94 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "This 3.37 ha monopole sits on Premeaux rose limestone, which can be felt throughout the wine. The nose smells of crushed chalk mixed with mulberries, and the palate has a finely dry bite. Talc-like tannins cooperate with crunchy acidity to give a firm frame. Wait at least five to six years for this as there is a lot to unpack. (Jan 2025).
94 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Le Clos des Porrets is tighter and firmer, solid right through to the chalky flavors of its finish. (2026)"
92-94 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Racked to tank in October, to bottle in December. Deep purple. The bouquet is certainly a rich expression of pinot fruit without being over-ripe. Very full on the palate yet with energy through adequate acidity. Excellent balance and persistence. A fresh classic. (Nov 2024)"
91-93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Porrets-Saint-Georges 1er Cru was taken from the tank. This is pure and opulent on the nose, but there is a sense of control and delineation here. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe black fruit notes, touches of blueberry and raspberry coulis and just a hint of licorice toward the finish. Give this three or four years in bottle. Drink: 2027-2046. (Jan 2025)"
Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "(3.6-hectare monopole and the largest of the domaine. Maybe ‘Porrets’ was a field of pears…(?) Middle of the hill, really well exposed under the quarry – ‘it’s nearly 25% of our production. Lots of vine ages, of course – the youngest are more than 35 years old but the oldest are now about 120 years old.’) A narrow but deep nose – more cushioned in style at the base. The palate is linear, also you could say slightly strict vs the previous wines – with a chiselled structure but without anything scary from the tannins. I could drink it with pleasure today but it will also be great in 25 years too… (4/22/25)"
