92 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "Les Lavrottes is a premier cru that I do not cross paths with too often. It lies just below the southern end of Bonnes-Mares, sandwiched between les Baudes and Gruenchers on the slope. The vines were younger before, which is why the Felettigs sold the grapes, but they celebrated their twentieth birthday in 2014 and the domaine decided that it was time to reclaim them for their lineup. The 2014 includes forty percent whole clusters and offers up a fine bouquet of red plums, cherries, cocoa, violets, a nice base of soil tones and a fine framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and impressively suave on the attack, with a sappy core, moderate tannins and very good length and grip on the focused finish. A lovely new addition to the portfolio chez Felettig. 2021-2050. (Mar/Apr 2016)"

91 points and 'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): " Background notes of wood are present on the super-fresh nose of plum, violet and soft spice hints. The medium weight flavors possess evident volume, power and mid-palate concentration while displaying a taut muscularity on the stony finish where a touch of bitter cherry arises. This is well-balanced and long but serious and will require at least a few years of bottle age first. Drink: 2022+. (Jan 2017)"
