. Kept in check with some grand cru subtlety and intensity. Still quite painful to taste at this early stage but clearly there is lots of potential here.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (Jan 2012)
