Vinous (91+)(a merlot/sangiovese blend) Saturated black-ruby. Typical Siepi nose of black plum, black pepper, espresso and vanilla-caramel oak. More dark chocolate and coffee in the mouth, with a sweetening influence of ripe black cherry. Fat, layered and finely tannic. A bit more acid spine might have given this more detail, but it ranks as one of the more refined Siepis I remember at a similar stage of development. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (92-95)(a blend of 64% cabernet sauvignon, 32% merlot, 3% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot) Bright ruby-red. Aromatic nose combines blackberry, violet and licorice.

Vinous - Josh Raynolds (92-94)Deep, saturated ruby. Pungent, spicy aromas of cassis, blackberry, leather, tobacco and green Chartreuse. Very rich, dense and chewy, offering a powerful dark fruit and wild game character complicated by tobacco and licorice root. As sweet and lush as this is, it's solidly framed by powerful tannins. This has serious extract and impressive muscle, finishing on a note of hot asphalt. |

The Paul Reitz Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2004 hails from the illustrious Côte de Nuits region in Burgundy, France- a realm revered for its premium red wines. With decades of viticultural tradition, it is known that well-established producer, Paul Reitz, skilfully nurtures the Pinot Noir grapes employed in this grand cru. This 2004 vintage, showcases the exceptional character of this iconic terroir. Exhibiting aromatic nuances of ripe red fruits, spice, earth and a whisper of oak, it elegantly entwines power and finesse. Its ageing potential is laudable, thanks to the well-structured tannins and harmonious acidity. Strict adherence to traditional wine-making methods, such as manual harvesting and oak barrel ageing, emphasise the vinous pedigree of the Paul Reitz Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2004. This wine is a testament to the expertise of Paul Reitz and the ineffable charm of the Clos de Vougeot grand cru appellation. |

Wine Spectator (95)This is a beauty, with the singed apple wood and juniper notes fully melded with the core of lush raspberry and blackberry confiture flavors. The edges are rounded off but the spine still drives through. Ends with graphite and ganache accents and a mouthwatering hint. |

Wine Spectator (96)A real powerhouse, with muscular layers of fig and black currant compote, backed by braised beef, chestnut, tobacco and tar flavors. The long, mesquite-filled finish lets additional bittersweet cocoa and dark fruit notes linger, with lots of garrigue. Best from 2008 through 2025. 5,000 cases made. -JM |

James Suckling (95)Set within one of the most famous bottles with its distinctive floral decorations, this is looking very bright and tidy in 2004 with a wealth of deep-set complexity on the nose: citrus peel and pith, honey and grilled nuts. The palate's authoritative, very powerful and savory, displaying a long list of commanding flavors such as cashew nuts, almonds, brioche and stone fruits to close. A majestic Champagne. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (93+)Deep medium red. Subtly complex aromas of mulberry, red cherry, toffee, caramel, iron and flowers. A bit narrow on entry, then expands in the middle palate without any loss of focus. A very firmly built, vibrant and classy 2004 with a tight mineral core and ineffable spice character. This is by far the most backward 2004 in the Moueix portfolio. Finishes with terrific aromatic persistence and subtlety. This will surely evolve in the direction of toffee and truffle and may ultimately merit an even higher rating. |

Vinous (97)The 2004 Clos des Goisses is dense and powerful in the glass, with all of the pure, unbridled energy that has always been such a signature here. Hints of lemon peel, mint, spice and crushed rocks emerge with time in the glass, but, despite its considerable beauty and unquestioned pedigree, the 2004 is frankly years away from delivering the full Clos des Goisses experience. Disgorged February 2013. |
