Score 91-93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2010
Good bright red. Complex, musky nose melds raspberry, clove, dried rose and herbs. Juicy, spicy and penetrating, with superb definition to the red berry and floral flavors. Still quite closed in on itself but really echoes on the long aftertaste. This comes across as less thick than the young 2008 Musigny but with at least as much verve on the back end.
