97 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Les Taillepieds is a pedigree wine of magnificent olfactory elegance. Fine, restrained, this lofty wine expresses the great finesse of this appellation through a silky touch. Its fine, tight tannic structure indicates that it is destined for long ageing, a wine of great nobility of aroma and body. (2025)"
96 points Bettane & Desseauve Guide (2025).
95 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "This is bold and forward on the nose with Marasca cherries, mulberries, tea leaves and fine spice. The tannins offer light grip and the acidity races down the back palate. While aromatically open, this is tightly coiled and will benefit from time in the cellar. The final, lasting impression is one of delicious, savory spices. (2024).

92-95 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Made from 80 year old vines, vinified with all the stems. A richer purple. The bouquet is stunning, offering intensity with elegance. The core of ripe fruit plus the additional perfume from whole bunches. A very fine graceful texture with tensile strength. (Oct 2023)"
92-95 points/'Sweet spot/Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a 1.51 ha holding of <80-year-old vines; 100% whole clusters). Discreet wood can be found on the equally floral-suffused aromas of ripe yet cool red berries, kirsch and rose petal. The wonderfully sleek, detailed and overtly mineral-driven medium weight flavors are akin to rolling a small pebble around in the mouth on the bitter pit fruit-inflected finish that goes on and on. I very much like the sophisticated texture and the excellent development potential. Drink: 2034+ (Apr 2024)"
94 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "This iconic wine of the de Montille portfolio has an exquisitely complex aroma of silky mulberry fruit with suggestions of earth, smoke, and a savoury, gamey edge. The feel is tannic and dense, with impressive length and the energy to balance the rich flavours and textures. The grapes come from the family's two parcels that total more than 1.5 hectares. In 2022, all the grapes were fermented as whole clusters with a firm extraction and ageing in a cask (30% new). Drinking Window: 2025-2050. (5/30/23)"
