93+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2021 Fourchaume from Romain Bessin has a bit extra mid-palate dimension from theaddition of the old vines into the regular bottling this year. This is really an excellent wine, with the bouquet delivering scents of pear, lemon, that gently woodsy touch of Fourchaume, wet stone minerality, a touch of anise, dried flowers and a gently smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and very elegant in profile, with a lovely core of fruit, good soil undertow, bright acids and a long, focused and complex finish of exquisite balance. This too will be quite accessible out of the blocks, but I might be inclined to tuck it away in the cellar for a few years and let its secondary layers of complexity emerge. 2023-2050. (Nov/Dec 2022)"

91-93 points 'Outstanding' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "This too is very firmly reduced though once again there is really lovely underlying tension suffusing the bigger-bodied flavors that also possess a beguiling texture while delivering notably better depth and persistence on the balanced and youthfully austere finale. Good stuff and this too is worthy of your interest. . (Seoc 2022)"
