Wine Spectator Review:
Rich, yet also bright and restrained, showing apple, yellow plum, lime, mineral and oak spice aromas and flavors. It has a linear profile, with intensity and terrific length. Best from 2010 through 2025.

Tanzer Review:
Smoky aromas of flinty silex and chicken broth in an awkward stage. Then sweeter than the basic Corton-Charlemagne bottling, at once more opulent and more closed. Can't match the '06 for grip or class but this boasts superb richness and smoky depth. Today I find this less pristine and less vibrant than the regular bottling, but it's also extremely unevolved, and longer and more powerful on the back end.
