95 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Floral flourishes, lemon curd, yuzu and crushed water crackers unfurl from the glass. The sizzling acidic tension is promptly met by supple mid-palate sap. Hazelnuts tack onto the gently tapering, sweet-fruited finish. Tempting now, this will only improve with time. Olivier aged 50% of the wine in barrels of two and three wines. (2025)"
92-94 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Three plots, on both sides of the valley. Vaudésir was the last to be picked, 9 days after Clos and Blanchot. Half has been ,made in wood and half in stainless steel. Backward but with a suggestion of intensity. Very greasy because of an oily layer which will disappear. Indeed, shaking the glass adds a bit of salinity. I think this will become very good once it has eaten the oil (which will happen). Particularly long aftertaste Drink from 2029-2036. Tasted Jul 2024."
91-94 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 3 parcels totaling .49 ha that come from both sides of the appellation; 50% wood). The nose is difficult to read as there are still residual lactic nuances along with ample wood toast. The palate impression is much more interesting with its sappy and caressing texture that is highly seductive while displaying a lovely sense of refinement on the compact, moderately dry and balanced finale. This should cleanup nicely and repay up to a decade of keeping. Drink: 2031+. (Oct 2024)"
