93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Once again there is just enough wood influence to merit pointing out setting off the slightly riper aromas of essence of white orchard fruit, hazelnut and a whiff of smoky mineral reduction. As one would reasonably expect, there is more size, weight and power if not quite the same stony character to the bigger-bodied flavors that deliver excellent length on the balanced and lightly austere finale. While this should be more than capable of repaying a decade of keeping, it's not so backward that it couldn't be approached after only 3 to 4 years. Drink: 2029+. (Jun 2023)"

93 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "This stylish wine boasts aromas of citrus peel and nectarine with an accent of struck flint and yeasty lees. The texture is lively and fresh, but there is enough density on the palate to ensure a lingering finish. The grapes come from a 0.63-hectare parcel near the border with Genevrières; they are lightly crushed before pressing and fermented mainly in used casks where they will remain for at least two winters. Drinking Window: 2025-2045. (Nov 2022)"

93 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com) (2023).

91-93 points Jasper Morris MW (Inside Burgundy): "Slightly fuller lemon yellow. Attractive fruit on the nose, quite accessible. Nicely balances the oak. Just the right light note of gunflint reduction, plenty of oak but marries well with the fruit and the zesty acidity. Drink from 2026-2031. (Oct 2022)"
