jamessuckling.com, 94 points: A cooler climat facing south along the combe above the village. This has an array of very attractive, ripe red cherries, plums and blackberries. Plenty of spices and an earthy edge, too. The palate has a smooth and supple...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: Initial aromas of earth and garlic blow off on the palate, but there are black cherry, black currant, violet and sandalwood notes that build to a long finish. Ripe and well-oaked, yet balanced and expressive. This red is...
Vinous, 93 points: (ST90-93 points) Good dark red-ruby. More red berries to go with the aromas of black cherry, pepper and spices, plus a sexy hint of blood peach. Captivating, gentle, broad wine with dark berry and cherry flavors accented...

Burghound, 93 points: (91-93) Generous wood and menthol influence does not enhance the distinctly earth and spicy aromas of various dark berries. On the plus side there is impressive size, weight and power to the broad-shouldered and...
Wine Spectator, 95 points: A vibrant, succulent red, this delivers intense flavors of red currant, wild cherry and violet, with undertones of stone and loam. Balanced and well-defined, showing a long, stone-infused finish. Best from 2021...
Decanter, 91 points: These 80 year old vines in Pommard have performed well in 2016. Aromas of ripe red fruits, game bird and rose petal precede a full-bodied, fine-grained wine with a serious chassis of rich tannins and an ample core of...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (91-93) The 2016 Volnay 1er Cru Taillepieds is 100% whole cluster and 30% new oak. This vineyard was not affected by the frost. It has a very intense blackberry and Morello cherry-scented bouquet with hints of iodine and...
