96 points La Revue du Vin de France (2023)
93-95 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Bright clean fresh colour, the bouquet is concentrated but chiselled and backward. Crisp, concentrated pure white fruit, very Vaudésir, with excellent persistence. Finesse and class to finish. (Jul 2021)"
93-95 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru has an almost clinical bouquet, wonderfully defined, with superb salinity and mineralité. The focused palate is citric and tensile, and the salinity gets the saliva flowing. Classic Chablis through and through. This will be an exceptional Vaudésir. Drink: 2025-2050. (Oct 2021)"
94 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Nectarines, apricots and hay top the aromatic notes here. The Droins have parcels on both sides of the valley, but the warmer, northern side dominates the palate in this vintage. It is rounded and alluringly voluptuous with integrated lift and a long, vinous finish. 2022-33. (2021)"
92-94 points/'Sweet spot,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a 1.02 ha parcel). This is also aromatically cool and very pretty with its array of white and yellow fruit, broad range of spice elements and good Chablis typicity, all trimmed in oak hints. The wood influence also is present on the caressing and refined but decidedly intense flavors that culminate in a bone-dry finale. This too is very good. Drink: 2028+. (Oct 2021)"
