89-92 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "The usual three plots yielding an acceptable 25-30hl/ha. Fine and pale colour, the bouquet is correct but discreet, while showing Samuel’s habitual finesse. Really quite steely on the palate with a little squeeze of citrus, and impeccable length. Another tribute to the brilliance of Samuel Billaud’s vinification. Drink from 2024-2027. (Jun 2022)"

91 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2021 Chablis Grands Terroirs comes from three parcels. This has fine definition and mineralité on the nose with scents of flint and smoke. The palate is fresh on the entry with a fine bead of acidity, crisp and precise with an effervescent finish. Recommended. Drink: 2023-2028. (Sep 2022)"

'Outstanding/Top Value'/89-91 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Moderate reduction pushes the fruit to the background though it seems reasonably clear that it's ripe. On the palate the medium-weight flavors are also impressively intense with solid volume and density, all wrapped in a markedly dry, complex and sneaky long finish. This fine effort is definitely quite primary and will need at least a few years to unwind. Drink: 2026+. (Oct 2022)"

90 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com) (2023).
