97 points Jeb Dunnuck: "I loved the 2020 Condrieu Clos Boucher from barrel, and it doesn't disappoint from bottle. Ripe white peach, caramelized orange, brioche, and a kiss of minerality all define this smoking good Condrieu, and while it's rich and textured, it stays light on its feet and has remarkable purity, as well as a beautiful sense of freshness on the palate. It's drinking brilliantly today yet will keep for 5-7 years, although I see no need to delay gratification. Drink 2024-2031 (Mar 2024)"

95 points James Suckling: "A wide spectrum of exotic fruit and flower aromas pulls you into this concentrated and finely nuanced Condrieu, which has a ravishing apricot flavor on the mid-palate, then a very long finish that’s simultaneously creamy and filigree. I love the touch of saltiness that lingers like an afterglow. From a 1.98 hectare plot just north of the tiny Chateau Grillet appellation. Drink or hold. (Apr 2022)"

93 points Decanter: "Spicy with savoury aromas on the nose. Nutmeg, cinnamon and ripe peachy stone fruit on the palate. Juicy and creamy with a soft texture and a delicate, freshly balanced finish. Drinking window 2023-2027 (Mar 2023)"
