93-96 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "An emperor would be pleased with the intensity of this purple robe. The fruit is the most concentrated to date, and picked at the perfect time. Heady, intense, perfectly judged raspberry. This is spectacular. Not over the top, ripe tannins, just the right point of acidity, and excellent persistence. Guillaume speaks of delicacy and I can see what he means despite the Boillot style which is too intense to be designated delicate. (Oct 2021)"

93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 25+ year old vines). An elegant, pure, ripe and airy nose combines notes of red and dark pinot, anise, violet and rose petal. The vibrant and lilting yet solidly concentrated medium-bodied flavors display excellent length on the saline-inflected, firm and impressively persistent finale. This is terrific and while it's certainly firm, there is so much supporting sap that it could be approached young if desired. Lovely juice. Drink: 2028+. (Apr 2022)"
