92 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

In the historic 2016 vintage, even Xavier will tell you there wasn’t a whole lot he could do but get out of the way and let the wine speak for itself. As he told Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, “2016 was just like a dream. The best autumn I’ve ever seen.” The vintage has received a 99-point score, and its easy to understand why. All the CdPs I’ve tasted from 2016 are great. But with Xavier Vignon, the master always delivers a cut above the rest. This is a winner.
