Black centre with red-black edge. Black fruit only, almost coal-black. Slight sweetness, a moment when it is slightly indistinct, then aromas build, wild flavours in a slightly nervy structure, lots here - wildcats in a sack, and time needed to tame them. From vines in le Grand Maupertui, next to Anne Gros. Over the wall it's Musigny, with Echezeaux on the other side. L&S (Dec 2011)

Deep ruby-red. Very closed nose hints at violet, bitter chocolate and licorice; showing the cabernet side of this grand cru today. Then surprisingly suave in texture, with strong minerality and harmonious acidity perking up the flavors of black fruits and menthol. Finishes long and powerful, with firm, granular tannins and lingering saline and licorice nuances. Rating: 91 - 94 Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Jan 2012)
Super supple and beautiful fruit, managing to combine sophistication with drinkability.David Way (www.winefriend.org) (Jan 2012)
