Score 86-88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Dec 2016

(20% new oak: Medium red. Aromas of red raspberry, strawberry, brown spices, game and chocolate. Juicy, slightly rustic flavors of strawberry and earth. Finishes with dusty, slightly drying tannins. There's good material here but in a rather unrefined package. This wine will not be made in 2016 owing to the damaging hailstorm.

The 2015 Marsannay les Vaudenelles offers crisp redcurrant and cranberry scents on the nose, nicely defined if still seeking a little harmony. It just needs more time to knit together. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh red cherry and strawberry pastilles, leading to a fine saline finish. Enjoy after 12-18 months in bottle.

Super-fresh aromas of red cherry, currant and floral scents serve as an inviting introduction to the vibrant and attractively intense middle weight flavors that terminate in clean and delicious finish. I like the energy; indeed this wine just makes one feel like drinking it. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
