97 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "Glass-staining ruby. Exotically perfumed black and blue fruit, incense and candied licorice scents, along with mineral, olive and exotic spice overtones. Seamless and expansive on the palate, offering deeply concentrated yet lively blackberry, boysenberry, cherry-cola, salty olive and floral pastille flavors that show outstanding energy and mineral lift. Slow-building tannins grow on a strikingly long, focused finish that strongly echoes the licorice and mineral notes. Drink: 2028-2038. (Dec 2022)"

96 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Vinified as whole grapes, aged in barrels, Chaillot adds a little more density. Its great energy is a reference in the appellation. (2023)"
