Pretty and well made, with a lovely core of fruit and silky tannins. All in balance for the vintage. Almost 92-94. Score range: 89-91 -JS

Red-ruby. Cool aromas of currant, mocha, graphite, tobacco and herbs; I don't find this wine's typical Vosne-like black fruit and floral character today. Supple and moderately broad but could use a bit more definition and eclat A moderately ripe Rol Valentin, finishing with dusty tannins and a lightly peppery quality. 88 points

Offers white truffle, blackberry and cherry on the nose. Medium-bodied, with round, silky tannins and a fine, delicious finish. Best after 2014. -JS
