John Gilman: It is always a good sign when the Drouhins decide to bottle their les Baudes on its own, rather than blend it into the Chambolle "Premier Cru" bottling, as this wine is only b...

Burghound: ...the underlying fruit does appear ripe and this impression is corroborated by the clear phenolic maturity of the supporting structural elements that are firm but not hard on...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright ruby-red. Fresh red berries and star anise on the assertively perfumed nose, with a suave floral quality adding complexity. Juicy, palate-coating strawberry and raspb...

Jancis Robinson: Leaf-mould nose that is most attractive. Racy and lively. Bone-dry finish. Needs to take on a bit more fat before it's seductive. But it is much fleshier than the 1993. Drink ...

Jancis Robinson: Dark ruby. Nervy, violets, fully developed and gorgeous. Sweet and maybe a bit too much for purists but it certainly delivers pleasure! Drink 2007 to 2017. 18 / 20

Jancis Robinson: Easy and round and seductive whiff. Roses and liquorice and pure pleasure even if not the freshest. Drink 2006 to 2018. 18 / 20

Wine Spectator: Light on its feet, with pretty strawberry and floral aromas and flavors in modest proportion, persisting nicely. Drink now through 2014. –HS

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good full, bright red. Highly expressive aromas and flavors of raspberry, crushed strawberry, smoke, mocha, pepper, herbs and spices. Sweet and lush in the mouth, with punge...

James Suckling: Pure fruit with strawberry and flowers. Very aromatic undertones of lemon rind. Full body with firm and lightly chewy tannins. Wonderful tannin tension to the fruit. Keeps it ...

Wine & Spirits: Woodland scents of tart cherries and black raspberries carry though this wine's lean texture, broadening out into a juicier finish. It has a gentle sophistication, clean, refi...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright ruby. Much more reticent on the nose and palate than the village wine, with a pronounced minerality to the blackberry and licorice components. Tightly wound but still v...

Burghound: Note: from vines situated in En Orveaux planted in 1923, 1947, 1964 and 1979 totaling .56 ha. As is it in 2010, this is notably riper with spicy aromas of dark berry and viole...

Wine Spectator: Graceful and delicate, with tremendous purity, displaying a core of red raspberry coulis, cherry and pomegranate juice. Whiffs of white pepper and forest floor lend this som...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good deep red. Reticent aromas of black cherry, coffee and mocha. Fatter and riper than the Vieilles Vignes but a bit more liqueur-like and showing more oaky torrefaction. ...

Wine Spectator: The nose is marked by caramel, plum and macerated fruits, with more bass than the 1996. On the palate the fruit has a slightly candied quality, but its very concentrated. A bi...

Connoisseurs' Guide: Never noted for wines of swagger and opulence, winemaker Gary Farrell has once again shown a typically restrained hand here with a fruity, well-focused wine that is precise an...

Burghound: Discreet wood frames brooding and somber dark berry fruit aromas that are liberally laced with earth, humus, game and smoky nuances. There is excellent richness and intensity ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good medium red. Musky aromas of cherry, menthol, mocha and meat. Sweet and seamless but energetic too, with ripe acidity keeping the flavors under wraps today. Finishes wi...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Pinot Noir Rosella's jumps out of the glass with sensual aromatics that find a lovely counterpoint on the palate. It is a gorgeous, understated Pinot with notable cla...
