Score 93+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2012

Good medium red. Slightly reduced, reserved aromas of kirsch , minerals and clove. Quite taut in the mouth, and showing much more energy in bottle than it displayed from barrel in November of 2010. The medicinal redcurrant and red cherry fruit flavors are complemented by saline and pronounced spice qualities. Ultimately silky and classy wine, with a long, clinging finish that shows continuing spice character. This needs a good eight to ten years of bottle aging.

Score 91-94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jan 2011

Full red-ruby. Reticent but pure aromas of blackberry, violet, minerals and bitter chocolate. Juicy, intense and densely packed, with a thickness of texture leavened by lively acidity and stony minerality. Not a particularly floral or delicate style of Musigny; on the contrary, this is quite marked by the warm year. Finishes long, with substantial dusty tannins. This will probably require a decade in the cellar.
