Burghound: Outstanding-This offers a step up in aromatic complexity with a layered and attractively pure and ripe red pinot fruit nose that is liberally laced with stone and earth touche...

Wine Spectator: This is brooding and burly, with blackberry and melted fig notes supported by licorice root and mulled spice hints. The broad, fleshy finish lets a toasty note hang on. Very s...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Medium red. Wild, musky aromas of smoke, leather and tobacco, with red fruits in the deep background. Then surprisingly tight and chewy in the mouth, in a distinctly masculi...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Girardin's 2009 Moulin-a-Vent La Bernadine is, to be sure, the most concentrated of his three wines from this vintage and appellation, but it is also the most marked by the te...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Savigny-les-Beaune shows off lovely inner perfume in its crushed berries, flowers and minerals in a gracious, feminine style. It is a beauty at this level. This is a ...

Burghound: As one would expect, this is notably more elegant but only a bit more complex with a relativley high-toned red pinot and cranberry fruit nose that introduces rich and full fla...

Wine Spectator: Lemon peel and floral aromas lead to a medium body, with fresh acidity and a minerally aftertaste. Viognier. Drink now. 600 cases made.
