95 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "[$115 list] Fine purity, silkiness and harmony set the stage for aromas and flavors of flowers, cherry, toasty oak and spice. Features a minerally undercurrent, while the finish goes on for close to a minute. Best from 2022 through 2038. 150 cases imported. Highly Recommended. (4/30/20)"
92-95 points Fine Wine Review: "Silky, medium-light, long, deep, dark berry and plum fruits, Clearly from a ripe year, but pure pleasure. The usual Caillerets texture is not here (as was generally the case for the Caillerets from this vintage that I tasted), but very elegant. Around 25% whole cluster. (12/18/18)"
92 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2017 Volnay 1er Cru Les Caillerets Ancienne Cuvée Carnot is already extremely charming, bursting from the glass with a lavish bouquet of cassis, dried rose petals, coniferous forest floor and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple and satiny, with an elegantly textural attack, a nicely concentrated core of fruit and lively acids, concluding with a precise, vibrant finish. Drink: 2020-2037. (Apr 2019)"
