Wine Spectator: Bold, rich and concentrated, this wine packs in lots of thick, complex, concentrated currant, black cherry, anise and cedar flavors that fan out on the finish. This is a big, ...

About this Wine: "Charming, forward and approachable despite its youth. Ripe berries, mocha, toasted malt, incense and jasmine on the nose and palate. The sweet, high-toned nose is followed by...

Burghound: Note: from 7 different parcels of 50+ year old vines that total 1.7 ha. This is also highly perfumed with a pronounced floral component dominating the other aromas that are co...

Wine Spectator: Subtle aromas of chocolate, berry and mineral follow through to a medium- to full-bodied palate, with very well integrated tannins and a long berry and fresh herb finish. Very...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Medium ruby. Liqueur-like aromas of kirsch and maraschino cherry, along with a note of coffee. Suave, minerally and rather reticent on the front half, then expands on the back...

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...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good medium red. Aromas of sour cherry, licorice, menthol and savory soil. Silky, juicy and intense but quite imploded and understated today. In fact, this is brutally clos...

Burghound: A fresh, pure and unusually elegant nose that is surprisingly high-toned features moderate amounts of earth on the otherwise largely red berry fruit aromas that are in keeping...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: ($180) Medium red. Complex nose melds red fruits, minerals, rose petal and game. Then dense and sweet in the mouth, combining an almost liqueur-like quality with lovely lift. ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Less minerally and more fruity than the Chassagne samples that preceded it, showing charming aromas of peach, fresh apricot, white flowers and vanilla. Sweet, fresh, well-del...

Wine Spectator: Tangy, focused, spicy and refreshing, with a line of acidity making the wine mouthwatering underneath flavors of lime, grapefruit and green apple. Tightly wound, this has the ...

Wine Spectator: Ripe and enticing, with mesquite, steeped plum, lightly mulled blackberry and bittersweet ganache notes all seamlessly layered and carrying through the charcoal-tinged finish....

Wine Enthusiast: Extremely bold and dark with exceedingly Brunello-like extravagance and opulence. Inky darkness and loads of aromatic momentum in the form of blackberry, cherry liqueur, spice...

Wine Spectator: A tight, linear style, with wild berry, cherry and herb notes around a mineral core. Firmly structured, with a sinewy profile and a dry finish. Best from 2013 through 2024. 22...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good bright, full red. High-toned aromas of peppery red fruits. Pliant, sweet and minerally, but with the wine's new oak component currently masking its underlying fruit. Ulti...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: As usual, from a combination of contract grapes and purchased wine (with the same sources here since 2003), the Camille Giroud 2008 Latricieres-Chambertin presents peat and bl...
