“2019 could be the red Burgundy vintage of the century, and this hits the bullseye on the complexity that I'm looking for in expensive Burgundy." – Dave Sokolin

"2019 is a hedonistic vintage that will take its place alongside other exceptional recent years in Burgundy... If you love great Burgundy, you should think about securing some 2019s quickly. Given current pricing trends, they will never be cheaper than they are now." – Decanter
