91-93 points Neal Martin (Wine Advocate): "The 2016 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Folatieres was touched by the frost, one plot more affected than the other. It has a clean and pure bouquet with subtle scents of lychee, citrus peel and minerals, tight at first but opening up nicely. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, a slightly waxy texture, very focused with hints of peach skin and spice on the finish. This is a well-crafted Folatières that may in fact surpass the 2015. Drink: 2020-2032. (12/29/17)"

92 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2016 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru has a lovely bouquet with dried pineapple, linden and just a touch of lime cordial. Perhaps I would have liked a little more mineralité to come through with time. The palate is well balanced with a fresh line of acidity, a touch of sour lemon lending edginess and a chalky texture towards the linear but sustained finish. Excellent. Tasted at Flint Wines Domaine Dujac tasting in London. Drink: 2019-2029. (Mar 2019)"

90 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from Peux Bois and Folatières proper). Like the Morey villages, there is a whiff of the exotic present on the overtly floral aromas of white peach, melon and lychee. Otherwise there is good volume to the plump and round medium-bodied flavors that exhibit a subtle minerality on the nicely focused finale that offers acceptable depth and persistence. This isn't classic in style but it's appealing in its fashion. Drink: 2022+. (Jun 2019)"
