90-93 points Fine Wine Review: " This is one estate where stems are used to the extent possible, but because of conditions in 2013, the only wines with whole clusters are the Savigny-Marconnets, -Serpentières, -Guettes, and Latricières-Chambertin. Alcoholic fermentations were quick, and malolactic fermentations were 'normal' (which, in my experience, is later here than in many other cellars). Alcohols are about 12.5%, and for the premiers crus, about 12.7-12.8%... While holding on to some of the other vintages allows them to improve and last so splendidly, the wines of this vintage are to drink young... The Latricières shows more depth, body, and dark fruit with good minerality. This wine shows more aging potential than the preceding ones."

92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a leased .3 ha parcel of 35+ year old vines). This too is notably floral with hints of exotic herbal tea, spice and plenty of Gevrey style earth on the varied dark berry fruit scents. There is an excellent sense of vibrancy and delineation to the linear and focused medium weight plus flavors that exhibit plenty of minerality on the impressively long, balanced and austere finale. This is a classically styled Latricières and will require a few years to flesh out. Note that this is unlikely to drink well young so patience will absolutely be required. Drink: 2025+. (Apr 2015)"
