95 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "This comes from a relatively large and single 0.52 ha block in the center of the cru, sitting between Leflaive and Leroy. This vintage's edition is a head-turner. It is generously fragrant with aromas of sweet spice, honey, poached apple and fresh blooms. The palate saturates the taste buds with more of the same. Tingly acidity beautifully frames the medium body. (2023)"

91-94 points Jasper Morris MW (Inside Burgundy): "Pleasing mid lemon yellow. The bouquet shows a classic fruit, with a fine strict tension and some elegance to the fruit, with ripe greengage notes and good length. Fills out a little bit more at the back. Drink from 2026-2032. (Oct 2022)"

93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from Ez Folatières). An overtly spicy and ever-so-slightly riper aromas include a whisper of the exotic on the cool citrus, Asian-style tea with jasmine hints. The laser-like, intense and utterly delicious medium weight flavors also exude a borderline palpable minerality that adds a sense of lift to the bone-dry, youthfully austere and strikingly persistent finale. This is excellent and I particularly like the balance though note well that it's going to need at least a few years of keeping before it will be reasonably approachable. Drink: 2031+. (Jun 2023)"
