94 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Nuance but reserved, Mont de Milieu offers a very beautiful scale and softness of texture, and expresses itself without make-up even in its very graceful length. (2023)"
91-94 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Made from four plots from top to bottom of Mont de Milieu, all at the Chablis end, using a mix of some demi-muid barrels and stainless steel. Some ripe plums are evident on the nose but all has been well harnessed so nothing is too exotic. Racy acidity behind, a fruit which develops well right through to the back of the palate and an excellent acid balance. Very persistent. (Jul 2021)"
93 points James Suckling: "This is exactly what we expect a Chablis 1er Cru to be. It’s chalky and well structured, but bright and refreshing, the winemaking taking a back-seat to the oyster-shell and fresh lemon-peel character. Delightful balance and purity at the finish. Drink or hold. (9/21/22)"
91-93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 4 different parcels of 35+ year old vines). There is a suggestion of the exotic to the aromas of white peach, passion fruit, quinine and citrus confit scents. The super-sleek and gorgeously textured medium-bodied flavors brim with dry extract on the round and caressing but quite punchy, clean and refreshingly dry finale. This too is going to require at least some restraint. Drink: 2028+. (Oct 2021)"
