95-98 points Jasper Morris MW (Inside Burgundy): "Slightly fuller lemon yellow, very intense bouquet with lots of class. There are some yellower notes within the fruit but essentially this is still classical Chevalier with its limestone bench character. The persistence is absolutely grand cru. This will make a beautiful bottle. 13.6% alcohol. (Oct 2021)"
95-97 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru has a taut, fresh and delineated bouquet with fine tension, touches of pressed white flower emerging with time in the glass. The palate is beautifully balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite powerful but showing more complexity and depth than others that I have tasted at other Domaines. Very harmonious and persistent on the finish. Just a superb and "complete" Chevalier-Montrachet. Closure: Diam. Drink: 2025-2055. (Dec 2021)"
93-95 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Here too there is just enough wood framing the cool and airy aromas of spicy green apple, rose petal, carnation and plenty of citrus nuances. There is almost painful intensity to the big-bodied flavors that exude so much minerality that it's akin to rolling small pebbles around in the mouth, all wrapped in a hugely persistent, cuts-like-a-knife finale. This too possesses excellent potential and is a Chevalier that is going to need at least some forbearance. Drink: 2030+. (Jun 2022)"
