94 points Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France (La Revue du Vin de France): "Retour a la Terre, vinified and matured in earthenware jars, smiles at us with a tangy, sweet and crunchy frame at the same time. (2023)"

93 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "Notes of clear honey, freshly baked bread, orange blossom and waxy citrus fruits introduce the 2020 Viré-Clessé Retour à la Terre, a medium to full-bodied, ample and textural wine framed by racy acids and chalky structure. As readers may remember, this bottling derives from old vines growing in a clay-rich parcel whose grapes were vinified in clay amphora. Drink: 2023-2040. (Sep 2022)"
