Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2008
Good deep red-ruby. Sweet aromas of dark cherry and licorice. In a fairly gentle style, with smooth, easygoing flavors of black cherry, mint and menthol. I find this rather open today, but less convincing and intricate than it appeared to be from barrel a year ago. Finishes with substantial dusty tannins. Am I missing something?

Bright ruby-red. Scented aromas of black raspberry, rose petal, minerals, licorice and blood orange. Racy and light on its feet; not a dense style of Clos Vougeot but quite refined and perfumed. Finishes with very suave tannins and subtle aromatic persistence. I like this!
