"Interestingly this is even spicier with its own very broad array of spice elements that seemingly change with each whiff of the markedly ripe nose. The ripeness carries over to the dense, serious and overtly powerful big-bodied and imposingly scaled flavors that also possess seemingly unlimited reserves of palate coating dry extract that impart a velvety texture but also buffer the very firm tannins on the massively persistent finish. This is a big wine even by the outsized standards of a great Clos de la Roche yet the balance is faultless. This should be great in time. Don’t Miss! 95-97 Points/Drink 2030+" - Allen Meadows, Burghound
"On average, 60-year-old vines. Very sumptuous. Extremely ripe and voluptuous. I am not given to female parallels but Sophia Loren popped into my head when I tasted this wine. Full on, fully developed and all washes over you. No teenage tantrums here! Great balance in the mouth and it feels so confident that you could surely drink it relatvely soon if you had no self control. A hedonist's delight. 19 Points/Drink 2018-2042" - Jancis Robinson
