Vinous: 92 Points
Bright, dark red. Aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, and menthol are complicated by a sexy musky quality. Boasts lovely mineral energy and definition in the mouth, as well as excellent depth of flavor and restrained sweetness. Seems higher in acidity than most of the Jadot '16s from the Cote de Beaune but also more complex. Finishes firm, even a bit muscular, but not hard, with serious ripe tannins.
Burghound: 91 Points
Notes of earth and the sauvage add breadth to the plum and various dark berry fruit aromas. The imposingly-scaled flavors possess outstanding power, intensity and muscle before concluding in a strikingly long, palate coating, austere and distinctly rustic finale. While this won't win any awards for refinement, it is textbook Vaucrains.
