Score: 93 | October 28, 2020 | Wine Spectator

Polished and ripe, with alluring cassis and mulled plum fruit flavors gliding atop a polished structure, with subtle alder, violet and loam accents filtering through as well. A stylish Cabernet, with some latent depth and grip in reserve. Best from 2021 through 2031. — JM

From dry-farmed, century-old vines, this wine is richly ripe in plum and black cherry, with a hot and heavy presence tempered by a lift of acidity. Dusty tannin and tobacco ride out the finish. 

Score: 93 | October 1, 2020 | Wine Enthusiast

This distinctive and complex wine offers a bouquet of dark fruit, bay leaf and black tea that are joined in the flavors by black cherry and clove. Excellent depth of flavor, full body and layering add to its quality and interest. Best through 2024.

With an inviting nose of butterscotch and sea air, this lengthy and broadly concentrated wine is brimming in lush flavors of peach and pineapple. The juicy richness persists and is lifted by complementary acidity and a wealth of toasted oak. 

Score: 91 | October 1, 2020 | Wine Enthusiast

Luscious, layered and rich in butterscotch, toast and nutmeg, this vineyard designate is influenced by its cool-climate provenance in lasting acidity and a twist of mineral, which helps to balance the bolder flavors of mango and baked pear

Score: 93 | October 1, 2020 | Wine Enthusiast

Juicy in pear, pineapple and peach, this is a soft, rounded wine, defined in richness, with balance and length. The famous vineyard's Goldridge soils help to contribute a softness to the wine alongside subtle baking spice and toasted oak. -Virginie Boone

Score: 95 | June 26, 2019 | Decanter

This is a first release from Jean-Claude Boisset, bottled early to preserve its freshness and perfume. Sourced from a parcel of 45-year-old vines and fermented with 50% whole bunches, it has earthy, forest floor aromas with notes of fresh tobacco and pepper spice. A tame and approachable Corton with fine, caressing tannins.

Score: 90 | July 4, 2018 | Planet Grape

Creamy, bright and fresh with notes of lemon drop, strawberry ice cream, watermelon and honeydew.
