97 points Bettane & Desseauve Guide 2022: "2019 confirms the evolution of the style of the house and the perception of this cru which, without denying anything of the Corton origin, shows itself in a more tender light in a young, floral wine with delicate and subtle tannins. (2022)"

96 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Great soft texture, textured and deep, very full and integrated with a woody quality: the Clos des Cortons delivers slowly but is very profiled, backed by a large base of tasty tannins. (2022)"

93-96 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Very dense red purple, lively though, and holds up after the sensuality of Clos de Bèze. Stricter. Darker fruit, very good structure here, fills out the palate, dark raspberry, with slightly more severe tannins. Very good fruit acid balance. This works very well, and has a distinguished future. Lightly saline to finish. Tasted: November 2020."

93-95 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2019 Corton Clos des Cortons Faiveley Grand Cru comes from the 2.77-hectare monopole. This was actually quite closed on the nose compared with Faiveley’s Gevrey Grand Crus, coming across earthy and rather sullen at first, and opening with earthy/woodland aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and harmonious on the entry. The fine, lightly spiced finish reveals clove and touches of graphite. Nice persistence here. This holds a lot of promise. Drink: 2024-2048. (Dec 2020)"

93-95 points and 'Don't miss!' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Here too there is a mentholated top note to the much earthier aromas of poached plum, underbrush, red currant and touches of the sauvage. There is excellent verve to the equally broad-shouldered and muscular flavors that possess outstanding complexity on the tannic, serious and beautifully long finish that is a bit less austere than it usually is at this early juncture. This beautifully well-made effort will also require extended bottle age to reveal its full potential, but it should very much be worth the wait. Drink: 2039+. (Jan 2021)"

Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "‘You have to enjoy a robust wine but it’s not dry or tannic, it’s round and a little animal’ Broad, red, fresh – a very inviting nose – there’s an obvious clarity to this fruit. Composed but mouth-filling, faint herb in a super complexity. Wide, complex, almost a menthol suggestion in these compex flavours. Brilliant baby Corton. (Dec 2020)"
