93-95 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "When the Boillots’ previous source started to bottle his own wines in 2015, it was necessary to switch to another source which seems to be equally good. Rich deep purple black. This is certainly ripe, perhaps even a gamey quality. Freshens up in the glass. Huge fruit weight here, dark notes but actually a core of pure red fruit beneath. Strong but fine tannins, this is going to be quite impressive. (Oct 2021)"
94 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "The Boillot technique of fermenting the reds in cask has succeeded here. Enough fruit was sourced to produce a single cask, and despite the fact that it was new, it has produced a wine with a beautiful clarity of plummy, spicy fruit and plenty of tension to offset the richness of the year. The balance between the two leads to a lingering finish with depth and elegance. Drinking Window: 2025-2050. (Oct 2021)"
93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a <.34 ha parcel in Grand Maupertuis). A touch of menthol sits atop the aromas of mostly dark berries, earth and a hint of anise character. The attractively textured if not especially dense flavors possess both good energy and unusually good refinement while the youthfully austere finale displays fine length. This could use better depth, but more should develop with a few years of bottle age. Drink: 2030+. (Apr 2022)"
