98 points Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2025 (La Revue du Vin de France): "The Perrières evokes star anise; a sensation of telluric force literally springs from the glass; a powerful wine, with prominent acidity and salinity, presenting beautiful bitters reminiscent of yellow lemon zest. (2025)"
95 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "Michel Bouzereau's superb Perrières boasts complex aromas of lemon peel, ripe apple, and nectarine fruit with hints of linden flowers, hazelnut, and smoke. The texture has a marvellous balance between substance and finesse and enough crisp acidity to carry this to a long, lush finish. The grapes are from two parcels totalling 0.46 hectares; 80% is in Dessus, and 20% is in Dessous. The stony limestone soils of this terroir bring tension and elegance that sets this wine apart. Drinking Window: 2025-2040. (5/30/23)"
91-95 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Mid lemon yellow. Power is immediately evident on the nose. Ripe orchard fruit with plenty of flesh on the palate. The oak shows a little more, both vanilla and biscuit, at the moment. So less together, lactic and buttery, but I would tip this to pull its back into balance. (Oct 2023)"
92-94 points/'Sweet Spot/Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .parcel measuring .47 ha). There is a vaguely Chablis-like character to the overtly wet stone-infused aromas of Granny Smith apple, quinine and plenty of citrus elements. There is fine volume to the concentrated and mineral-driven medium weight plus flavors that flash solid good power on the palate staining, balanced, youthfully austere and wonderfully persistent finish. This is terrific and a wine that is built to repay a decade plus of cellaring, perhaps even a bit more. This too is one to seriously consider. Drink: 2032+. (Jun 2024)"
92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Meursault Perrières 1er Cru has a typical Perrières bouquet with crushed rock/flint percolating through the veneer of slightly tropical fruit. It takes time to settle in the glass. The palate is harmonious with bright acidity, a much more elegant style of Perrières with a creamy finish that lingers in the mouth. That build in the mouth is deeply impressive, although it retains composure and finesse from start to finish. Drink: 2025-2045. (Jan 2024)"
