92-95 points/'Sweet spot,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a 1.4 ha holding in Les Clos). Like the Grenouilles, there is enough wood to merit mentioning but not enough to overshadow the cool, airy and very fresh aromas of oyster shell, white flower and ocean breeze. The succulent yet powerful and delineated flavors brim with both minerality and dry extract, all wrapped in a driving bitter lemon-inflected and youthfully austere finale. This is a lovely combination of power and refinement that should amply repay a decade plus of cellaring. Drink: 2031+. (Oct 2022)"

93-94 points Sarah Marsh, MW (The World of Fine Wine): "From three parcels in Les Clos dating back to 1922. Rich and glossy, with density, volume, and a long, smoky, silex finish. There is succulence and subtlety as well as some elegance. 2028–35+. (Issue 79; 2023)"

92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2021 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has a clean and precise bouquet, flint and chalk filtering through the citrus fruit, gaining intensity as it opens in the glass, though I feel the Grenouilles has more sophistication. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, very harmonious, nicely poised with a dab of stem ginger and white pepper towards the finish that is resolutely classic in style. Very fine. Drink: 2024-2046. (Sep 2022)"
