93 Allen Meadows - Burghound

"A classic Vosne nose that is ultra spicy, complex, layered and extremely stylish with rich and relatively powerful flavors that possess ample volume and are supported by very finely rendered tannins, a suave mouth feel and excellent length. In a word, terrific."

93 Stephen Tanzer - Vinous Media

"Deep, saturated red with ruby tones. Captivating aromas of blackberry, violet, crushed stone, minerals and bitter chocolate; suggests a wine with great sucrosite. Then wonderfully suave and silky on the palate, with lovely sweetness cut by tangy acidity. Fully ripe, strongly spicy berry and mineral flavors perfume the mouth and linger impressively on the broad finish. This really transcends the vintage; today I prefer it to the comparatively liqueur-like 2009."
