Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Savigny-les-Beaune Les Jarrons emerges from the glass with layers of dark red fruit, sweet spices and minerals. It shows terrific depth, freshness and vibrancy from s...

Wine Spectator: Thick and spicy, with unctuous, still slightly raw-seeming layers of apricot, peach and fig. Ginger cream and green tea check in on the finish. Rather backward still, but ther...

Neil Mechanic: Medium dark ruby. The bouquet is packed with dried Morello cherry, forest floor and earth tones laced with Chinese five spice and cinnamon notes. After a decant, Pommard's cla...
