94/100 Points - Jeremy Oliver
"Fine and silky, this elegant and tightly knit wine needs time to evolve into a Volnay-like expression of pinot. Already quite evolved, it reveals rustic, reductive and briary scents of dark plums, red cherries, smoked meats and dried herbs. Dark and penetrative, supported by dusty, grainy tannins, it's supple and restrained, delivering a pristine expression of cherry/plum fruit that should steadily build with time in the bottle."
Jeremy Oliver On Wine, 23/06/2006.
