92 points; 'Outstanding'; Burghound
Tasting note: This is also ripe but definitely fresher with lovely purity to the enveloping red pinot liqueur-like aromas that are trimmed in both spice and mineral nuances. The detailed, intense and stylish medium-bodied flavors brim with plenty of dry extract, all wrapped in an explosive, focused and lingering finish. A ripe but still classic Les Cras that is really quite classy.
