95 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Picked on the first day of harvest, these three parcels sit on the sunny side. Moreover, they sit on steep slopes, allowing excellent sun exposure. Yet they also sit right in the Kimmeridgian clays, so they produce a wine that shows classic Chablis restraint. Scents of peach fuzz, lemon blossom, fleur de sel, sea shells and brie create a whirlwind of complexity. Didier loves how well this wine ages, so don't be impatient. (2025)"

92-95 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): " Pale in colour but very vinous on the nose, excellent grip. A chalky grip behind the sunshine. Salinity here more than in the Bougros, with an extra wave of intense flavour, still with a bit of the confit de citron which denotes the sunshine. (Jun 2024)"

94+ points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The domaine’s 2023 version of Vaudésir is also superb. The wine’s aromatic constellation is vibrant and complex, delivering a spread of lime, pear, chalky minerality, lime peel, spring flowers and a topnote of anise. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and mineral-driven in personality, with a great core of fruit, racy acids and outstanding balance on the long, precise finish. 2032-2075. (Jan/Feb 2025)"

93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from two separate parcels of vines, the larger of which is in the heart of the "amphitheater" from which the finest examples of Vaudésir originate). There is a vaguely exotic quality to the aromas of lemongrass, passion fruit, apple and whiffs of algae and oyster shell. The notably finer though not nearly as powerful middle weight flavors possess evident minerality on the super-sleek, balanced and impressively persistent finish. This borderline delicate effort also needs to develop better depth but the development potential seems quite clear. Drink: 2031+. (Oct 2025)"

93 points Bettane & Desseauve Guide (2026).

92 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "[$207 list] Apple, green plum and briny seashore notes are allied with a rich texture in this supple white. There’s a nice underlying chalkiness. Shows fine balance and length. Drink now through 2033. 50 cases imported. (9/29/25)"
