Robert Parker - (95-97) Points

"The 2010 Clos St. Denis is downright explosive from the first taste. An exotic melange of dark cherries, plums, minerals and cloves are all supported by insistent underlying minerality. The wine continues to grow in the glass, as layers of flavor fill out its broad-shouldered frame nicely. Blackberries, cassis, menthol and licorice flow through to the textured finish. This is a breathtaking effort. It is also a wine for the very patient."


Antonio Galloni - 95 Points

"The 2010 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru offers plenty of dark berry fruit, yet there is more delineation and freshness compared directly with the Mazis from Dugat-Py that is poured in tandem. The palate is beautifully poised with a firm backbone indicative more of Clos Saint-Denis than Clos de la Roche. Plenty of black fruit, precise, a bit "blocky" at first, but it doesn't take much aeration before it develops the clarity and precision you expect from this renowned vineyard and producer. Maybe keep another couple of years? Tasted blind at the Wallace brothers' Xmas dinner."
