WINE SPECTATOR 95 POINTS - "Extraordinary in its finesse, elegance and reserve, this velvety Burgundy subtly ambushes your palate with fantastic layers of toasted oak, ripe and exotic fruit flavors and masses of creamy, ripe tannins. The finish doesn't stop. *Highly Recommended*."
BURGHOUND 94 POINTS - "The nose is just beginning to reveal the barest trace of secondary aromas with subtle nuances of violets, earth, spice, smoke and hints of game that precede robust, structured and very dense, almost robust flavors that deliver outstanding length. There is not the finesse and almost perfect balance of the '96 but there is much more density and mid-palate sap plus a finishing note of chocolate. This is still relatively young and should last for 30+ years."
